If you are already logged in, App.checkSession can be used to pull your user info without starting a new session.

See http://www.newgrounds.io/help/passport/ for a break down of how all the session components are meant to work.

The Unity Library should handle all that if you are using it correctly though.

Are you trying to unlock a medal instantly just to see if it works? If so, you may be sending the API call before the user object has been loaded from the server. You shouldn't make any unlock calls until after your login stuff has called your onLoggedIn() method.

Hi PsychoGoldfish,

thank you for your support. You were totally right with your suspicion of me trying to call the API before the core was initilialized..
also I was trying to run logic in the same method as calling the API, and not in the callback - that's what caused most of my issues. After resolving that, it went much smoother.
I have a last question - it's not a blocker anymore, because I hacked my way around it, but I wanted to understand how the medal.unlocked property works.

If I check the medal.unlocked property in the callback, it is alwaysfalse.
If I get the list of medals, the medal has the "correct" value (either, true or false depending on whether the medal has been unlocked or not).

Is this intended?
I implemented an ingame medal-notification, and off course I only want it to show when unlocking the medal for the first time. But since the medal.unlocked value from the callback seemed broken I now do the following:
On startup get list of all medals
Make Dictionary of medals and their unlock status
Whenever I get a medal-unlock-callback, I check my dictionary of the medals whether it was unlocked or not, and show the notification.
Then I also update the status of the medal in my dictionary.

It works fine, but it feels quite hacky.


What's the status with in-game ads? It sounds like it's not part of NG.io but can I still use the old API? if so, could I get access to http://www.newgrounds.com/projects/games/826040/apitools for reference, or can I get my project's ads approved, if that helps me learn the tools? (this project will never get published)

Any guide on how to use this on Clickteam fusion 2.5, Game Maker 1.4 and RPG maker MV?

Response to Newgrounds.io Help & Support 2018-07-06 04:13:33


I'm having a little problem. When I test my game the score doesn't seem to go to the scoreboard. I didn't use much code. Just the stuff from the start...

- Create an Empty GameObject (Ctrl+Shift+N)
- Select the new GameObject and rename it to "Newgrounds.io Object" from the Inspector panel.
- While still on the Inspetor panel, click the 'Add Component' button.
- Select Scripts -> io.newgorunds -> Core
- Fill in the App_id and Aes_base64_key properties with the values found in the 'API Tools' section of your Newgrounds.com project.

and this code to send the highscore...

public void SubmitScore(int id, int value)
{
io.newgrounds.components.ScoreBoard.postScore submit_score = new io.newgrounds.components.ScoreBoard.postScore();
submit_score.id = id;
submit_score.value = value;
submit_score.callWith(ngio_core);
}

Is there something I'm missing? I checked and the game is connecting when I start the game. I'm also not getting any errors.

Response to Newgrounds.io Help & Support 2018-07-06 21:35:27


Now I'm getting this error
"Unable to cast object of type 'ResultModel' to type 'postScore'. "

Any ideas on how to fix it?

Response to Newgrounds.io Help & Support 2018-07-06 23:13:09


Just wanted to say, I figured it out. Apparently I had the wrong Aes_base64_key

I'm having this same issue... I think I've narrowed it down to be something to do with what Unity WebGL template you use -- I've noticed if I use the default Unity WebGL template(with the fullscreen button) it doesn't produce this error, but when I do that it has other odd issues(it actually makes most of my shaders not render, my textures show up as pink boxes and whatnot... seems to me like it's corrupting the game files(I got a memory access out of range error at one point too...)but that's just my guess). When I play the game locally it all works fine.

If I switch to my own Unity WebGL template it doesn't have the pink textures but it crashes on launch with the rules[r].selectorText error above... The odd thing is I had it working at one point and then it started doing this... Not sure what I did differently to get it working though.

Something I've just noticed is that if I delete the uploaded file before uploading another build it seems to behave differently(as in, the pink textures aren't there sometimes, etc)... So it could be a cache issue? I've tried incognito mode with Chrome and it's not working though... very strange.

Response to Newgrounds.io Help & Support 2018-12-09 10:18:53


Sorry for the double post (I couldn't find a way to edit my previous post...) but I was able to work-around this by adding a null check for rules[r] and rules[r].selectorText around line ~213 in the newgroundsIOPlugin.jslib file. Furthermore, I think the issue I was experiencing with the textures going pink was a separate problem probably related to my browser cache.

Hi PsychoGoldfish,

I am trying to add medals and scoreboard features to my wick game. I tried loading up the newgrounds.io's wick file in alpha.wickeditor.com site. Its not loading up.

I tried to load it using the legacy editor. But just found it was closed down.

Do look into it, when you are free, cause the newground's wick file doesn't work anymore.

Response to Newgrounds.io Help & Support 2019-07-23 09:27:09

Yeah, Wick is still undergoing changes, so pretty much any work I had done with it is already obsolete, and since the jam has ended I haven't really taken any time to get the API working in it again. @luxapodular had tried porting my example, but I'm not sure how well it works for every feature. You can grab his port at https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/500735280815538187/586637769980379176/Newgrounds.io_WickEditor1.0.wick


Otherwise, if you want to try implementing it yourself, the pure javascript library is available at https://bitbucket.org/newgrounds/newgrounds.io-for-javascript-html5/src/default/


I basically pasted the minified js file into the first frame of a wick project, and created a global instance of Newgrounds.io.core I could use throughout my game, then added a layer that could show medals as they were unlocked and did a little animation. Scoreboards were a bit more complicated, but all the code to make them work is there.

Now, ANY platform should be able to use the API. The only requirements are the ability to encode and decode JSON objects, and post over HTTP.

Newgrounds.io is launching it's public beta today. We already have some libraries available for platforms that target HTML5, and complete documents on how you can build your own libraries from any other platform.

Newgrounds.io is going in to public beta today, so if you start using it, and need help or support, post in this thread and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.

If you plan on implementing Newgrounds.io into a platform we haven't covered yet, you should also check out the Newgrounds.io Developers Group. I'll be posting any major updates to the server API in there, so joining the group will keep you in the loop.

Now, before anyone DOES post for help in here, make sure you have already checked the Getting Started and Help pages on www.newgrounds.io, or the help documents for any Newgrounds.io libraries you are using. There's a lot of useful information already out there.

Also, we haven't implemented any NEW features at the time of this post, we were primarily concerned with updating the network interface and encryption options so the whole thing is a lot more platform agnostic.

The 'save data' feature is still being rebuilt (the old version was VERY Flash-oriented), and is not currently available. When it becomes available I'll post about it in here and in the developer group.

You can also follow the project on Twitter, I'll be posting news and changes there as well.


Can someone develop something similar to this : https://cutt.ly/LwXFl4B

9 times out of 10, if you can load scores but not post them, it's a problem with your encryption key. Make sure you have that configured properly and the key was copy/pasted properly. Also make sure you are using the newgrounds.io API on your api tools page. It still defaults to the old Flash API there.

Thanks a lot :) that actually worked, I just changed to the new api and used the new token and it worked :) Stupid me :)

I am just wondering if the scoreboard is visible in preview mode? I am using the newgrounds.io and I've done some console.log and I see my scoreboards and I also see in "ScoreBoard.getScores" that there is scores submitted. But I don't see any Scoreboard in preview mode so not sure if it gonna work when I publish it.

The project previews currently have no newgrounds.io views. What you see in getScores is accurate.


Hey, I'm trying to get wrap my head around NG.io for my unity projects. I've got it set up and I'm able to unlock medals and submit scores! I want to get the most I can out of this API. That said, I have a quick question:

How do you check if a medal has already been unlocked? I imagine it has to do with Medal.getList, but I'm not sure how to access the data (I'm shockingly unfamiliar with how lists work...)

You can do something like this (assuming ngioCore is an initialised core component):


// Get the medal list
var medalList = new components.Medal.getList();
medalList.callWith(ngioCore, OnGetMedalList);

Which calls the OnGetMedalList method when it's done.

using System.Linq;

[SerializeField] int id = 0; // medal ID of the medal you want to unlock

void OnGetMedalList(getList getList)
{
    List<medal> medals = getList.medals.Cast<medal>().ToList(); // cast the result into a list of medals
    medal current = medals.FirstOrDefault(m => m.id == id); // first medal with our ID
    if (current == null)

    if (!current.unlocked)

        var medalUnlock = new components.Medal.unlock {id = current.id};                      
        try
        {
            medalUnlock.callWith(ngioCore, OnMedalUnlocked); 
        } catch (InvalidCastException)
        {
            //! Failed to unlock (see enable network data log)

If you just want the list, the first line is enough. You can then pick a medal from the list (e.g. the one with ID we want here) and check if it's unlocked "yourMedal.unlocked". Make sure it's not null or wrong (if you supply a bad ID, for example). If you're getting InvalidCastException (which I catch in the code above), that seems to mean it couldn't unlock the medal / get the list; presumably because the core component wasn't initialised properly (you can check the exact reason by enabling network data output: ngioCore.output_network_data = true).


I don't think it's a big issue if you unlock a medal twice (it won't fail or cause an error), but if you're showing a medal popup, for example, you don't want to show it twice to the same user, at least not during the same game session.


Also, the above code doesn't check for people who aren't logged in / unregistered users; and for those the unlocked property will always be false (I think), so you might want to keep a list of medals unlocked during the current game session somewhere to avoid spamming medal popups – or just don't show popups to people who aren't logged in.
