Update from Adobe AIR 17.0 to HARMAN AIR 33 to Restore Cross Compatibility #96

Since now AIR is now Again on Linux, would be great if BoscaCeoil was updated so it worked!

TerryCavanagh commented 2 years ago

Oh, interesting - I wasn't aware that there was a new version of AIR on Linux! Have you tried the existing .air file out?

Fancy2209 commented 2 years ago

I unfortunately can't get the Old AIR version for BoscaCeoil 2.0 since the link on the guide is broken and redirects to the the future of AIR Blog Post

Oh, I just meant this: http://www.boscaceoil.net/downloads/boscaceoil_v2.air

Does this work on the new AIR Linux runtime?

Fancy2209 commented 2 years ago

They don't have a New Runtime They have a New SDK so you can package the app with it for distribution, it's weird that that's how it works but it is. https://airsdk.harman.com/download https://airsdk.harman.com/runtime

So it requires to be ran by the SDK like trough adl, and I also can't test that because it seems I require a license?

TerryCavanagh commented 2 years ago

Ah, I see - looks like they have a free tier which inserts a splash screen. I'll investigate if I can get this to compile at some future point.

Fancy2209 commented 2 years ago

Ok, thanks! I remember trying it and the free tier working on Android and not for Linux tough, might be misremembering

Fancy2209 commented 2 years ago

It's been 5 months, any updates on this?

TerryCavanagh commented 2 years ago

I'm persueing the haxe direction at the moment, so haven't tried this. This seems like a temporary patch to a long term problem, which is that Bosca needs to change library in order to have a future

Fancy2209 commented 2 years ago

Good to know! Tough I'm sure it's a lot of work getting the AS3 to Haxe even after using as3hx so I just wish you the best of luck on converting Bosca to Haxe!
