I have been doing many small projects for testing. The projects all uses the same data folder for assets but in 1 project that does Iw2D draws only, the ipa file generated was 4mb and taking a look in the immediate_files, I noticed the whole of the data folder is being used.
This happens in both 4.0 and 4.1.
Is this by design that I cannot make a project without assets?
Hi Deets,
Use the assets {} block in your mkb to specify explicit files and directories to use. See the beattoy and kartz examples for how to do this.
Without the assets {} block, your whole data directory is deployed.

Hi Dave,
I tried the assets { } part and it works if i specify something in it like the following:
assets
{
(data)
test.jpg
}
In this case, only test.jpg gets deployed in the ipa. However, this test.jpg is not used in my program, in fact, no assets were used.
I noticed that in Helloworld example, the assets { } section is not found in the mkb, but the deployed files did not include the whole data directory, I would like to know how was that possible?
EDIT: I found the reason, the assets { } was part of the ExamplesS3EMain.mkf instead. Thanks Dave, will take note of this. :)
