Great tutorial thanks !

One remark

"On Retina display devices, 1 point = 2 pixels" - should be 2 x 2 pixels

These are really great tutorials. Thanks for sharing.

I wanted to share one thing that tripped me up. The article states uses the line

[self setTouchEnabled:YES];

however, I had to change the line to

[self setIsTouchEnabled:YES];

to get it to work properly. I am a total noob, so I don't know if this has something to do with the version of cocos2d (2.x) or Xcode (4.5.1), or something that I messed up elsewhere in the code.

Thanks again!

I have a question about installing cocos2d 2.1(Unstable) I currently have Cocos2d 2.0 (Stable) installed. Do I have to delete this and install the unstable version? Or can I install the unstable version and it will run smoothly? Thanks.

hey Ray, I'm new to objective c(but not programming). I have everything working fine except the sounds. I don't have any errors on them or anything, they just won't play. Can you give me any reason for this?

Thanks!

I fixed that one by following http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/15237, changing the CCLayer class to a CCLayerColor. Ie in HelloWorldLayer.h change

Code: Select all

@interface HelloWorldLayer : CCLayer

to

Code: Select all

@interface HelloWorldLayer : CCLayerColor
