Published my first game on android. I'm haven't been using click products for a while but with all this android and ouya .. I think I am back in the game. Hey Danny thanks for the tool bro. it was very helpful.
what did you do that with c++? just wondering. Anyways It works great.

Hey, no problem, glad it's been of good use for the community. I developed it in MMF2

Nice tool Danny, good job This is the sort of awful task I loathe doing when developing, thanks for taking the sting out of it!

Just wondering what does it mean when the I get this error:

Signing key keystore not found

Danny,

Thank you for this useful tool. I was having trouble generating a keystore until I found this and it made the process easy.

Hey no problem.

Update now available, please refer to the first post in this thread (updated).

Awesome. You should really put a link to it here in your 'preparing for android' post: Please login to see this link.

Hey Danny, just tried it and I can't seem to get it to work. No error, I just can't find the file it generates. I filled in all of the fields, and used a 6 char alias, I click build, a cmd box pops up for a sec, then I get a grey box with this message:

-genkey -v -keystore C:\Games\MMF2 Projects\SCat\Keystore\kstore.keystore
-alias ggames -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048
-validity 10000
-dname "CN=Glade Games,OU=Games,O=Games Creators,L=Australia,S=South Australia,C=AU" -storepass xxxxx -keypass xxxxx

Any idea's why I can't find a keystore file in the designated folder, even though I didn't see any errors?

Thanks in advance

Hey Simflare,

Strange, did you run it in Administrator mode? Right-Click, Run as Administrator? It does write to the c:\ drive by default which is typically blocked by Windows unless run in Administrator mode. Usually, writing to the root of C:\ isn't standard practice but there was a reason why I did it like this and I can't for the life remember what the reason was.

Try it in Admin mode and let me know if that works... it should do, as even though I changed the visuals, I never changed any code that builds the keygen file and no issues were reported beforehand.

*EDIT*: I just saw you tried creating the file in a folder/sub-folder. There was a reason, I can't remember what it is now, but you have to write it directly to c:\myfile.keystore

Once you've generated the KeyFile, you can then move it to any destination you wish.

Simflare · February 16, 2014 at 12:14 PM

YES! That worked! Thank you Danny! This is so much easier than trying to understand all of the Google Documentation, thank you so much! Now to test with the file

Simflare · February 16, 2014 at 12:24 PM

Hey just to clarify - if I publish the apk file out of Fusion WITH that keystore file, is that all I need in terms of certificates and signing? Do I just go release it then, from that point?

Danny · February 16, 2014 at 1:04 PM

Yes, once you have successfully compiled from Fusion 2.5 (Android) with your keystore, it will get encrypted into your final APK. Once the APK is built in release mode, you're free to do whatever you want with it then.

This would not in someway illegal?

Danny · March 20, 2014 at 9:36 AM

I'm sorry? Illegal?

Player · March 20, 2014 at 9:39 AM

Perfectly legal. It's not a keygen if that's what you thought.

Fernando · March 20, 2014 at 2:05 PM

Is not illegal, since a repack process does require a re-signed of the apk with your own certificate.

even unsigned application are really signed with a debug certificate.

An unsigned application cannot be installed.

I'm having the same issue as the above on my end. It just won't build the file? Any Help Danny would be great. It's builds, but I cant find the file.

Danny · July 7, 2014 at 10:55 AM

Try writing it to C:\ only John boy... C:\app.keystore - you may need to run in administrator mode

KLiK-iT · July 7, 2014 at 12:35 PM

Thanks Danny. I did what you said and it worked.

harib · July 24, 2014 at 12:42 AM

Please help
I have installed Keystore and I can not see any Android icon in the MMF 2.5 application properties.
Also I have no option of saving or exporting the file to Android format.
