Hi all. I put in a simple particle system tonight (ParticleExplosion) that simple spawns some images and they grow while they fade out. On the simulator all's good, but on the device the fading doesn't happen, they just disappear at the end of their lifetime.
Does anyone know if this is a known issue? If so, any solutions?
Thanks
Aaron
Has noone had this issue at all?
If someone who has a 3GS with OS 3.1 on it, could test to see if a particle system that has particles that fade out, actually fade out, that'd be great.

The ParticleTest demo works fine on a 3GS with 3.1.
You probably have an issue with the images you are using, search for libpng to find out more.
You may find people are quicker to help if you follow the guidelines here:

For example in your original post you didn't tell us the device. You still haven't told us what version of cocos2d you are using. These things do make a difference and we are not mind readers.
Hi Steve, sorry about that. I forget there's myriad of different setups. I was using Cocos 0.8 on a 3GS running 3.1 I have tracked the problem down and it seems that not correctly initialising some of the start and var values for colour were causing the problem.
A similar issue happened with particles and scaling. If I set the endSizeVar too small, then on the real device I would get HUGELY scaled particles flickering in and out of existence.
Thanks.
