hm, no it doesn’t help :frowning:

build-log.txt (14.1 KB)

UPD: maybe it’s something on their side because I don’t get why it tries to use GMA if I use only unity ads itself

#122

Not sure but it seems like this fix helped:

I updated the extension with the latest Android SDK and it works fine now (without aaptExtraPackages)

@AGulev
I have been using 3.7.2 for a while, and was hoping to update to 4.x.

I see the breaking changes in the callback, and was hoping you could tell me something: when there are errors, such as EVENT_SDK_ERROR, is message.placement_id still available? Looking at the new Java code, I’m not sure.

Previously I was able to detect when a placement failed to load or was unavailable, and want to ensure I can still do that. In particular, this is handy for rewarded video ads, so I can update the GUI button to show an error state when necessary.

It totaly makes sense. I added placement_id in the latest release https://github.com/AGulev/DefVideoAds/releases/tag/4.0.5

Thank you for the quick update! I’ll hopefully be able to test the new version later today.

Gave this a spin now and it spits back this when bundling for Android:

/defunityads/src/java/com/agulev/defunityads/DefUnityAdsJNI.java
	Line 392: local variable placementId is accessed from within inner class; needs to be declared final
                    sendSimpleMessage(MSG_BANNER, EVENT_SDK_ERROR, "code", code,"error", errorInfo.errorMessage, "placement_id", placementId);
                                                                                                                             ^

Bundled fine for iOS though.

hm, sorry for that. This is strange I can build it without any issues (as well as CI). ppbly you use older Defold version or something like that.
Pls check the latest version

Very probably - I’m still on 1.2.184. Thanks for looking at this so quickly, superstar!

Going to try bundling again, will report back. Update: Built like a dream. :ok_hand:

The latest version works great for me so far. Releasing to production, so hopefully no hidden issues.

I am 98% confident that I updated my callback function properly :smile:

A post was merged into an existing topic: Defold 1.2.188 has been released

Unity SDK update to version 4.0.0

Attention deprecated API methods removed

  • is_ready() - method deprecated in 3.4.0 and removed now;
  • get_placement_state() - method deprecated in 3.4.0 and removed now;
  • optional parameter enable_per_placement_load for initialize()- now it’s always true by default.

#135

looking for more info on it.. ..

#136

you are looking for more info about what? I don’t get what the question is.

#137

On Android, in landscape orientation, ads immediately rotate to portrait and then back to landscape. Do you know why this happens?
Video attached - it’s very short so you may have to watch it a few times.

#138

I don’t know, to be honest.
Is it the same when you watch real ads (not test ads)?

#139

Yes the same.

#140

The next step is to check their test app to make sure it works fine before any investigations in the NE itself.

#141

Do you mean Ad Testing for Unity Ads ?
That app is portrait and doesn’t seem to respond to device orientation

#142

I modified the sample app within https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/unity-ads-android to be landscape, and it shows the same behaviour, so I guess this isn’t an issue.
Would be reassured if I could find another landscape game that implements Unity Ads, so I could see this ‘in the wild’.
