    Hey, not sure how many people are still here but,

    I'm having a problem with my War ap, in that even after putting all the stuff in the ViewController.swift and running the simulator, the "deal" button doesn't do anything to the cards.

    I've noticed that I seem to have gotten out of sync with seemingly different versions of the videos. The first series I was looking at (perhaps the older one?), had IBOutlet Properties in lesson 11, but then when I got half way through lesson 12 it seemed I had missed out on adding the images.

    Clicking on a link saying that it was more updated got me to a version of episode 11 which dealt with the Image asset library, but when I continue from there, I get to the result with my dead "deal" button.

    Can anyone give me a clue?

    Great tutorial! I needed a quick overview on how to use Image Asset Catalogs, and your video is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I had a question about it, though… In the past, I've typically moved my images into a subdirectory of my project directory, and then just added the images to the project to a Group (like "Images", for example) and accessed them from the project bundle. Now, when using an Image Asset Catalog, do I need to also make sure my images are in a subdirectory of my project, or is Xcode smart enough to copy them to a location within the project folder hierarchy on its own when I drag and drop them from another location on my file system? Thanks! (I hope my question made sense…)

    self.firstCardImageView.image = UIImage(named: "card1")
    and the alarm of the error says: " UIView does not have a member named image"

    Hi Chris,

    I am getting an error in my AppDelegate.swift for some reason. I did not touch any of the code and am unsure why I am getting this error. 

    class AppDelegate: UIResponder,UIApplicationDelegate {
    //I am getting a Thread 1 signal SIGABART

    Can someone help me with this, so at 18:35 when I press play it switches to Xcode and highlights my code which is 
    " self.secondCardImageView.image = UIImage(named: "card11") " 
    and it gives the error 
    " Thread 1: EXC BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_l386_INVOP, subcode=0x0) "

    EDIT: The problem was the secondCardImage was not connected to the view controller from reference outlet

    How did you get individual png files for the images.  The site seems to give you a file that contains all of the cards side by side.  Did you cut it up to make individual image files?

    Can't the app just scale the images itself?
