Max size of textures in cocos2d-x depends on each platform¶
In theory, cocos2d-x could show textures in any size, but actually the maxsize of the textures is restricted by the hardware and the system.
Here I provide a texture-size restriction table on different platforms' emulators.
| platform | maxsize in pixels |
| win32 | 2048*2048 |
| android | 4096*4096 |
| iPhone3 | 1024*1024 |
| iPhone3GS | 2048*2048 |
| iPhone4 | 2048*2048 |
On the real machines, they aslo have different restrictions, here are some test results: G3 1024*1024, iPhone4 2048*2048.
So, for the developers, if you want to cross platforms and run your games smoothly, you should keep your texture size less than 1024*1024, that is the lowest retriction for most machines.
