APK Compiler No Longer Producing Two Versions (Arm7 and Arm8)

[PEB]

I just got around to installing the newest APK Compiler. (Thanks, Andreas, for the update!)
When I tried compiling one of my scripts, I noticed that I only get one version now, when I used to get two (arm7 and arm8).

Is there a new settings option that I need to select to get both versions to compile like before?

arm7 was the 32bit wasnt ?

probably has to do with the fact that new adroid studio /google has dropped support for this

If google is to be trusted, even Android Studio Panda still supports creating armeabi-v7a apk's.
Could it be that the apks now contain both versions in one apk? Although the apks would probably be bigger then.

Yes, that's exactly what's happening here. The APKs generated by APK Compiler 5.0 contain both the arm7 and arm8 versions because that's the way the Android build chain works now.

Thats quite cool. I did recompile one of my games with HW11 and Compile 5.0 and noticed the combined apk now is a bit bigger that the old arm7 apk, but smaller than the old arm8 apk. In total the apks takes about half the disk space now.
