SplashScreen Orientation Bug

Hi,

I have added the correct splashscreen images within Unity3d - they all being landscape as per my game.
Within Visual Studio, Package.appxmanifest I have set to landscape only, the game therefore sets itself to landscape and this is correct but the splash image seems to be portrait?

Has this been discussed before, any workaround?

Thanks

I will try and provide, but in simple one line terms, the splash screen is landscape when I try and run game on Lumia phone it flips splash screen to portrait before the game starts.

 

There is a option but no mention or orientation, I assume you saying add some extra code to try and set it?

 

Open MainPage.xaml and you will see a texture in the XAML page.
You need to change this texture so it shows in the correct orientation that your app supports.

 

It starts loading the splashscreen correctly with the logo landscape, then after a second flips to portrait with same logo but wrong way around..I try what you said but it could be a bug

 

It's not a bug. Check your manifest settings to see also if you're loading any other splash screens. You need to rotate the image (in a photo editing tool) to be the orientation you desire.

 

I did all this within Unity before exporting the project within splash settings, so you saying I should check this again in Visual Studio also? I did find the supported rotations setting and checked landscape, I assumed once this is ticked it be clever enough to understand that I wish for the Splash Screen do be this also.

 

Oh okay, I just based my assumption on how Unity handles splash screen on all other platforms, now I understand with wp8.1 it seems to be different. Sorry for the confusion but now you understand why users may feel this is a bug somewhat. I think in future Unity editor should have better control of this.

Cheers

 

Having same issue again on a new game release, losts of time wasted.
Therefore two settings are needed in Unity for sure, must have!
Currently using Unity 4.6.3
