// Load sprite sheet auto spritecache = CCSpriteFrameCache::sharedSpriteFrameCache(); spritecache->addSpriteFramesWithFile("game_sprites.plist"); // Create a sprite from the sheet auto player = CCSprite::createWithSpriteFrameName("player_idle_01.png");

Use TexturePacker (free for small projects) to generate .plist + .png automatically. Set scale: 0.5 for Retina + non-Retina support.
