Hey David , When the app loads it shows an image just to let the end user know that the app is indeed loading. Without something to show the end user might be confused and try to relaunch the app. You can replace the image with just an all black one and your app will appear 'normal'. This image is different than a splash screen and is pretty common for there to be something, if only a black image to let the end user that something is happening in response to their button press.

Thank you parker, so for now developers need to always change their images to black images? (seems a bit annoying/tasky to do this every time for each app, it used to not be like this, unless its a buzz server thing only?) also, could you please check why my apps wont work on my server? thanks! David.

Hmmm. Were you following the steps in the instructions.pdf document and copying files over into xcode before running the sim?

I havent done anything with my xcode since switching to the server - was I supposed too? I followed the instructions I believe for installing the server?

Hi David, I think I know what went wrong. When you copy: 1) BT_Plugins 2) BT_Images 3) BT_Docs 4) BT_Video 5) BT_Sound make sure that the option 'Copy items into destination group's folder (if needed) is checked. This thing is different on bt-server than when you create an app on buzztouch. If you don't do this you will see that the imported folders are in blue (in xcode) and they need to be yellow I had those trouble myself. Hope this is your solution Best Regards, Danny

Hi PSM, What do you mean when I copy? When I download the app fromt he server, i unzip, and launch the .xcode file fromt he unzipped folder into xcode. Any further explanation would be awesome! Thanks!

Hi David You need to unzip it and in the unzipped file is a document called instructions.pdf. Read this and you'll understand what I mean. Best Regards, Danny

in xcode the folders in the project are yellow, so it may not be what your thinking :( David.

Please read my last post

I am an idiot - I have now fixed the problem and the app is launching perfectly. I should have read the instructions - I was assuming it was all the same so I skipped the file (like usual I dont read those files for the most part) Thank you Danny, greatly appreciated! One last question: What is the difference from a splash screen and those images I need to replace as black images in the project folder? Any way you guys can just make them black as default like on buzz site so we dont have extra work - I see no advantages to them having that text there if theres no real use for it with splash screens. David.

Hi David, Glad you found it. I don't really know the difference but I just replace the default images in the folder BT-Art, use the same image for a splash-screen and everything works fine. They make it black with the white text so you don't forget to change these. Maybe someone else can explain the exact difference. Best regards, Danny

We never had to change them before - and we still wouldn't have to change them if they just were black images, that was my complaint ;p Thanks again! David
