I just started with the tutorials, which xcode and sdk versions are u using ?? i have xcode 3.2.1 and iphone skd 3.1 and it seems different that what u have here. Plus, where can i get the graphics folder u use in your first tutorial ? .. thx

Thanks for the tutorial, its great, starting with some programming for iphone, fun mostly,

although I’m running into some problems using the latest sdk, (3.2), first of all theopenglES default project created is a bit different, and I’ve had to adapt, since it is not exactly the same, ( uses a render object instead of the method you use.

I seem to be having a problem with just the rendering of the ship, seems that its offscreen with those coordinates ( 160.0f, 240.0f) trying to figure this out, will post if I figure it.

Excellent tutorials. This is exactly what I have been looking for. You guys f**king kick ass!

Hi,

I’ve tried some of these tutorials, but the video does not play for me (Safari on iMac) do I need a plugin or something?

Do you have any tutorials for the simple apps that you were making? Which would you recommend, starting with and app first or a game first?

Hi Chase,

I would recommend just going for something that you find appealing. The app store has changed so much from back when I first wrote those tutorials.. I’d say start with something simple, if you want to create games.. then I would definitely start with a game. If it doesn’t matter then you might want to go for a simple app. Juset get it out there.
