Sample app question

[fun173]

Hello everyone,

First time corona user here and i’m having an issue. I have downloaded the “Debug Draw” sample app and made some modifications to it which include my own pictures. Everything works fine in the android simulator but when i load it onto my droid eris the screen will load but no objects will fall, its like the program never starts. Im sorry but i’m a major noob and i don’t know what is wrong. Could someone please give me some help. [import]uid: 17198 topic_id: 5186 reply_id: 305186[/import]

Check your picture files and file names, they need to match your code exactly.

You can post your code here if you want us to take a look. [import]uid: 6787 topic_id: 5186 reply_id: 17221[/import]

I will Post the code here. This is what i have in the main.lua file. Apologies if i have royally screwed something obvious up

All my file names match

psd files are photoshop files !

you meant PNG right ?

psd files are not going to work in corona
