hey there, for the last months, I have seen a lot of

Thread Performance Checker: Thread running at QOS_CLASS_USER_INTERACTIVE waiting on a thread without a QoS class specified. Investigate ways to avoid priority inversions

on iOS 15 and 16 when running apps.
Is there any official info on this?

[solid sail]

I'm making a game about guessing words.
I'trying to hide "suggestions" while typing on android.
I'm manually opening up the on screen keyboard like this;
keyboard = TouchScreenKeyboard.Open("", TouchScreenKeyboardType.NamePhonePad, false, false, false, false);

I think there is a way to do it on Java but there is no property to hide suggestions on TouchScreenKeyboard class. I tried to export project and add this to AndroidManifest.xml but it didnt work.
android:inputType="textFilter"
and i tried this one;
android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textVisiblePassword"

Details:
*I don't wanna create custom unity ui keyboard for players
*I don't wanna hide the textbox that comes with this TouchScreenKeyboard.

I know I can create a custom java library and rewrite the whole TouchScreenKeyboard library to add this feature but is there any other way to do this inside of Unity without coding my own soft keyboard library?

[languid shore]

hi, can help me this?

[tired lily]

where is your app-ads.txt hosted? did you set it up?

[languid shore]

yes

[tired lily]

so what's your developer website url and what happens if you try to access app-ads.txt there?

[languid shore]

https://youniverse.game/app-ads.txt this my url, and nothing happen, its said need to wait 24 hour , but i wait from yesterday and still error

[tired lily]

assuming your youniverse.game url is in your listing, just give it some more time. I've had to wait almost 2 days before

[languid shore]

oh really?damn

[green scarab]

Well guys I'm back again lol. I am still trying to get leaderboards to work on my game, and its still not working. Looking at logcat its giving me this error whenever I try to pull up a leaderboard:

AndroidJavaException: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: no static method with name='initialize' signature='(Lcom.unity3d.player.UnityPlayerActivity;)V' in class Ljava.lang.Object;

I'm just using Social.ShowLeaderboardUI() to show the leaderboard.

On top of that, whenever I try to report a score it says leaderboard not found. Any help would be appreciated!

[tired lily]

usually this indicates a proguard problem

[green scarab]

I have a custom proguard file. Here's the contents:

-keep class com.google.android.gms.* { }
-keep class com.google.android.gms.games.* { }```

What exactly could the problem be?

[tired lily]

based on your snippet, it looks like the static method initialize is being stripped from com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayerActivity

is that the whole error in logcat?

[novel hill]

can anyone tell me what unity modules do i need to port a simple pc game to android

in the android dev module, there are a couple of extra stuff. Do i need those

[green scarab]

show me a screenshot pls

I haven't looked at it in a while

[novel hill]

theres android sdk and jdk stuff

and open jdk

[green scarab]

well assuming you haven't already installed all of that then yeah install that

[novel hill]

while coding for android do i have to write code in java instead of c#

[robust lintel]

How would I find out about device onscreen keyboard sizes. I've noticed there's some scripts to determine the size of the specific device, but I would like an idea of many different phone devices cause right now my phone keyboard kinda butchers a lot of my screen space and I'm trying to build around that.

[green scarab]

no its still c#

[novel hill]

then why do i need to download jdk for android dev in unity

[analog plover]

Unity uses them to build the mobile app package.

[fervent geyser]

hi guys, i need to embed my unity app in a native ios. It it possible to send a string while launching from native? How can i reda the message in my unity library?

[tired lily]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnityasaLibrary.html

[glossy sluice]

Thank you so much. I‘ll try and come back to you

[glossy sluice]

My mobile app have a size of 2,2GB. Its normal? I saw After I took a back up

[glossy sluice]

In this matter can I change the keystores Dedicated location name in external tools?

[west cobalt]

only if you can provide all the stuffs what unity gets from that location

[humble palm]

When you test iOS builds do you tend to/recommend testing it on your personal phone or an old phone or a used testing device? Provisioning profiles are pretty locked down as I understand it to only run that app on that version, cert and device, but just wondering if there any concerns I wouldn't think of.

[humble palm]

Also developer mode and account settings

[sleek eagle]

For most test builds, use what's easiest.
For performance optimisation use a lower end device
For feature testing use a phone with the features you need

[lyric frigate]

Is there a difference in performance if :

1. i create one object in Blender, import it into Unity and use it 100 times as a prefab.
2. i create this mesh 100 times in Blender and combine it to one object and export it to unity.

[swift jetty]

I'm just guessing, but if they are seperate objects unity would have to keep track of all the transforms, otherwise it's only one transform. But if they are seperate you could disable the ones you currently don't need, which would probably help performance. Testing is your best bet :)

[lyric frigate]

i guess i have to.. im a real noob in Profiler/FrameDebugger 😄 😄

[glossy sluice]

Ok. I still looking for the enviremont variables on mac

[tender summit]

@fallen compass hey so in testing with android logcat but not sure what to look for

i see a bunch of red lines but it dont make much sense

this seems most viable

dunno

for anyone that doesnt know

when i play the game in the editor it all works fine but when i export it to my phone it doesnt work

it tryes to start, but doesnt

says begining of crash

[tired lily]

com.facebook.FacebookContentProvider is not found. Either you're missing that dependency or proguard has removed it. Edit proguard-user.txt and add
-keep class com.facebook.FacebookContentProvider { *; } (enable custom proguard if not already)

[tender summit]

i removed facebook sdk all together and still the same resault

im updating now the editor

see if that fixes it

my current version is 2021.3.6f1

[tender summit]

updating to the latest did nothing

[tired lily]

if you removed the facebook sdk, then what is accessing the FaceBook content provider?

did you edit the android manifest?

[tender summit]

that log is with facebook sdk

i removed sdk after that log

havent tested now

ill post all the log now

then theres this

and again something about facebook for whtever reason

[tired lily]

do you have anything in your android manifest that references FacebookContentProvider?

[tender summit]

ill check

probably have

since facebook is too lazy to setup an uninstall...

culd the splash thing be causing this?

[tired lily]

normally you'd have a build post processor that would tweak the android manifest, so you wouldn't have to do anything but delete the sdk. Unless you did something wrong or edited something manually

[tender summit]

i did edit something manually,

its something we have to aways do

becouse lazy facebook

theres a bunch of stuff

in all of them

wuld unity regenerate if i just delete them

[tired lily]

those ones, yes

look at Assets/Plugins/Android/androidManifest.xml, I assume you have a custom main manifest

[tender summit]

i havent made a custom one

so i delete them all?

[tired lily]

then you probably have a postprocessor modifying it still

are you sure you deleted all the facebook stuff?

[tender summit]

i just deleted the facebook folder

dont see anything else regarding facebook

[tired lily]

you must have something, or it's a dependency of something else

[tender summit]

i didnt see anything about facebook in dependecies

[tired lily]

close Unity, delete $ProjectRoot/Library and build again

[tender summit]

this?

[tired lily]

yes

[tender summit]

ok

[tender summit]

still same thing

will have to remove packages till it starts working

[tired lily]

you definitely missed either Facebook itself or something that depends on Facebook and is pulling it into your project

[robust lintel]

Just a general question, mostly related to tmpro and seems most relevant on mobile, but how do I smooth out my text more depending on different aspect ratios? It just seems to be extra jaggy on some ratios which further creates problems with the outlining shader options.

I've got the anchors/pivot presets correct, and my text autosizing, so while everything else looks good, the text is what's being the problem.

[urban moon]

What could be the reason ads are not displayed on mobile build while on editor they work ?
I have a button which calls "ShowRewarded" methode. Calling the methode does work but the ad is not loaded.
On development build i get "AdFailedLoad" (OnFailedLoad) error.

[tired lily]

I don't work with Unity mediation (I use applovin), but usually the editor is just fake placeholder ads that are only useful in confirming you're calling methods in the right order. Check your configuration. There is nothing useful in the error message? You should also confirm that the sdk initialized without issue

Did you set up a game ID in Edit > Project Settings > Services? Your init lacks a game ID and the docs for your mediation provider say that's where it goes to find it if you don't provide one explicitly

[urban moon]

Yeah i have set up mediation.
I have linked the unity project id and recieved game ids. Unluckily there is no error beside methode "void AdFailedLoad(object sender, LoadErrorEventArgs e)" is called.
Intialization seem to be completed successfully.
No ads are shown in dev build neather in google play internal test build.

I have added a test device aswell on dashboard.unity3d with my play store advertising id

[tired lily]

android or ios? Any errors in logcat or xcode?

[urban moon]

android, no error log from logcat (root)

[tired lily]

set a breakpoint on your ad load failed method and inspect the args, hopefully there's more info in there

[urban moon]

"Autoconnected Player "Autoconnected Player" Ad failed loadedException raised while retrieving the Ad Unit Configuration: com.unity3d.mediation.j0: Failed to fetch Ad Unit due to connectivity issues: Request to https://mediation-instantiation.unityads.unity3d.com/v1/waterfall failed due to java.io.IOException: Instantiation Service configuration request failed with http status code 404 and server response: ad unit configuration not found for game id: XXXX, ad unitid: XXXX"

[tired lily]

well there you go, looks like something is wrong with your waterfall configuration

[urban moon]

everything was on default

[tired lily]

I assume the game id and ad unit id from your error match your configuration, right?

and you're requesting with an ad unit id of "Rewarded_Android" and not the waterfall name?

[urban moon]

oh god, the example code from unity which i was using was outdated (package example). Now i adjusted it and it started working finally. Thanks.

[rancid crypt]

Whenever I try to submit my game to the ios app store they keep saying they can't get the iap working. and that they get this error "purchasingUnavailable" any idea how to solve this?

[sleek eagle]

Is there anything more for the error?
Did you test the iap someway?

[zinc geyser]

Hello guys!
I am developing an Android app, and I am using certain Android APIs that must run on the UIThread.
So I created a plugin and inserted it to the Unity, I invoke methods on the UIThread by calling something like _activity.Call("runOnUiThread", new AndroidJavaRunnable(func));

My question: is the thread that makes this _activity.Call("runOnUiThread", new AndroidJavaRunnable(func)); a main thread?
When I make such a call, is the func executed on the thread it was called, or is it executed on the other thread?

[glossy sluice]

I have a question friends, After I try to build an apk for google play store several erros comes up with the information that my code runs dublicate billing adress. So, If I delete the one duplicate plugin in one of my several back ups does it delete in every back up ?

[brazen birch]

According to Unity Answers - It is caused by Google Billing. If you don't need it, you can remove it. go to Assets/GooglePlayPlugins and delete com.google.play.billing. I suspect you have Unity's IAP installed, and it looks like if oyu install both it breaks.

Hard to say with certainty though, I don't use or recommend Unity's ad or inapp services.

do i need it to see installs on facebook?

does it matter?

im only concerned for installs currently

Thank you so much. But there is written twice - duplicate class. It means there two of them right? So I want IAP for disabled google ads.

[wispy bronze]

How are games like Call of Duty run on mobile? As in, how are they optimized? I'm having difficulties getting 60FPS with very low draw calls and vertices. Yet I see these super high quality games on mobile.

[tender summit]

using a single material

cheap shaders

put everything on an atlas

also set your game to 60fps

for some reason by default they run at 30

[glossy sluice]

Ok. Shall I delete IAP Unity and just usw Google? So if I do so will be Problem solved?

[wispy bronze]

I luckily know about the 30FPS standard thing, and have set my game to 60, but I struggle mostly with the other stuff.

Cheap shaders? Like Unitys Mobile Shaders?

I use very little materials in my game, I have a 16x16 color palette which almost every model uses in my scenes. GPU instancing enabled as well.

What is that Atlas thing?

Oh I looked it up! So essentially I put many different textures into one thats a little higher in resolution, so there could be possibly only one material as you said.

[tender summit]

thats all can say

i havent gotten problem with fps

[latent violet]

Help

Anyone here ever used unity recorder asset before?

Am trying to record a clip via the Unity recorder asset but when i try to record, it throws an error saying something about videoEcoder unsupported

[brazen birch]

Unity needs to do a batch call for every material, and every non static mesh, by default.

So a texture atlas lets you combine many materials into a single material - so you can render the display in a single batch call... It is extremely important on XR and mobile. It essentially sacrificed ram for less GPU and CPU use.

Remove all unused faces.. static objects. Light baking.

@quartz lava i had similar issues but i solved it

Here's the things to know so you'll never have issues with building to android :

1. If you have a SDK in your project(Facebook, game analytics, ad, firebase e.t.c)...always force resolve

2. Before building, make sure you have steady internet connection... Trust me... This is needed to get Android SDKs

3. Select your minimum SDK to be 6.0 (5.1 below is long gone since phones don't support them anymore)

4. Build while internet connection is on.... And if you have errors building, look at the console, if you don't know how to read console error... It's easy

Follow these steps and you'll never have build issues anymore... It works for me and has been working for me... Now i don't even stress when building to android

[glossy sluice]

Hi guys, I Just get into mobile game development using unity and faced a small issue related to the performance and entity speed using Vector3.MoveTowards. In Play Mode it is much faster then in build. I did a little research and people said I should use Time.deltaTime * Speed instead of a fixed float. Anyways - That won't solve the issue. It makes both speeds a little slower but the difference from mobile build to unitys play mode is still about times 30.

Edit: It was related to the CanvasScaler - The speed was fine but the target had to travel a longer distance due to the scaling..

I'm getting people telling me that they are not able to run the game on Android 11. The phone I'm testing on is Android 13 so it's hard to see what the issue is. Shouldn't the game work on all OS down to Android 5.1?

Also running Unity 2021.3.13f1 LTS if that impacts anything

[cursive crescent]

is there a good tutorial on how to build to iOS when im on windows

what i found is using mac in virtual box with some other apps just wanted to ask if theres an easier way

[hidden urchin]

There's a cost here of $7/mo but I use Unity Cloud build to build to iOS when I'm on Windows. Unity Cloud Build will build the app and I just download it on my phone.

Can also use cloud build to send it straight to the app store/testflight

[cursive crescent]

thanks

[hidden urchin]

So ran my app through browserstack to see if it runs in Android 10/11/12 etc, and the app does run. But I have a report from someone who said they're running Android 11 on a specific phone and can't install the game. Are there phone compatibilities?

Is it an architecture issue since I'm only building for ARM64?

[hidden urchin]

Seems like the device in question is running Android 11 on ARMv8-a

[brazen birch]

We mostly used PlayFab/Photon (games). Or an internal framework (client experiences)

[final herald]

I'm using in app purchasing but neither of OnInitializeFailed or OnInitialized is called when testing on Android

ideas?

[tired lily]

did you check logcat output? Usually you'll find that some class or method is missing because proguard removed it

[final herald]

yes but logcat shows nothing

I was using Codeless IAP before, logcat only printed "Is Not Initialized" so I changed to code

by the way I never know how to see Debug.Log("") messages in logcat

so instead I used a actual UI text to debug

like in the above code

[tired lily]

that's a bad plan that will lead you to misery later, the least problem of which is that if your code throws an exception you won't see any output unless you catch exceptions in every possible place

where is the code that calls these two methods?

[final herald]

these two are just directly inherited from the IStoreListener

namespace UnityEngine.Purchasing
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Implemented by Application developers using Unity Purchasing.
    /// </summary>
    public interface IStoreListener
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Purchasing failed to initialise for a non recoverable reason.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="error"> The failure reason. </param>
        void OnInitializeFailed(InitializationFailureReason error);

        /// <summary>
        /// A purchase succeeded.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="purchaseEvent"> The <c>PurchaseEventArgs</c> for the purchase event. </param>
        /// <returns> The result of the successful purchase </returns>
        PurchaseProcessingResult ProcessPurchase(PurchaseEventArgs purchaseEvent);

        /// <summary>
        /// A purchase failed with specified reason.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="product"> The product that was attempted to be purchased. </param>
        /// <param name="failureReason"> The failure reason. </param>
        void OnPurchaseFailed(Product product, PurchaseFailureReason failureReason);

        /// <summary>
        /// Purchasing initialized successfully.
        ///
        /// The <c>IStoreController</c> and <c>IExtensionProvider</c> are
        /// available for accessing purchasing functionality.
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="controller"> The <c>IStoreController</c> created during initialization. </param>
        /// <param name="extensions"> The <c>IExtensionProvider</c> created during initialization. </param>
        void OnInitialized(IStoreController controller, IExtensionProvider extensions);
    }
}

so they should be called internally

at least they are in the Editor

but not on Android and I don't know why

[tired lily]

yes, and you initialize with what? What implements IStoreListener?

[final herald]

it's just a standard IAPManager.cs like every single one out there

[tired lily]

did you initialize UGS first?

[final herald]

what is UGS?

I don't think I need it

[tired lily]

Unity Gaming Services. The docs for setting up Unity IAP say this: "If you attempt to use the Unity IAP service without first initializing Unity Gaming Services, you will receive the following warning message:" so my assumption is you are getting a warning in the logs that you ignore because you're debugging using UI text

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.purchasing@4.5/manual/UnityIAPInitializeUnityGamingServices.html

a lot of these APIs don't function in the editor or are stubbed out, so you wouldn't know anything is wrong necessarily until you tried it on an actual device

I'm unfamiliar with Unity IAP so I don't know if this is the case, but it's common for ad networks

[final herald]

every single tutorial out there didn't mention this and I know some friends all set it up this way but it works on their sides

now the question is how do I check the logs in logcat

does Debug.Log() gets included?

[tired lily]

yes, filter by Unity tag

[final herald]

of course I tried that, but no Unity stuff at all

so they must just got all stripped?

[tired lily]

make a dev build and make sure you can see output from that process to start with

https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/logcat

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19931987/how-to-filter-logcat-in-android-studio

[willow verge]

Just wondering if anyone can help me with this — I'm really stuck! How can I use a pre-built .so lib file in my android project? I want to use classes derived from monobehaviour that are inside the .so file and attach them to gameobjects. I have been looking at dllimport and dllexport but I'm not sure if those are applicable in my case. Also, I do not have access to the source code. Thanks in advance!

[tired lily]

there aren't going to be any classes derived from MonoBehavior in the so. Have a look at https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/NativePlugins.html

[willow verge]

Thank you! So using this method, can I create a monobehaviour script using only the functions/methods from the .so file?

[tired lily]

yes, if you know what they are and they're accessible

[vague pilot]

Does anyone know how to fix this error I have tried a lot? but couldn't get it working

[tired lily]

did you create a placement called Interstitial_Android for your game (and assuming 5010385 is your game id)?

[vague pilot]

wrong pic

wait nvm put could You see the error selected?

[tired lily]

yes ... that's the Unity side. Did you do the configuration part in your dashboard?

[vague pilot]

sorry

[tired lily]

hmmm looks okay to me. Make sure there aren't any dumb errors (spacing in names). It might also take a little while before your ad units become active. How long ago did you set this up?

[vague pilot]

2 days ago

and copied the ID from the dash board

[willow verge]

What do you mean by accessible?

[tired lily]

are they exported functions? Are you able to marshal data to them that matches their argument types? Is it designed to be interacted with from Unity? There might be some other hurdles for you

[tired lily]

this is plenty of time. Did you create placements for your ad units?

[vague pilot]

what do you mean by placement

[tired lily]

I don't use unity ads directly, but normally there is more configuration than just creating ad units. Did you do any setup for your waterfall?

[vague pilot]

I mean this is what my waterfall looks like

[tired lily]

hmmm our dashboards are different, mine literally calls it "placements". If you go to the setup guide, does it say anything in there?

[vague pilot]

would I go under API management

[tired lily]

no, Project Overview -> Setup Guide -> and then on mine there are 4 steps, step 3 is configure ad units and step 4 is setup placements

otherwise your setup looks correct to me, and I would just verify that it's also not working on a physical device since the sdk isn't really running in the editor

[vague pilot]

if I just use Unity ads do I have to mess with placement ID

no other meditation stuff

[tired lily]

maybe somebody more experienced than I can chime on on that, I haven't had to mess with the configuration for ages. There is usually a test game id and test ad unit you can use, do those work?

[final herald]

again, if anyone has any ideas, please let me know
( Update: it was because I didn't add
implementation(name: 'common', ext:'aar')
in my gradle file)

[fallen compass]

This doesn't look like your IDE is setup correctly - inconsistent colouring.

Are you actually calling the initialization of purchasing?

nm , you edited your msg while I was scrolled up

Hey guys I have a been making an android game and when I try to build the game and it's almost done the build fails and drops me this error:

*In english Win32Exception Native error= The system cannot find the file specified
I am stuck at this can you pls help?

[tepid saffron]

Hi is there some recommended number of polygons for character in mobile game

[sleek eagle]

No, this depends on what devices are targeted, how much performance the other aspects of the game take up, how many bones can deform 1 vertex, and much more.

[tepid saffron]

Is there anything that can help me with this?

[sleek eagle]

Profiling tools

[kind wren]

anyone know how to fix this?

[sleek eagle]

As it says, see the console for details

[kind wren]

And thats where things get complicated

It give a path to jdk something but nothing else

[west cobalt]

Does 2021 Terrain still lags in Mobile?

I mean....is terrain now usable in mobile Devices?

anyone know how to fix this? "fix object name" button isnt doing anything at all

[undone narwhal]

Hey guys I have been making an android game and when try to build it this error pops up
The system cannot find the specified file unity
See?

Can you pls help? I have been stuck at this for weeks

[dusk sage]

How to fix "Gradle build failed. See the console for details."? This is what i got in console:

[tired lily]

might be a normal error. Are you running test ads? You won't always have an ad to show if no ad networks are willing to supply you with one

[tired lily]

probably something is wrong with your android sdk or ndk. Try re-installing via Unity hub or updating Unity version. I remember some version of the sdk being broken because they moved a folder, but I don't remember which

[tired lily]

you need to look at the details; click on the errors

[dusk sage]

i checked

i dont really understand what they want to mean

[tired lily]

that sounds like a good reason to google/post them though, right? Lots of things can go wrong in an android build. It's almost impossible to help people when they won't post what the actual error(s) are

[glossy sluice]

This is what he means

[tired lily]

What's the confusion with your error? looks like you just need to enable useAndroidX. Build settings -> publishing -> use custom gradle properties template. Add line android.useAndroidX=true and line android.enableJetifier=true to it if they don't exist and rebuild

[dusk sage]

now i am getting this

[tired lily]

do you have any missing dependencies?

[dusk sage]

how to check if i have?

[tired lily]

Did you install any dependencies yourself? Are you using the external dependency manager? If you are, did you resolve with it?

[dusk sage]

I dont know what dependencies are in unity

[tired lily]

you didn't install anything third-party?

[dusk sage]

some packages

[dusk sage]

Are they counted as dependencies?

[tired lily]

uh, if they're needed to build your project and make it work then yes?

[dusk sage]

they're: photon, joystick, probuilder, progrids

[tired lily]

I haven't encountered your specific problem before but some google results are promising

[dusk sage]

I tried some. And i still can't find one that will fix my problem.

[tired lily]

you read through this right? https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/dependency_locking.html#disabling_dependency_locking

[dusk sage]

nah

[dusk sage]

Wait. That started to happen after i downloaded unityads package

It started to work when i removed unity ads

So there still a problem. I cant build with unity ads package installed.

[glossy sluice]

Where is it written in packages which dependecies are work in my prokect?

[tired lily]

package manager, external dependency manager, anything you manually installed to Plugins/Android or any subdir that matching that scheme, any scripts that do postprocessing on your project (BuildPostProcessor, IPostGenerateGradleAndroidProject) could add or edit them, any dependencies that are themselves dependencies of your dependencies and are resolved when you build the project

I assume you're trying to debug your duplicate class issue, so I'd be exporting the project and looking at what's in your build.gradle script for unityLibrary

[hushed harbor]

Hi, im trying to connect unity to my phone with the app Unity remote 5, but my phone is not detected here in device settings, i don't why 😭 can someone help me please :d

[tired lily]

did you enable developer mode on the device, allow debugging, and checked if it's detected by adb?

[hushed harbor]

oh I didn't check that ^^ i'm downloading adb and i'll see thanks

[tired lily]

you already have it in your android sdk under platform tools

[hushed harbor]

i don't need nothing on my pc?

[rugged bough]

Anyone got experience with Kindred SDK for monetization ? The idea sounds pretty good, but how does it work out in reality

[tired lily]

assuming you added the android support module so you can build to android devices, correct

[hushed harbor]

my pc doesn't have android sdk also, i'll see if it will work with adb

[tired lily]

seems like they're trying to get users to install a keyboard extension for their device browser. Which part of the idea sounds good? I'm curious

[rugged bough]

leaning more to commision / affiliate

affiliate can be pretty profitable, but usually not something that is put in an app

if i understand it right

was just interested if someone actually tried it

but calculation on their site wasnt super profitable

[hushed harbor]

its still not working;( I did all the things to do on my phone but nope 😦

[rugged bough]

Had the same issue today and sometimes have, im on mac tho.

But what i did is use another android sdk, the one i had from android studio, and also make sure to use usb-debugging.

Also, do you get access to the phone outside of unity? If not, that maybe your usb is a charger only?

Google and see some stackoverflow threads too

I assume the sdks found in android studio is downloadable from their android google website too

[hushed harbor]

i am on wibdows so idk why its not working

[rugged bough]

When i used pc i had littke problem

[hushed harbor]

i can still transfer program to my phone with my USB cable so i don't think that's the issue

[rugged bough]

Okay

Like u can access files etc?

[hushed harbor]

ye

[rugged bough]

You restarted unity?

Try restarting it and let the cable still be connected

I only build my games to the phone but the device not showing up is the same problem i had

You have android studio?

[hushed harbor]

when i connect my phone to my pc its written that i'm connected, but its not written that USB debugging is on

but i did it

[hushed harbor]

on pc ya

but i just downloaded it

[rugged bough]

But your developer settings is on with usb debugging?

[hushed harbor]

ya

[rugged bough]

Okay id say try see if your device shows up in android studio

If it does, use the sdk in unity path

[hushed harbor]

i never used android studio atm, idk how to do^^

[rugged bough]

Create a "empty" project and call it android or smthng, then u go to tools and sdk manager

From there you can find out sdk etc

[hushed harbor]

hmm ok i'll try it, just need to download some things

[rugged bough]

Ya

Use google too

Android studio is well documented

Stackoverflow and all

[hushed harbor]

okay thanks

[rugged bough]

Np hope u work it out

[hushed harbor]

what do i do here?

im sry to bother you haha

[rugged bough]

That worked for me but it can be a bit messy and not knowing what is wrpng sometimes

Sdk tools

U see that window

[hushed harbor]

it is

that's my screen ya

[rugged bough]

Yeah but the one above

Where it says "Sdk tools"

[hushed harbor]

oh ya

[rugged bough]

Take the google usb driver too

Then since u have the sdk etc, probably got it now that you downloaded android s

Studio

Try also as said install google usb driver in the list

Then once u done go to unity, and pref, and insted of android sdk with unity u reference that sdk

For me i got a note saying i had another path to a sdk and i pressed that to use it

Sooo.. for me i unchecked sdk with unity and put the path to this one

[hushed harbor]

do I need to download sdk android?

[rugged bough]

U got it

I said installen on the sdk tools list

Installed*

Jump in to unity and preferences and at the unity android sdk (or something alike) u now give the other (newest) sdk u got from android studio

Got it?

[hushed harbor]

im here, but i don't understand how to transfer new sdk, well how to take it

[rugged bough]

Uncheck android sdk

Uncheck the check mark

[hushed harbor]

done

[rugged bough]

If it asks id you want to use the other one and locates it good

Else search google for android studio android sdk path

[hushed harbor]

i copied my sdk path in it

so normally it's fine

it changed nothing unfortunately, i think the problem come from my phone, because USB debugging message should be here, and it's not

[rugged bough]

Show me a scrn shot of the sdk path

To make sure

And hmm

Also on phone, try to revoke the debugging

And allow it once again when putting in your cable

[hushed harbor]

that the one i took here

[rugged bough]

Okay good

Also did u add the google usb driver thingy from that list too?

[hushed harbor]

yup

[rugged bough]

Heard it worked for someone else

Hmm

Not sure then

[hushed harbor]

that is so frustrating

idk what to do then'.', I watched different tuto but none worked

but i've done what they did xD

[rugged bough]

Yeah very annoying

Basic, but you restarted the computer?

Sometimes it just popped for me

Like taking out the usb cable and put it back in

[verbal scarab]

Hey there! I am having errors when trying to build for android release build. They seem to be coming from Java JDK and Gradle. Does anyone know what is going on?

[rugged bough]

Try this, saw it on unity forum, @hushed harbor I resolve the problem. In USB connection mode, on my phone, there are 4 options:
Transfer files
transfer images
Connect a MIDI device
Charge this phone.
I ONLY changed the connection mode to TRANSFER IMAGES. After that, I reveived a prompt asking me to viladate this connection mode. I did it and it works fine.

[hushed harbor]

i also tried it, but still not working;(

thanks for your help but idk why I'm cursed xD

[tired lily]

any chance you're using some ad mediator? This looks exactly like something I encountered and had to make a hacky workaround for

[verbal scarab]

This comes from installing a Game Analytics SDK from a publisher im working for. But i wont find them till Monday and i kinda want to workaround this

[tired lily]

does their sdk assume admob is installed? That's what the problem I encountered was

[verbal scarab]

I dont think so .. I mean i ve published for them before and it is always error after error lol

[tired lily]

specifically I had the fyber ad network installed which referenced admob, so I had to install + disable admob

[verbal scarab]

I didnt have issues with AdMob the other time

It uses Facebook SDK though

[tired lily]

are you sure it's the game analytics sdk? the fyber sdk was installed in my case due to having fyber as one of the ad networks used in our mediation layer

assuming that's it, you could either try my workaround or downgrade to a previous version of fyber that doesn't cause the problem. It's kind of old-'ish (a year+?) though

[verbal scarab]

So you propose to download AdMob and then disable it?

How would i disable it?

I dont even know what fyber is honestly

[tired lily]

include it as a dependency, then edit your android manifest to:

1. remove its InitProvider: com.google.android.gms.ads.MobileAdsInitProvider (it will crash app on launch without a valid application id)
2. remove Service: com.google.android.gms.ads.AdService
3. remove meta-data (optional): com.google.android.gms.ads.APPLICATION_ID

alternatively, the last fyber version I used that didn't cause a problem was 7.8.4 iirc

[verbal scarab]

how can i change to that version?

when you say include it as a dependency on the step above i dont know what you mean 🙂

sorry for that i m really new to this

[tired lily]

how is it getting added to your project?

something is causing it to be included in your build. If you're using external dependency manager, you might have dependencies in XML that reference it directly or indirectly

[verbal scarab]

All those things got added when i imported the publishers SDK

So it is not something i did

Their SDK comes as a unity package

[tired lily]

I assume they have an example app, does that one build? I'd bet it doesn't

[verbal scarab]

Ahh .. i dont want to screw in this channel .. but they dont have s@@@

All they have is a package to install and it always causes different type of errors lol

I ll probably have to wait for Monday to contact them

[tired lily]

do you just need it to build or are you making something for production? The easiest solution would be to test it with dev builds (no proguard) and then complain on Monday

[verbal scarab]

I m making a build for Google Play

The game builds fine without it

Let me do a quick development build to see if i m actually correct

[tired lily]

you'll bypass that error above if you do a dev build, you're getting it from a proguard validation step

[verbal scarab]

yeah it is exactly as you mentioned

The build succeeds as dev build

Well i guess i have a day off tomorrow lol

[tired canopy]

Anyone knows the solution for text (legacy) and textmeshpro not showing in some android devices? I have tried a bunch of things from Unity forums but nothing seems to be working

Everything else in the UI is showing properly, just the text is missing

I've tried changing the canvas from overlay to world space, creating legacy instead of textmeshpro and a bunch of stuff

Sorry

[glossy sluice]

Sounds easy so where I‘ll find it?

I have an issue where my movement buttons for Android work in Remote and in editor, but in build they dont execute the assigned scripts.

I originally developed The game on pc and am trying to make it work on my phone.

Buttons have a separate script where left and right buttons change the move float to 1 and -1 in the original movement script.

Jump key has a script assigned which just executes the jump from the other movement script.

In build these buttons can be pressed but they dont do anything.

Can anyone help?

When I was testing the buttons in Unity Remote 5, they worked without issues, but now they wont work on phone.

Editor playtesting works but that's useless if I can't play game on phone..

[brazen birch]

You'll need to Debug it on the phone itself. You can use the built in Android logger in Unity (package manager) to pull the logs and see what is different. There isnt enough info here to help you, as we don't know how you added movement etc etc.

[glossy sluice]

Movement on my character is through changing the rb velocity with the horizontal move float * movespeed. All movement is on Script A and work perfectly.

Mobile movement is through script B which is referencing script A and changing the move float to -1 on left and 1 on right. On pointer up, move sets to 0

I set up script B with referencing so that I wouldnt need to go through all levels to set player reference to the controls.

Basically Script B changes the move float which then causes movement in Script A's part.

Jump is just executing the Jump(); command from Script A in Script B

[hollow umbra]

When uploading an app to the appstore, is there a way to hide your personal name from appearing on the app store as the publisher?

[tired lily]

hard to tell without seeing your project. What third party dependencies do you have? Do you have a GooglePlayBilling that you put in your project somewhere? How do you resolve your dependencies? We can only guess from here

[brazen birch]

That's managed by the appstore - not by Unity. I'm assuming you are looking at apple, and the short answer is not really for individual accounts, no

[vague pilot]

Hello I am making a game and I was wondering if anyone can play test it to give me recommendations bug reports etc I can send a pc Mac android or iPhone build

[latent violet]

Anyone knows how to get the new unity runner template?

I can't find where to download it and it's not in my latest unity hub

[glossy sluice]

Found the solution - In my mobile script I was referencing the original movement script with "GameObject.FindObjectWithTag". Apparently that doesn't work on build so i changed it to "GameObject.FindObjectOfType" and that worked.

[verbal scarab]

Hey so basically the issue was solved by deleting a fyber dependency xml that was installed with the SDK. It was unnecessary and their fix was telling me to delete that lol

Thnx for the help the other day you were really close to that

I just didnt know how to implement the fix

[gaunt cove]

Hello everyone, we have a very weird bug with the app and it started after migration to plastic scm. We build the game for android with no errors in console but when we install the game it crash before it even opens. Since we didnt have any log or errors i launched the apk thru Android Studio and used Logcat to see what is going on and this is what i get upon launching the app.
If anyone has any idea please share.

Apk works fine when i build it in the project that is on github, so my best guess is that some android dependecies messed up upon migrating the project to plastic.

[fluid dragon]

Hi so I am not sure id I should ask this here or not, but I am trying to bypass my ssl pinning certificate on my android build to check my network traffic using mitmproxy for debugging. I couldn't find a reliable way to do this could someone point me in the right direction?

[glossy sluice]

I appreciate it. Here are my depencies:

[tired lily]

make a dev build, if it builds and runs you're probably looking at a proguard issue. I assume you have already re-resolved any dependencies in case that's the problem

[verbal scarab]

Hey so i got an issue with my Release build again. While the development build runs fine on my mobile when i test the game, when i make a Release build it always crashes on startup before even displaying the Unity logo. Just a black screen and the app doesnt close but minimizes from the screen. Trying to reopen it when minimized doesnt work either as it just minimizes again. Do you know anything about what might be the cause of it?

[tired lily]

Do you have any output from logcat?

[verbal scarab]

I dont know where to find that. Gimme a second to find that online and see

[tired lily]

check external dependency manager's resolved libraries, too. I see you have play billing in there, so something is pulling in an extra copy. Look through your third party dependencies and try to find it. It might be there directly, or referenced through a dependency xml file that EDM is using, or implicitly referenced by something else

[verbal scarab]

I got an app Logcat Extreme on my phone. The error that seems to show up when i try to play the game is "not starting debugger since process cannot load the jdwp agent" this seems to repeat when i try to open the game.

There is also a popup that says "(Game name) is stopping"

[tired lily]

Why an app? you already have adb installed. I like to export to android studio and run a release build from there, it mostly does the right thing for you as far as filtering log messages goes

[verbal scarab]

Ok i will try that i havent used that yet

[tired lily]

if you look at Admir's output, you can see all the angry red that tells you exactly why the app isn't working. You're blind until you find out what's gone wrong in initialization

[verbal scarab]

Ok thnx for opening my eyes here 🙂 I m really new to this all

[tired lily]

atm you have 2 possibilities:

1. proguard ripped something out that it shouldn't have (you'll see text like his)
2. you have an ANR issue during startup on release builds, where you or one of your dependencies is stalling the main thread for so long that the OS decides your app is frozen and kills it

[verbal scarab]

Ok new information i think it is proguard

I had this enabled

After disabling it the app runs fine on my phone

But is Google Play going to accept it that way?

[tired lily]

okay, re-enable it, then look at logcat output for missing classes

yes, but it's just a matter of finding out what's missing and excluding those class(es) from being removed. We're talking a handful of text in proguard-user.txt now to fix it

you just need to find out what's gone missing

[verbal scarab]

I am guessing the fyber file that the publisher dev team told me to delete to workaround the error i had yesterday lol

i just installed Android Studio let me figure this out

@tired lily Should i worry about that?
Can i install it in a different location instead?

[tired lily]

you should use the sdk and ndk that Unity is using to build your app

[verbal scarab]

This is asked during Android Studio installation

Should i copy the path form Unity --> External tools and put it there then?

[tired lily]

if it's installing the sdk for you, fix it like it mentions. When you open your exported project Unity should have configured the right sdk for you. It's been a while since I installed android studio

[verbal scarab]

I think i can just probably choose another location

[verbal scarab]

@tired lily I went to Google Play to upload the new version of the app, as i had already uploaded the old one that wasn't working. Don't ask why i didn't check that, it is kind of embarrassing honestly. The old one was "In Review" status so no one saw that lol.

Now you think this will be fine and they ll upload the new version when that review passes?

I feel i m good, but i m not sure

I ll also try to read a bit about android studio tomorrow and try to find what caused the error then because it is almost 1am here and i think my main goal is completed

[tired lily]

well it's your call, they're not going to reject it because you didn't obfuscate your code

[verbal scarab]

ok nice i m glad this went well

@tired lily Thank you for your support during that stressful time ❤️

If I'm developing a VR game and testing it on my Meta Quest Pro, is there any way I can connect the editor to that for live debugging? If I want to see what certain properties are set to or make a change to test something, I don't want to have to rebuild the app.

[sleek eagle]

Yep, using oculus link/airlink or virtual desktop

[winged osprey]

Anything that doesn’t require me to be on Windows or Mac?

I use Linux

[quartz kernel]

Quest Link is only available on windows

The only option you have for testing in editor is faking input like with the XR device simulator

BTW there is a dedicated #🥽┃virtual-reality channel

[winged osprey]

I saw that, but I figured the question I had was more specific to Android than VR.

[proven mural]

hi all

im new here

im developing a mobile game where swiping is the movement.
i.e

hold -> swipe upwards or downwards -> release -> then player character 'jump's from one place to another.

i been trying various things with the rigidbody and the input system but in execution it looks odd. the player will sometimes gain so much speed that it goes through collision walls

do you have any other suggestions on how to implement this kind of movement controls?

[gaunt cove]

Dev build also crashes before it even loads. I re-solved dependices, deleted library, apk still crashes on startup. We didnt import any new assets after migration, so the project should be the same, but still it works on git when we build but not when we build now on plastic.
In case anyone saw anything simillar here is the error from logcat, when i hook the apk to android studio

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to get provider androidx.startup.InitializationProvider: androidx.startup.StartupException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Failed resolution of: Lkotlin/collections/CollectionsKt

We even tried to download latest unity version. still the same, app crashes before it even loads.

[kind wren]

anybody know why this happen

it worked before

[glossy sluice]

I appreciate it. Where can i find the third parties?

[tired lily]

you need to reauthorize debugging on your device (it should pop open a window)

[tired lily]

presumably you installed them, so you'll find them under Assets or in packages

[kind wren]

Thanks

[glossy sluice]

Thank you. Do you know how it calls? And should I deinstalled?

[silver musk]

Hey. Wrote up this code to get GPS user position data (in intervals when a button is pressed and on app start). It work's on my phone, but not on the Android 10 device that I'm actually building the app for. It seems to have a problem with getting location permissions from Android 10.

It used to work on a different build when I started the refresh interval from the beginning instead of having it start/stop depending on the button status.

[analog plover]

For one in Start you call RefreshLocation without waiting for the user to grant location permissions

and in the coroutine you wait for 10 seconds for the permissions and then continue regardless of whether the user gave permissions or not

[silver musk]

Okay, I changed the script, still works on my phone, testing it on the Android 10 device this evening when I get the chance to do it. Thanks!

Does anyone have any idea of how to deliver and use play store asset bundles when developing Unity as a Library app?
(i.e unity is embedded into another android app)

Hello!

I downloaded a sample android native plugin from unity docs.

My plan was to see how I can use .so files in my project. When I import the package, load the scene and hit play, I get an error dllnotfoundexception.

I've tried so many things and nothing works! I would really appreciate any help or suggestions! Thank you!

unity mediation isnt loading any editor test ads for me, and neither giving a message. I am able to initialize mediation services but loadAd call doesn't load any editor test ad, in debug logs show that this code isn't being called at all

I'm using unity mediation btw, and I have some questions about that. Will unity mediation continue to function the way it is and allow bidding, or will most ads be served on the ironSource LivePlay mediation?
The reason I am asking is because I learned how to set up unity mediation and I am comfortable using that long term, switching to LivePlay means to spending a week (usually frustrating. This is due to custom in game mechanics.) to set up the process again.

[willow verge]

Stupid question... Does this mean I can't play the scene/run the script in editor then? I need to use an emulator e.g. Android studio

[tired lily]

yes, you'll need an emulator or run on a physical device if you want to test the actual calls. Normally they're just stubbed out or approximate native behavior with some other logic in the editor

[willow verge]

Thank you! I don't have an armv7 device so will set up an emulator then

[past plover]

do you need to own an iphone if you want to release a game on ios ?

Hey guys I just release my first app on the Android Store, but the login with Google Game Service and relative achievements doesn't work when downloading the app.
Instead they works while building directly the same app bundle on my phone. Any idea of why this is happening?
Just getting really confused about it.

[tired lily]

disclaimer: I don't use google game service, but you might be missing the sha fingerprint of your game from whatever configuration you're using. Google signs your bundle with a private key so it won't be the same as your debug fingerprint

I have 2 years of game dev experience but not really much with android games but I'll try

in my opinion you should try to monetize a game only once you have like a bunch of game dev experience

Alright

my review:

[chilly canyon]

that's good advice but it's my goal to make the game popular 🙂

[void mantle]

yeah but I meant in-game purchases with that

and that doesn't make your game more popular

[chilly canyon]

Oh, i understand

You mean this

[void mantle]

++ nice main menu music, fitting to the feel of the game (you should also put it in the actual game)
++ nice and simple graphics, not distracting

• nice UI and font choice (except for the icons in the main menu; they look really blurry and when clicking on the one in the top left I didn't know it would take me to play services)
  ++ really nice transitions, animations & effects

• since this game mechanic already exists multiple times, maybe add a twist to the game mechanics?
• the settings look pretty complicated (make toggles instead of buttons)
• for the quit button, make the popup also go down again once you cancelled quitting (looks weird moving all through the whole screen)
  -- too easy, add a difficulty curve (smaller spike distances over time etc.) => I was easily able to get a highscore of 42 and could theoretically get infinite
  -- add more game elements for more interesting scenarios

[chilly canyon]

thanks for the feedback, it will help me improve my game

[void mantle]

for the game page:
-- music doesn't fit at all

• thumbnail looks pretty pixelated and not interesting at all (add maybe bloom and color correction etc.)
• don't die so early in the trailer, just make fast transitions to other gameplay-situations which would look way more interesting
• show off more (not only gameplay, but also main menu etc.)
• for the game icon it's the same as for the trailer thumbnail; make it more interesting

• screenshots are good selected but there are too many and none shows the beautiful transition from the main menu to the game or even the main menu itself

all in all, really good and juicy feel of the game, but there's still much to improve in the backstage

Hi guys, I'm trying to implement the admob ads on unity but to no avail, on unity editor will work but on android device the game crashes as soon as I click on the icon.
I also followed this tutorial but nothing:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKL3k-Uk5JU&t=67s

Unity version: 2021.3.2f1
ADMob version: v7..1.0

Somebody can help me with this?

[glossy sluice]

Did you answered on my message above?

[chilly canyon]

Yes

[brazen birch]

You can use the Android Logcat, in package manager, to see the error happening when it crashes out on you

Or through adb

[fringe sparrow]

Hey guys, im trying to use Unity ads and so Im following the Unity documentation, to install "Advertisement Legacy" and "Advertisement with Mediation". I copy pasted the script "Initializing the SDK in Unity" script but I am getting some errors when trying to access certain things as seen in this screen shot

I have been searching online and can't find what to do as various yt videos are out of date

Using Unity 2021.3.11f1 and Ads package 4.4.1

Alright I think I figured it out. If anyone runs into this issue this is what I found out.

If you try to make the script in a folder and are adding an assembly definition in it. Then these scripts can not see, the Unity Ads package since they are in another assembly. So I just created the same script outside that folder and fixed.

[fervent viper]

Hello I'm having problems with the Xcode build of my game, the error says "Duplicated Symbols for arquitecture ARM64" I'm been stuck for a few days now I don't know what to do can somebody help me please?

[fringe sparrow]

Also if you want to add this file to where your other files are with the assembly definition then you just have to add this reference on this spot of the assembly definition

[fervent viper]

If anybody has this problem, the issue it was that Unity needs to rebuild the script once you decide to change the platform. Just add a comment in a script and let it reload the script before building the project

[royal merlin]

From adb i don't get nothing because the game doesn't start. It crash before opening

[fallen compass]

adb will still give logs whan an app crashes whilst launching

[indigo condor]

why when I export my project to android studio seems to set the apk for armeabi arquitecture? where is that setting?

this is what appears when i try to run the project on the emulator

I'd apreciate any help im new on android till now i just did ios builds

[silent pecan]

I placed an ad in my game, but when the ad opens, the game's music continues to play in the background.
Is this happening because I'm in test mode or do I need to write some other code to fix this problem?

[sleek eagle]

In project settings - player settings - android - other settings enable IL2CPP and enable 64 bit/arm64.

Also something else: you don't need android studio at all. You can simply build from unity for usually a faster workflow

[sleek eagle]

If you don't stop the audio of the game I am not surprised the audio does not stop. Mute the game audio when the ad shows

[silent pecan]

thank you i got it done in a different way

since my android say 'won't install the apk'
I just download the .apk manually from directory

[sleek eagle]

Is your phone in dev mode with usb debugging on? @frail obsidian

Then you can see your phone in 'run device'

Otherwise show the error

[frail obsidian]

now I switch to manual method
build the .apk manually and install it manually
new situation occur, the .apk is crashing for some reason ..

is there any particular configuration for android 11 ?
I'm making some AR with Vuforia,
and surprisingly the results really big it's around 70mb
for just the image tracking and animated cube
🤷‍♂️

this is my set up and still stopping

it works on runtime already

[waxen blaze]

what is usually the best aspect ratio/resolution for me to make my game at?

[brazen birch]

Adb also lets you see the general Android logs. It should still show you the attempt to execute and if it closed the program for any reason before starting up

[brazen birch]

All of them (use a canvas set to scalar at 0.5). I usually test in landscape mostly, and then do a final ultra wide, wide, portrait, and square test to make sure all the UIs adjust properly

It's common for me to use two different UI stacks for widescreen and portrait though

Just to get a more comfortable layout

Hi where i can learn about unity mobile third person player controller (move , look around , jump and fire)

[latent lantern]

Hi! Oh boy I am frustrated today. I switched on Symlink Sources on a totally working build to see if it might speed up iteration time. Well it failed miserably as expected, so I switched back off Symlink Sources. However, ever since that moment of great hubris when I ticked that checkbox, my game fails to build! It has this opaque error about an index being out of range:

System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.
   at iOSPlayerBuildProgram.SetupTargetForInludedFile(IncludedFile file)
   at iOSPlayerBuildProgram.AddProjectFile(NPath srcPath, NPath dstPath, Boolean addToEmbeddedBinaries, String targetGUID, Boolean shouldAddToProject, SymlinkType symlinkType)

   at PlayerBuildProgramTypeWrapper.Run(String[] args)

And so yeah, I am now completely dead in the water, all cuz I had the arrogance to momentarily tick a checkbox.

I would file a bug but the last one I filed two months ago hasn't seen any movement so I'm not willing to waste my time with Unity's bug reporting system. They don't respect my time, so I don't respect theirs.

[latent lantern]

And now, with the typical advice of Just delete your Library folder and restart, loser The project won't even open.

[fringe sparrow]

and that is why we use source control

[brazen birch]

You also have to keep in mind: They don't respect my time, so I don't respect theirs. the problem with this statement is it neglects the fact you are stuck with an issue, they are not. So really it only hurts yourself.

Not sure if you are just wanting to complain or actually seeking advice.

But if you read that stack trace, it sounds like it failed to copy a plugin for iOS. Which means either a plugin inside a package or a /plugin in your project isn't copying to the build folder and mostly likely needs to be toggled (or the /obj and /temp folders are causing a problem). A few possibilities there, but I don't really like to troubleshoot Apple stuff, and again not sure you really want help anyway ... So good luck in your journey.

[brazen birch]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.mobile.notifications@2.1/manual/index.html

The Unity Mobile Notifications package adds support for scheduling local one-time or repeatable notifications on Android and iOS.

It looks like you may be able to cancel it. But I suspect you need to code it at app run time, which only helps if they launch the app

You probably could create a manual plugin for it. But I'm not seeing an easy way

You could set 7 manually instead of a repeat though

notification.Title = "Your Title";
notification.Text = "Your Text";
notification.FireTime = System.DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(1);

AndroidNotificationCenter.SendNotification(notification, "channel_id");```

Basically loop that 7 times and increment the day for each one.

[plush crest]

Hey everyone, I'm trying to create a mobile game where there's an image gallery of around 500 images. each image is around 1mb in size and so i can't load them all in at once because that would use a lot of memory.

So currently, i've placed all the images in the StreamingAssets folder and then at runtime loading it into a RawImage component. This works well but I was wondering if there is a more efficient way of loading this? I'll also use this same method for loading audioclips for each image. Hope someone can point me in the right direction!

Running unity 2022.1.23f1 on Windows I'm noticing some times my iOS target builds produce a Il2CppOutputProject in the Output folder, and some times they do not. Is this related to some option I have selected?

[sleek eagle]

Probably il2cpp?

[heavy wraith]

I've read up in il2cpp a bunch of times but don't see how/when/why it would apply to an iOS compilation.

It sounded like when you want JiT for a platform

[sleek eagle]

The default is mono, but il2cpp is faster.
The new unity versions got incremental builds, which introduces the folder as a cache

[heavy wraith]

How would I toggle that within Unity? I've seen very, very few iOS build options.

[sleek eagle]

Go to project settings - Player settings - ios tab - Others

There the architecture can be il2cpp or mono

It's about how the game will be compiled

[heavy wraith]

Let me take a look, I'd find it crazy if they randomly were changing on me.

Hmm, looks like IL2CPP is greyed out/unselectable. Perhaps tied to something different in there. That folder isn't appearing anymore which I found strange.

[sleek eagle]

Screenshot?

[sleek eagle]

Ahhh ios builds are locked to il2cpp because of apple requirements

Then I'm unsure why it only happens with some projects

[heavy wraith]

Yeah, so strange.

When the folder is present I get a ton of IL2CPP build errors

The folders inside aren't named correctly.

Mac_x64 instead of Mac_x86_64 for example IIRC

Just really odd stuff.

I've done a full reinstall a few times working my way back until I'm on the version I'm on trying to get it stable for more than a few weeks. I should probably just bite the bullet and have Unity on my Mac but I prefer to develop on Windows and just move over the iOS Xcode project directly.

Ahh well, thanks for the chat though!

[wispy bronze]

Some parts of my textures appear to be pink only in the build. What could be causing this?

[sleek eagle]

Are you using urp or hdrp? @wispy bronze

If so, check the materials that appear pink

[nova imp]

Android Resolver resolves dependencies.
My question is how I can add some constraints and exclude some dependencies
For example market specific dependencies (Native, GooglePlay, etc.).
For each market, it should only include that market dependencies and exclude others
I have added asmdef files with preprocessor for each market. It is OK for market folders but android resolver generates aar files in Plugins/Android folder

[wispy bronze]

I am using URP. The shaders I use are the Baked Shader for static objects and Simple Lit for dynamic objects. The problem only occurs with the static objects. Please notice! Whole objects aren't pink, only parts of them, even though they are using one shader.

[wispy bronze]

^^

[sleek eagle]

Hmm weird. This doesn't happen if you don't tick the static box? (Light bakes still will be used)
And did you update unity and urp to the latest already?

[lost zodiac]

Other than that it really depends on the content you make. Check out guides on the profiler and profile with a development build on your phone

When you guys save player progress to the cloud, what do you use? Locally i save a binary file, but google play services does not allow binary files?

[glossy sluice]

Hi, i can export my project but not even build but why? Im using imac

[stark quartz]

Hi! i'm building a game for Android. I installed the mediation package, but I had issues when building. Then I read this:

The Advertisement with Mediation package contains Unity’s own ad mediation solution, which is no longer being enhanced. You may still download and use until further notice, but we recommend using Unity LevelPlay for longer term support and improvements.``` 

What is the best way to implement ads right now and if it's not mediation, how can I remove mediation ?

[analog plover]

The notice seems quite clear

[rugged ivy]

Is there a way to get Unity's current focused View in android, for using as a reference in a .java plugin?

[stark quartz]

I'm trying to use ironSource and LevelPlay ads, but I can't manage to get it work. I get an "Unsupported platform" message in the editor, is it normal ? Also, should I enable the Ads in the services panel ?

[fringe sparrow]

do we have to use LevelPlay instead of the default packages that get generated when using Unity editor

Im finding that I can not build a aab, but when I remove "Advertisement Legacy", unity allows me to make an aab, which to me means that the issue is with that package

[spark zodiac]

Is there anyone who have used IAP before in unity? If yes, then can anyone tell me how to begin with IAP? Right now i heard that to include IAP in my project i need my game to be published in any of the store(google playstore, app store etc) first. I haven't published my game yet so can i still use IAP or do i need to publish it first?

[tired lily]

yes, typically ads only work on a device. I recommend you use an actual, physical device. Sometimes ad networks won't serve to emulators at all

[stark quartz]

I managed to get it work, thanks!

I'm not sure of the best way to load and show ads though

Is there a way to check if an ad is loaded ? I made an int that increases when onInterstitialAdReadyEvent is triggered

I also made this, but I don't want to have it load many ads in the background:

static void OnInterstitialAdLoadFailedEvent(IronSourceError ironSourceError)
    {
        instance.Invoke("LoadInterstitial", 30); // Load again in 30 seconds
    }```
What are the best practices ?

[tired lily]

I use a different mediator, but usually: start loading ads as soon as you can and use an exponential backoff in the case of an ad load failure

[stark quartz]

What's an exponential backoff ?

[lost zodiac]

THANK YOU

[tidal lily]

guys, we are trying to make a game based on writing the letters on the screen on mobile. We decided to create our own keybord input and take the words over there. But we dont know how to do it. Is there any different ways to make this system? Or who can help us?

[latent lantern]

Is there some way to look at the code of this file?
at PlayerBuildProgramLibrary.PlayerBuildProgramBase.SetupCopyPlugins() in /Users/bokken/build/output/unity/unity/Editor/IncrementalBuildPipeline/PlayerBuildProgramLibrary/PlayerBuildProgramBase.cs:line 537

I assume not because it appears to be in some kind of virtual directory

[glossy sluice]

Hello i want to change the name of my url folder on my imac. Do i will lose my projects? Every path starts with user/pascal/… and i want to change to user/pas/

[latent lantern]

This doesn't seem to have much to do with a mobile platform, but you can

1. click the three dots to the right of the project
2. Remove project from list
3. Change your filesystem however you like
4. In Unity Hub, click The down Arrow to the right of Open
5. Add project from disk

[glossy sluice]

Thank you. Ok. So, if i will change now the url it will change my project url to the new Name of it. So all my projects will not break?

[glossy sluice]

Another question comes up. Who else knows the answer?

Thanks in advance

[calm wadi]

heyo people

has anyone here ever published a app to google play store

[sleek eagle]

Yep (didn't have success tho)
Just ask your questions

[calm wadi]

I need help getting a build with all the correct setup

64 bit ect

[sleek eagle]

Make sure the android module + 2 submodules are installed in unity hub

In player settings - other enable il2cpp and enable 64 bit

[sleek eagle]

https://youtu.be/7S6QQKtvNo8

Here you can see some of my settings

It's for quest 2, but that also runs android

[calm wadi]

i did all that and it just kinda broke my unity

[sleek eagle]

Define broke

[glossy sluice]

Hey it doenst work?

[glossy sluice]

Then do you know the answer right here?

[calm wadi]

alot

[fringe sparrow]

has anyone used IronSource mediation package and sent IronSource an email with their bank info?

[last stump]

Hey I cant build a apk please help! I get many errors but I think the important one is this > Configure project :launcher WARNING: The option setting 'android.enableR8=false' is deprecated. It will be removed in version 5.0 of the Android Gradle plugin. You will no longer be able to disable R8

[fringe sparrow]

has anyone sent bank info to IronSource to get their account approved to use LevelPlay?

[glossy sluice]

can anyone help me understand why my game is doing this, every time i click a button, such as menu or play it takes a second or two to go to the next scene, its for a mobile game.

[fringe sparrow]

when you change scenes it creates the stuff from the next scene and destroyed stuff from the scene you are no longer in

the bigger the second scene is, the longer the delay that you might get

Not sure why for you its 2 seconds exactly, but thats what happens when you change scenes

[sleek eagle]

If you aren't specific I am not helping. If I tell you my project broke, how are you supposed to know what is going on

[calm wadi]

@sleek eagle sorry i was at collage

very stressful day

[restive zinc]

I've heard in a Unity profiling talk that mobile devices vsync is forced on by hardware. Is this still true?

[analog plover]

Mobile hardware hasn't changed in 2 years in that regard, no

[rotund knot]

I still have doubts about that.

[restive zinc]

Yeah same. I can't find any info on the topic

[simple berry]

Trouble Building on Xcode for IOS

[keen crane]

Probably a common question, scene is laggy in remote 5 but not on my pc, is this just a remote 5 thing l

[sleek eagle]

Remote is streaming, so not running on the actual device.
Don't think anyone can give more support then check your wifi or usb

The solution: build natively to test performance on mobile

[keen crane]

Thanks, I’m fine with the low fps as long as it’s not the final product

[warm mural]

Hii,
I'm mobile developer and my project has a 3d viewer made with unity. I'm interested in cross-platform.
Is there any multiplatform sdk/framework (Flutter, Xamarin, React Native, Ionic... ) that can integrate the viewer seamlessly ?

The app would have the viewer embedded on it, it's not just the viewer, also has other interfaces.

[sonic otter]

Uh React and Angular have plugins to embed Unity projects inside webgl builds

[north charm]

Hey i wanted to make my first android game switched to Android now my file is broken + my pc shutdown does anyone know why this happens?

Cant even open the game anymore :,((

For whatever reason when i start and chose windows as the current platform everything is normal

[sonic otter]

It bluescreens when you run emulated android?

[north charm]

its not a bluescrenn my pc instantly shutdown if u mean that

maybe its my hardware tho i had that a problem a few times in the past

but its happening everytime when i wanna swap to android in unity

[warm mural]

These options are better than Flutter?

[sacred creek]

Maybe remove and reinstall Unity. But besides that, heavy tasks can cause faulty hardware to stop working, so maybe thats another none software issue

[north charm]

i recently upgraded my cpu but im still waiting for my cpu fan i had issues with that obvi cus of the cpu tempature but that shouldnt happen instanly when i click on switch platform to android right?

[sacred creek]

when you switch platform, unity recompiles everything and checks if it should reimport assets, create asset variants for the target platform and what not. So thats some load there, but it could also be a faulty harddrive or RAM or just a bugged out unity. try another version AFTER backing up somewhere.

[north charm]

ok thank you

[vague iris]

hey guys, I am trying to port an iOS Project to TVOs. I just got the latest Apple TV but unfortunately it lacks an USB-C port. So how are we supposed to test our games without being able to connect it to our dev machines?

[fallen compass]

Unrelated to your question - did you get the one with the ethernet port?

Probably the only way now is to use Testflight

[vague iris]

yes I have the ethernetport version.

[restive zinc]

Is there any alternatives to bloom in URP? The bloom in the volume profile so expensive for mobile

[ember jetty]

Only alternative is bake lightmaps after setting material to emission with high intensity

[vague pilot]

How would I check if the player is in Landscape or Portrait mode in my game I see the auto rotation in unity but it doesn't seem to scale correctly? (Yes I do anchor everything)

[crisp plaza]

Hey guys, can you please give me your point of view on my game : https://youtube.com/shorts/DK73xFZ4FlM?feature=share

Maybe some improvements ideas ?

I want to make it level based. Your goal is to control the rocket and take a package from Point A to Point B.

I thought about adding a timer for Speedrunners.
I'll surely add multiple Rocket Skins.
Also thiking about adding rockets / thrusters with different caracteristics (More Thrust, More stable, ...)
That's pretty much it 🙂

[void drift]

i want the user to select a profile photo. How can i have access to the device storage? i spent a few hours and found little to no helpfull information on how to achieve this 😦 Can someone give me a hint?

[tired lily]

assuming you're talking android, it would probably be best to create an implicit intent filter that has the user choose a photo, and get that data back

[brazen birch]

You probably want to put that in #archived-works-in-progress or something therein

[long sorrel]

does anyone know how to put mobile keyboard input with field text

I looked in unity documentation and I still don't know

[fringe sparrow]

when you are on the mobile build, and you click the field, the keyboard should pop up

[twin garden]

can anyone see why this would not be working

is there an updated way to do it with input actions or something?

[sleek eagle]

Do you mean you use the new input system?

[twin garden]

I have it set to both. But this code is not doing anything

[analog plover]

Put a Debug.Log inside and outside every if block so that you know which part fails

[fair ermine]

I have to squueeze every fps possible out of a simple app just shows a single unlit texture on android, what do I turn off?

[twin garden]

I can't see the console on mobile

[analog plover]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/android-debugging-on-an-android-device.html

[fair ermine]

any way to throttle the framerate depending on the soc temperature?

[sleek eagle]

Check the adaptive performance package

[sleek eagle]

A lot
Maybe this can already help: https://youtu.be/7S6QQKtvNo8

Other than that not many people can help you without project access or specific questions

[fair ermine]

Thank you that hopefully helps, I was using mono,
To be more specific I'm using an S21 FE to build a video player for AR Glasses. The SDK uses unity and there seems to be some thermal throttling behaviour going on with this samsung, where at around soc temp 39-40, all unity performance, in AR or not comes to a crawl, and this includes even a minimal scene with no objects, 1 camera, and no light source. I think the phone has a design issue, I'm not in the USA so the phone was provided with the exynos 2100 cpu instead of the more reliable cooler running snapdragon. So americans I'm asking for help have no Idea what I'm talking about mostly

[sleek eagle]

IL2CPP helps a ton yeah, especially if you also enable arm64

[fair ermine]

Ok so just used the app for about 30 minutes, 20 minutes longer than ever before, happy to say that vide and its suggestion to use IL2CPP has solved my problem, a problem I've had for days making me feel sick and sad about how much I spent on the hardware to start this project. Thank you!

[glossy sluice]

Hi there, do you know tosolve this problem?

[warm mural]

I have no idea, sorry, I'm not familiar with Unity, just app development

[queen lily]

Hello recently I have been faced with this error. But the cause is extremely unusual and I can't find anything online even openai.chat came up empty on this one

But for this error to appear all I have to do is rename my company in the settings. So basically when ever the packname is changed from com.defaultcompany.<appname>

First thoughts would ofc be bad format package name or an already used package name.

But nope I have tried over 20 combinations and not even one letter from defaultCompany can be changed without this error

I can make it build with custom packname but only when built in ic2? Instead of mono ( I may not have the right names but you should know what I mean) with arm64x

So this results in successful build but the apk can't be installed on a android as it gives error package name already in use. ( Doesn't matter what package name I use)

But simply renaming it back to com.defaultcompany.<game> it works fine.

I backedup my source file and then I took all my assets back to the last successful build. But same issue is present.

So I'm starting to believe it is a bug or a error in a installed/preinstalled package.

Even tried manually renaming all com.defaultcomany.<game>

I'm using 2021.3.15, and honestly I'm out of troubleshooting ideas.

And fyi if post the full logs but honestly the logs are even more useless and the build failure popup has most details. In the log

I also tried openai.chat to diagnosis didn't help.

( Although I will add I'd advise more people use openais new chat bot. It is actually extremely good at finding bugs from logs. And also for general information. I wouldn't trust it 100% but in the two days I used it it's actually helped me diagnosis alot of problems )

Oh I'll also add this issue is there even on new projects, even after a complete reinstall of engine and hub

[twin garden]

omg. i've been working on my game for like 2 years and have never used this lol

[twin garden]

so this works now but it's too fast

i want the back button to open the menu and then if its pushed again it will exit the game

i think it's staying down for a sec because the way i'm detecting if the 2nd time it's pushed is if the menu is active

oh do i just flip the If statements lol

[analog plover]

have you also never used else if

[edgy leaf]

Hey, guys
Does anyone know the best way to save data when Android app is closed?
I'm saving data to Google Play Games. OnDestroy and OnApplicationQuit don't workÏ and OnApplicationPause is not reliable

[analog plover]

Those are the methods that can be used. If someone force closes the app then you can't do anything because the app isn't running anymore

[edgy leaf]

Not force close, regular app close

The thing is the method that is in OnApplicationQuit has a callback method, maybe that's the problem?

[analog plover]

You have a limited time to do anything in OnApplicationQuit

[edgy leaf]

Then what's the most reliable way?

[analog plover]

OnApplicationQuit

there is no other way

[edgy leaf]

I doubt it's the best way, but how long do I have in OnApplicationQuit then?

[analog plover]

Depends on the OS

might want to use OnApplicationFocus event instead

[edgy leaf]

I'll give it a try

[halcyon stump]

Is anyone else having an issue with Unity finding their app-ads.txt file? I'm using a squarespace website so I can't put the file in the root directory meaning I have to use a redirect. This was working until sometime in the past month. Now unity says they don't allow redirects for the app-ads link.

[rotund knot]

OnApplicationFocus() works quite well

[pure zenith]

This all started because banner ads would not show up on my phone, but they do in the editor

I updated the ad package and now it won't build

I also have a ton of "Mapping new ns" messages

[sleek eagle]

Which unity version?
Do you use custom android manifest files or others?
Did you change any settings regarding android?
Does it happen in a blank project?

[pure zenith]

Unity 2020.3.42f1, and I have changed the SDK to 31

I have not tried it in a blank project

This was the error I was getting when the app would build and run on my phone

I have no idea what broke

I have every gradle file open and I do not see "android.useAndroidX"

I have resolved my build issue

Some how the "Use custom gradle template" was checked

But now I am back to the point of the ads not loading on my phone

https://answers.unity.com/questions/1915834/advertisementbannersetposition-throwing-exception.html Tried down grading the ad package as suggested here, but back to getting the gradle build error

After noticing there was an update to 4.4.1, I tried that version and I got the same gradle build error

Seems that any time I change the package I get the gradle build error. I just tried changing it back to 4.3.0 and the error showed up again

[pure zenith]

"> Configure project :launcher
WARNING: The option setting 'android.enableR8=false' is deprecated.
It will be removed in version 5.0 of the Android Gradle plugin.
You will no longer be able to disable R8"

I have tried removing android.enableR8=false from the file, but it keeps adding back when I try building and running

So I deleted resolved dependencies and that has fixed my problem

Well now I get this error "Warn UnityAds com.unity3d.services.core.connectivity.ConnectivityMonitor.initConnectionStatus() (line:109) :: Unity Ads was not able to get current network type due to missing permission"

Tried following this, but I don't have a "build settings" in player options

[pure zenith]

I found the setting, but it's still not working

[pure zenith]

Found something that said to check the manifest. It appears that the proper permissions are in there. Yet it still says the proper permission don't exist

[coral fable]

I cant figure out why DoRenderLoop_Internal() is taking up so much time

even on a very basic scene, i am getting subpar performance

[sleek eagle]

You can expand it. Probably something graphics related or a GPU bottleneck @coral fable

[limber ruin]

HI,
I have one query. I build one APK from Unity and that size is more than 5.5 GB so I used OBB option. but OBB max size is 4 GB. so how can I Build for Quest 2?

[fallen compass]

look at the editor log after doing a build, see why it's so big.. remove/ optimise things

[sleek eagle]

@limber ruin see above. I'd say try to get that size down.
If not possible, try splitting into multiple obb files maybe

[limber ruin]

Size reduce not possible. so how can i make multiple OBB? I used Split Binary option from project settings.

[lime violet]

Im trying to build an android app bundle but keep getting these errors.

it always fails on the gradle build

[analog plover]

Read/show the third error

[lime violet]

i think this is the most important part

its just warnings after

Unity version is 2021.1.23f1 btw

[quartz kernel]

Follow this video and see if you can get it working https://youtu.be/3Qay9h14swM

I've seen some people say that updating the SDK when prompted starts working if they run Unity as admin

[lime violet]

hmm ran it as administrator and tried the left "Update Android SDK" option but still getting this

the errors i sent before came from the "use highest installed" option btw

[quartz kernel]

Right so try following the video

[lime violet]

thats a different error though but executing that command in cmd says it doesnt recognize the command

he's also not building an app bundle

[quartz kernel]

Are you building for play store?

[lime violet]

yeah,

with the google play console

[quartz kernel]

Then you're gonna need API 31 not just 29

[lime violet]

i tried it with 32

but 31 or 32 gives same message

[quartz kernel]

I'm trying to find the link to what got it working fo rme yesterday

[lime violet]

you had the same thing?

[quartz kernel]

Yep haha

This one https://forum.unity.com/threads/not-able-to-publish-on-google-play-android-exported-android-12.1224948/#post-8639844

So save this as SDKD.cmd, insert your unity version, and run it

[lime violet]

ehh not the best with cmd stuff, how do you make/run the SDKD.cmd

[quartz kernel]

I just double clicked it

[lime violet]

but how'd you make the sdkd.cmd?

[lime violet]

it doesnt run in cmd for me, just opens in notepad

[quartz kernel]

Right click in explorer > New > Text file > Set the name to SDK.cmd

You can right click and run the file too

[lime violet]

mm doesnt do it for me, just keeps opening in notepad. I cant choose cmd when saving, only .txt

[quartz kernel]

You can also open command prompt as administrator and paste the code in

[lime violet]

still getting this after running commands

[lime violet]

but it does know all these

[trail swift]

Does anyone know where / and how to check performance memory guides on mobile?

for example this is my snapshot

is 112 mb too much?

[rugged bough]

I noticed, that when i look down on my terrain, i have 50 fps, and if i look just above it i get lots more even though the trees etc is in view. Seems that the terrrain itself consumes alot fps. I use Gaia Terrain with the low poly setting

[quartz kernel]

To my knowledge terrains aren't usually used on mobile. You would use a mesh instead

[crystal coral]

does anybody have a background on using AdMob with mediation? I dont seem to see Mediation anywhere in my package manager...

[rugged bough]

Hmm okay

My problem is not the amount of tris im sure, its something else with the terrain

Microsplat has helped me before but it messed with my textures

Ill research it

[sleek eagle]

Most likely heavy shaders and/or many draw calls. Both will be hard on mobile hardware due to the GPU being a tiled gpu

Not sure the exact details of terrain, but I know those are usually the issues on mobile and I know terrain on mobile sucks

[sleek eagle]

What do you mean? If you don't have an issue it is fine. If you have issues, then explain the actual issue.
That memory usage seems fine to me, but there is a lot more than just memory usage

[rugged bough]

Yeah, ive optimized my drawcalls alot for my nature, using same material etc. But i just notice while testing on mobile now that i get like 80 fps looking at the trees. But 51 fps just looking down on the ground, like just under my player only

Not even looking at a horizon of terrain hehe

[sleek eagle]

Maybe look for terrain to mesh tools online and LOD the meshes?

Can be a pain for the trees etc if you have them painted onto the terrain tho. Not sure if there are any tools for that yet

[rugged bough]

Lod the terrain mesh?

Right now my terrain is one piece

🙂

[sleek eagle]

Terrain already has some sort of LOD system, but if you bake it into a mesh it won't since, well, it's a mesh. You can cut up the mesh and then LOD it to get some performance back of the increase in tris

[rugged bough]

My game runs okay at 55-60fps but i notice sometimes 50 etc and i think that terrain is whats stopping me from going 60+

Ah i see

Like a grid yeah

[sleek eagle]

Yepyep

[rugged bough]

I'll see what i can do, i know that microsplat gives terrain better preformance

But again, thought i could use without

Since i have the Gaia terrain asset

Thanks for inputs mate

[sleek eagle]

No problem! Good luck

[ember bear]

After updating from 2022.1 to 2022.2, I can no longer archive my build for iOS. Any ideas?

[lime violet]

Just to let you know, it's fixed. Just used a new Unity version and had to add 2 lines to gradle.properties

thanks for your help yesterday

[quartz kernel]

Fair enough, I didn't have the option to upgrade so I needed to fix my existing version. Great that you got it working :)

[lilac herald]

@lime violet i see you have the same issue as me, do you know how to fix this?

[brazen birch]

Click on the last error I think it is and see what the 4 errors are in the body of the console

All that says is Gradle failed to build the project. You need to look at the log item to determine why.

[brazen birch]

Keep going through the errors, you'll find one with specifics

[lilac herald]

i've tried everything

doesn't work

i've tried reinstalling unity

upgrading gradle

changing build settings

nothing works

nothing

i get different errors

not always this one

[brazen birch]

We haven't found the error yet, it's in one of the logs

[lilac herald]

and who even understands what this error says

which one this?

[brazen birch]

I don't think you understand what it is telling you. Unity is only showing that the building using Gradle failed. The reason it failed will be embedded in one of those error logs

[lilac herald]

how do i see the reason it failed then?

[brazen birch]

Unity doesn't really handle Gradle that well, and can't understand the errors from it very easily. So you need to look at the messages and find the one that shows you the error messages returned from Gradle

[lilac herald]

this one?

[brazen birch]

You need to go through each error to find the response from Gradle that says why it failed.

[brazen birch]

Yes

[lilac herald]

is it this?

ok

now what

[brazen birch]

This helps - it shows some missing build tools in Gradle...

com.android.tools.build:gradle.6.1.1

You need to install those. If you have a vanilla unity / built in Gradle install, it should self resolve that issue. But if you messed with the Gradle install, now you'll need to go into android studio and install the missing sdk manually

[lilac herald]

can you please explain me how to do that in detail

[brazen birch]

I can't, it depends on how your Gradle is now configured. There are a few different ways to resolve this and it depends on how things are currently installed, one though is to open Android Studio and install the tool version listed in the error message.

[lilac herald]

i have gradle installed through unity

[brazen birch]

The good news is now that we have the error, we know why the builds are failing.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72922400/gradle-build-failed-in-unityv-2021-2-14-gradle-6-1-1

And other folks have the same error.

There are a handful of ways to solve it. Manually install the missing SDK version to Gradle. Use a custom Android studio build with the right Gradle installed. Or use a different version of unity that should have a fresh Gradle without the issue.
