[Resolved] Lack of Background

Hello everyone. I am in the process of releasing my game. It is already available on Android. I am not attempting to release it on IOS but for some reason on my mac I don’t get an output window to show bugs like I do on my windows version. Now I am using the same code that works on Android but for some reason my backgrounds aren’t showing up on three out of the four mini games I have. Does anyone have any idea why this would happen? Any knowledge various file names or anything like that which would work on android but not on ios? Plus when I put my game on on my ipod it won’t do anything. It just freezes up from the start. This game works fine on Android so I am at a loss. [import]uid: 49863 topic_id: 26406 reply_id: 326406[/import]

To get that debug window on a Mac just launch CoronaTerminal that you’ll find in the Corona folder, other than that do you have any other images in your app besides backgrounds that work? [import]uid: 14018 topic_id: 26406 reply_id: 107118[/import]

Yes I have a bunch and they are all working. The only ones that aren’t are the backgrounds for three of the four games.

On the Mac, make sure you start Corona Terminal and not Corona Simulator. Corona Terminal will start the terminal (for messages and bugs) and then the Simulator.

Make sure your images are 32-bit images and not indexed PNGs.

If you run your apps on iOS and connected to your Mac with Xcode running, the Xcode console may provide some information about what is wrong.

OK for the background the error says. CGBitmapContextCreate: unsupported color space. [import]uid: 49863 topic_id: 26406 reply_id: 107127[/import]

So changing them to 32-bit did fix it. Not sure why my artist didn’t use 32 bit on those but did the others. Now if I can just figure out why the app freezes immediately on my ipod I can finally get this thing released. [import]uid: 49863 topic_id: 26406 reply_id: 107133[/import]
