Hi Hitesh,

You haven't stated the problem you are having. "Similar" shows nothing of what you have tried, what you are trying, and what it is doing.

Maybe a little more info? Perhaps a screenshot (like the other post) ?

As stated in that thread the most common cause of these orientation troubles is resolution issues. Double check the prefs/defaults for video settings, double check the commonConfig.xml in the common folder, and hopefully we can help you out.

i would recommend to not toy with the xml.

use the iphone preferences in the settings + edit the scene graph and choose the correct setting.

Thanks all for your replies. I have managed to sort out the issue. The problem was that I built my game using TGB and in that the lowest screen resolutiobn was 640 480. I adjusted that to 960 480 so that it was in the correct proportion. Then when i used iTGB to build it worked. I think that was the issue, but not 100% sure. The main thing is that it is working fine now. Now i have other problems like the load time is 10 seconds and after 19mins the game shuts down. Hopefully i will find some solutions for this on the forum. Thanks
