iOS 6 Game Center Authentication (Solved)

by redbarndan · in iTorque 2D · 03/01/2013 (10:41 am) · 2 replies

Has anyone managed to successfully implement the changes required now that authenticateWithCompletionHandler is deprecated?

I can't get the authentication view to display using the new setAuthenticateHandler way.

Thanks

    Just to add to this, the code in the authenticationHandler block is never getting executed, it just skips right to the end of the authenticateLocalUser function.

    Could this be a sandbox testing issue?

    Looks like something got screwed up with my sandbox testing accounts. After spending all day bashing my head against this, reading everything and anything I could about it, I finally did what I should have done about 12 hours ago, I closed all apps and rebooted the device. Presto, now it works.

    What's strange is that going through this exercise I learned that the way users were authenticated had been deprecated in iOS 6. Why then does the old method (authenticateWithCompletionHandler) still work even though I'm testing this on an iPad 3 running iOS6.
