Corona SDK Ragdoll Sample bug?

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion

Hi summer,

I learned from the engineers that this isn’t a bug. Windows and Android do not automatically downscale and reduce the memory footprint of an image to fit the screen like Mac and iOS does. That is, you’ll run into the same issue if you call display.newImage() with that exact same photo that is too big to fit the screen. Mac and iOS will automatically downscale it, but Windows and Android won’t. So, the solution is what you’re probably doing already: downscale it to the size you need and go from there.

Best regards,

Brent

Hi Brent, the problem isn’t that the image is too big- I already have downsized it. The problem is that it does not show up at all.

Since the image seems to be appearing when you use the sample app (on Android), can you mimic that code in your project and implement it into the rag doll scenario?

#44

If you take a look at github, you’ll see that I copied the code directly from the camera sample app to the ragdoll one!

And the image that gets saved is exactly how large in pixels?
