Is it still possible to use the Chartboost Plugin?

mejon · August 28, 2015, 7:35pm

I tried using the plugin but, it does not work.

here is the main.lua

local chartboost = require( "plugin.chartboost" ) -- Your Chartboost app id and signature for iOS local yourAppID = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" local yourAppSignature = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" -- Change the appid/sig for Android if system.getInfo( "platformName" ) == "Android" then yourAppID = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" yourAppSignature = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" end print("Chartboost plugin version: ".. chartboost.getPluginVersion()) print("Using ("..yourAppID..")("..yourAppSignature..")") -- Initialise ChartBoost chartboost.init { appID = yourAppID, appSignature = yourAppSignature, listener = chartBoostListener } -- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- IMPORTANT! YOU MUST CALL chartboost.startSession() IN YOUR OWN CODE AS BELOW TO ENSURE PROPER PLUGIN BEHAVIOR -- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! chartboost.startSession()

and build.settings

plugins = { ["plugin.google.play.services"] = { publisherId = "com.coronalabs" }, ["plugin.chartboost"] = { publisherId = "com.swipeware" }, ["plugin.google.play.services"] = { publisherId = "com.coronalabs", supportedPlatforms = { android = true } } },

@mejon where you able to implement Chartboost into corona? I am facing same problem.
I read in the forum that it stop supporting at the end of August.

@blablu1212

yeah I don’t think Chartboost is supported any longer. If you look at the list of plugins for ads. You have Vungle, iAds and Admob left.

Really a CB plugin is seriously needed…

Yeah, we need a CB plugin big time!

@mejon I have a game that has Chartboost working fine currently on the App Store, what sorts of error messages and/or responses are you getting back from the chartboost.init() function if any? I didn’t think Corona ever officially supported Chartboost (I might be wrong on this)

+1 for an official Corona Chartboost plugin.

In the meantime you will have to give me more detail regarding the issues you are experiencing and I might be able to help you guys.

Cheers

Simon

Are you using swipeware’s plugin?

mejon · October 18, 2015, 6:55pm

Hey Simon,

Same question as ‘playpunkgames’: Are you using swipeware’s plugin? Also what does your main.lua and your build.settings look like. Is it different from what I posted in my initial post? Thanks, mejon

Yes I am using Swipewares implementation. Have you looked at/used the sample application from Ingemar ?

Sample App

Chartboost is performing better for me than AdMob or AdBuddiz and has been for months.

I have contacted Chartboost and asked if they will support the plugin going forward. I hope users of Chartboost and Corona will do the same as it can only increase the chances of support.

Please contact them today: https://answers.chartboost.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Thanks!

@hogletpie I just contacted them and also asked for a Corona plugin.

Magenda · November 2, 2015, 6:50pm

So, does swipeware’s plugin currently work for Android?

I also asked Chartboost for an official plugin.
