andengine

I know this question has been asked many times before and might seem to be a conglomeration of several questions, but I feel that it is relevant and important to many developers; I need to create a background music Service that can run across multiple activities for my Android game that ends when the application is terminated and pauses in all of the following circumstances: A certain Activity that has its own music is started. (Resume when this Activity finishes. This happens to be an AndEngine activity.) The home screen is pressed and the app is backgrounded, or the application is terminated

I searched in a number of forums and it seems to be a common question. However i couldnt find a solution. I didnt do anything crazy so it seems stange that this happens. @Override protected Scene onCreateScene() { Scene s = new Scene(); PhysicsWorld mWorld=new PhysicsWorld(new Vector2(0, SensorManager.GRAVITY_EARTH),true); s.registerUpdateHandler(mWorld); final Sprite eliSprite = new Sprite(400, 240, james_walking[3], getVertexBufferObjectManager()); eliSprite.setScale(0.5f); s.attachChild(eliSprite); s.setTouchAreaBindingOnActionDownEnabled(true); return s; } I dont have much more to say

What is maximum size of texture that should be used in andengine. I used this.diamondTexture = new Texture(2048, 512, TextureOptions.BILINEAR_PREMULTIPLYALPHA); When loading in device(HTC G1 T-Mobile) it shows blank screen. After reducing the image size and when replacing the above line with this this.diamondTexture = new Texture(1024, 512, TextureOptions.BILINEAR_PREMULTIPLYALPHA); Its running . Whats the problem ? Common approach - texture max size is 1024x1024. Some hi-end devices can handle 2048x2048 textures, but it`s better to use 1024x1024 size if you want your application to run on

I want to make a game using Tiled Map Editor and I want to move the character around using a D-Pad for moving the character So I'm wondering which Engine would be better AndEngine or Cocos2d Keep in mind i'm a beginner at this so I'd like to stare at a lot of tutorials. :-D Thanks Both engines supprot loading TMX map quite easy and input from D-PAD. So if your requirements are only that, there is no big difference. Just use what you familiar with. vgonisanz Cocos2d-android don´t have support anymore. You must use cocos2d-x, cross-plataform, use JNI to use c++ code. More info HERE . Cocos2d-x

I am trying to almost 2 days to add AndEngine to Android Studio but unable to do so. I tried the following two methods, neither worked. 1st Try I download the AndEngine code from GitHub Link -- this is NOT a Gradle Project and tried to add it to my Android Studio build.gradle and settings.gradle, but i get this error, my screenshot: https://postimg.cc/image/5mcvpvsar/ (I think I am getting this error because AndEngine is not a gradle project - HOW TO MAKE IT A GRADLE PROJECT??) 2nd Try I have also tried adding the andengine.jar (file I just googled for) in /libs folder and do right-click -->
