Happily surprised by the iOS Exporter

I've used Multimedia Fusion 2 for a while now and while I've always had fun just testing game ideas, I never really looked past using it as a hobby tool. When I was asked to make an iOS app I immediately thought of doing it with MMF2 and the iOS plugin but I was concerned by how well MMF2 would compile and run on an actual iOS device. After buying a mac, applying for an Apple developer account and getting the iOS MMF2 export plugin, I knew there was no going back. I tested the game I'm working on with the iOS simulator in xCode and it didn't really run that well. Scrolling was slightly stuttered and large objects didn't display correctly. I made a few changes I'd found on this site and, while the graphics displayed correctly, the scrolling was still stuttering too much. All this was happening while I was awaiting my developer codes from Apple. Once I received them I immediately tested the game on my iPad 1. To my total surprise, the scrolling issues displayed in the iOS emulator were non-existent. I was even able to add on a few extra layers of parallax. I just wanted to thank the iOS dev team for making this excellent export plugin, it's truly remarkable and has turned my hobbie into my job. I just wanted to say thanks. :)

I really Clickteam has done a great job with IOS Exporter, I dare say that MMF is today one of the most complete 2D engine market, and the best is the great product support! :)

Looking forward to your iOS apps and games Denniga!
Let me know when you have something out so we can help promote it for you.

I have found with all mobile devices the emulators all seem pretty bad -- You really need to get an actual device for testing.

One thing that really frustrates me is with Android and its wide range of screen sizes and aspect ratios at least with iOS devices this problem is minor.

I was really hesitant about the 99$ dev account especially after the $130 for the exporter, but it really does make a huge difference! Plus, I can take around my app on my phone and let friends and relatives see it.
