in Working with GS (Mac)
Yup, my game was rejected because it crashed on IOS 7 on iPads. My game ran perfectly on whatever the previous IOS 6 version was... on iPhone, Itouch, & IPad. I didn't check it with IOS 7 due to the fact that it isn't even out yet. ...Be warned everybody.

    Yeah, if you've been reading through the Weekly Updates and the newly posted Roadmap, you'd know GS is tackling iOS7 support. Should come out and be implemented soon in the next stable build. Just wait for it :)

    Hi Admins,
    Is there any updated info on a fix for Gamesalad games crashing "randomly' on iOS 7?

    I need an ETA as Apple are planing a front page promotion for one of my apps, they haven't given me a date either, but have asked for and received banner art work, I think they are planing the promo for the new kids category on iTunes (being implemented along side the new iOS release).

    I have a few apps developed with Gamesalad and they are all crashing.
    I've been able to submit my updates late last week to the App Store and not have them rejected, they are also going through review really fast as well (in only three days so thats good at least... so if we get a fix soon it might not be so horrible)

    I have games developed using Unity3D and other platforms on the App Store that haven't been updated in over a year and they are all behaving well on iOS 7 so its very strange this is happening to Gamesalad apps and games.

    yea the iOS7 crash is not 100%, it happens like 50% of the time. so you are lucky it made it though, but be sure to push an update as soon as you can with 0.10.4

    Sadly I just had an update that had been waiting in review for about a week and a half get rejected today because it crashes under iOS 7. I guess it wasn't unexpected...

    Just had the same app only launched a few weeks ago fine, made one small bug fix to size of an actor in updated version and the update has failed review due to crashing on ios7 ipad. Is there updated GS version due that will help with this?
  • jamie_cjamie_c ImagineLabs.rocks Member, PRO Posts: 5,772
    @Mandy_Moore, an update to GS is in the works and will hopefully be available soon.
  • jonmulcahyjonmulcahy Member, Sous Chef Posts: 10,408
    yea i had 3 apps get approved in the past 2 days, so the bug is really random. I know for a fact that all apps crash on my device randomly. can't wait for an official fix.

    The bug is random. Turns out that something changed in iOS 7 that caused previously working code in our engine to start corrupting memory. So the crashes are very random. Neato. Fix is incoming today if all goes well.

    Still testing this fix. It's looking good. More info soon.

    Well... I did a test of my game with IOS7 WITHOUT the new GS update & yup... it crashed instantly upon scene change.

    Once I installed the GS update... & ran my game... IT WORKED GREAT IN IOS7!

    THANKS GS TEAM!!!!

    I REALLY appreciate your efforts here. I know what it's like to have super-tight deadlines & a ton of people waiting on your efforts.

    ...Awesome.
