Updating Xcode with SDK 6.0 gives you an error when trying to compile your project.

Missing Retina 4 launch image. A launch image named “Default-568@2x.png” is required to run at native resolution on Retina 4 devices. Would you like Xcode to add this image for you?

When clicking add, it creates a black launch image of size 640×1136. I know I can easily replace this image with an appropriate one. But XCode is giving me an error and forcing me to have this file. If I don’t want to include this, how can I skip this error and just use the shorter launch image already there?

    Update: seems like you can’t ignore his error. It will eventually fail when you upload the binary. Just provide the retina image. Users will like it 😀

    It appears to be just a warning when I added that file and then later remove it. This is weirdddd.

    FYI, by including a Retina 4-inch launch image file (Default-568h@2x.png) in your target summary, it will force the app to be stretched to full 4-inch display. In order to keep your app to run in 3.5-inch screen mode again, other than removing the 4-inch image you also have to **clean your project AND delete the app.
