Just stumbled across this site, the tutorials and the book. Absolutely great job, Mike.
I purchased the rough cuts version right away and are following your tutorials. Your way of explaining things is so excellent!

Please keep up the good work!

Cheers,

Never mind, I just found your post where you said you were indeed going to use TBXML. Excellent.

The code for the book was tested up to the latest SDK at the time which was 3.1.3. There are some small differences such as the applicationDidFinishLaunching but they should not stop the code working correctly. That should in fact be the only difference between the books code and the current SDK.

The book is currently going through product edit and I will try to get the code updated to match the latest method signature.

I will need to check how the process will work with the publisher, but I am planning on making the tutorials available to those who purchased the rough cuts version of the book.

I hope that helps and let me know if you have any other problems.

Regards

Mike

I purchased your book yesterday in hopes that it would be compatible. I’m only in Chapter 3 right now but I found one method header that doesn’t match the default in the AppDelegate.m
The applicationDidFinishLaunching now returns a BOOL and has a NSDictionary as a parameter.

Will you be updating the book and source code for the current SDK?

Will the tutorials for the book be available to those that purchased the pdf through Safari Rough Cuts?

Thanks

Just dived in and bought your book after watching a few of the tutorials (Which are fantastic by the way, just find them to be a bit muddled). I find the book to be as informative and easy to understand as the tutorials and very well structured. Look forward to the final release.

Now, just a quick question with regards to the service. I originally signed up for the free trial to have a read before purchasing it the next day. I have bought the book and then cancelled my membership. I am, however slightly concerned that I will now not be able to download the future updates and / or final copy of the book from the site. Just wondering if that is the case or not?

Oh, and seeing as I cant now add it to my email subscription lists, please could you update us all if and when a new version is up?

Once again, excellent stuff. So glad I found this website. So much great content on here :)

Cheers.

I found the rough cuts book on Safari a few days ago, and I’ve read up to the end of Chapter 3. It’s really very good so far, and it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for in terms of an iPhone Game Programming book. I’m sure the final product will be great! When’s it coming out in print?

Thanks again!
