[APP]Beer Program for Diamond (G-Sensor)

I've seen the program beer on the internet for the iphone. its a app that simulate a full beer glass (see video link),
there is also another program for the nokia n95 called pypiwo that's simulating a beer to and many other drinks.
I thinks it's a very nice idea for a new app for the diamond .
it's not a very difficult concept, the only hard part is the graphical stuff(i think don't have much experience on making programs and graphical stuff ).
i'd love to make this app by my self but i don't have the knowledge for it (any tips/lecture for learning how to make this apps for the diamond is always welcome: D)
but to the point this thread is for your thoughts about this and to find someone to make this

Greetz,
Svenss

the guitar programm would be useless for the diamond cause it dont hase multitouch.
And the beer stuff can wait.. its funny the first time and then?
looking forward for some real usefull programms

svenss there is no ibeer app for the iphone, its just a lame trick, its just a pre-recorded video of bear, and what you do is sync the video on your iphone through itunes and then its all about timing, you just have to remember when the bear poures out, you run the video using the iphone and tilt it just at the right time, it does not make use of the g-sensor/accelerometer at all, its just a simple stupid video.
But im sure an app can be developed that can trully utilise the g-sensor but that would be a waste of time for developers as it would only be amusing for a day or two, your better of just downloading the video, convert it to something windows mobile can play.

no offence but i think that there are many better ideas than this

hahaha, that guitarr app seems really cool. Sad it doesn't work on the little diamond

I'm a guitarist, and after seeing the videos, i can say it really rocks ! maybe this could make me sell my diamond and make me buy an iphone...

Hi
just google for iBeer.m4v
Br,

lol yeah i think about it and your all right.
stupid that we dont have multi touch iguitar is very cool
mwa see this then as a ****y talk forum for the beer video/ i guitar thing
---------
off-topic: i asked before but what program language do you need to program such things for the diamond
---------
up to better ideas for the diamond

It's easier to carry an iphone than a guitar...

You guys complain about a beer app being useless, but what use is something as a Lightsaber app? Though that gets praised sky high! I think it's a funny idea, shows off the accelerometer of te Diamond which is bloody accurate and perfect for this stuff. Would love to make an app like that, if only I had ANY knowledge of programming

I wouldent mind playing around with beer app at all.
How can I help?

lol its a idea i found but i cant make make apps,
sow how can i help you?
if you can make it, than it should be very cool

This >does< exist on the N95 and unlike the iPhone, works with the acc. meter.
I had it myself before trading it for the Diamond and had that software installed on the phone.
It was pretty accurate in the way I lifted it, the beer would move.
While it is a "waste" - I think it's a nice gimmick to have on the phone, whether its to show off or just some entertainment - like any other game that would be on it

I would love a beer program. That would be AWESOME to show off with at a party!

That could be a good learning app, maybe in a few weeks when I get my Pro I could try writing it.

I dont know how to make apps

i will make it for you guys
i will make it for you guys but it wont look that pritty at least to start off as i dont have much time for it right now (work/uni) expect it in 1-2 weeks
im also making a Flow type game and i have already made 2 testing apps (a ball simulator using the g-sen and a magic 8 ball app where you can shake the diamond)
please donate as then i can mabey work a few less hours and actually make the apps im makeing a bit better cos ill have a bit more time..

[THE] What the...?! Cameravideo as background

Yes, same comment from me...
How the hell did he it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=435131

I reccomend to rename this thread hoping the solution - explanation how to use the camera view as background on TF3D can be accomplished.
Can not be else than some reg tweaks - but which ones...THAT is the question

Wow, thats a battery saver
But cool is that the top and bottom menu are trasparent!

My guess is that it is a picture theme and the theme is the tf3d screen, so you probably couldn'y actaully use the phone from there.
Thats what I reckon anyway

guys- look carefully at the clip.
it is not recorded - it is the camera showing live stream as you would record or take a picture.
Certainly not a battery saver as it uses the autofocus function which is mechanic and consumes more.
However, it is really cool.

ahhh... the possibilities

Greetings to all.

looks awesome BUT, thats a CDMA diamond with 256 MB of ram and its running so slow to his gesture commands. i have a feeling that it would make your GSM diamonds puke and it would be bailrly useable for the CDMA users. HOWEVER it is very sweet!

So...it is or it isn't a fake !?

At 16secs when taking the phone towards the camera he should have took the camera towards the phone: the phone's image dont change.
I believe it is really a fake. The image just doesnt look right. That swinging left/right is very unnatural.
So I vote for fake

I don't understand what the big deal is? I don't have that creative of a mind though so maybe I'm not thinking of something cool that could be done with this...

looks fake given the display angle on the screen doesn't match the angle of the camera on the subject.
i suspect it's a mirror that's used to reflect the object image onto the shinny reflective screen on the diamond. But I could be wrong.
regardless, very creative!

I'd say he just used chroma keying

Concept for messaging app.

Check this iPhone app out that was reported on by Engadget. Looks like a cool concept and maybe something someone is interested in integrating. Just sharing the info. Enjoy!
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/05/14/emailnwalk-iphone-app-finally-lets-us-leave-the-house/

Basically for anyone that doesn't understand this it uses the camera input for the background so you can watch where your walking while typing. I think this can be done but no for devices with laggy cameras it could be done for them but I think it would be pointless. Such as the kaiser. (Though HTC camera 6.8 reduces alot of lag) Im willing to help with the UI

nice concept

lol,awesome
i might add this to my fim if its possible to hook the camera view.

I'm sorry but.... It's a nosense app!!I mean the only thing I would see behind the texting gaps would be.... THE GROUND
Think about it... when you're typing a sms you do it lookig DOWN to your device so the camera would record the ground!!!

This is true. Anyhow, I sure wasn't saying I wanted or needed this developed. I just wanted to pass it along to the community JIC someone was interested.
Keep the info coming in, ya know?

I WANT IT PLEASE would be awesome for walking and if you could use the flashlight too

I don't know how useful would this be... but it would definitely be cool!

The main use of this app would obviously be while driving or riding a motorcycle.

Simulate G-Sensor using camera

Hi all, have somebody thought about simulating the accelerometer using the phone camera? It's possible?
I couldn't find anything about this, sorry, but i'd be really happy to know that there's someone coding something like this...
PS: sorry for my poor english

i dont see this happening at all... i mean a image is produced by using light... how would that information tell u which way or which angle the phone is on :S

Ok, but as the image moves the phone could know how am i moving it

Theoretically, it is possible. It would just be a huge battery sucker and not too accurate. I came across this game a long time ago, back when I still had my Titan (no accelerometer). It is called 3D Lawn Darts. It uses the camera to control your throws. Check it out:

It could work but only in a room covered with reference points all over the walls and floors like they use in 3D capture! LOL
I think the phone proccessor would choke on the proccessing! lol

there's a free app (i think) called CCSnake. Search for it. If you can't find it. Then search for Camera Controlled Snake. I tried it but the controls are not that good.

well not really.
Camera take as picture, then asks the user to set a referance point. somthing that stands out. It takes detaisl of that area (color shape, etc)
all further images are taken and referanced to that point. and the program then knows which way the PPC was turned. if you want rotaion then you just need two points.
For all movements just 3 referance points are needed.
This is very basic movemnets and your limited to the area you are in as the camera must see the original points. but it would work.

i saerched for this a long time and tought: maybe you can do it with an other part of the phone.
or maybe you can make a program to use this as a normal g-sensor with new accelerometer software.
erik

There was a game that I had on my old Motorola E815 that did just this. I think it was like a marble tilt game...it worked fairly well as long as you didn't move too fast and it wasn't too dark (or light for that matter, as the camera on the E815 was really mediocre).

[GAME] Livestock Vs The Undead Lite - Zombie TD - Discussion Forum

UPDATE v1.2 Just released onto the market
Thanks for all of the feedback. Please keep it coming. I think it's coming along nicely, next stage is to lay more in-game features.
More importantly - what do you think? The link is in my signature.
I've also started up a blog - if anyone is interested in writing their own app - it's how I've found the process.
::1.2
+ Redesigned graphics engine
+ Support for multi-sized devices including 320x480 up to tablets
+ Enhanced levelling system
+ Persisted scores and progress
+ Mute music/fx added to front screen and gameplay screens
+ Added new creep
+ Fixed FC issues on game leaving/re-entering
+ Redesigned splash screens
+ General bug fixes and graphical tweaks
---
I've just released Livestock Vs The Undead Lite v1.1 (free strategy game) onto Android Market and Amazon. (See screenshots attached)
I've tried to resolve all issues that had been raised and feel the game presents much more of a challenge. I've rewritten a large chunk of the graphics engine to handle a more involved playing environment. Added new characters, sounds and more features than I can list.
If you had tried it before and thought it too basic, or haven't tried it - please check out the new version and let me know if I'm it's starting to show any potential. If you liked it before, please let me know if you think any ways to improve it?
Sincerely - this project is being driven by feedback - so any is most welcome. All suggestions will be considered.
Many thanks,
Paul
Hi,
** EDIT : 04/06/2011 : Livestock Vs The Undead Lite is now completely free and available in the Android Market! Please check it out! **
I thought it'd be great to give and receive thoughts and feelings for my first ever attempt at an android tower defence type game. (Currently available on the android market.)
==========
A brief description:
"Only you can save the planet. Again. 'Cos you are good at it!
"The farm is under attack! It's an all out invasion from hordes of gruesomely reanimated dead and the animals aren't going to take it lying down.
"Fight wave after wave of increasing challenging life-challenged assailants.
Utilise each of the unique skills on offer from the livestock that are fighting your cause.
"This is a taste of an imminent future release."
==========
I am very new to all this and am keen to learn. The biggest question is : what do you think?

Under the superb advice given from these very forums I have released the game freely into the market.

Hi,
Very nice for your first game. Is this an original game concept by you or did you 'copy' it from another game? (I know it's based on tower defense games, but never saw a 'top down' one like this)
Played it one time now till I got to level 3, then I died
some remarks
- why is the screen shifting when I move the phone around?
- tutorial screens are not very clear plus they dont stay on screen long enough. It's like: "1 pig is 1 rocket, 1 hay is 1 shield, wait a minute.. what?" and then the screen is already gone
- also, it wasn't obvious that the chickens and stuff cost 'cash'. At first I thought they only 'cost' time. And I couldnt figure out why I couldnt build any pigs, thats when I realised I needed to build up cash.
- there's also no clear way to tell how much each animal costs in cash
- level 1 is kinda boring, I think level 1 is necessary, because you should give people the time too learn the game, but it's too long. When you reach level 2 things get a lot more interesting, zombies are coming at you in higher numbers and at higher speed (i think).
- I also think zombies get more health as you progress through the levels? But there's no way to tell, so I didnt know how many chickens to place
- Last remark: When a zombie reaches the first of your 'last defense' chickens, your basicly screwed. There's nothing you can do. Maybe you should introduce a bomb or something to push the zombies back?
- And also introduce some animals that don't just shoot up. (or maybe there are some in later levels?)
Anyway, it's pretty nice for your first game. I even enjoyed it a bit, but tower defense type games can't hold my interest for very long i'm afraid.
Hope this was of some help to you.

Hi swimon,
First of all: many thanks for your feedback.
"Very nice for your first game. Is this an original game concept by you or did you 'copy' it from another game? (I know it's based on tower defense games, but never saw a 'top down' one like this)"
It has elements of several tower defence games - I thought the vertical layout would set it out from the rest. I haven't seen any other quite like this.
"Played it one time now till I got to level 3, then I died "
Not bad for your first go!
"some remarks
- why is the screen shifting when I move the phone around? "
It allows the player to see a larger playing area that the phone's screen. I was hoping it would make the game more involving and a bit more interesting to watch.
"- tutorial screens are not very clear plus they dont stay on screen long enough. It's like: "1 pig is 1 rocket, 1 hay is 1 shield, wait a minute.. what?" and then the screen is already gone "
I agree. I think I shall add a 'tutorial' section that incorporates levels one to three. Players new to the game will then get a gentle intro to the game and repeat players could then skips these easier levels to get straight into the action.
"- also, it wasn't obvious that the chickens and stuff cost 'cash'. At first I thought they only 'cost' time. And I couldnt figure out why I couldnt build any pigs, thats when I realised I needed to build up cash. "
As above.
"- there's also no clear way to tell how much each animal costs in cash"
That was the next thing on my list to do!
"- level 1 is kinda boring, I think level 1 is necessary, because you should give people the time too learn the game, but it's too long. When you reach level 2 things get a lot more interesting, zombies are coming at you in higher numbers and at higher speed (i think)."
This should be addressed in the tutorial as mentioned above.
"- I also think zombies get more health as you progress through the levels? But there's no way to tell, so I didnt know how many chickens to place "
You are correct - the creeps (I take it you haven't gotten past the zombies yet?) do get harder each level. I did this so you'll never reach a stalemate which would take all interest out of the game. My intention is to make some shooters more powerful against some creeps than others, which should add to the strategy element.
"- Last remark: When a zombie reaches the first of your 'last defense' chickens, your basicly screwed. There's nothing you can do. Maybe you should introduce a bomb or something to push the zombies back?"
Yep. I have a number of attack methods to add.
"- And also introduce some animals that don't just shoot up. (or maybe there are some in later levels?)"
As above.
"Anyway, it's pretty nice for your first game. I even enjoyed it a bit, but tower defense type games can't hold my interest for very long i'm afraid. "
Many thanks. I know tower defence isn't everyone's flavour of game but I do appreciate you taking the time to try it out and even more so for giving me this feedback.
"Hope this was of some help to you."
Absolutely!

Just be careful with sensor controls. It's not everyone's cup of tea first of all, a lot of people don't like it. And secondly it's very difficult to implement well (imo).
You could also easily control the camera by swyping your fingers on the screen? Maybe make it a user defined setting.
Thirdly (is that a word?): I don't really see the point of it? I don't know at what resolution you tested it, but on my Desire, I can already see every row/column so there's no need to shift?

Maybe you should change the color of the shirts of the zombies as they grow stronger, so the player knows he's facing a stronger opponent.

heya,
yeah, don't know why it asks for root permission. I clicked deny and remember and the game still runs fine. So dunno...
The game is actually pretty addicting, but it's also really hard (maybe thats what makes it addicting...)
I already found a way to cheat though
When you see one of your shields (hay stack) is about to go down, quickly replace it with another at the moment it get's destroyed
You could also introduce downward shooting animals to kill off the last zombies of the wave who are still attacking your hay stacks
Looking forward to the new version, 'cause I'm a little confused by the cash/time system

Glad to see your taking on board all the advice and critique on board, THAT is what makes a dev a GOOD dev.
Thanks for listening and keep at it!

Got to level 5 yesterday,
even managed to place one cat and one cow
but i'm not sure the cash system is in balance, I wasn't generating enough cash to build the more powerful animals/defenses to hold back to numerous (!) zombies and vampires

At the moment there is a slow cash over time increase - in case you put your first animal down in the wrong column on the first turn.
You get additional cash from shooting baddies - the more so the harder the creep.
The cooldown time is more for the hardier animal (apart from haystacks which I've kept quick cooldowns).
All this will be revealed in the tutorial.

Perhaps more frugal animal spending may help? On it's current settings I have completed level 12 (only once though ).
Thanks again,

Good luck! I've spent way too much time checking out new roms - my poor Desire is starting to have an identity crisis! XJs MIUI is my personal fave at the moment. Or is your 'messing' at a lower level?

I've had reports of memory issues and have tracked it down in the code.
I'll release a fix for this later today.

v1.1a has just been released onto the market.
Please let me know if there are any further issues and I'll jump straight on them.
Regards,
Paul

v1.1b has been uploaded with further memory optimizations.
This should fix some of the issues a small number of you have reported.
Cheers,
Paul

New screenshots have been posted on the original post.
For the next release I am looking to persist current level - so when you come back to play you start at the selection screen of the last level you had reached (with the option to start from the beginning again).
I have also raised the bullets to the top level - as they were looking a little strange flying through friendlies!
I have tracked down a bug that was causing force closes when the game had be paused and the user returned.
I am also looking to add some more variety to the creeps, bullets and towers.
Any suggestions on what you'd like to see adding?
Cheers,
Paul

New version (1.2) released onto the market.
Please check it out and let me know what you think.
Cheers,
