Hey, all. So I am getting a background designed for my first iphone game and wondering what screen resolution to build for. I’m still new at alot of this but from what i’ve gathered so far the iphone 4 is 640X960 and the previous models are 320X480. Right? Ok, so if i have a background build at 640X960 will i be able to easily downscale to the previous models or would i need to do it at 320X480 and upscale to the iphone4? Thanks in advance!

If you want to have the background at the lower resolution and have it automatically upscaled you can do that. But I’m not sure if it works the other way around.
If you want to have two versions of the background, SD and Retina HD and have them loaded in depending on which device is being used, you can do that also.

Refer to the section “What about scaling down rather than up?” in that link. [import]uid: 12108 topic_id: 5622 reply_id: 19241[/import]
