Ipad pro simulator issues and 64 bit compatibility?

Hi,

I have successfully tested my game on Flash, Mac and every IOS simulator except for iPad Pro (both sizes). So the iPad air and retina display works fine, but the iPad Pro simulator doesn't load. Is there any reason why it wouldn't work on a particular IOS device? I've attached the logs that were generated.

Update: I found this in the logs...

Does this mean that the actual simulator is missing?

My other question is that when I test on the IOS simulator, the following message pops up: ""My Game" May Slow Down Your iPhone - The developer of this app needs to update it to improve its compatibility". From what I understand, this is because its running as a 32 bit game, and Apple only accepts 64 bit compatibility. So is there a way to change the setting to 64 bit?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If the game runs on the standard ipad then it should be fine on the pro. I only test on my iPad mini when building for iPad and I've never had any issues.

Just ignore the pop-up, it seems to come up on the simulator but not on device.

So have you done any testing on an actual device?

Ok thanks, I'm in the process of organising IOS certificates so I can start testing on devices. I'll post another reply if there are still issues.

I have the same issue, works fine on every simulator except the iPad Pro. I haven't tested on an actual iPad pro, since I don't have one. This is unfortunate since I can't make iPad Pro screenshots to provide for the App Store.

Use a standard screenshot and resize it to pro resolution. I always do this and Apple don´t notice or care.  ;)
