If it looks like those objects are the problem, then post an example of how you're adding an image to the screen.

Here are two methods for loading images, creating animations

-(NSArray *)loadImpactImagesNSString *)file_prefix NSInteger)loop_start NSInteger)loop_end
{

//set an array for computer impact images
NSMutableArray *imageArray =[NSMutableArray array];// [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
//imageArray=nil;

NSString *cname;
NSString *imagePath;
int i;
UIImage *img;
for (i = loop_start; i <=loop_end ; i++) {



if([file_prefix isEqualToString:@"eclat vitre_00"])
{
//this is only for glass break aniamtion
cname = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%d.png",file_prefix, i];

}
else
{
cname = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@%@%03d",levelPrefix,file_pref ix, i];
imagePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:cname ofType:@"png"];
}

//UIImage *img = [UIImage imageNamed:cname];


img = [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile:imagePath];

if (img)
{
[imageArray addObject:img];


}else{ NSLog(@"%@ not found",cname);}

img=nil;

pauseState=file_prefix;
pauseStateFrameNo = loop_end;

//}else{ NSLog(@"%@ not found",cname);}

}


//z [imagesCopy arrayByAddingObject:imageArray];
return imageArray;
}




//general function for animating the object moves
-(void)myAnimateObject{

//if(movingObject!=nil && sizeof(listdata)>0)
//{

movingObject.animationImages = listdata;


if(speed != customAnimationSpeed)
{
movingObject.animationDuration = customAnimationSpeed;
}
else
{
movingObject.animationDuration = speed ;//speed * ([listdata count]);
}


//movingObject.animationDuration = 0.5;// speed * ([listdata count]);

movingObject.contentMode = UIViewContentModeBottomLeft;


if(repeatAnimation==0)
{
[movingObject setAnimationRepeatCount:1];

}


[self.view addSubview:movingObject];

//NSLog(@"Added subview %@", movingObject);

[movingObject startAnimating];

self.pauseImage=[listdata objectAtIndex[listdata count]-1)];



movingObject.image=pauseImage; // logic to put last image of animation just after finishing the animation
[self.view bringSubviewToFront:glassCrackObject];



}
