            How can I use the Android String Translation in a LibGDX Project?
            Asked 2022-Mar-23 at 23:10

            I'm trying to use the Android String Resources for an LibGDX Project.

            Unfortunately, I can only access the getString()-Method and the R class from the android package.

            What can I do to access them from also the core package?

            Or is it even better to use another solution for translation files?

            ANSWER

            Answered 2022-Mar-23 at 23:10

            Three different paths you can take:

            1. Merge your core module code into the android module and simply don't use core. The downside with doing this is you will lose the ability to easily test on your desktop (it's faster to compile a desktop build for rapidly testing code changes), and you lose the ability to port to other platforms like desktop and iOS.

            2. Use libGDX's localization classes to manage your strings in different languages, instead of Android resources. There are instructions on how to use it here. This is the easiest solution, and it keeps it cross-platform.

            3. Maybe you could write some kind of Gradle task that extracts your String IDs from the generated R class each time you build your Android module, and makes copies of them available in a Java class in your core module, and uses them to retrieve Strings from the XML through some kind of interface. This is the super difficult solution.

            Noob question using legacy LWJGL with canvas
            Asked 2022-Mar-23 at 00:25

            Just installed libGDX & android studio yesterday. My boss wants to use libGDX & javaFX (for UI) together in a project.

            My assumptions: It sounds like I can do that by using a canvas. LWJGL3 does not support a canvas backend. So i need to use the legacy LWJGL2

            My question: How in an existing project do I add legacy support and the libraries?

            There are instructions here for migrating from lwjgl2 to lwjgl3, so you can follow them in reverse.

            Basically, change your module's dependency from com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-backend-lwjgl3 to com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-backend-lwjgl and change your launcher class to use LwjglApplication instead of Lwjgl3Application. The associated application configuration class works a bit differently, too. It uses public fields instead of setter methods.

            How to separate ads View from Game View?

            Currently I have a game in libgdx that show ads on top of the game layout. However, as you can notice, it hides part of the top of the screen, where the score is shown.

            Question: How can I make the ads show ABOVE the game view/screen, so it doesnt overlap/hides anything from the game? I want the screens to be as shown in the next picture.

            To avoid this overlapping effect using a RelativeLayout you can create an Ad Container (eg: a RelativeLayout Container) to be on the top of the screen by using the RelativeLayout.ALIGN_PARENT_TOP rule and add the GameView below of the Ad Container using the RelativeLayout.BELOW rule. Finally add your AdView as a child of the above Ad Container.

            Removing the proxy and host from Netbeans
            Asked 2022-Jan-12 at 09:52

            I know this questions is not related to programming but I can't find the root problem of my proxy/host.

            Ok, let me explain, I am in China, so I have to make use of a VPN. The software is called SSTap and because of that reason I called the host in the same way.

            For the project I am trying to make I am using LibGDX and gradle ofc.

            After not being able to settle a proxy I removed it, as shown in the picture it is selected as "no proxy" and there are no proxy settings, and down in the output I am getting the warning.

            Is there another place to totally remove the host?

            I am using "Product Version: Apache NetBeans IDE 12.3"

            Thanks in advance I will write down more questions

            ReEdit part:

            Sorry I thought it was loaded

            The warning is: Warning: Failed to parse host SSTap

            The way I configure the host/proxy was in a pop-up window that have not appeared anymore and I am unable to find it after setting the host again, the only way that I know to see the host is by Tools -> Options -> General Tab, the picture is not complete but that is the path to get there

            I am having difficulties to load the picture, I am in China and I am using a VPN, so it is quite hard to visualize it, since I created the account yesterday I am unable to post pictures and instead they are added by links automatically

            Event handling in libgdx not working as expected
            Asked 2022-Jan-11 at 06:29

            I've been learning about libgdx recently. In the process of following the instructions on their libgdx wiki I ran into some problems.

            Specifically in the GameScreen class at the 99th line I changed the code inside so that it goes back to the previous screen (MainMenuScreen class) and yes you see when the mouse is pressed it worked (I mean go back to the screen before ) but a very very short time after, the screen AUTOMATICALLY switches to the GameScreen class (like I click the mouse once but it makes me 1 more redundant task). I guess when I click on the GameScreen screen it did the code in the if statement on line 99 to go to MainMenuScreen screen. In that screen at line 32 I guess it was true after I got to this screen because when I change the key is listened then it works fine (only converts once). I was intending to try implementing InputProcessor on each screen class but now I'm avoiding it for some reason. Can someone give me some advice recommend.Thank you

            Here is the source code for the MainMenuScreen class.

            Answered 2022-Jan-11 at 06:29

            Your analysis of the problem seems correct to me. The method Gdx.input.isTouched() will immediately return true, if the screen is still being touched after you changed to the main menu.

            Also you the solution that you already tried seems correct:

            I was intending to try implementing InputProcessor on each screen class

            When using an InputProcessor you will get one event (the method call to touchDown or touchUp) when the screen is touched, and don't need to pull the touch event using the isTouched method.

            A problem when implementing InputProcessor with both classes probably is, that you can only set one to be the input processor of the game using the method Gdx.input.setInputProcessor. (When setting the second input processor, the first one is removed).
            A solution to this problem is the InputMultiplexer. You can add this multiplexer as the input processor of the game (using Gdx.input.setInputProcessor(multiplexer)) and then add your input processors (the main menu and game objects) to this multiplexer: multiplexer.addProcessor(mainMenu) or ((InputMultiplexer) Gdx.input.getInputProcessor()).addProcessor(game).

            This way you can handle touch events instead of pulling the touched state in both of your classes.

            Libgdx Rendering Bitmap font to pixmap texture causes extremely slow rendering

The Labels work fine but drawing ~20 of them on the screen at once drops the frame rate by 10-15 frames, resulting in noticeably poor rendering while dragging.

            I'm attempting to avoid the Labels by pre-drawing the text to textures, and rendering the textures as scene2d Image actors. I'm creating the texture using the code below:

            I have not tested this, but I think you can enable culling for the whole Stage by setting its root view to use a cullingArea matching the world width and height of the viewport. I would do this in resize after updating the Stage Viewport just in case the update affects the world width and height of the viewport.

            One way you can achieve a fog-of-war effect is by keeping a Framebuffer that you write transparent pixels to, and then draw that buffer ontop of your game view:

            The steps are more or less:

            1. Draw game

            2. Update fog-of-war buffer

            If you don't qualify the file reference then it assumes the root folder to be assets in the android project as works with everything.

            Howeover, you can get the FileHandle of files in the core project with Gdx.files.internal("data/... . (where data is a folder in core/assets which should be where yours are)

            You can switch between how TmxMapLoader resolves the files, to delegate the FileResolver of TmxMapLoader to this internal handler would be.

            new TmxMapHolder(new InternalFileHandleResolver()) which delegates to the internal storage location.
