Toward the end it gets much better though. I’m not sure whether this is because you changed the settings or whether there was some other factor involved.

Another question:

I noticed that the game was run in the iPhone simulator that comes with the SDK. Does it run just as smooth and look just as good on a real iPhone as it does on the simulator running on an Apple computer?

@Baraka – All the code is run through SWIG to generate LUA wrappers. This includes OpenGL and OpenAL libs, but does not include Bullet physics – except for the SIO2 code that interfaces with Bullet.

@Martin – Just to clarify – SIO2 is written in C ANSI ISO C99 with no dependencies. Very little of Apple’s API’s are used. For instance, Apple’s PNG parsing code is not used.

@lan3d – I think there was some effort put into making SIO2 projects compile under windows, but as you need a mac to load apps onto the device or package apps for the app store more effort was put into adding features to SIO2. There’s a poll to gauge interest in this type of development – http://sio2interactive.forumotion.net/sio2-engine-f3/iphone-and-ipod-touch-development-using-microsoft-visual-c-t790.htm.

1.4 includes a change which allows the exporter to properly package assets for SIO2 under windows.
