I have a question that maybe someone can help with... After bringing in my code to Xcode, most of my images are sized properly in the build/run I perform, but there are a few (mainly bg images) that are 1/4 the size they should be.

Just a little background... I used Tier 1 and set a virtual resolution, not percentages.

Any help or hints as to what is going on would be greatly appreciated. I'd just like my images to be 1:1 in size compared to how they were running in AGK.

Thanks!

How big are the images? There is a maximum size that iOS works with.

Thanks for the reply. Most of the images that are smaller on the xcode side are 1136x640.

It's not that AppGameKit won't read the file. It is how the platform handles it.

I experienced a similar issue when I tried to do something with an image that was in excess of 1024 in width. I would have to dig through my code to figure out how I got around it. But I think it was by explicitly setting the sprite size to what I knew the image to be. I haven't really had time since my move up to Alaska to work on my WIP or AppGameKit at all, yet.

Well, is also an AppGameKit bug, cause if you try to call the images with the @2x it fail.
If i remember well, also Paul said a thing like this.

But i'm not really sure.

Long life to Steve!

Thanks for the info. I just made the images smaller, to about 1024 pixels, and it work out just fine. But in the future, I may need to use pix bigger than 1024.
