Because, Game-Editor use screen 480 * 320 [iPhone1] as the base for IOS devuce so when you export the screen ratio still as iPhone1 screen

Thanks
so, use 480 * 320 resolution Not a problem?

Moreover, GE didn't support too big image on iOS device. It will make your game too lack on the iOS device.

What should be the appropriate size of the image?

What OS are you using on your Mac. I see people post they have Lion and other say they have Mountain Lion.

I use OSX mountain Lion, because Xcode 4 Support with OSX mountain Lion. But at this time Xcode 5 release so you will really need upgrade to the OSX mountain lion. Actually between Lion and Mountain Lion, I didn't feel any different. they are the same.
You can update OSX via iTune.

Well, form my experience, You should not use the image bigger than the screen.
if you really need to use big sprite. Do not use the size over than half of screen. [even half screen size will use a lot of device resources]

OK.
instead of use the 1 image bigger than screen, I can use patchy picture. like this pics. right?
what is can decrease the frame rate in 2d Games at iPhone devices? can I find more information about Principles making 2d games for iPhone devices?

Thanks.

For principals on 2d games it basically do not use huge images and try not to have to many actors at once on view. Just have a fps display and make sure your game does not slow down. Sometimes what will work for you will not work for someone else so play around and see what is your max performance. I keep my apps in good performance by developing them on old iPods so that way when its out all the newer iPods will have it running good. That's just my way to stay in check. Right now if you are going to just make apps for iPhone 5 then use that as your minimum.

Tthanks REDNSX.

So any one has tried using Chai geapp yet? I am still doing updates to mi iPad apps so I still have not used it.

So I finally got around to trig this and just like I thought I get errors. Can you please tell me why I get this:

thank you for any help.

I don't know why it happened also.
Do you change any setting in Xcode?
However, can you capture your screen and tell me your steps you did?

I did the exact steps you put and I get that error.
I will upload a picture of what I have.
I also try it on another Mac and still the same error.

I used the old geapp and that one works and builds on the iPad and iPhone 5(with old screen resolution not iPhone 5 resolution).

I have no idea why you geapp is not working. This seems to be the problem but I don't know how to fix it

After I look on the images.
Don't forget to change the project name to match with your game name such as " game.dat" your project name need to be game.

I didn't see in the resources folder so I do not know what name is it.

I did change it to that name. It just does not let me build on the iPhone 5. You must have something on your Xcode that I need to change on my xcodeproject that is the only thing I could think of.

The old geapp does build on the iPad and iPhone 5.

Can you post screen shot of your Xcode also?
I looked on lik for that error and it's has to do with amrv and I don't know what hat is.

I just upload the images on first page you can check it over there.
http://game-editor.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=13031

I hope the images will be help you. If you can found the point please share to us.
Last time I check it still can work on my iPod 5.

However, I will check and upload the Xcode files again. Just in case.

I did it like 5 times and still get this

Now I can not build on iPad any more also. I am really frustrated about this because now I can't do anything at all.
