iPhone testing

Excellent Francois!

Quote from Francois

This wont be a problem for us : I was planning anyway to have MMF create an XCode projectr that you copy on the Mac and compile there.
I have not taken a decision on wether or not I allow people to see the source code.

That is great news!!

Yet another reason to love Clickteam...

They won't be able to tell that an app was made in mmf just by looking at the code cause of Clickteam's awesomeness!

I am excited about the possibilities of an iPhone/Touch exporting! That "cross-compiler" limitation freaked me out for a second. I've got a Mac and iPhone just waiting to take full advantage of MMF!

My hope is to have an iPhone/Touch be able to communicate through the network (wifi) with my MMF application on my PC... like some type of controller.

time to start saving for a mac mini then. or just use my credit card and have more debt xD.

Still I wonder if with iPhone release there will be release of Multitouch object (or touch object) for Mobile, Blackberry and PC runtimes.

Wow, I was actually just about to order a Objective-C book not 2 minutes away from doing a google search with MMF2 and iPhone (to see if a java export can possibly be run in Mobile Safari? Maybe someone can answer that? thx!). I'm seriously considering iPhone development (just downloaded the iphone sdk to play around with), and seeing this, (been using MMF2 for years now), just took that much stress of learning a new language off my back.

Any idea of when this may be released? You said still in Alpha. If you need any lucky testers for this, I am willing to sign up! I just got a mac the other day, still using MMF2 everyday on the pc. I'd love to test this! I'm definetly going to hold off on that book purchase until after I try this, even if it is months away. It'll give me time to come up with some ideas.

Thank you!

just a tip to everybody, perhaps you got a friend using a mac, and could borrow it for compiling. Then you won't have to buy one

Is it just for the iPhone? Or can it be used for the iPod touch and the new iPad?

I didn't read all 7 pages so I apologies if this has already been answered.

Yeah it works for all 3. I'm buying a mac mini and iPod touch just for this. Hopefully I'll be set for the summer.

yes sir, seems like iphone and ipod touch app can be tested on ipad, but the ipad thing should come a bit later.

Francois think the Iphone exporter is raising passions among developers of MMF and those who have never used the product. I'm sure this will boost sales of MMF 2!!!

I'm seeing some new faces with SWF exporter already..

It's no surprise really. I spent a few years creating games in TGF/CnC/MMF back in the late 90s/early 00's and it got to the stage where flash was really starting to take over.

I did try learning flash but it seemed so awkward compared to what I could do in the clickteam products.

Now years later, the flash exporter and iphone exporter has really bought my interest back in a more serious view of producing games.

Francois my demo is ready in landscape resolution for iphone and ipod touch.

As you send it?

Do you still need some games to test with Francois?

Ready Francois my first demo in PM...

For those who not know, Adobe has dropped the development of the Flash > iPhone exporter over the objective C issue. They are shifting their focus now on Android etc.

Yay! a real mobile OS. Anyone tried the Ubuntu mobile version yet?
