GameCenter Troubles! Not recognised

beefy_clyro

Hi All

Ok so its been a while since i setup GameCenter for a game but I'm pretty sure i've done it right but upon testing, it doesn't appear so.

So within iTunes Connect i have my app waiting binary upload, i've gone to GameCenter and enabled this and created 3 leaderboards. They are done in the format of - com.kc8.starserum, 1, 2 and 3.

Then in my game i have a button that when switched to on, it logs the player in. Unfortunately, when i do this i just get an error message saying that 'This game is not recognised by Game Center'.

Then if i hit the only available button saying Done, i get ' There was an error logging into Game Center .. The request could not be completed because tho supplication is not recognised by Game Center ... Cancel'.

Anyone had this error before or know why im getting this message?

Thanks in advance

I believe there is 2 places in itunes connect you have to activate GameCenter. After enabling and creating your leaderboards you have to go into the actual app details and then scroll down and enable there also.

Also you need to be using the same Bundle ID on your adhoc profile as what is setup on your itunes connect app listing.

Those are the only places I can think you might be missing.

I suppose you're testing an adhoc, right? Do the adhoc use the same Bundle ID as the final build?

For example if your final build use com.kc8.starserum you should use it also for the adhoc to successfully test GC. To do this go to developer.apple.com in the provisioning portal create a new development provisioning using the same ID as the final app. Then you should be able to test everything without problems.

I don't now if I explained myself correctly but this is how I do every time and I never had any problems.

Edit: I should learn to type faster

@tenrdrmer and @MarkOnTheIron ... I think it is the bundle id, the actual app itself is com.kc8.starserum and my development bundle id was .starserumbeta ... I have just built a new version with the correct bundle id, am uploading to TestFlight now and will then confirm if all is sorted ... Im assuming that is the issue though. Thanks for the help, will update shortly
