Corona Project Manager license for sale!

February 23, 2012 CoronaSDK

As you might know, we have recently decided to move away from CoronaSDK. Decision made based on our own requirements and expectations, but that won’t change the fact it still is a very good SDK which is capable of making hit games.

Anyway, due to that change we also won’t be using Corona Project Manager anymore and decided to sell our license to anyone who might be interested. I have confirmed that with Jay (CPM developer) and the license is transferable, so we are good to go…

Our asking price is $50 (1/3 off than the original price, $75), that is 33% discount…

If you are interested in buying, simply pay using the PayPal buy button below. As soon as we receive your payment, I’ll let Jay know about your name & email and he will create a new license for you…

My license is sold, thank you! But if you are looking to purchase CPM, act now. It’s the best add-on for CoronaSDK I’ve ever used!

PHP Credit Card Validation class using Mod 10 (Luhn) + more!

February 17, 2012 PHP, Programming

Here is another PHP code snippet from my library. This PHP class allows you to validate credit card information before processing it further. Doing all possible off-line checks before sending it to he credit card gateway will help you save time & money…

If the card is valid it will return cleaned & formatted card number along with the card type (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Dinners, Discover, JCB & Maestro).

Besides regular checks, validates the card number against Mod 10 (Luhn) as well as know test card numbers…

Features

Checks if the card number, expiration date & validation numbers are valid.
Checks if the card is expired
Finds & returns the card type.
Checks against the known test card numbers.
Validates the card number using Mod 10 algorithm.

Usage Sample

<?php
require ('mod10.php');
$CARDTYPE = $ErrArr = NULL;

$cc = new CCVal($_POST["card_number"], $_POST["card_expire_month"], $_POST["card_expire_year"], $_POST["card_cvv2"]);

$cstatus = $cc->IsValid();

if ($cstatus[0] == "valid")
{
    $CARDTYPE = $cstatus[1];
    $_POST["card_number"] = $cstatus[2];
    $_POST["card_cvv2"] = $cstatus[3];
}
else
{
    $ErrArr = $cstatus;
}
?>

<?php

require ('mod10.php');

$CARDTYPE = $ErrArr = NULL;

$cc = new CCVal($_POST["card_number"], $_POST["card_expire_month"], $_POST["card_expire_year"], $_POST["card_cvv2"]);

$cstatus = $cc->IsValid();

if ($cstatus[0] == "valid")

{

$CARDTYPE = $cstatus[1];

$_POST["card_number"] = $cstatus[2];

$_POST["card_cvv2"] = $cstatus[3];

}

else

{

$ErrArr = $cstatus;

}

We have stopped developing with the Corona SDK

February 14, 2012 CoronaSDK, Lua

Due to recent developments, we will no longer be using Corona SDK. If anyone wants to know why, all I can say is that’s because of all the little things stacking up on each other such as:

Dropping ArmV6 support, first on Android and now on iOS.
Forcing 32 bit frame buffers for Android (to fix gradient banding issues) which causes slowdowns, without an option to disable it.
Launchpad Analytics appended to each app but simply I do not want Ansca to track my apps… Yes, I know there is an option to disable this but it’ll be back on as soon as you add something like game network, ads, etc…
They are still adding new features while there are major stuff waiting to be fixed such as properly working masks, better (retina, rotation, etc) sprites, etc…
Outdated core engine, Box2D
Bloating app size day by day with the stuff I won’t be using such as Papaya, super rewards, etc.
We wanted iAds, Ansca added InMobi. We wanted iAds, Ansca added Inneractive. We wanted iAds….well, still nothing…
Simulator vs Device inconsistency

I still think CoronaSDK is an good alternative but simply, it’s not suited for us anymore…

Btw, following CoronaSDK projects maintained by us will be discontinued as well. If anyone wants to continue working on those projects may do so freely.

Autocomplete Wordlist for Corona Project Manager (CPM) *

CoronaSDK Enhanced UI Library (ui.lua)

CoronaSDK Proper Orientation Rotation with Animation

* This project is taken over by Jay himself, thank you Jay…

For anyone looking for similar LUA based cross platform alternatives, I would suggest looking at Gideros or Moai SDK + Rapanui

Edit 2: Since I made that post, there were some improvements to the SDK such as Box2D update (appears to be WIP), new sprite API, off-screen culling, etc. I’m glad to see things are improving…
