porting from netbook to macbook air and pro resolution question

#1 It's not a supported resolution on one of those iMac which Apple uses to validate Mac AppStore apps, I was rejected using the same resolution. You can refer to my resource for the fixes.

From what I know, a lot of the Mac users would expect a wide screen ratio rather than a 4:3 ratio.

#2 Hi Aun,

Do you know if letterboxing in fullscreen will pass validation for the Mac AppStore? I would like the game to keep the same aspect ratio on all machines.

Also, what resolution did you end up using for your game? 1024x576 or did you change it?

#3 What do you mean by letterboxing in fullscreen, filling the background with black but the game still renders the same size ?

I still used 1024*576 but check if the system supports it or not.

#4 About Letterboxing,
Say the game is designed for 16:9, but the user's screen is 4:3, then letterboxing would add black bars at the top and bottom. I am looking through the macAppStore documentation, but I don't see anything relating to this.

Also, does the macAppStore have a requirement about the game being playable in a window as well as fullscreen?

#5 I see, I downloaded a game using this feature so I think it should be ok.

I believe it doesn't, from what I see some games can't go to full screen some can.

#6 Thanks Aun
