Has Cocos2DX been changed fully by Cocos Creator? It seems just like the final replace of 2DX was a pair years again. Will it proceed to be up to date/supported?

Yes, it’s endorsed to make use of cocos creator for brand new initiatives, cocos2dx is not going to up to date once more.

Depends what’s your understanding of useless. It is not going to be receiving new options, however I consider it is going to be maintained for bugs. And for me that’s greater than sufficient to maintain utilizing it for a lot of a few years. Also, i don’t discover any lacking characteristic for the kind of 2nd video games I do.

Cocos2dx 4.0, regardless of the numerous “is dead” remark, is a really mature engine. Just test what number of wonderful video games the place and are nonetheless finished with it. Some builders are nonetheless utilizing at present 3.x model.

If you might be like some devs, together with myself, that wish to code in c++ I’d advocate not be discouraged by the “is dead” feedback.

Maybe in case you’re video games are 3d cocos creator would make sense? I don’t know.

I feel it’s a disgrace that they determined to drop new model of cocos2dx. I ve learn lots of feedback in different discussion board like Godot about coding in c++. In Godot you may, form of, however it extra like a binding.

Cocos2dx was the one 100% cpp engine mature sufficient for CPP devs. They had one thing distinctive that different engines don’t present. It’s unhappy that they dropped it, however as I stated, in my case a minimum of, cocos 2dx 4.0 is greater than sufficient for years to return.

Hope that helps

you might be proper @rudiHammad . now as a cocos2dx recreation developer, i can say i dont in a position to get clearly cocos creator with out correct documentation and video tutorials. first issues i’ve by no means labored with typescripts or any form of that editor. additionally right here if you use cocos creator and search on youtube or google for one thing assist in cocos creator you bought principally 4-5 outcomes hardly.
and why cocos neighborhood not serious about these outdated developer who’re working with cocos2dx when cocos2dx 2.x was there. i dont know however for me with out correct tutorial, video, documentation it’s not straightforward to maneuver on creator.

@linrm please make properer docs for all characteristic with actual time instance. that 2-3 git hub take a look at instances, and docs will not be sufficient. and in addition please do proceed assist for already construct cocos2dx video games.

I’m utilizing 3.17 the final of model 3. 4 launched a few bugs for me and I don’t use METAL witch is the equal of home windows direct X. the engine has the whole lot you want, couldn’t consider something it actually wants apart from a GUI interface scripting of the engine. additionally dose cocos creator not want the supply in an effort to compile to native Apps.
else it simply runs within the internet browser?. I desire supply as is I can optimise it & have higher management. it’s actually easy to make use of anyway. and to let you know the reality would spend extra time now determining methods to get a sprite on display then simply calling addChild(); and removeChild();.
but when anybody is I might be more than pleased to create a Video tutorial on utilizing the Source programming and Optimise the crap out of it and the way it works. Joystick, Servers, Threading , debugging and video games.
if sufficient individuals ask I’ll begin a youtube channel and ask the admins right here to start out a thread.
however cocos2dx supply could be very a lot alive for me.

It is sweet to know that extra individuals are nonetheless utilizing cocos2dx.
I don’t know in case you’ll discover many requests asking for cocos2dx tutorials. I might be very fascinated by servers since I don’t know methods to do leadboards simply to hook up with a server storing the very best scores(haven’t investigated a lot but).
This is the sport that I’m at the moment creating in cocos2dx 4
my cocos2dx recreation
In any case, I additionally a lot desire to create a spirte and place it utilizing code that having to go throuhg a ui, drag and drop, translate in a viewport, then choose the sprite and connect to it sort scripts…I do see the attraction for different customers to make use of cocos creator, however many people nonetheless desire and can preserve utilizing cocos2dx even when it isn’t up to date anymore.
