I'm currently developing an iOS game and would really like to use Game Center, I noticed the new Gaming SDK 1.1 has game center integration for Flash Builder, but Ive never used this before and have no clue where to start. I can't even seem to use the samples.

A tutorial on how to set this up would be nice if one could point me in that direction (I've tried google to no avail).

Also, are the ANE's for Game Center only usable via Flash Builder and not Flash Proffesional?

Thanks, Jordan.

For Integrating GameCenter  in your app you need to perform following steps:

1)Create a development provisioning profile at https://developer.apple.com/ in which GameCenter store technology is enabled.You can do this by referring the following link:

https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/IDEs/Conceptual/AppDistributionGuide/ProvisioningStoreTechnologies/ProvisioningStoreTechnologies.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40012582-CH14-SW1

2)After creating provisioning profile,login into the https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa using the same credential using which you create your profile.Click on "Manage your Apps" tab and then tap on the "Add New App" button.

3)Fill in the App name and select the bundle ID using which you create your provisiong profile and click on continue.

4)Click on Manage GameCenter button and add leaderboard and achievements information for your App.

5)For integrating game center API's in your app you can refer the docs at:

http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/gamingsdk/anedocs/com/adobe/ane/gameCenter/package-detail.html

6) After all this package your app using the provisioning profile created in step 1.

All the ANE's availaible with GamingSDK 1.1 can be used with both Flash builder as well as Flash Professional.

Please let me know if you required any further information.

Thanks for the reply, so I have to complete my game and upload it to iTunes before I can actually start working on game center I guess. I know how to upload them as I've been through that process before but I'll try my best to figure it out with that document you provided, even though I'm not very good at this kind of thing (Just having some fun, hehe).


Thanks alot for taking time to reply, have a great day!

No you don't have to upload your app on iTunes you just have to prepare it for upload on iTunes connect for managing Game center leadership board and achievement information.When you link  Gamecenter ANE in your app and login into Gamecenter using your same credentials your app is visible their for testing purpose.You can upload it to iTunes after completing your testing via Application loader.
