Why does the GameSalad Viewer time out when I try to load level one.

The game I am working on right now is having problems loading in the gamesalad viewer. My other apps work just fine, but for some reason when I load this game it works until I select A level then i just loads continuously and times out. It loads level one just fine on the computer previewer, but I have included an accelerometer feature into my game so I need to test it on a device. I've tried updating gamesalad, redownloading gamesalad, installing a new viewer, hooking my mac and iphone up to a secure network, and alot of other things. What should I do?

Will it be fixed with the next update?

    After it times out Click the preview on iphone button again in GameSalad without hitting back or anything. Also make sure you don't let your phone go to sleep or anything whiles its loading.

    It's not timing out... I was going to try what you said but it has just been continuously loading the level for like 30 minutes to 40 minutes now. Any other suggestions.

    Sometimes, also, you might want to check how many games are already saved in the 'list' of the viewer - delete them all.

    Then make sure you're not running out of space on your phone, as that can affect things too.

    Hope that helps,

    Thanks, but there are no saved games and I have 15gb available. Any other ideas. I really appreciate the help

    You could try taking out the accelerometer controls maybe? Perhaps you put them in wrong?

    Other than the suggestions I gave, I couldn't really tell you what's wrong with it. Perhaps going through your rules thoroughly might help. Perhaps a 'change scene' behaviour is pointing to one that's no longer there or something?

    Hope you figure it out!
