Multiple Resolution Support in Cocos2d-x v2.2.5 in Portrait mode

I am working on a game in cocos2d-x which is in portrait mode.

Now, for a long time now, I've been working on how to properly achieve multi resolution in cocos2d-x but failed. I followed this great tutorial on forum, but it wasn't enough, I also searched a lot but couldn't find a solution.

I also tried with different-different policies which are available with cocos-x.

I went through all the following links & tutorials

Using these links I could achieve for all ios resolutions but not for all android screens.

I even tried with newer version of cocos2d-x, but they also not providing anything which can support both ios and android screens.

Solution

  • It's working for me this way for Portrait mode:

    Below the header : 

    typedef struct tagResource
{

     cocos2d::CCSize size;
     char directory[100];

} Resource;

static Resource smallResource   =  { cocos2d::CCSizeMake(640, 960),"iPhone" };

static Resource mediumResource  =  { cocos2d::CCSizeMake(768, 1024),"iPad"};

static Resource largeResource   =  { cocos2d::CCSizeMake(1536, 2048),"iPadhd" };

static cocos2d::CCSize designResolutionSize = cocos2d::CCSizeMake(768, 1024);

    in applicationDidFinishLaunching() method : 

     // initialize director

    CCDirector* pDirector = CCDirector::sharedDirector();
    CCEGLView* pEGLView = CCEGLView::sharedOpenGLView();

    pDirector->setOpenGLView(pEGLView);


    CCSize frameSize = pEGLView->getFrameSize();

    std::vector<std::string> searchPaths;

    // Set the design resolution


    pEGLView->setDesignResolutionSize(designResolutionSize.width, designResolutionSize.height, kResolutionExactFit);

    if (frameSize.height <= smallResource.size.height)
    {
        searchPaths.push_back(mediumResource.directory);      
        CCFileUtils::sharedFileUtils()->setSearchPaths(searchPaths);    

    pDirector->setContentScaleFactor(mediumResource.size.height/designResolutionSize.height);

    }
    else if (frameSize.height <= mediumResource.size.height)
    {
        searchPaths.push_back(mediumResource.directory);
        CCFileUtils::sharedFileUtils()->setSearchPaths(searchPaths);
    pDirector->setContentScaleFactor(mediumResource.size.height/designResolutionSize.height);
    }
    else
    {
        searchPaths.push_back(largeResource.directory);
        CCFileUtils::sharedFileUtils()->setSearchPaths(searchPaths);
    pDirector->setContentScaleFactor(largeResource.size.height/designResolutionSize.height);

   }
