Applovin Rewarded Video not rewarding points

[sysads]

Hi

I am trying to implement Applovin Rewarded video but running into some issue. When I click on a button and video plays and completes, it does not reward the needed points in game. See code below:

-- AppLovin local applovin = require( "plugin.applovin" ) local function applovinVideo\_load() applovin.load() end local function applovinVideo\_Show() applovin.show() end local function adListener( event ) if ( event.phase == "init" ) then -- Successful initialization print( event.isError ) -- Load an AppLovin ad applovin.load() elseif ( event.phase == "loaded" ) then -- The ad was successfully loaded elseif ( event.phase == "failed" ) then -- The ad failed to load print( event.type ) print( event.isError ) print( event.response ) -- The user declined to view a rewarded/incentivized video ad elseif ( event.phase == "declinedToView" ) then print( "AppLovin event: user declined to view " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad" ) -- The user viewed a rewarded/incentivized video ad elseif ( event.phase == "validationSucceeded" ) then print( "AppLovin event: " .. tostring(event.type) .. " ad viewed and reward approved by AppLovin server" ) -- Reward user here print ("save count before adding" .. savecount) savecount = savecount + 1 Lib.setSaveValue("savecount", savecount, true); print ("save count after adding" .. savecount) myData.label\_saveme.text = tostring( savecount ) -- local alert = native.showAlert("Successful","Ads loaded successfully!", {"OK"}) elseif ( event.phase == "clicked" ) then -- The ad was clicked/tapped print( event.type ) end end -- Initialize the AppLovin plugin applovin.init( adListener, { sdkKey="xxxxxxxxxxx", verboseLogging=false } )

Touch Event fr the button

-- Button touched buttonTouched = function(event) local t = event.target local id = t.id if event.phase == "began" and touchEnabled == true then display.getCurrentStage():setFocus( t ) t.isFocus = true t.xScale = 0.9 t.yScale = 0.9 elseif t.isFocus then if event.phase == "ended" then display.getCurrentStage():setFocus( nil ) t.isFocus = false t.xScale = 1 t.yScale = 1 local b = t.contentBounds if event.x \>= b.xMin and event.x \<= b.xMax and event.y \>= b.yMin and event.y \<= b.yMax then utils.playSound("select") if id == "applovin\_ads" then applovinVideo\_load() applovinVideo\_Show() else -- few more codes here end end end end return true end

Build version: 2016: 2949

Thanks

Both applovin.load() and applovin.show() take a boolean parameter which must be set to true for incentivized videos to load/show. If omitted the default value is false. Note that you must also enable “Rewarded Video” in the AppLovin developer portal to receive incentivized/rewarded videos in your app.

Hi

I am confused a bit. The video shows when i click on my button but it does not reward user. By that I mean, it does not do this bit of the code:

savecount = savecount + 1 Lib.setSaveValue("savecount", savecount, true); print ("save count after adding" .. savecount) myData.label\_saveme.text = tostring( savecount )

[ingemar_cl]

When you call applovin.load() / applovin.show() (without passing true as an argument), a non-rewarded intersitial video is shown. To load and show a rewarded video you must pass true to the load and show functions as per the documentation below.

Documentation:

applovin.load(): https://docs.coronalabs.com/plugin/applovin/load.html

applovin.show(): https://docs.coronalabs.com/plugin/applovin/show.html

yes I saw all that and took the code from there but how do I set it to true? Any sample working code to help with to make life much easier for me :(

OK I tried this and it appears to work but issue is it appears to repeat the reward twice so instead of just adding +1, it does +1 twice:

local function rewardedVideo\_load() applovin.load( isIncentivized ) end local function adListener( event ) if ( event.phase == "init" ) then -- Successful initialization print( event.isError ) -- Load an AppLovin ad elseif ( event.phase == "loaded" ) then -- The ad was successfully loaded print( event.type ) -- Show the ad applovin.show(isIncentivized) elseif ( event.phase == "failed" ) then -- The ad failed to load print( event.type ) print( event.isError ) print( event.response ) elseif ( event.phase == "displayed" or event.phase == "playbackBegan" ) then -- The ad was displayed/played print( event.type ) elseif ( event.phase == "hidden" or event.phase == "playbackEnded" ) then -- The ad was closed/hidden print( event.type ) savecount = savecount + 1 Lib.setSaveValue("savecount", savecount, true); myData.label\_saveme.text = tostring( savecount ) local alert = native.showAlert("New score",savecount, {"OK"}) elseif ( event.phase == "clicked" ) then -- The ad was clicked/tapped print( event.type ) end end -- Initialize the AppLovin plugin applovin.init( adListener, { sdkKey="xxxxxxxxxx", verboseLogging=false } )

Where do you define isIncentivized?

Hi Rob, I am just following the example below so not sure what you mean by define isIncentivized? Thanks

https://docs.coronalabs.com/plugin/applovin/show.html

[rob]

When you see:  applovin.show( [isIncentivized] ) in the documentation, you need to read that that means:

isIncentivized _(optional)

Boolean. Set this to true if you want to show an incentivized/rewarded video. Default is false. Note that you must enable “Rewarded Video” in the AppLovin developer portal to receive incentivized/rewarded videos in your app.

 

This says that applovin.show() takes a single parameter that is a boolean, it’s either true or false. The brackets tell you it’s an optional parameter.

So you can:

applovin.show( true ) -- gets incentive ads applovin.show( false ) -- gets non-incentive ads

You can optionally create a variable, named whatever you want, but we recommend “isIncentivized” as a good generic variable name. That means:

local isIncentivized = true applovin.show( isIncentivized )

is the same as:

applovin.show( true )

If you just do:

applovin.show( isIncentivized )

with out first creating a variable named isIncentivized it will default to nil, which in this case, its the same as nil. The simplest thing to do is just do:

applovin.load( true )

and

applovin.show( true )

Thanks for your help so far Rob but still couldn’t get this to work so I have given up on it.

[rob]

Don’t give up. Can you post your code where you are attempting to load ads and where you are attempting to show ads?

[InfuseDreams1]

It’s happening twice because of this:

elseif ( event.phase == “hidden” or event.phase == “playbackEnded” ) then – The ad was closed/hidden

IIRC, hidden and playbackEnded are both dispatched when the video ends.

Only increase the coins on playbackEnded.

[sysads]

@InfuseDreams that is interesting to know. Will try that now and see what happens

@Rob thanks and certainly won’t give up :). let me try InfuseDreams suggestion and see what happens.

[sysads]

Thanks @InfuseDreams & @Rob

removing event.phase == “hidden” worked.

Where do you define isIncentivized?
