I just tried to compile MultiTest in the latest SDK (iOS4 release SDK #1) and I get about 20 errors. So, I can't check on the problem you're seeing. Sorry.

If you're using the web view for online scores, I really recommend ditching my method here & using OpenFeint or Plus+. They're both very easy to use & widely loved by users. Game Center is coming this fall, so that's something to think about too.

Have you found any way to solve that? I'm trying your code in Multitest.zip and I see that in menuCallback2 it's supposed to be a timed transition, however the webview instead appears instantly.

Multiplex layers didn't let me use transitions between scenes. Multiplex layers are a little easier to use, but I think you have more flexibility if you don't use them. If you look through the code, when I switch between layers, I'm actually creating a new scene & attaching the layer to the scene, then calling replaceScene. There are certainly different ways to do it, but that works best for me. @Kent I do actually use scenes. Multiplex layers didn’t let me use transitions between scenes.

I am not presuming in anyway that you are wrong in your decision I am just taking an unofficial survey of Cocos2d usage styles. I am assuming you only have 1 scene and that in that scene you are using multiplex layers.

There are many more free options now. Open Feint is a newly-free one that's worth a look. @gpyles I chose Geocade because at the time, they were the easiest to implement of the free high score services and they had all the location & time options I wanted in my high scores.

Starting to take a more serious look at Cocos2D. Any specific reason why you decided to use Geocade over some of the other similar services? -greg Great overview and thanks for the sample code!
