Resolution Independence Question
A couple of quick questions a can't seem to find the answer to.
I understand that if I make an ipad game with images 2048x1536 and tick the Resolution Independence button it will down res those images to 1024x768.
1- Does the game then carry two sets of images (high and low) or does it depend on the device thats downloading the game. So old devices download the small images and the new ipad would download the high images?
2- If I have made my images 1024x768 and tick the Resolution Independence button will it try to down res the images the same percentage as if they were 2048x1536 or is GS clever enough to realize it shouldn't do anything?
Thanks in advance.

2. it will downres the image, it will assume that the 1024x768 image is for a 512x384 actor on screen.
