Xcode Particle Emitter Editor not using ~ipad images?

We have different images for iPhones and iPads, but the Particle Emitter Editor in Xcode only seems to use the iPhone images -- even on iPad devices.

We also tried changing the texture in code like this: 

emitterNode.particleTexture = SKTexture(imageNamed: "Test.png")

We have an image named "Test@2x~ipad.png". This is the iPad version of the image.

The iPhone version is named "Test@2x.png".

Is automatically using different images for different devices not possible with SKEmitterNodes, or are we doing something wrong?

Solution

  • Instead of calling SKTexture(imageNamed: "Test.png"), call SKTexture(image: UIImage(named: "Test")). The call to UIImage(named:) will obey the bundle resource naming conventions.
