However, here are some awesome skins you should consider applying to the emulator. Batman 2. Berry 3. Flash 4. Green Lantern 5. Open up the orientation of your choice typically by clicking an arrow to the left of the item. Once opened up, you'll see three new items:. For the purposes of this section, we will only focus on the assets and translucent items. Typically, only landscape skins that go on top of the game screen support this feature, but there's nothing stopping you from enabling it on other types of skins, or even disabling it for your own landscape overlay skin.

To enable this feature, set the value to true. If you want to disable this feature, set it to false. To provide a skin image optimized for a particular screen type, all you need to do is set the value of each item to the filename of the matching image.

For example, if you downloaded the Default GBA template and opened up the portrait assets, you would see the following:. As you can see, each filename begins with the word "portrait", then appends different suffixes depending on what screen the image was made for. Technically, these filenames can be anything you want, but it is strongly recommended you follow a standard naming convention, since that makes it easier to change images without having to open up the info. In case you're wondering, "R4" stands for "Retina 4-inch", the size of the newer iPhone screens, and " 2x" is the suffix Apple recommends when providing images for retina displays.

You might have noticed something else in the Default GBA portrait assets example: there's no value for iPhone Widescreen! If an image for the current device's screen doesn't exist, then it will fallback to using another image in the skin, if it can.

Typically, this is what you'd want for a portrait iPhone skin; most of the time, you don't need a separate image for the different types of portait iPhone screens. If for whatever reason GBA4iOS can't fallback to using another image in your skin, it will then use the default skin.

Once you have updated the info. Copy all the images you need for your skin into the same folder as the info. GBA4iOS will automatically layout everything correctly regardless of what size the images are, but by default GBA4iOS uses the following image sizes for the default skins in pixels :.

If all you want to do is change the images of an existing skin or one of the "default" templates, at this point you have all the necessary pieces to make your skin, and can skip to the Finishing the Skin section below to learn how to turn these files into an actual.

However, if you want to customize the button mapping for your skins, carry on into the next section, Mapping Buttons. Despite looking radically different than the default GBC skin, Sketch by Alyssa Surowiec uses the exact same button mapping. Congratulations, if you have gotten this far in the tutorial, you know enough to make simple modifications of how a skin looks. However, skins offer more than just the ability to switch out images; they also give you full control over exactly where the buttons should go, how big they should be, and also where the game screen itself should be placed.

Combining all of these, you can create very unique read: strange layouts for your skins, or maybe just make the game screen a bit smaller when in landscape mode. The point is, skins were designed to be flexible, and this section will show you just how to take advantage of everything!

Open up the orientation of your choice in your skin template, then open up layouts. If you open up landscape, you should see the following options:. If you were to open up the portrait orientation, you would notice that there isn't an iPhone Landscape item.

If GBA4iOS can't find button mappings for the current device's screen, then it will fallback to another button mapping. Unlike images, if it can't find any button mappings, GBA4iOS does not revert to using the default skin; it just won't respond to button presses! This fallback mechanism is the same reason why there isn't an iPad Retina item for either orientation.

Very rarely will the iPad and iPad Retina button mappings differ, so it's better to just map all the buttons for the non-retina version, and have all retina iPads fallback to using the non-retina mappings.

If the button mappings should differ between iPad and iPad Retina , or between iPhone and iPhone Widescreen in portrait, feel free to add either an iPad Retina or iPhone Widescreen item. Now, let's take a look at the format of how each button is mapped. Open any button up, and you should see four or five items:. The first four items define the exact location of the button in the image in pixels, with no padding around it. The extendedEdges item is something special that we use to add padding around the buttons to increase the touch area, but we'll look at that later.

Now, you may be wondering, how can the iPad and iPad Retina items use the same mappings, even though the iPad Retina image has twice the number of pixels both vertically and horizontally as the iPad image? Well, this is because everything is actually mapped in points.

On a non-retina display, one point is equal to one pixel. However, on a retina display, one point is actually four pixels; two pixels wide and two pixels tall.
