Using isometric tilemaps for a football game

cocos2d-x C++
#1

Hi all,

I am writing a simple soccer game in cocos2d-x and recently found out that older iOS versions do not support sprites larger than 1024x1024px.

I was thinking about using isometric tilemaps to create a larger football field. Is this the way to go ? If so, how can i convert a convert my 2048x2048px football field image into several isometric tiles ?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Hi, you can use some picture tools like photoshop to clip your large image into several isometric files and use tile map edit(http://www.mapeditor.org/) to make your map.

Thanks for the help, we ended up reducing the football field sprite to 1024 as we were short on time, but on future iterations that will be the way to go !
