Multi-level Template display issue in iOS 6 fixed

Thanks to Nick Wilson who pointed out that my Cocos2d Multi-page template doesn't display properly in iOS 6.

As shown below, when loaded in iOS6 it always displays in Portrait mode, and gets quite messy.

Did some research and got it working by making 2 small changes:

1) in "AppDelegate.m", inside "applicationDidFinishLaunching", insert the line highlighted in red as shown below, before "[window makeKeyAndVisible]"

// make the View Controller a child of the main window

[window addSubview: viewController.view];

window.rootViewController = viewController;

    

[window makeKeyAndVisible];

2) then in "RootViewController.m" add a new method anywhere as below:

- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations {

    return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;

}

That's it. Let me know if this works for you or if you have any other problems.

Cheers.

Nick also pointed out, the other extra thing to change would be to add an iPhone 5 background image.
