iOS 8 simulators not visible in XCode 7 beta

I'm using the XCode 7 beta that Apple released during WWDC2015, and it looks like iOS8 simulators are not there in it. I tried downloading them using the Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Components, but it doesn't list the simulators.

I have Xcode 6.3.2 also on the mac, and iOS8 simulators are visible there. Any ideas how to make it appear in Xcode 7?

First, find the target file:

/Applications/Xcode-beta.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneSimulator.sdk/usr/lib/system/host/liblaunch_sim.dylib

You need make backup liblaunch_sim.dylib (Just in case). Second, copied to destination (Remember to backup)

/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Profiles/Runtimes/iOS 7.1.simruntime/Contents/Resources/RuntimeRoot/usr/lib/system/host/liblaunch_sim.dylib

And If need it to: iOS 8.1.simruntime iOS 8.2.simruntime iOS 8.3.simruntime All done.

Hope it helps.
