The app loads the Launchscreen.xib, runs through the initial navigation controller code and returns true in app delegate in the finished launching method. After that it just sits there on the launch screen, it doesn't load any of the storyboard at all.
The storyboard is set as the main interface in the pinfo list and in properties in visual studio. The navigation controller is the initial view controller and the 'splash screen' we created is the root view controller.
This problem has become progressively worse, it started out with the issues that I posted here: https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/86273/xamarin-ios-unified-storyboard-launch-screen-issue#latest
We have a company deadline at the end of this week, and essentially the app is useless, I've compared all of the data to another project that does work and nothing is different, everything is identical, I've tried using different visual studio installations around the office etc.
If anyone has come close to anything like this problem before, any help would be appreciated.~~~~
