Portrait Game-Can use Y Accelerometer??

iTouchGamer

Hi all, my next game is in the portrait orientation and I have tried and tried, but the Y accelerometer doesn't work when I test it. Any ideas??

What do you need to do with the accelerometer?
Please explain a little more...
If you want me to take a lokk on your project, you can zip it and send it to sebby_zzzz@hotmail.fr
I'll tell you what's wrong.

Cheers!

Lol, I did change it to Y......when I go to test it on the viewer, and I tilt it forward/backwards nothing happens...

Hello everyone I am using accelerometer in portrait mode for iPhone but left and right working but top and bottom not working .

MotherHoose

the device is in 3 dimensions … the screen is a flat plane with X and Y and Z coordinates … all = O the un-tilted state
Accelerometer references the orientation/rotation of the device
when tilting of the device registers as a user input

Devices > Accelerometer > X and Y … monitor the left and right tilt
Z monitors the device tilt top/bottom … perpendicular to the non-tilted orientation

@gyroscope should be explaining this one!

Thanks, Z monitors the device tilt top/bottom.do you know any tutorial or code for the same.

I recommend you make a very simple project that you can run in the viewer with 3 display text attributes to show you what is going on with the accelerometer. ( you could do it with one display text if you wish )
