Advice on updating app created April 2011

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I released a game in April 2011 with whatever the latest stable build was then. I have had reports that the game is appearing as a small rectangle in the top left corner of iPad 3.

I therefore wanted to release an update to fix this.

Anyone know if I can simple publish the old code with the latest stable build to fix this issue or will I require the creation of new graphics? I am happy for the quality on the iPad 3 to look the same as the iPad 2.

Also I used OpenFeint and Game Center in this game - has anything changed on this front that will affect my update?

I don’t want to spent a lot of time as the game only makes me enough for a couple of beers a year:) [import]uid: 7863 topic_id: 30787 reply_id: 330787[/import]

Using the latest builds will fix the iPad3 sizing issue without you having to change any of the code at all.

But when it comes to Openfeint and GC i’m pretty sure some things have changed since 2011. Heres a tutorial from Jonathan in January about using the newer GC api http://www.coronalabs.com/blog/2012/01/17/tutorial-game-center-integration-ios/. As you can see from that the Openfient integration has also changed (and support for OF will also be dropped in the next public release), but hopefully It shouldn’t take too long to change!

Also, im not sure if it’s changed since then as i haven’t needed to implement it in a while, so you may have to browse the documentation :slight_smile: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 30787 reply_id: 123243[/import]
