API 34

[Matnogames]

Google Android API 34 requeriment. Help, I need compile to API 34. Thanks.

[KOCAK]

I subscribed to this discussion as I also need to fill that requirement.
Side note: we have around 2 weeks left to update our games so please relase an update for this issue

I doubt that they will update the Google API for AppGameKit Classic as they have dropped the support for this version.
Here the announcement to retiring AppGameKit Classic: https://steamcommunity.com/games/325180/announcements/detail/4170972198114174865

Your existing Steam version is not DRM-linked to your Steam account and you can run AppGameKit Classic from its local location in the Steam folder and from a Desktop icon, and you can continue to use the programming language to make apps and games. The only issue you will face is that as newer requirements are imposed by Apple and Google, and to a lesser extent Microsoft, you will find it increasingly difficult for the binaries you export to be accepted onto the app stores and marketplaces of the future.[...]

As far as I know, AppGameKit Studio supports API 34.

If it was we should be able to export to API 34 which I dont see, were you able to do so?

It's not possible in AppGameKit Classic

(at least I'm not aware of an API 34 export in AppGameKit Classic)

However AppGameKit Studio offer the API 34 as *a minimum* option *(therefore it should be part of AppGameKit Studio)*:

I have updated Classic to support API 34 but it's not available to other users yet as I don't have a means to share it. I will need to speak to TGC for approval.

Yeah, I know. Maybe it wasn't written well. The only thing I wanted to express is that if an application offers an option as minimum, the application should support it.

Nevertheless, thank you for clarifying and correcting my poorly written post^^.

The updated Classic API 34 version also has API 34 in the minimum API list.

Thank you very much Zaxxan for your job, but I tried to export to Google aab file and there was this error: Fail runing zipalign tool: system can't find the specified file.

Maybe you could paste the code into studio. Than upload it that way.

[Zaxxan]

@Matnogames,

Hi, I'm just checking now. I should be uploading a new version later today so I will confirm that exports work before uploading

[Matnogames]

@Zaxxan

Thank you very much. Great job!

[Zaxxan]

Does everything work ok?
