I have gone through gamesalad publishing process and finally i downloaded the game.
Im on PC version of gamesalad the generated file is xx.app.zip
uploading to testfilight never succeed i don't know why
1-i have tried moving the xx.app.zip to Payload folder and zip as ipa
2-extracting content to a folder named Payload and then zip it and change to .ipa
3-change the ext to .app and do the same to Payload folder
4-change xx.app.zip to xx.ipa
5-extracting to a folder named xx.app then moved it inside Payload and then zip it and change to .ipa
i keep get the same error message in Test flight
'Invalid IPA: The file is not a valid zip file. Are you sure this is a valid IPA?'
and some times this message
'Invalid IPA: could not find the info.plist. Are you sure this is a valid IPA?'
Please help me
there is some thing to say
i use a bundle identifier as a random text because i don't have apple developer account yet.
Cant sign my game because i am on PC

you can't download an iOS app on the PC, it won't sign. it has to be downloaded on a mac, signed and then you can upload to testflight.
you made my day friend thanks
@jonmulcahy how Do I create an IPA on the Mac With Gamesalad? I Tried to Upload a GameName.App to test flight and it didn't work.
Put GameName.App in folder with name Payload
Compress the GameName.App once it is inside the Payload folder
Compress the Payload folder once GameName.App is compressed inside
Click on the compressed file (compressed payload folder) and click get info
Change it to GAMENAME.IPA
Click CHANGE TO IPA.
Upload to TestFlight
@MagoNicolas
it's simple,
that's it!
OK I'M ON MAC NOW, but i don't have apple developer account can i test my game without signing ?
you need to have a dev account to test on a device, apple's rules.
No. You cannot. The Gods do not allow it.
For Me, it worked creating IPA and uploading it to test flight, But It doesn't work to install the App on a Pc via itunes :S
Someones know how to solve it?
