Anyone know an Xcode Guru (Paid)

Jel

I need to rebuild my GS built app to Xcode and add some new features. This goes out to everyone but especially the sous, TSB, FMG, ORBZ, and head chefs. I really need help finding someone trustworthy.

Thanks for you help in advance. Jel

@jel
I think @motherhoose dabbles in xcode

JohnPapiomitis

post on the cocos2d forum or something like that. Youll get alot of responses and theres alot of trusted members there.

@johnpapiomitis
Yes, but they don't know GS he needs a gs member to create his GS game in Xcode, well that's what I think he means anyway!

JohnPapiomitis

thats irelavant though, anyone that can program a whole game in obj c can wrap there head around gs logic and figure out whats going on.

Jel

Thanks for the feedback guys. It's a bit of a shame but in the end the it will need to be completely rebuilt in Xcode. I'll check out the Cocos2D forum when I get chance.

Your right,

JohnPapiomitis

yeah since most people dont code they fail to relize exactly how quick and easy gamesalad makes it for us. Like a timer in gamesalad, you drag in a timer behavior specify how long and your good to go.

Now if you were programming you would use a for loop statement. (ill use c# as a example because its currently what im working with)

You have to declare a new variable inside the for loop to add as the timer counter, declare the initial value of that counter variable, specify by a <, >, <= , >= and a number following it at what point you want the timer to stop, specify how much you want to add to the timer counter variable every frame, and then put any behaviors you want to execute off the for loop statement in a function under it. Then if by accident you mess up the for loop and get it stuck in a infinte loop, it can crash the sdk or compiler and at a worse cause senario freeze your computer.

Gamesalad is a nice tool

....................................................I was considering opening up Xcode and making something bigger then a "hello world" app which, I tried and suceeded with....... But now I think I'm gonna duck under the covers from Xcode!

XCode and Obj-C are awesome. They both get this bad wrap, like it's terribly complicated, but they aren't. They are just powerful. My first language I programmed in was Visual Basic, but I think Objective-C is much better and even easier. If any of you have made a fairly "complicated", if that's what you want to call it, app in Gamesalad- you can learn to program in Objective-C.

Take Pap's example, here is timer in Obj-C:

scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval:invocation:repeats:

It's a great language.

What style/type of app is it ?

Jel

Hi Rob2

It's basically a wallpaper based app.

Hi TSB,

Late night again for you or very early start ; )

I really want to rebuild it myself but I have no time at the moment (don't ask, I'm kind of loosing my mind with the situation) and I need it in a bit of a hurry as a competitor developed a very similar app that has a couple of simple feature that GS doesn't have and I now getting a lot of negative reviews because I don't have these features.

I'll send you more details in a PM.

Thanks Jel

Jel

Hi TSB,

It was an email in the end to your gmail address as PM's don't seem to be working at the moment.

Thanks Jel
