[RELEASED] OJYA LEADERBOARD V6 - The best and most complete Facebook leaderboard - Facebook API 16

Hi,
Can i use this if i plan to publish to facebook?

Will it work in gameroom and facebook page tab?

Also, will it work well , with Unity 2017.2 ?

I assume i dont have to download the facebook sdk for unity any longer

 

Hello,
- Yes, you can publish to Facebook timeline. Uses the me/feed and game.celebrate. If this what you ask.

- OjyaLeaderboard is for mobile only, iOS and Android. I have never tried compile as HTML5.
Of course in unity build there is the option Facebook Gameroom.
All Ojyaleaderboard code is the same for iOS and Android. Unity then compiles different. So i presume that this will work also for Facebook game room. Have to try.

- I have to download and check with newer version of Unity. As it doesn't use particular function for graphics this should work without problem with the newer versions, but i will do a test and tell you shortly.

- The Facebook SDK comes with the OjyaLeaderboard. No need for further installation.

OjyaLeaderboard is a plug and play with just 4 variables.
Of course you can change with easy the leaderboard behaviour, as i try to explain every function inside the PDF and with comments inside the scripts.

 

Ojya Leaderboard v1.6
Facebook API 2.10
*Soon Out*
​

- Ojya Leaderboard current version 1.5.6 is compatible with Unity 2017.2 release.
Please, visit our site only for a small fix that can be done easy by the developer.
Concerns a fix in the color of the font used for posting to Facebook timeline a challenge.
Site section 'Fixes-Updates'.

- Also the new upcoming version 1.6 is compatible with Unity 2017.2 release.

Among the other new functions, now it is possible to ask and send bonus directly from inside the post challenge panel, to the user you selected to challenge (the send bonus from inside the panel is deliberately used and not after request of the user to challenge, as it is used mainly in ojyaleaderboard).
​

​

Next version will be submitted with the Unity v5.5 as always , but the developer can use it without problems also with the 2017.2 release.

Now when Facebook doesn't approve publish_actions for games that are using it solely for score API. How will this package still function ???

 

How you are using the leaderboard? Only for scores? And not for posting to timeline, i mean the other functions? What exactly did they say?

Anyway, Facebook explains that you cannot have publish_actions permissions only if you use the score API(this from 16 SEP 2017). (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/games/services/scores-achievements/)

Facebook always wants by using your game to promote not only your app but to invite also other people to use your game and use more Facebook in general.
This will happen only when your game and user posts to timeline infos about your game or the progress of a player during the game.
And using Facebook for your game , the main reason, is to do this thing. Promote...
The score mechanism is not the primary reason to have a game using Facebook.


And one more thing. OjyaLeaderboard is NOT using the classic Facebook Score API.
It has its own mechanism using other Facebook open graph actions to share score info.
That is why you can have a complete leaderboard with levels, and not only the highest score.

So, using the games.celebrate and the me/feed for posting to timeline is the main thing Facebook wants for the publish_actions permissions.

Please, use OjyaLeaderboard with all it's functions for the app review, and not only score.

Does it support Standalone Builds with the help of Embeded Browser?

 

I am not user what you mean, but it supports login with Native app and Embeded Browser on iOS and Android.
At Facebook Gameroom there is only way to login.
The only thing that it does not support is when you test OjyaLeaderboard from the Unity Player , directly, it does not open the facebook dialogs. This has to do with the Facebook SDK for Unity and not with OjyaLeaderboard.
But apart this, it is fully functional also from the Unity Editor play, for testing.

 

Ojya Leaderboard v3
Facebook API 3.0
* RELEASED *​

Yes...!! Facebook API 3.0
After important depreciations in the facebook api in version 3 OjyaLeaderboard is getting better with the same features and even more.

• Double Server Mode for the score database. In OjyaLeaderboard v3 and with facebook API 3.0 you can select with a boolean to use ONLY the facebook server for the scores, as before, or the new SQL Ojya database (with a really plug and play method).
• Posting to facebook timeline custom image , the post challenge and the game cellebration, now uses real meta tags with the most great view and information, as it was before API 2.8 (caption,link,message etc).
• With 2 Ojya editor windows, OjyaLeaderboard Values and the PHP SQL functions, you can setup easily and fast the most important values of your leaderboard.
• Operational at 100% also the great function to share bonus, game items between players.
• Updating your game with the new OjyaLeaderboard v3 ,will transfer the old scores from the Facebook API 2.xx server to the new facebook scores mode for API 3.0 or to your SQL database, depends what you selected.

Mode1: Facebook API 2.x - Facebook Server Scores - Facebook Server timeline post
Mode2: Facebook API 3.0 - Facebook Server Scores - Facebook with FTP timeline post
Mode3: Facebook API 3.0 - FTP-SQL Server Scores - Facebook with FTP timeline post

OjyaLeaderboard V3 is the facebook leaderboard that keeps all it's functions continuing to use the facebook server for saving the data scores even after the release of API 3.0.

Version 3 needs you have a web hosting service , for using the leaderboard at 100%, unless you use only the facebook server score mechanism and you post to fb time line prefixed images and text. Read the PDF.

Hey andyvene, I need a step-by-step tutorial show me how to implement this into my project. I read all the things you wrote in the document but have no idea how to use it.

 

How can I open Ojya values panel? I clicked on Ojya editor/OjyaLeaderboard value but nothing open.

​

 

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="

" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Is this a bug?

 

Hello, i have checked it and solved it.

It does not find the folder 'ojyaValues' in your 'Application.persistentDataPath'. Where your unity game saves data for each game.
This folder was created manually by me, only for saving the presets of the 'Ojyaleaderboard Values' panel.
So once you have located the 'Application.persistentDataPath' folder your game uses, create a new folder 'ojyaValues'.

SOLUTION 1
create the folder 'ojyaValues' in your 'Application.persistentDataPath', as described above

or another solution , save the values without using the folder 'ojyaValues' in 'Application.persistentDataPath'
You need to do only one change in the 'OjyaEditorCom.cs' script.

57 public static string pathOjyaValuesPresetsB = Application.dataPath + "/OjyaLeaderboard/ojyaExtras/";
58 public static string pathOjyaValuesPresets = Application.persistentDataPath+"/";


SOLUTION 2
Use the 'Application.dataPath' instead of 'Application.persistentDataPath'.
You need to do only one change in the 'OjyaEditorCom.cs' script.
Lines 57 and 58. Change as below:
57 public static string pathOjyaValuesPresets = Application.dataPath + "/OjyaLeaderboard/ojyaExtras/";
58 public static string pathOjyaValuesPresetsB = Application.persistentDataPath+"/ojyaValues/";

('public static string pathOjyaValuesPresetsB' is never used. Is inserted only to make a quick change from one path to another)

Actually i had anticipated this feature without knowing that could create a problem when installing to a new package.
Anyway will help now !!

I will insert this FIX also in the site Section 'Updates - BugFixes', and use as default the 'Application.dataPath'.

Thanks!

PS. Keep in mind that those editor panels just setup the values of 'FacebookSettingsEditor.cs' script.
So, you can set them directly there.
During distribution you can leave them or just remove them, will no affect the game play.

 

Ojya Leaderboard v3.1

Hey andyvene, Could you please make a step-by-step tutorial show me how to install/implement/deploy this into my project. I read all the things you wrote in the document but have no idea how to use it.

 

How can I fix this?
Can you make it get the token automatically?

 

I sent you in your mail box a step by step to install and setup.

Facebook SDK for Unity never login automatically using the Unity Editor.
Neither the facebook share dialogs appears.
Has nothing to do with OjyaLeaderboard.

It works only from the build application ex: iOS, Android, Gameroom.... , there login automatically from the facebook Native App or Web Embeded browser, depends.

 

To all customers a new update for the 'Ojya Leaderboard for Unity v3-focused PDF.zip', that contains a second pdf with a very useful pass-to-pass steps for how to install and setup, using the PDF manual and it's sections.
Also inside the PDF the link of the video tutorial for Version 3.

Visit our site in section 'FIXES and UPDATES'

 

hi andyvene! Could you please explain why do we need facebook object id? what does it do? Is it required to use your plug in?
It would be so much better if you could make a video tutorial how to implement your plug in into a blank Unity project.
Thank you and best wishes for you!

 

Hello.
No. You don't need the 'FBObjectID' variable which is defined in 'FacebookSettingsEditor.cs'.
It does only change the behavior of the ASK and SEND bonus-items sharing dialog.
(Instead of 'GO' the name of the facebook button top of the share dialog , will become 'ASK' or 'SEND').
Leave it blank anyway , or create it directly from the menu 'Ojya Editor' -> 'Create FB Objects'. -> choose 'Object for apprequests'.

If you go in the PDF in Section G, it is very well explained there and also goto to Section M 'Create FB Object' with the editor panel.
DO NOT create objects anymore using the Object-Browser in the facebook Developer site. Only directly from OjyaLeaderboard editor panel.

Implement OjyaLeaderboard in your game is VERY simple.
First read the PDF 'Pass to pass setup' diagram for installing and setting up OjyaLeaderboard v3. Now it is very intuitive of the steps.
Watch also the video tutorial for OjyaLeaderboard V3 for setting FTP-SQL database etc.( link in page 1 of PDF)

The trick is this. OjyaLeaderboard is just another scene of your Game. Simple like that.
So, you have to know how to change scenes and also pass some variables ex: 'score,level,bonus' from one scene to another.
This is not OjyaLeaderboard it is just Unity programming. There are tutorials by Unity for that, passing values from one scene to another.

So making a tutorial for implementing OjyaLeaderboard in a blank project would be 1 minute video.
Maybe i will do it the next week.

Do not forget to watch in our YOUTUBE channel the videos. Just those for version 1.6 and above.

hi!

can I use "Ojya Leaderboard" to build leaderboard, but only for current month in my game?

thanks!

 

Hello,
I am afraid I don't understand. You mean have different leaderboards for different months ?

 

Something like that. I want my leader board to show the data only for current month, but not for all the time that app exists.

 

Ex. Will have levels from 1 to 100 and those levels with scores will be new -different every month ?

Or if a player has made in level 1 a score than you won't be able to see it next month. Let's say will start from zero again next month.

Please, tell me your leaderboard what information needs. Needs levels also or just a high score for each month? More information I have I can tell you if it is possible without hard modifications.

For example in request of a client I had to make different leaderboards each one with levels.
Leaderboard name: World1 ,with 70 levels.
Leaderboard with name World2 , with other 70 levels.

OjyaLeaderboard can be configured as you want, actually it has time information saved in the score data. So it can be filtered the score information for each month.

If you want , contact me also in my email: andy.venetis@me.com

 

yes, like that. No levels, no worlds. just highs core for player, but it should be new each month. is it possible?

 

Oh yes. In that case it is very simple. Actually you can delete the scores for each player after 30 days.
But if you want to keep an archive of the past months you can also do it. Let's say that you can create different levels that corresponds to each month. So not 'level 1' but 'October 2018'.
Actually Ojyaleaderboard is just prepared for that.
The only thing is just to change the designing of the leaderboard.
The player will have access only on the month's scores not other past months. (even if you can keep always an archive of the scores done before).

 

Sounds good. I will try your advise. Thank you!

 

In your case you need to design only the single level leaderboard. Which has the scores from high to low.
In that case it is named Mounty. But you can change the name to 'October 2018'.

In Ojyaleaderboard those names are fixed in 'FacebookSettingsEditor.cs' in method ' defineWorldDict() '.
In your case has to be changed in runtime the name of the level-world with the name of the month, OR simple define the dictionary in method defineWorldDict() ,for the next 4 years with 48 months. level1-->October 2018 , level2-->November 2018 etc.

(Keep in mind that in the string where ojyaleaderboard saves the scores it always as 'level1' for the server. But inside Ojyaleaderboard, level1 corresponds to 'Mounty' or 'October 2018' , using methods like 'worldsToLevel' and 'levelToWorlds' in 'FacebookSettingsEditor.cs' and using a c# dictionary for the corresponding)

The name of the level will be changed in runtime using a c# code to get the current date and time. You can find this easily in c# tutorials.( ex: time_t now = time(0); )

​

 

Thank you very much!
I will try to play with those methods.
