Hi guys!
UE4 is also extremely popular engine, definitely it's worth supporting :)
Many thanks!

Instagram support

why not add instagram support?

or option to convert gif to mp4 when it gets too large

Enable cropping recordings

Missing after-share callbacks on Android

Move configuration from Megacool tab to Tools tab in Unity Editor

Unity rotation 90 degrees when opening universal link

This is a bug that Unity has to fix. Temp. fix:

void Start(){
        // Check if the screen orientation is not landscape
        if (Screen.orientation == ScreenOrientation.Portrait || 
            Screen.orientation == ScreenOrientation.PortraitUpsideDown) {
            StartCoroutine (FixLandscape ());
        } else {
            // Nothing to worry about, call Megacool as normal
            StartMegacool ();
        }
    }
    IEnumerator FixLandscape(){
        // Turn the screen to landscape left to "reset" to the right size
        Screen.orientation = ScreenOrientation.LandscapeLeft;
        // Let the rotation happen
        yield return new WaitForSeconds(0.5f);
        // Go back to auto rotation to reset to the right orientation
        Screen.orientation = ScreenOrientation.AutoRotation;
        //Call Everything Megacool related
        StartMegacool();
    }

Missing analyze first frame color table on Android

Missing last frame overlays on Android

Save gif to PhotoAlbum (by default)

Is there a way to save the gif to photoalbum by default - in case a crash happens before social share

Missing direct-to-channel sharing on Android

Capture doesn't work with multi-threaded rendering

Proguard complains if building with gradle

Missing fallback images on Android

Memory spikes when sharing

iOS 11 social share issue

Huawei devices never call `didPossiblyCompleteShare`

Huawei has their own intent chooser which behaves a bit strangely, thus we're not able to tell the difference between whether the user selected a channel or not, thus on Huawei devices the share listener will always have the didDismissShare callback triggered no matter what the user actually did.

Add overlay to entire GIF

Similar to last frame overlay, but for every frame.

Pause feature

Start / Stop are standard gif camera methods that all the other gif packages provide - can you also include a pause feature

Missing share tracking on Android

Referrals doesn't work on Smartfren Andromax devices

Recording and sharing should work though, but we don't have any of these devices available in any of our test setups, so it's a bit hard to fix.

Cropping on iOS from Unity is broken

Unity SDK overwrites existing Android manifest

This should merge the changes we need with the existing manifest, if any.

Rendering camera doesn't include all game elements

More gif customization features

• Custom first frame delay
• Force-include first frame (similar to forceAdd for timelapse last frame)

Direct-to-Twitter composer squeezes the preview to a square

path / option to save gif locally

is the path to the last recorded gif available?

Unity builds can not be run on the iOS simulator

Missing forceAdd for timelapse recordings on Android

Sharing to whatsapp crashes whatsapp

Enable having multiple previews at once

No media found when sharing

I've integrated Megacool to our game to test it out on Android.

I'm able to share a message into Slack using StartRecording, StopRecording and Share, but unfortunately the shared page contains no GIF of the capture and looks pretty bland in result:

The log contains things like:

Thread MegacoolRecording: Skipping deletion of /data/user/0/xxx/files/Megacool/D41D8CD98F00B204E9800998ECF8427E due to missing state file
getRecordingScore called for recording not using the highlightoverflow strategy (was latest)
Thread MegacoolRecording: Failed to wait on semaphore, got 110: Connection timed out
Thread MegacoolRecording: Failed to get bytes from native frame capture

We are using Unity 2019.4.23f1, URP and I have disabled Vulkan.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Increase conversion with original "Get is on GooglePlay" button

Hi guys!
Why is there pink button on the landing page? Did you try split testing and pink button performed better?

Can we change it to original 'Get it on GooglePlay' button?
https://imgurhd.ru/i/3zxc_orig.png

In many countries people are afraid to download something from sources other than GooglePlay (because of frequent mobile one-click subscription scams)
Probably google's button could perform better.

Adding the MegacoolManager to a scene drops FPS on some devices

FPS can drop down to 10-20, depending on the app. Not sure what the common denominator between the devices are yet, but we have found a potential workaround that needs some more development and testing internally before we can publish a fix.
