Adding Backends to WinRT Metro Apps( Windows 8 app backend )

If you're really into the app development, WinRT is one of the most interesting new platform which is coming to release soon. App developer like myself can't wait to develop fun and utility apps for the new platform. Nowadays, every app contains social and backends features to make the app always connected through different devices and platform.

WinRT main feature is the connectivity and you can imagine how beautiful your app will be if they looks the same on the Desktop PCs, Tablets and Phones as well. What even all the data are sync through all the devices. For example, a to-do list which is created with the desktop PCs can also be able to view the same data from the mobile while going out?

With the help of CloudyRec, it becomes to add backend service in a very easy and handy way.

CloudyRec is a server-side backend platform for mobile apps and games. Backend implementation for mobile apps typically requires complicated server setups, API developments, server monitoring, management and maintenance processes. CloudyRec provides a complete managed backend platform for mobile apps that can be set up and ready to use instantly.

CloudyRec is free for all developers in any development stages and it means that the developers don't have to pay a penny while testing or developing the app. 

You can go to http://CloudyRec.com to sign up to start adding of backend database into your uber Metro app development.

 I am planning to write a tutorial of creating a simple Todo-List metro style app using CloudyRec as a backend service. Please subscribe the blog to read more about CloudyRec tutorials to boost the games  and app backend development.

Optimising Unity new UI System

UI/Sprite textures aren't packed into a texture atlas by default. A tag is needed to group them. Read the documentation / tutorial on the sprite packer. Overlapping text/graphic boundaries with another text/graphic will create additional draw calls, even if the actual visual graphics do not overlap. Grids (other layouts too I presume) need minimum 1 pixel spacing between items, else items are considered overlapping and will create additional draw calls. Images with alpha 0 are still rendered. They are rendered with alpha 0 even though they are not seen. Unity currently does not support non-rectangle shapes as Sprites, so using the TightSpitePacker policy will cause image artifacts. When UI objects are offscreen, they are still batched (rendered as well?). Possible solutions: Change parent to non-UI parent, as UI Camera will no longer detect it Change layer of panel so UI Camera will no longer detect it Disable gameobject when off-screen ScrollRect performance tuning S

Setting up perforce server on Windows and allows connections from other local machines

Download p4server.exe for windows and install it. Restart the computer after you've installed it. Since it will install as windows service, you don't have to start the service and you're now ready to connect using p4v from local machine. But there will be a problem when you're trying to connect from another service since the perforce service is running on localhost:1666 so it only accept local connection only. You need to bind to 0.0.0.0:1666 but it will be quite hard and have a risk to change default perforce config files.. What you can do is you can modify the host file in other remote machines to connect to the server computer. In windows, hosts file is located at Windows/etc/driver folder and on Mac it's located at sudo nano /etc/hosts add the following line to the host file [your server machine local ip address] perforce Now in the p4v client of the remote machines, you will be able to connect using perforce:1666 Note : Don't forget to tu

If you're using Unity Asset server on Windows, you may notice that you are getting Could not start server.

You will have to reset the password or set it to never expire to avoid happening from this kind of error. Here are the steps below to fix this problem.
