Missing images in viewer and ad hoc

imjustmike

I'm used to the viewer being a little bit glitchy, occasionally images are missing and a white box is shown instead. Normally simply restarting both the viewer and gamesalad on the laptop does the job. But I've done that about a dozen times and I still can't get certain images to load. Strangely enough, instead of a white box there's nothing at all.

The images in question are quite large, using them as backgrounds - gamesalad did have to resize them, but I would have thought if gamesalad resized it then it should be able to handle it them? Bit concerned, whilst I'm just testing at this stage, if I can't get backgrounds in the game it will basically kill the game.

So, encountered another issue.

I was previously using large images - twice the width of ipad, and normal height as a background image for an actor of the same time.

I wondered whether it was literally just the image size that was the struggle, so instead I recropped the images to just normal ipad width and height, and adjusted the actors accordingly.

This was the only change I made - now the previewer on the ipad crashes at the load screen, as do any ad hoc builds.

Beginning to hit my head against the table here - anyone else encountered this? Any work arounds?
