Help/Support Game Center not working on a newly Updated App+ game

Gryffsnuff · January 3

Game in question is Cats Game — Cat Collector! and my iOS version is 17.1.2.

In the previous version (version 1.92.04), which I have tested just now with Si - Not Allowed - and before its update on App+, the game would allow Game Center sign in upon opening the game, however was unplayable due to an “Update Needed!” Pop-up after loadingNow however, after the update to 1.97.01 (thank you again to Laxus for that!) it is not showing any sort of Game Center sign in, and unfortunately there is no other way to sync data in the game.

I was directed to the topic that has been made about this issue and have tried as many of the fixes provided as I am possibly able to, short of getting a $100+AUD developer Apple ID, and/or jailbreaking my phone, but nothing has worked. I have also searched everywhere and consistently find very little conclusive solutions to the problem, however I’m aware it may have something to do with the bundle ID being different to that of the app stores? I did try once to custom install using the bundle id from Apple, but still nothing…

I am unsure how to work around/fix this (if there is a work around) as I have only beginner level knowledge of this kind of thing, and would really appreciate any help that anyone can give!

@Rookmay have an answer?

Perhaps reinstall App+ and re-download the app again and avoid custom install entirely.

Unfortunately, that hasn’t worked…

Edit: Doing some more reading on Reddit etc. it seems like it might be an iOS 17+ problem? Maybe?? I just don’t understand why the previous version of the game will still log in to Game Center, while the newest one won’t. Downloaded both on ios17.1.2. I’ve also tried getting the legit app, and then downloading the hack off App+, but it registered that the same bundle id was present so I don’t think that’s the problem. Could it be something to do with the hack of the game itself?

I’m currently waiting for a paid dev account to process, I will try downloading the game again when it does.

Apologies if any of this is obvious (or obviously wrong), I don’t have experience modding or coding apps.

(tagging the creator of the hack as well as they might have some insight? @Laxus )

This is not a cheat issue and nothing I can do. Non-jb is extremely limited so unless it's from my side I cant fix anything for you

I saw your post on reddit and seem like you using sideloadly to install? while the iOSGods App is currently revoked. Free sideloading with Sideloadly won't give you access to gamecenter like I said multiple times. You will need paid certicate (wait for iOSGods App resign) or get yourself paid developer account

--------------------------

In case if the situation is from my side you can test by downloading unhacked version from here https://armconverter.com/decryptedappstore/

Then install normally, if you can access to GameCenter then it's my issue

Apologies, I wasn’t clear enough: I am using the iOSGods App+, however I could find nothing which talked about this issue, and related specifically to the app+, so the reddit thread I linked was more to get your opinion on the issue than anything else.

I have just downloaded and installed the decrypted version you linked, and gamecenter is available. As soon as I get in the “Signed in as ___” pop-up pops up, and I can continue my progress as normal.
