I am letting AppGameKit resize my 960x640 iphone game to ipad resolution.

i am using 1074 as 1076 does not compile on xcode3.

1 element of my game has those ugly dark borders around the edges when AppGameKit resizes it on the ipad. all works fine on the iphone as all graphics are designed for 960x640 and hence are 1:1

it's just 1 element!!!!

i have tried all possible commands:

SetImageWrapU
SetImageWrapV
SetSpriteSnap
SetMinFilter

making image power of 2 has no effect either

any other command that could get rid of the black lines?

If the image is 960x640, then you will always have black borders when displayed on an iPad if you are using SetVirtualResolution. It has a different width/height ratio.

Is that what you are seeing?

Yeah, the iPhone is 3:2 and the iPad is 4:3 so the screen will either have borders or be stretched.

Never ran into the problem myself. You could try SetSpriteUVBorder. You could also try SetSpriteUV to make the image larger than the sprite.

If it's truly only ONE sprite/image, post the image and the code that creates the sprite, maybe there's something we can spot.

I used to hate the thought of governments having orbital mind control satellites,
but now I can't really seem to care.

Hmm, I wonder if the command is mixed up somehow - the user guide says that setting it to 0 should get rid of defects, and do a full, like for like image paste. Ohhh, I wonder if the border somehow extends the image blending, rather than contracting it.

It's a bit irritating as not all sprites behave the same.

But it's also understandable as sprites are being stretched. Usually I have the artwork match 1:1 the resolution, but in this case i needed a quick iPad scaled up version.
