so i am playing around with it and it does not show that i have unlocked levels after i turn the viewer off and then on again. so is this normal and it should work once the game is out or should it show that the levels are unlocked once i start playing again?

    I'm pretty sure the viewer does not retain save/load values. let me see if I can find confirmation.

    edit, actually, i think I'm wrong. it should work as long as you load all attributes right at the beginning.

    How do you save previous tested games on the viewer?
  • Rob2Rob2 Member Posts: 2,402
    they are saved automatically and then recalled via the recent games button (top left in viewer)

    just tested TS demo and yes it works i just have to do it as he did in the demo.

    @iTouch i don't understand what you mean... you can have a list of games you laded to you device on the viewer, or did you mean how i do the saving and loading?

    How did you figure it out? I was told that to see Saved Attributes that you need to build an Ad Hoc version.

    if you select the game from recent games in the viewer, not from actually hitting the preview on iphone button again and reloading onto the viewer again,save and load works

    Does the data survive a restart of Viewer? Is it persistent (the entire reason to save something?) For instance, if I run my game, save a value, leave Viewer, kill it in the App Manager, run the game by selecting it from the Recent Games, and re-load the value, should it be valid? Because right now, I'm not seeing it as valid. It's be re-loaded as something random.
