I have been trying to download the CPMStar Interstitial ads extension, but I cannot find the download link anywhere on the extension download page - http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,26486.0.html   Does anyone know where I can download this?

Hi Rob.

 I've now added the extension and am trying to pop a CPM star ad, but nothing is happening.  I have a valid cpmstar sponsorship ID and i've put it in the Show CPMSTAR AD block as well as in the settings and i've installed the standard version of the extension as i'm running stencyl 3.2.  I'm not getting anything at all in the log viewer when the block is called.

Do you have any  what i'm doing wrong?  Is the whitelisting mandatory?

Thanks!

I last tested this in late December.  An ad did not show on the first run of the game but did show on the second.  So test a few more times and see if you still see no ads.

Hi,  it's still not working. 

Doesnt seem to do anything at all, so maybe i'm doing something fundamentally wrong.  Here's a couple of quick questions;

- Is there a particular pixel size I have to make the swf? 
- or is there a particular place I have to place the ad (i did it at x:50 y:50)
- Do i have to place the swf on an actual web server to get it to work?
- Im a paid member, so could I try stencyl 3.3 somehow to see if it fixes it?

thanks again!

The last time I tested was on a beta build before public 3.2, but using 3.3 I can no longer see ads.  I'll look into this within a few days.

Hi Rob,

Did you get a chance to look at the CPMStar extension?  I've upgraded to 3.3 now and using the 3.3 extension you made, but still not getting any ads showing.  I have the correct sponsorship ID in place and I think i've done everything correctly.  It gets a bit further on 3.3 in that I get some logs now from the extension when it tries to run, but nothing displays.  The logs are:

true
[object boot_0503]
complete
init

If I run it again in the same session, I get another log from the extension:

The ad is already displaying.

Obviously, this is because I havn't closed the ad with the close block. So, it looks to me like it should be working, but it's just not displaying for some reason.

Could I be doing something simple and wrong?  Displaying the ad in the background or something?

Thanks in advance!

I forgot about this one, but I don't think it would help to look anyway as the SDK source is in Stencyl, not my extension.  Maybe it needs an update.

Hi Rob,

Who would I speak to do you think to try and get this working?  Would be great to get CPM star ads working in my games. :)

Thanks,
Gamenet

Does the CPMStar preloader work?

No, I havn't seen any ads at all.  I have the sponsor ID in the settings and I have then used the 3.3 extension to try and pop an interstitial as well.  But I'm not getting anything.  Do I have to do something with the whitelists or have the swf hosted somewhere in particular maybe?

I downloaded the CPMStar files to check for an update, but they haven't been modified since 2008.  I have no idea what the problem is then.
