Game Center not working in Adhoc?

bobtheturtle

Hi everyone,
I am a pro member and I have set up everything in iTunes connect for Gamecenter. I have leader boards and achievements set up and synced properly in GameSalad. However, I am not getting a Game Center login prompt. I have a button that says

when clicked

GameCenter login

and still nothing happens.

Notes:
1. I am logged into my pro account
2. I am signed out of my gamecenter account and store account.
3. I am connected to internet

please if you Know why this is happening please let me know.

Thank you for your time.

Usually you don't have to put the login behavior in a button, put in somewhere so it will trigger automatically when launching the game, but you can also use your button method.
Have you enabled all Gamecenter options in iTunesConnect , select your app and click view Details, scroll down and check if Game Center is enabled and all achievements and leaderboards are selected

Ya, I have a login behavior in a button for testing and have a login behavior in a timer (after .2 seconds) for the real game. However, nothing is working inside the adhoc. I get the Gamesalad prompt in the viewer signifying it worked though. and yes Everything is enabled in the itunes connect. Good suggestions

I am starting to think that gamesalad isn't recognizing me as a pro member because I read another forum that states, "if you are not a pro member nothing will work on the published version."

@bobtheturtle I doubt your pro-theory, but you can simply find out, put another pro feature (open url for example) in your adhoc. If it's also not working, then you are right and should GS. If not, then there must be a mistake somewhere in your code or in iTunes connect

I had this same problem and it was because I was not logged into Game Center I don't think the login button prompts you to login it only logs you in if your already logged into Game Center on your device. and I see by your #2 your logged out.

bobtheturtle

@slowcut So I suppose, my theory is incorrect because the open url is working fine.

@BBEnk I logged into my GameCenter account through settings and still nothing is popping up. I have a sandbox account for buying IAP, should I use this account or my real account?

slowcut

Try both accounts

BBEnk

Did you try access the leader boards or achievements because it may have already logged you in,and thats why nothing is popping up.

bobtheturtle

I tried both and still nothing. I am positive iTunes connect is set up. I really don't know what to try anymore.

bobtheturtle

@BBEnk Ya, I have a button in game that takes you to the leaderboards but when I click it, nothing happens.

Delete your adhoc, restart your computer, build a new adhoc, restart your test device and upload your game again... Sometimes rebooting is the magic trick

If you are using iOS 7 on your device it will disable logon for your game after three logon attempts have failed or been rejected. Google this to read up on it.

On your device you will need to go to Settings/General/Reset/Reset All Settings to allow your game to login again. It is a pain in the but but that is Apple for you.

bobtheturtle

Unfortunately, The suggested has been unsuccessful. @colander I never got a prompt to let me login so I its not that I have three failed attempts, im just not getting anything.


I really appreciate all the help everyone is inputting!

@FryingBaconStudios I watched both of your tuts and they are really good! However, i have everything set up just like you. I was hoping you had the GC3 video up. Thanks

I'm a PRO user, I'm sure I used the Pro account logon.
And I also added a logon and gamesalad in creator. I'm sure I'm on the make, and checked. And I enable gamecenter ,and add Leaderboards to ituens connect.
But now only display ads and links to other sites.GameCenter doesn't work.Can't logon and show or post scores.I test ad-hoc device.
This and previous advertising bug, as it is a new bug you?

Hi everyone,
I am a pro member and I have set up everything in iTunes connect for Gamecenter. I have leader boards and achievements set up and synced properly in GameSalad. However, I am not getting a Game Center login prompt.

Any advances with this? I just did the same thing as you and am getting no login drop down notification or login prompt from Game Center when testing with an AdHoc build. I have done this in another game and it works fine but, that was awhile ago, and not with Mavericks / iOS7 / GS 10.4.1.

Another difference is that I wrapped this Platform Login behaviour in a button, like you. I'm tempted to just send it forward for Review, and see if it works in the finished version, but I don't want another rejection for this app.

Thanks!
