Okay so i followed the steps on the wiki on how to set everything up https://bitbucket.org/MartinFelis/love- ... _-_Windows

I coded a app and used the love2d program on the app store to run my app

now i want to publish it to the play store BUT i want to use this to obviously add ads to my game.

i just dont know how to use this to do that

when i run the command

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools>android update project -p 'C:\Users\teete\Desktop\NEWLOVEANDROID\build\google-play-services_lib'

i get the error

Error: Failed to combine working directory 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools' with project location ''C:\Users\teete\Desktop\NEWLOVEANDROID\build\love-android-sdl2admob'': The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

i have google-play-services_lib next to love-android-sdl2 with a folder named assets and my game.love inside

( love-android-sdl2 is the one i downloaded from https://bitbucket.org/master_both/love-android-sdl2 )

ive changed the AndroidManifest.xml to match my needs

im following https://bitbucket.org/MartinFelis/love- ... _Packaging > How to package the apk with your own LÖVE game

but i cant do that unless i have google-play-services_lib

if anyone who knows this stuff can help me that would be awesome im not very good with android stuff as i dont know much about it

thank you for the help! <3

Put the lib into your build folder. Then modify project.properties (I think) to have a relative path to the lib. Then do android update project -p "path/to/build/folder"
It might error saying you need a target. If so then follow the little help it gives you.

Hi! I think for windows you have to run it like this:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\android.bat update project -p "PATH" -t targetid
Also I forgot that you also have to add a target flag, for this you will have to run:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools\android.bat list target
and it will print something like this:

Code: Select all

id: 1 or "android-19"
     Name: Android 4.4.2
     Type: Platform
     API level: 19
     Revision: 4
     Skins: HVGA, QVGA, WQVGA400, WQVGA432, WSVGA, WVGA800 (default), WVGA854, WXGA720, WXGA800, WXGA800-7in
 Tag/ABIs : default/armeabi-v7a
----------
id: 2 or "android-23"
     Name: Android 6.0
     Type: Platform
     API level: 23
     Revision: 2
     Skins: HVGA, QVGA, WQVGA400, WQVGA432, WSVGA, WVGA800 (default), WVGA854, WXGA720, WXGA800, WXGA800-7in
 Tag/ABIs : default/armeabi-v7a
----------
id: 3 or "Google Inc.:Google APIs:19"
     Name: Google APIs
     Type: Add-On
     Vendor: Google Inc.
     Revision: 18
     Description: Android + Google APIs
     Based on Android 4.4.2 (API level 19)
     Libraries:
      * com.android.future.usb.accessory (usb.jar)
          API for USB Accessories
      * com.google.android.media.effects (effects.jar)
          Collection of video effects
      * com.google.android.maps (maps.jar)
          API for Google Maps
     Skins: HVGA, QVGA, WQVGA400, WQVGA432, WSVGA, WVGA800 (default), WVGA854, WXGA720, WXGA800, WXGA800-7in

----------
check for the [id: 2 or "android-23"] and put the number of the id on the -t flag.

Hmmm. I believe that error occurs when google-play-services_lib is not found, are you sure it is next to the project folder? Also make sure to not move the lib folder after you run android update project.

Make sure the path in project.properties relatively points to the Google services lib. SO claimed an absolute path may not work.
