Repository of original V1 and V2 of Cocos2D-iphone

cocos2d for iPhone

Update 20. November 2014

The core library has been updated to 64 bit, plus whatever it takes to run on XCode 6.
This version replaces V2.1 file by file.
To install, download zip, and replace the entire $project/libs/cocos2d folder.
Disclaimer:
By replacing all cocos2d files, any user changes to the original 2.1 API, will of course be lost.

There are no warnings or analyzer remarks left, that has anything to do with 64 bit.
We have checked (as good as we could) that there is no int to pointer conversions which can break.

Deprecation has not been removed. This will mainly be accelerometer and modalViewController.
