Leaderboard shows upside down on iPad2

cocos2d-x C++
#1

Hi everyone,

I’m making an iPad game using cocos2d-x and have incorporate showing gamecenter leaderboard in my game.
However, strangely, on iPad1 the leaderboard shows fine while on iPad2 the view is shown upside down.

I should say that I’m using an upside-down portrait because of issues of accidently touching the home button using our game.
So I chose the upside down portrait setting in my project’s settings and in RootViewController implemented shouldAutorotate like this:

  • (BOOL) shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation: (UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation
    {
    return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);
    }

Since I can’t get the view controller from CCDirector directly since it’s in c++, I’m using [EAGLView sharedEGLView] as recommended in another post.
The code I use to run the leaderboard is:

  • (void) showLeaderboard
    {
    *leaderboardVC = init];
    GKLeaderboardViewController* leaderboardController = init];
    if
    {
    leaderboardController.category = @“category”;
    leaderboardController.timeScope = GKLeaderboardTimeScopeAllTime;
    leaderboardController.leaderboardDelegate = self;
    addSubview:*leaderboardVC.view];
    [_leaderboardVC presentModalViewController: leaderboardController animated: YES];
    }
    }

Anyone has an idea what is going on here?

Thanks!

Have you changed the orientation in RootViewController.mm?

I’ve changed the implmenetation of shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation in RootViewController.mm to return:
return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortraitUpsideDown);

Is that what you mean or did I miss something else?
