Admob Unity Plug-in use Google Play Services, support Interstitial

contact me: taquangtien92@gmail.com, i will support via teamviewer

 

Hello VNTIS !

your plugin looks interesting, i have already admob banner in my project i want add Intertitial ads unising your plugin.

i have one question :

you mentioned that Unity version must be 4.3 do you know if it works on Unity 4.1 ? if not, there is a solution for this except Updating unity.

thank you

 

I havent try in Unity 4.1, but it should work . If it doesnt work, may be it conflict with your current banner plug-in.
My plug-in support banner too, just use it.

 

how about to give it for free?) if you are not able to sell it anymore

 

im till selling via Email and Paypal. A lot people have bought it, its not fair for them if i share it for free.

 

Hello VNTIS !
your plugin looks interesting, Do you accept MoneyBooker ?

 

unfortunately, i dont.

New version 2.0 has arrived. Its easier to intergrate admob ads now. No more banner toast.

 

Update 2.1
Remove unnecessary permission READ_PHONE_STATE, thanks to Etorki Games who find this

 

hi how to remove " ad showing " text ?

 

use the lastest version! (only banner is free, a toast till coming up with interstitial and you have to buy to remove toast)

 

Hello VNTIS,
I have just installed your plugin into my project tested on some devices and posted on Google Play. However, first my friends discovered that there was a problem on S3 Mini, then some reports came from Google Play, that makes app crash.

I start ads after user dies and remove it when game started again. It crashes when I try to start ads. This is how do I start ad:

And this is the crash report:

 

hi Herhangi,

is it happen to any other devices? what android version of the S3 Mini?

 

Hello again,
So far devices that have sent bug report are S3 mini and N9520 as seen in Google Play both are Android 4.1. Thanks by now

 

try:
- place this file (in the zip) in \Assets\Plugins\Android
- remove the current vntis.admob.vn.xxx.jar

 

how can i set position of banner? its at top by default

 

in the tutorial

example: set banner at center bottom

 

Thank you for a quick reply

 

you're welcome!

 

Hello again VNTIS,
Sorry that I am replying late, i am on holiday
The .jar file you have sent is working quite well as my friend tested and reported to me.
We are thinking to get PRO version. Thanks for your quick support.
Just one quick question;
Should i send Google Play with this test .jar or will you make a release soon?
Thanks, keep up good work

 

Thanks you. If you dont want to get the PRO version yet, just use the test.jar. Otherwise, i will release the 2.2 version bug fixed ASAP. Give me 1day

Edited: 2.2 released

 

Great plugin VNTIS, you saved me!
What happens to me is that depending on the device may be the Medium Rectangle higher pixels.
How do I get the size Medium Rectangle?
According say the size is 300x250, but on some devices (high in inches) the actual size (in inches) is the same.
For example, in a Galaxy S1 (4 inches) and a Galaxy S4 (5 inches) is identical Rectangle Medium size.

Thank you

 

According to this, https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/admob/intermediate
Except SMART_BANNER, others have fixed size include MEDIUM_RECTANGLE.



this is MEDIUM_RECTANGLE in my devices. the tablet has res 1280x800, phone 800x480. Ad size is fixed.

 

On the phone with resolution 800x480 Medium Rectangle size is larger than 320x250. (equal to mine)
My idea is to add a button on the right vertex of advertising.
Thanks.

 

Thx for plugin, but test ads not working for me I got normal one.

Hi guys,
I am new in Unity and I'm having a problem with the plugin. I can not use the methods isInterstitialLoaded(), displayInterstitial() and loadInterstitial(). Why is that? There are available only in pro?

 

use version 2.2. there only 1 medthod you need to call

 

Thanks for the reply VNTIS,
Oh...ok then. You see my problem is that I want the Interstitial ad to be ready to show it on click instantly. In my case the ad take some to show up about 5 to 7 seconds.

 

To make my plug-in easier to use, i've removed all other methods since 2.0 version. So, requesting and showing ad are all in 1 method.

If you want to deal with interstitial load and show, try version 1.1

 

Ok then I will try it out then and I'll let you know. Thanks again you are the best :-D .

 

Everything is working fine but its taking more time to show Interstitial AD can i solve this issue.

 

I read that you have to be selected or "whitelisted" in order to use Interstitial ADs in AdMob. Is this the case?

 

im just a normal dev

 

Really? I'm confused then can you monetize Interstitial ADs? Did they change their policy? I ask because I saw this from google https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-admob-ads-sdk/MsviEsyFUOw

 

we can use interstitial now. that topic is old

 

Thanks VNTIS, thats great to know! Do you know how do they compare to Chartboost as far as how much they pay out? Sorry for all the questions there are so many ad services its confusing to decide on which one to go with

 

Getting this error when trying to compile... any idea?

Code (csharp):

1. Error building Player: CommandInvokationFailure: Unable to convert classes into dex format. See the Console for details.
2. C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe -Xmx1024M -Dcom.android.sdkmanager.toolsdir="C:/Program Files (x86)/AndroidSDK/sdk\tools" -Dfile.encoding=UTF8 -jar "C:/Program Files (x86)/Unity/Editor/Data/BuildTargetTools/AndroidPlayer\sdktools.jar" -

 

Thank you very much! I was trying to use the default Google admob plugin but i could not get it to work. Now with your plugin it works!

Check it out on my game, Getting Ducky (don't expect an amazing game ). Uploaded my new version just now so i guess the ads will be there in a few hours.

 

This looks great! I hope it works together with the play-games-plugin-for-unity, so far I have not been able to find and correctly isntall a plugin that does. I will let you know how it goes later this weekend!

 

Hi VNTIS - thanks a lot for this plugin, it helped me resolve a problem I had with the other admob plugin and google play. It seems to be working a treat.

Am I right in thinking the free version is OK to use for banners, but you have to pay $10 for interstitials? I don't plan to use them at this stage, but I will chuck you $10 anyway because you saved me a lot of bother and geeks have to stick together.

Would I just paypal you $10 to taquangtien92@gmail.com or is there some other way?

The game I've stuck it on so far is here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.balloonhead.discolights - a funny little game, but it might just be simple and funky enough to work, who knows

Thanks again!
Dan

 

As per your first post, I indeed can get the plugin to work with play-games-plugin-for-unity! Thanks a bunch!

I still have to find out how to put it into test mode. I think I have to put my device id into "Test_device_id" but where do i find this ID?

Next stop is to add in app billing, I'm hoping to use OpenIAB for this. Anyone have any experience with combining these plugins?

 

Hi VNTIS,

Thanks a lot, I published a Jet Fighter Game and used your plugin (Both banner and interstitial). It is perfect.

Here is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.javatar.JetFighterFlightSimulator

 

Hi VNTIS, thanks for this plugin. Works pretty well.

Ok my impressions are going up, but I'm not seeing revenue, is that because I published it with test device id as 1? Should I reupload it with it set as nothing?

This is what it was yesterday:

@scribbledoo
I believe that means your users see test ads. You should turn that off.

Also: Is there a way to catch signals like onInterstitialLoaded and onInterstitalClosed? I want to pause my game on interstitial but I have no way of knowing when to resume. Even an isLoaded/isVisible bool would be useful, then I would just handle it in update.

 

Idk, it's actually working fine now. I think it was just because I had 0 clicks. Now that i'm getting clicks the revenue is going up.

 

Good to hear it's working. I too have found that interstitials pause the game by itself, problem is that it takes some time to load while the game keeps running, I would like to time the pause myself. Will keep it like this for now though, if anyone knows how to catch a on close clicked signal for the interstital i'd love to know!

Quick question what is a toast interstitial? Does the interstitial still work?
