Hi All,
What's the max size we can set the screen size for GameSalad Arcade? I see quite a few games that are pretty big and I think they're iPad Landscape sized (1,024x768) but wanted to check.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks,
HK

You are only limited by the performance of the engine there is no max size.
Ok, thanks
A good size to publish an ARCADE game in is 480 x 320. For some reason the publishing process changed the size to three times that though which was pretty cool and my game ran VERY VERY smooth even with all the timer and non-tabled attributes.
480x320 is really small for desktop. I see a bunch of games that are much bigger in GS Arcade and look good. What setting is that for Platform in the Project Info? The GS Arcade default looks like 480x320 but it's so small. Is the larger size that most people are using iPad Landscape setting? Thanks
Well, if you use the Arcade setting and then change the 100% (next to the screen size settings) to 200% it'll look like it is larger and the right size.
Thanks for the tip. Regarding "change the 100% (next to the screen size settings) to 200%". I can't find this - I don't see a screen size setting anywhere. Where exactly is this option? Many thanks!
When you play the game, in the preview there should be a button to the top rightish that shows the size info. Haha. Perfect. This is in the mac preview. The 100% right next to where the arrow is pointing. I hope that is right. I don't have a mac
I think this just zooms in/out during the preview, but doesn't change the size of the screen when you publish.
Yes. That zooms in and out. GS Arcade automatically zooms it in for you though during publishing
GS team told me Lagacy Web size will probably work for the size I'm looking for. Will try that. Thanks for everyone's input.
