I've been testing new versions of a few games using the new MindJolt
preloader ads, and they seem to work fine. However, no ads show while
testing - only a preloader bar. Is that intended, and will ads show
when the games go live? Just asking to be sure I don't miss the
important first days' of impressions.

The same question I asked Marc yesterday and here is his answer:

"Do not worry about the black box instead of the ad. For every game
that updates, we need to set a flag, and until the flag is set, the
ads will appear black. You can ignore that in the testing."

Hi Srdjan, Frederik77,
It is correct that when a game was running third party ads and is
upgraded to the MindJolt ad API, a flag needs to be set in order to
see the ads in the test system. This had been done manually so many
developers in this situation would indeed see the black screen instead
of the ad.

We have coed an upgrade so that this flag will now be set upon any new
upload. Once this change pushes to production, all ads on the test
system should work as expected. I will let you know when this goes
live.
Yours, Marc
