Hi I’m a Flash developer with a few apps in the app store that were built in Flash. I’m about ready to jump ship to Corona but have a quick question.
My ultimate goal is to release my games for iOS. Can I develop on a Windows machine and just move the files to a Mac for the final build or do I have to develop on the Mac too? I have a desktop that I like to work on at home and it’s Windows.
Thanks!
Rich

That’s the cool thing about Corona SDK – it’s just Corona no matter whether you’re working on a mac or Windows machine.
I’m not sure the Windows simulator has the iPhone/iPad skins yet, but I hear they’re coming. Anyway, the skins are just a way for the simulator to look cool and change the size of the screen, but if you’re taking advantage of Corona’s resolution independent features that’s not a huge deal anyway.
Go for it!

Well that’s how I work right now!
I tried to do everything on windows using CS5.5 but when I uploaded to the iphone 2 things happened:
I decided to give Corona a try, so I exported all the assets and started to build the new project. It took me 3 days and the app was running on Windows using the Android skins. Then I emailed everything to my mac mini and opened the project using the iPhone simulator and it WORKED!!
And guess what, I was using the free membership because first I wanted to be sure that it could do the job.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

I did the same, I built everything on my windows and then when I bought a mac this week I just copied my files from my windows over to the mac and everything worked without needing to change any of the coding. [import]uid: 69700 topic_id: 11665 reply_id: 42470[/import]
Great, thanks for the input. Looks like I’ll be moving from the world of AS to Lua. [import]uid: 72038 topic_id: 11665 reply_id: 42472[/import]
