Unity Ads

Hey,

Would be great to have a set of actions for Unity Ads:

np, I'll be adding allowPrecache, isInitialized, isShowing and isSupported actions as well as a separate isReady/show ad action when I get time.

Hi LampRabbit

did you ever do the other actions you mentioned above? i could really use them now. especially the isInitialized, because i noticed if there is a slow internet connection while unity ads are being initialized, it can almost crash your game if the user tries to play it at the same time they are being initialized.

so i would like to be able to check if in fact they are initialiezed before the user can play.

cheers.

Check out the post by cloud03

http://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?topic=8311.0

What I do is stop inputs and then show the ad with the engine being paused. Then when the engine is unpaused I wait a fraction of time and then turn inputs back on.

What I do is stop inputs and then show the ad with the engine being paused. Then when the engine is unpaused I wait a fraction of time and then turn inputs back on.

could i ask one more favor? do you know how i check if the user actually finished watching the video ad? because as it is now in my game, the user watches the vid (using the 2 actions we have available init and show) and then once finished i give the reward on the next state. I do it this way because i don't know how to set up the reward system in unity ads.

but...my problem is, if the user (on ios) hits the home button on ipad/iphone etc while the ad is playing and then starts the app straight back up, they cut the ad off and then get the reward without actually watching it. I just need to do a quick check to see if they actually finished the ad so i can then proceed to give the reward if they did, if not then i dont.

i found this onVideoCompleted(String itemKey, boolean skipped) but i dont know how to implement it.

Thanks in advance for your help.

i think this is the code for it in bold:


    public static void ShowAd (string zone = null, bool pauseGameDuringAd = true)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(zone)) zone = null;
     
        ShowOptions options = new ShowOptions();
        options.pause = pauseGameDuringAd;
        options.resultCallback = HandleShowResult;
       
        Advertisement.Show(zone,options);
    }
       
    public static void HandleShowResult (ShowResult result)
    {
        switch (result)
        {
        case ShowResult.Finished:
            Debug.Log("The ad was successfully shown.");
            break;
        case ShowResult.Skipped:
            Debug.Log("The ad was skipped before reaching the end.");
            break;
        case ShowResult.Failed:
            Debug.LogError("The ad failed to be shown.");
            break;
        }
    }



am i right in thinking the action would just need an playmaker FSM.event for each of the cases in the switch statement?

http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/question-concerning-video-adds-return-value.279849/

i think thats all it needs but i dont know how to do it. when i add a fsm.event to each of them i get an error.

this is the last thing i need before i click submit to the app store, so i would be so grateful if you could take a look.

cheers.

Hmmm, might have to give cloud03 a personal message, I'm not sure how to handle that ... I still think a proxy script might be needed but I could be wrong :S
