   That can give me the source that can do the following.

   --cocoas box2d

   -uses a joystick (no issue)
   -uses a sprite controlled by the joystick (no issue)
   -uses a tilemap(no issue)
   -sprite moving causes the tilemap to move with the sprite (no issue)
   -the sprite detects collision of the objects in the map. ( big issues )

   --also
   -set up like a side scroller. kind of mario style.
   -can define elements in the world the sprite is going to pick up.

   end of story this is pretty basic and I have zero Idea why this community does not have something like this more documented. A community of game and app builders and no one can figure out collision? money is first come first serve. leave your email and I will contact you.

   essentially I want the skeleton of a 2D platformer to build from. Menu screen and other basics would be great. I would even be interested in purchasing a platformer game source code to use as an example in developing my own.

   Well if you have $150 to spend then why not use it to pick up LevelSVG?

   http://www.sapusmedia.com/levelsvg/

   It'll solve that sprite collision issue that you have.

   -set up like a side scroller. kind of mario style

   Hmm mario styled platformer....

   let's look at a snippet of the features of LevelSVG:
   

   NEW VERSION from 2010-02-16. Includes a MarioBros-like level, with boxed hero, improved movements, and fixes in the collision detection algorithm.

   Hope that helps you!

   is the pics below it with the ball on the platform and pink background the screenshot of the mario style map? I wish there was more examples and more information I really like what tiled offers currently.

   Well riq is the developer so you probably can ask any question on this forum and he'll reply.

   I second Lam, check out this game:
   http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/forum/topic/4967

   It was made using cocos2D and LEVEL SVG. 150$ well spent.

   @Atlus - what you have asked for is LevelSVG. You can use LevelSVG with Tiled, basically you draw collision shapes over the top of the Tiled map in Inkscape.

   Uh, what? That's really not a problem at all. The problem is that you want the code written for you, and it sounds like you're upset that it's not just lying around for the taking.

   It's fine if you'd prefer to buy the code than write it yourself (although frankly, $150 is not a lot of money given what you're asking for. Luckily, LevelSVG does most of what you want for around that price.) However, please don't come in here and insult us.

   its $150 only if you bought the other source code package first. So the total is about over $200 right?

    LevelSVG is $249 if you haven't bought any Sapus Tongue products. If you are trying to build a platform game based on Box2d then I guarantee you that LevelSVG will save you more than 100 hours of time. If you value your time > $2.50 an hour then it is a bargain.

    I got it and I am incredibly impressed ;) problem solved. =) and yes mitch. everything is flooded with people asking the exact same questions to the exact same problems that no one seems to be able to answer. not for me but for everyone. the irc population is just as well a bit cold. I am pretty sure that most people dev'ing on mac can agree the entire situation is under documented. It wasnt an insult if you took it as one then do something about it and start writing tutorials or making videos for people to better understand. and stop being a troll lol. Even the majority of cocos and objective-c books already assume you know another language before reading that book. The prerequisite to dev on mac is 2 languages before the 2 you have to learn lol...rediculous. On that note thanks again to the community I love LevelSVG
