Need Help and suggesting my game

Lucalry

Hi, I just wondering, is that possible my background can change slowly after certain times ?
Something like this:
1rst in game, the background is the day, then after about 5-10 minutes background change into sunset, then night, then back to day with sunrise.

And another question, I already publish my game in gamesalad, and save it to my iphone for testing before submit to itunes. The problem is, on the iphone there was a few lag. Sometime, the sound cant load, and every change scene, there always loading time.
Is there any trick to reduce the lag and loading time ?

Thanks,

L

Ya you can do that a few different ways. You could potentially use Timer, but I'm not sure how it handles 5-10 mins. You can always have an attribute that saves the time in which the scene was loaded and take the games clock and - that attribute and compare it by >= the time you want to have elapsed.

For testing you shouldn't have to publish the game if you have the iOS gamesalad tester.

As far as the loading times. You won't be able to get rid of that loading wheel and they are working on reducing the time it takes. Look around for some tricks. For example there is a tool you can download called ImageOptim that reduces image file size.

thanks for the helps,

yes I can change interpolate that background after 1 condition, and then back original condition
for testing, I already sucess with GS Viewer

ImageOptim was a great, but now I cant access that program again, I didn't now why...
