Hi, I have a feeling this might be a newbie FAQ type question, but right now it’s holding me up and a search did not reveal the answer.
I have a generated cross-platform project, and I’m working in the iOS simulator. I am removing some images and replacing them with my own as I start to code the UI for my game.
As soon as I remove the generated images, the generated project no longer builds (for iOS) because it cannot find those images to copy into resources. I get errors like:
CpResource ../Resources/../Resources/crop.png /Users/mlepage/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/lse-apdxubchhcuexfhegljvjwfpsknh/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/lse.app/crop.png
cd /Users/mlepage/Projects/cocos2d-x-2.1.4/projects/lse/proj.ios

Yes, it won’t copy because I have removed it. I know that.
But surely removing the resource doesn’t then require me to go into every single platform project and adjust the resources it uses? I am not set up to build each platform project, and indeed I never will be, because I have partners who will be handling some of the other platforms (e.g. Android).
Am I misunderstanding something? How can I remove/rename resources and still be able to build (with the changes) for all platforms?
And even if I am to edit manually, where do I do so? I have grep’d for the image I removed in all the project platform directories (e.g. proj.ios) and it is not listed there. Where is this copy step specified?
