what can I do with Gradle build failed?

[fallen compass]

There's thousands of reasons as to why the gradle build will fail, you need to look at the stack trace.. parse it to see what the relevant info is and then google the one you've gotten

[violet warren]

thanks, i should probably try that

how to made the best all android device supported build on unity what is the best settings for that

[tired lily]

set min sdk to 22 and target to 31; don't use any third party dependencies that might require features that require api > 22

Hello can anyone explain please why google play is telling me that I cant publish a game because it was signed in debug mode?

[tired lily]

oh and the low end devices are truly potato-like, so super conservative on graphics and cpu use

[tired lily]

create a keystore with your own key. You can't upload a debug signed bundle

[glossy sluice]

Uhhhh

What do I have to create and how?

Hello. I would like to start making a very simple mobile app with Unity. At the moment I just want to paint a background with a button that adds figures. Any recommended tutorial or video about interfaces, buttons, or adjusting things to the size of the mobile?

I don't know if this is the right forum

thank u!

[glossy sluice]

You probably should just watch some tutorials that explain you the basics of unity, even if they don't explain exactly the part that you need.
After you learn the basics you can just search some tutorials that explain how to do exactly what you need.

What I did was firstly watching some tutorials that explain how to create a 2D platformer, and after that I already had the basics so I started making other games and when I didn't know how to do something I just searched for that exact thing on google

Hello here, I need some help with Android File.Exist method:

[ruby isle]

Hello!
I have a game for kids on the Play Console. Play Store remove my game due to policy violation(The target age groups you’ve selected are inaccurate. Make sure that you only select the appropriate age groups under 13 years old in your Target audience and content settings.). Now I'm trying to remove the age group 13-15 but Play console won't let me to do this.

I'm facing this error "You must remove the request for location permissions from your app if your target audience only includes children under 13" when I'm trying to remove the age group 13-15. I check the app package explorer on the Play Console and there is no permission for location.

Please let know how I can fix this issue.

I also added these lines in android manifest files but not working <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" tools:node="remove" /> <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" tools:node="remove"/>

I also remove the Google Admob ads SDK but issue remains the same

Does OnPointer functions not work with mobile game objects? In the editor I can click just fine but not on my Android build.

Wow, this was frustrating me all afternoon...aparently this is bugged on Android. You have to use OnPointerDown instead of OnPointerClick. 😤

[velvet dock]

post that in #📲┃ui-ux and they can probably help. You'll need to post more than just that error though, since the error pretty much tells you that you have an EndLayoutGroup without a BeginLayoutGroup...

[neat cave]

hello there!
I'm writing this code, where when you push a button, nightManager.gyro_enabled is set to true
When that happens, it should activate gyroscope camera controls (the variable object to rotate is itself)
That worked
the thing is that I then wanted to add the function so that when you press the button, your camera will start pointing at the default camera rotation (0, 180, 0).
What i tried to do is calculate the offset on the very first frame the gyroscope is turned on and then keep that offset to add it to future rotations

It kinda works, the thing is that I think I'm not having into account the fact that the ofset will rotate the camera weirdly if it is offseted. Like when you rotate a cube, the face poiinting to the side (the offseted camera) will "roll" while the face pointing forward (the gyroscope) will start facing up

I think that is the problem butt i don't know how to do it

Can any of you help me??

using UnityEngine;

public class CameraRotation : MonoBehaviour
{
   private Gyroscope gyro;
   private bool gyro_on;
   public NightManager nightmanager;
   public GameObject ObjectToRotate;

   private float offsety;
   private float offsetx;
   private float offsetz;
   private Vector3 offsetEuler;
   private Quaternion modifiedrotation;

   private Quaternion rot;

   private void Update() 
   {
     gyro_on = nightmanager.gyro_enabled;
     if(SystemInfo.supportsGyroscope && gyro_on)
     {
        gyro = Input.gyro;
        gyro.enabled = true;

        
        rot = new Quaternion (0, 0, 1, 0);
     }
     else if (!gyro_on)
     {
        gyro.enabled = false;

     }

     if (gyro_on)
     {

        {
             Quaternion rotation = gyro.attitude * rot;
             offsety = rotation.eulerAngles.y * -1 + 180;
             offsetx = rotation.eulerAngles.x * -1;
             offsetz = rotation.eulerAngles.z * -1;

             offsetEuler = rotation.eulerAngles + new Vector3(offsetx, offsety, offsetz);

how to run unity games on mobile directly

@lavish burrow

[halcyon summit]

Hello guys!
I need some information. I'm starting the test phases to publish a game on Google Play.
I am able to Run and Build using my device (Samsung Note 10)
But I can't download the test version from Play Store. It says that my device is not compatible.
I already checked the Android version and it is supported. Any clues?

[halcyon summit]

For android you can:

• Enable the developer mode on your device
• Connect your device via USB
• On Unity, go to: FIle > Build Settings
• Make sure you have the correct Platform selected
• Click on Build and Run button
  NOTE: Some additional settings may be required (Player Settings button - Player tab)

[steady cloud]

cannot build using gyro

and cannot build on pc

XD

[tired lily]

what version is your device and what did you set min sdk to?

I get this error when building but there is no package.xml in those directories

[halcyon summit]

Min API Level: Android 5.1
Device: Android 12

[tired lily]

so you set min api to 22 and target to 31+?

[halcyon summit]

target is automatic

[tired lily]

and it says your device isn't compatible, or that the app failed to install?

[halcyon summit]

When I click on the Download link, it redirects me to Play Store.
Then I have the message: "This item is not available"
When I click on the App details arrow, below, I can see that my device is not caompatible

[tired lily]

are you able to install a local build onto your device?

[halcyon summit]

yes, I can run the apk file

[tired lily]

an incorrect min sdk is usually the problem, did you change it recently? maybe your internal test track build isn't the one you think it is

[halcyon summit]

No, this is the first time I'm setting it up and it was never changed since I assigned the value at the first time.

It worked on 2 other devices (I don't know their versions)

[halcyon summit]

My sister was able to download it using another device in the same Android version... idk

I got this Error Message

I'm using a separate SDK. Not using Add Module in Unity Hub.
Because when i use Download Unity in Hub, it cause Installation failed.
So I did a direct download in official web. and Also, module addition does not appear unless downloaded through the hub.
that is why i use a separate SDK.

also I tried https://discussions.unity.com/t/native-error-access-denied-when-building-the-project/225034 this already but, It dosen't work.
I hope you understand my lack of English and PLZ HELP ME.

Does anyone here use Unity LevelPlay

[sick magnet]

I am trying to make an Android build for my project, however it appears I am missing the necessary JDK, SDK, NDK files to build the project. I am working on an LTS release so its not as easy as adding them from the Unity Hub. How would I go about fixing this? Is there an option to add these when Installing the editor version, If I re-download and install this version again will that cause errors if i dont first uninstall?

[halcyon summit]

@sick magnet you can find it here:

[sick magnet]

“I’m working on an LTS release so it’s not as easy as adding them from the Unity Hub”

[halcyon summit]

In that case you can download and install JDK, SDK and NDK manually. Then link the paths to your project.
You can install in a different directiry than the current version. In that case you won't have conflicts and you'll be able to choose which one you want to use for each project
I had to do that because one of them was raising an error stating that the tool was "Readonly"

Depends on how they are made. Softbodies can be extremely resource intensive, and mobile hardware can be very lacking.

Google unity profiler

Hello. Can I use ad mediation without making ironsource account? And is there a simple solution to setup the entire thing? Setuping ads always takes a long time

[zealous cypress]

Hey, I've built a minimal game for Android, when I try to build it, it results in around 50MB of APK.
When installing on device and checking the game size through Android settings, I see that the entire game is around 200MB...
I searched everywhere through my Assets folder and everything in it doesn't even reach 200MB, even with plugins and such.

Any idea what could happen?
(I cleaned and compressed every asset that I can, none of my code create local files, and I tried using Android Studio to analyze my APK and still got around 50MB of data, not sure where the extra 150 is coming from)

[woeful sentinel]

Yes, you can use google admob and mediation with your ad partner. If you want to use iron source ad service then you require an iron source account.

More :- https://developers.google.com/admob/unity/mediation/unity

[fallen compass]

@woeful sentinel this isn't a channel to advertise your stuff. Delete it and post it in #502171626805133312

[lusty star]

should I not be using Unity Mediation?

it seems like the only ad integration method left is by using ironsource and levelplay but I really don't want to go through the verification process on ironsource

There used to be other ad mediation assets on the store, I haven't looked in years though

How can I make sure my game stays the same on all mobile resolutions. Its works fine most phone devices but if someone was to play it on the ipad, it cuts too much from the left and right side. My game is a endless side scroller. I know there are anchor stuff I can do which works fine for ui but how can I made sure all game objects also fit in all screens

[brazen quest]

I too never have been able to do that myself ever. Would be great to know!

[wintry echo]

Have you set your UI Scale Mode to " Scale with resolution size" ?

Never done that but maybe try to change the camera's FOV based on the resolution ?

Hey everyone, I'm trying to add google play auth provider on gaming services, but I can't find the client secret that unity is asking. Does anyone know where I could find it?

I believe that its in google cloud, but there is only client id there, not a client secret

[tired lily]

you probably did the obvious thing and created an Android OAuth client ID. Create a web application credential instead

[modest flint]

Really wish there was a tutorial on this, everything that I find uses singInAnonymously

[crisp prism]

hey folks, have you also experienced that interstitial ads (test mode / Unity Advertising API ) are displayed in the editor but not on physical mobile phones (android)

[tired lily]

the editor ads are not real, so maybe you have something wrong in your configuration or something important is being stripped out by proguard

look for any issues with logcat

Using 2021.3.27f1 and an up to date version of Android NDK according to this and yet it says I am missing the recommended version of Android NDK installed BY UNITY HUB.

[honest plume]

guys

after building they r showing me this error

even tho i have it downloaded it here

[honest plume]

problem fixed**

[late drift]

Ofc

[late drift]

How?!?!?!

[honest plume]

i had to abandone the NDK that comes with unity and the one from the website

and download it from the sdk manager in android studio

why? i don't know , but ot's working

[late drift]

The latest version right?

[sleek eagle]

Then you might have set the target API higher than unity support

[honest plume]

yes

[late drift]

I never touched that

[mint ingot]

Hey guys how can I test my game on my phone without having to build everytime from android studio..

[fallen compass]

You don't ever have to use Android Studio

[mint ingot]

How should I build then

[fallen compass]

You should just build an apk from Unity, or use 'Build and Run'

[mint ingot]

Okay noted, How can I run editor play mode on my device though?

[neon thicket]

Unity Remote used to be a way to view the game on your phone (it wasn't representative of the actual gameplay/performance though). Whether that app works for your phone depends on how old your phone is.

Otherwise, your only real option is to make a build.

[storm stream]

Hello,
I recently decided to perform a factory reset on my pc but before that I moved my unity game files from my pc to a hard drive. Fast forwards after the factory reset, I realise that I backed up a 1 year old version of my game and not the current one.
The work I did in this one year is quite significant and not worth doing again from the start so I started finding out ways to retrieve my assets.
I currently have retrieved the game scenes and all of the game sprites, but I have struggled a lot with retrieving the code files.

I have currently in my possesion:
an .apk file of the latest version of the game
an Android App Bundle (.aab) file of the latest version
and that 1 year old Unity project file

what do you mean?

no

anyway

[storm stream]

Is there a way to retrieve my c# files from these?

[velvet dock]

You might be able to get lucky and download some file recovery software and see if any of those previous directories/files are still on the disk somewhere

[mint ingot]

Hey guys, my game looks like it's very laggy on my phone, I tried doing everything my code is efficient and I have like 20 drawcalls from ui, I'm thinking there's probably something wrong with my build settings or some gotcha idk about.. Can anyone point me to some direction? I've gotten very annoyed by this, on my pc obv its on 900fps and on my phone it looks like 30

[storm stream]

do you have any to suggest?

[fallen compass]

Talk about decompiling builds isn’t allowed on this discord.

[storm stream]

Oh sorry

well I am not trying to steal game code as it is my game so I didn't think it would be a problem

[fallen compass]

Right, but everyone says that it’s “their” game. So it’s a blanket ban

[storm stream]

Also I wasn't just asking about decompiling

[fallen compass]

And I only replied and commented on the De compilation bit.

[storm stream]

Recovering was an option I hadn't thought until Kuolema brought it up

[fallen compass]

Let this be a huge lesson for you.. learn version control 🙂

anyone?

[velvet dock]

https://www.handyrecovery.com/best-data-recovery-apps.html
so maybe Disk Drill or Wondershare Recoverit might work since you just want the C# files which should keep you in the "Free" price range? Let us know if anything works though

started a new project in 2023 version of unity and builds take five billion years to make I barely got anything in it but a "quick" look at it is now taking up more than double of time im used to whats up? I dont remember to ever see this particular section

[coral rain]

Game crash after adding admob, anyone got a solution ?

it just dosent open at all

[keen tulip]

Can you explain in detail how the game crashes?

[coral rain]

i try to open the game

black screen for less than a second

and it exits

sometimes it shows "nekodrift16 keeps not responding"

in the editor everything is great

[keen tulip]

is it on the phone

[keen tulip]

Have you tried on different phone?

[coral rain]

yes

still same issue

[keen tulip]

unity version ?

[coral rain]

2021.3.26F1

[coral rain]

the game worked before i did add admob

same unity version

[keen tulip]

do you check the internet before showing ads

[coral rain]

no

the first scene supposed to load dont even have ads

[keen tulip]

Are you doing this for the first time? there must be a bug that needs detailed investigation

[coral rain]

with this unity version, yes first time bulding a game

with admob plugin in it

i also have discord gamesdk in the project (for pc version) can it be the reason ?

[keen tulip]

Like I said, I don't know, it requires a detailed investigation.

[tired lily]

view logs with logcat. Confirm that you set your app id for admob. Ads working in the editor means nothing, they don't use the mobile sdks at all

[deep belfry]

Help anyone?

[tired lily]

are you able to just go to the links and access them? I checked a couple and they exist, so maybe your network or machine is blocking them

[deep belfry]

so either my network/machine is stopping unity from downloading them?

[limber jungle]

Okay this issue is getting wierd now. Google Play Store is now even rejecting a new unity project as an update, for it's sending identifiers? Anyone has this issue before?

[tired lily]

did you try and download them yourself? I told you they definitely exist, so that's what it looks like

[deep belfry]

do i download them from the links or using the unity installer?

[tired lily]

what? literally go to one of the urls your error mentions and see if it's accessible. What does the unity installer have to do with it?

[halcyon summit]

I had my app working fine with UnityADS. One week ago it stopped working.
I tried to update my app to use UnityADS through IronSource integration.
The integration seems to be good and everything is connected on IS panel.
But I'm receiving the following error:

unity-script: IronSource.Agent.isRewardedVideoAvailable - False

Any suggestions?

[deep belfry]

i can download from them,but do i have to download them all manually? and even so,where do i put them?

[tired lily]

the only purpose of downloading them was to check if they were blocked by your network. Did you try rebuilding, and do you get the same error?

your build errors are claiming they can't be found

[deep belfry]

weird,now i can't install them,it says 403 forbidden

well i can install some of them

[deep belfry]

well now it builds fine

weird

Hello, I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with 'Colliding Atttributes' in Unity Android Builds?

Its causing a fair bit of problems on my end, two conflicting attributes from two plugins that use the value FileBrowser. They are both third party so I cannot edit their code sadly, just the Android Manifest. I have been having issues doing that successfully.

I use External Dependency Manager for Unity and Google App Bundle Builder

Even if you dont have an answer, any experience you have had on this one may be helpful 🙂 Thanks yall

I'm migrating from the old unity mediation to the new levelplay on ironsource. I'm being told to set up SDK netwroks on ironsource to match what I have in Unity Mediation. Unity mediation has separate game IDs for anroid and ios. Ironsource only seems to allow 1 Unity mediation. So should I just pick either game ID and run with it?

Also all the ironsource documentaiton about where to find the data you need to enter is completely wrong

it's using the old version of the unity dashboard

Testing on mobile IOS and this debug menu showed up on top. I think because of the warning it's presenting but how would I close out of this menu or open it?

cause it's all touch I don't know how to close it

[trail ruin]

it says this mann idk

[rain leaf]

you need to increase the versioncode and rebuild the apk/aab
or you can also 'promote' from your previous release. Like if your current release is internal test, you can promote to closed beta release (iirc, been a while since I opened developer console)

[trail ruin]

like the same error pops up in the internal test as well

can i share my screen wit u real quick ill take like 2 mins

[kindred nexus]

Why is my screenToWorldPos not working properly?? https://hatebin.com/pqlauspleg

my project is in 3D because I want some depth and my script is just supposed to spawn a sprite mask where the player touches the screen.

But for some reason they just spawn in a fixed position instead of the touch world position

no one can still solve this problem why? 😭 cant i just throw money at the problem

Hey everyone

I'm currently tryin to build my project for mobile (worked fine until I configured IronSource and Ads Mediation to add ads support in my game)

Now everytime I try to build, I get this Gradle Build Error

It's driving me insane

[void quartz]

have you downloaded NDK?

[pale zealot]

Yup

It was a strange bug with IronSource package

I deleted the package and reimported it in Unity and it worked

Kind of a pain... Why IronSource...

[void quartz]

does it work now?

you solved it?

[pale zealot]

Yep

But it's really strange

[plain jackal]

are there any guides on making a game with a pedometer? youtube seems to be lacking on the topic of using step counters in unity

i see there's a StepCounter class, but not really sure what im supposed to do with this https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.inputsystem@1.0/api/UnityEngine.InputSystem.StepCounter.html

[timber crown]

I've had issues with gradle with my latest Android builds. I can fix the issue by adding the following to the 3 build.gradle files my project has (under Gradle\unityLibrary)

    resolutionStrategy {
        force 'androidx.core:core-ktx:1.6.0'
    }
}```

However all 3 files change with each build and I lose this modification. So I assume I have to add it to a template file. Which template file should I add this to (as there seems to be a few) and how should I format it?

[true hawk]

I have recently tried to add IronSource packaga to my mobile game project for some ads and after 3 hours of debugging I´ve come to the conclusion if I install UnityAds (which is essential for ads) my game stops being able to be compiled into APK and I have no idea how to fix this or why is it happening

if i dont install UnityAds I am able to compile my game but it won´t show me any ads

[hollow sluice]

Any ideas why my notifications (using Unity Notifications) works only when the game is open but do not when the game is closed? (Android)? Also noticed that it is not an issue when builded to .APK instead to .OBB for Google Play Store

[timber crown]

I've completed my migration to LevelPlay but even in the IronSource demo scene, I get "unsupported platform" when testing ads. I'm on the Android platform in the editor, it's obvious the ads aren't triggering in my game. There's nothing in the documentation offering a way to debug this and the unsupported platform error has literally no other information available to debug. What should I do?

[tired lily]

did you build to a device and test? Ads in the editor are faked in all cases that I've seen, so my expectation is that they didn't bother with the fake stuff and just throw unsupported

[timber crown]

I looked into it and the answer is Unity hasn't actually made LevelPlay ads work in editor yet

They said in december they wanted to get it working and here we are and it still doesn't work

I read a thread about LevelPlay and now I'm just going back to normal unity ad mediation

It sounds like levelplay is a trash fire

[tired lily]

no ads work in the editor, they would be faked at best

[timber crown]

(and for the record, no, after building and applying the apk, ads simply did not trigger)

In normal unity ad mediation yes the ads can be faked in editor, but LevelPlay cannot

Even in test mode it would give the unsupported platform error

TBH I'm in too delicate of a financial situation to risk making this transition without better testing methodology and documentation. I've found multiple instances of outdated documention on both Unity and IronSource's side and people reporting huge losses to ecm on LevelPlay. For something that's been supported since January, this is too amateurly developed for me to deal with.

[tired lily]

well I don't really blame them for not bothering with editor test ads, because the behavior is going to be fundamentally different than on device anyways. I think you prioritized the wrong thing here, and you should have been looking at why the ads on device weren't working

but I agree with you on the amateur part, that's definitely Unity's jam

[timber crown]

Debugging on a device is an extremely bothersome thing to do compared to debugging via the editor

I'm using the new knowledge of how bad the project's built to take the out and not bother :)

I'm having an issue with canvas...
I already tried a lot of different ways to make it work, but I couldn't
If you check img1.jpeg, I have a gameobject with 100 offset from top and bottom
If you check img2.jpeg, I have another gameobject with offset 250 from top and 0 from bottom.. which was supposed to add a 250 margin from top only.
In my editor it looks perfect, however, when building and running on mobile, it looks wonky (check mobile.jpeg)

I also tried different canvas scales. None of them helped me... I just can't make it work..
Any ideas? Articles or videos indications?

this is what software development is like. be brave. i already looked around for you

i googled "you are missing the recommended ndk unity 2021.3.27"

Hello guys!
I have a problem in Unity C#, Android. When I want to play video that is stored somewhere in my phone, Unity says that video player is playing, but I don't see video playing, it is just blank screen.
When I run my project in editor, everything works fine, the problem arises when I build it to my phone.

Another interesting thing is that when I try to load and run my video through Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie(videoLocation); it works fine in build but not in editor. (I really need the video player functionality, so I don't use handheld)

I don't have any logs or anything, Unity just thinks that I see the video.

My setup is like the one described here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7iXEZGx2Mc&ab_channel=JimmyVegas

This is the piece of code that actually runs the videoPlayer:

videoPlayer.source = VideoSource.Url;
videoPlayer.url = videoLocation;
videoPlayer.Play(); //works in editor but not in build
// Handheld.PlayFullScreenMovie(videoLocation); //this works in build but not in editor

Anyone has idea?

hi when i build with cli tools , mobile services like firebase,amplitude didnt include the apk. Why ? can i do something else for mobile services. When i build within editor there is no problem but in cli build there is problem.

[plain jackal]

im in the early stages of working on a mobile game and pretty new to the android platform. was following a tutorial about setting up saves and they use DataSource.ReadCacheOrNetwork, was wondering if DataSource.ReadNetworkOnly is a better option to use if i want to avoid played editing files and cheating?

[wicked zealot]

Hey, is there a legal limit in the frequency that rewarded ads are shown?

(for context, I'm playing with the idea of letting players open a Chest after watching a rewarded ad with a daily maximum count)

[wicked zealot]

If security is important and you don't want players to cheat on their data, you definitely want to store the data on your server and not on the device itself

What kind of API you're using to access it is up to you

I'm stupid and use System.IO for saving data on the device (for singleplayer without IAPs, so I don't really care about security, if a player wants to cheat, he can)

[finite tiger]

Can't you do that with just code? Like, set the max number of times the chest can be opened with ADs per day and then reset it every day.

That's what we're doing at least.

[wicked zealot]

Of course, with what else? I'm asking if it's legal.

In theory, somebody could watch one rewarded ad after another, idk if Ad Providers or Google care about this if somebody watches 10 ads without a break

[finite tiger]

Oh oh nvm I misread it.

[finite tiger]

"Yes there is a limit. Generally Ad Network Companies don’t show same add more than 2 times within an hour. Another restriction is that user can see at-max 25 (Note - 25 is the best, other ad networks only allow 10–15 ads or even less per device per day) ads in a day."

[wicked zealot]

Tyvm! Appreciated 🙂
Will read through it!

[finite tiger]

If you did hit the limit, the AD Service you use will not give you ADs for that day so I don't think you got to worry about that

Question has anyone tried building a game for mobile? and how many raycasts are allowed enough for the game to run on a decent amount of FPS

That's not something that you can define an amount for.

It entirely depends on what else the game is doing and if optimization needs to happen elsewhere if you're having performance issues.

Hi, I have a decompiled apk of a game that is capped at 30 fps, can someone tell me how can i make it vsync?

[fallen compass]

It has for other people. Google it 😉

[silk pewter]

Man, that sucks totally that each time I try to run my game on iOS suddenly it doesn't work and I have to update either my phone or XCode.

Like, literally EVERY TIME I try to run my Unity game on my iPhone there is a problem with the provisioning or the versions. Why won't it just work? I run my game like twice a month or less maybe.

Now my phone updated to iOS 16.5 and I have XCode 14.2. So it fails to run. According to the internet I must have XCode 14.3 to run the damn app.

And it's the same each month, either version gets an update and running the app is broken every month. And you are forced to do the damn update. Even though everything worked perfectly & beautifully the month before.

Meh.

I think "well finally I've finished this feature so I'll test it on my phone. Build, run - should take 10 minutes tops". But then I hit a wall. 10 minutes turns to 1h because first I have to Google the XCode errors to find out why it won't work this time.

And then, of course updating XCode breaks some stuff in my MacOS, because lots of tools use "XCode Command Tools". So then the versions are mismatched, aliases are broken, some TOTALLY unrelated stuff like Node or Npm breaks because of library X. So I spend the next 3 days / weeks fixing that, because suddenly I run some command in the terminal, google random errors for 1h. Then everything leads to "Just update your XCode Command Tools". Boom. Same thing again.

Sorry, I just had to vent & rant.

[neon thicket]

Wait until your mac reaches the point it can't update anymore because it's too old and you're forced to get a new one. 🙃

guys please help me for video player settings for mobile phone,
my mp4 video runs decent on the editor
but once I build it, nothing appears
is that the render texture ?

Hi, how do I update/add android 31,32 and 33 in unity editor?

I have them in my android studio.

should I just simply copy and paste them?

[fallen compass]

I've never had android studio installed

[fast egret]

but the highest installed in editor is just 30.

[fallen compass]

I've got 31, can't remember where I got it from

oh no, 30.0.2

but I build for 31 ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fast egret]

it's okay, I didn't encounter any issue using AS anyway, I just wish to use unity editor instead of AS.

[fallen compass]

It was better when Google did the SDK Manager GUI thing

Sir can you help me about Video Player

[fallen compass]

Is your question basically "how to save video from the camera on mobile?"

https://www.google.com/search?q=unity+how+to+record+video+from+camera+on+mobile&oq=unity+how+to+record+video+from+camera+on+mobile&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRigATIHCAMQIRifBdIBCDk5OTJqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

[vestal radish]

my video player runs great on the editor, but won't shows up on my Android

[violet warren]

For mobile performance, let's say I have 100 identical enemies flying across the screen, flapping their wings. They're 256 x 256. Is skeletal animation or frame by frame animation better performance wise? Or does it not make a difference?

(100 would be at the high end. I'd love to go higher but suspect I might be hampered due to frame rate issues.)

[tired lily]

Yooo where to find build.gradle ?

[timber crown]

search your project for Gradle\unityLibrary

If you hit the checkboxes in project settings -> player -> publishing settings you can see too: https://i.imgur.com/v6U6L4R.png

[vestal radish]

dave why you're not mention,

but hey I got those 2 checked

since I'm doing this right now https://developers.google.com/cardboard/develop/unity/quickstart

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71610918/unity-video-player-showing-black-screen-on-android-devices

currently my video only runs at the editor, so I follow the article above from stackoverflow

but it said it needs to modify build.gradle, which is I can't find it anywhere

[timber crown]

I use the windows app "Everything" to search files on my computer

try that out to find your build.gradle

Mine are in <project>\Library\Bee\Android\Prj\IL2CPP\Gradle

and 2 more in Gradle\launcher and Gradle\unityLibrary

[vestal radish]

got em !!!

[vestal radish]

why both were on a diff place

[timber crown]

I don't know

I don't claim to understand it

[vestal radish]

now I need to add this chunck of code,
can I just put it anywhere ?

dave thanks to brought me this far I owe you a life

[timber crown]

You add it into the template files you find through using those checkboxes

But how to make it work right is unknown to me, I couldn't get it working right

[vestal radish]

But build.gradle ain't included on the check boxes at Publishing settings

As depicted in the image, the player character grasps a downward-facing firearm, which rotates 90 degrees in either direction from the central position indicated by the blue color. Given that I am developing this game for Android, I aspire to employ an Android sensor similar to the "Doodle Jump" game. Presently, I am utilizing the Attitude Sensor, which is functional; however, I've encountered an issue. When I'm seated and the chair is rotated while keeping the device steady, the sensor readings fluctuate. I intend to exclusively capture the device's orientation without these unwanted variations. Could anyone offer guidance on which sensor to employ or how to accomplish this?

[sleek eagle]

Probably a combination between gyro and the accelerometer?

The only way to track accurately is using ARCore. Otherwise drifting and lack of tracking with slow movement will exist

I want to rotate a camera around a gameObject on touch with clamp limitations of Y-axis.

Hello, I have a tiny bug on my Android game. When I change the audio source (eg: I connect headphones), my background music stops (but I still have FX sounds).
Here's how my audio source is set

Is there some kind of event method that I can use to reset the audiosource ?

[flint hill]

what should be the maximum rewarded ads limit that I should keep ???

[flint hill]

wdym ?... your audio is playing on speaker but not in ur headphones ?

[tender cloud]

No like let's say that you start playing with the speakers, then while playing you connect some headphones then the background music stops

But I have found a workaround

[flint hill]

what ?

[flint hill]

that is weird... maybe not a untiy problem, maybe its ur headphones prob

and if u are using windows 11, it has hell lot of bugs xD

No worries 😉

[iron parcel]

Responding from a different account. I'm working on creating a basic 2D game. Is integrating the ARCore package the sole solution?

[fallen compass]

You don't need ARCore for non-AR things

[iron parcel]

Exactly then how can I solve my issue, can you suggestion any other solution?

[fallen compass]

Not off the top of my head.

You've got three (?) sensors to use, and you're only using 1 atm?

• Attitude (I don't think this is needed at all)
• Gyro
• Accelerometer

Telehealth or medical apps

None of the above```

what to select here for game dev acc

I am making a game dev account on play console

[fallen compass]

.. the things you plan on publishing

[flint hill]

games

but thats not a option there

[iron parcel]

@fallen compass
First, I tried with Gyro but it gives us Angular Velocity which we don't want because its value depends on speed in which you move the phone.
Then I tried Attitude Sensor which gives us device orientation, it works somewhat but as I explained above when I am not rotating the phone in my hand but if I am sitting on a chair and rotating the chair the reading from Attitude sensor fluctuates, which I don't want.
Basically I want to rotate my gun only when I rotate my phone in its own axis.

[fallen compass]

And which one could you select then? 🤔

[flint hill]

this Apps designed for kids or families
?

[fallen compass]

no

[flint hill]

maybe this :- Apps designed for kids or families
or this : - none of the above

[fallen compass]

None of the above.. because it's ........... none of the above

[flint hill]

yeah thanks

google should add a game catagory too xD

[fallen compass]

why

[sleek eagle]

I personally have seen a lot of drifting with this, especially with side to side movement.
But I was a lot less experienced back then, so that could also be it

[flint hill]

To create your account you'll need to pay a one-off USD 25 registration fee. You may be asked to verify your identity using a valid ID to complete your account registration. If we can't verify your identity, the registration fee won't be refunded.
I dont wanna lose 2000 INR that I got to use one time
what PRECIESLY that means ?

what ID ?

[iron parcel]

@sleek eagle
My mechanics also includes side to side rotation, can you suggest how to get the rotation of the phone in its own axis and not in space.

[sleek eagle]

For rotation just use the gyro, that's what it's there for

[tired lily]

government ID, for example (USA) a driver's license

[flint hill]

its preicsly only that or is there any other ?

[iron parcel]

But Gyro gives angular velocity and its reading changes on the speed at which you rotate your phone but I don't want that I want constant value then also I will give it a try. Thanks for replying

[tired lily]

not sure what you mean? Some kind of official ID is needed. I'm not familiar with other countries, so maybe you need to contact google to find out what they'll accept. You have 90 days to verify (and can't release any apps on the store until you do, ofc)

[sleek eagle]

Start with the phone flat to calibrate, and then apply the velocity to the start rotation and you have the current rotation.
Or calibrate via gravity: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Gyroscope-gravity.html

[iron parcel]

[bright estuary]

How would i go around fixing this issue im currently facing on my mobile development, it shows the correct screen resolution on some devices but on others its a bit off

the orange borders shouldnt be there

its a panel scroll view so because the first one doesnt take the full screen on this device it already shows the second panel

but then on others it fits perfect

i can increase the spacing between the 2 panels but background is still visible then because it does not take up the full screen.

Hey sorry for not getting back to you instantly. Basically, I never got the gradle template stuff working, so I'm not a good source of information for you. I had to roll back my Unity version back to 2021 just to make android work correctly again. If you want to know more about gradle generation and the template files that add to them, you'll have to do research via google and such because I never got it to work right.

Please help!

[fallen compass]

This is an English speaking server

[brazen birch]

No

[karmic estuary]

ok intresting... the thing is my android build gets slower and slower after 5 min till it seems like it is frozes. :/

[brazen birch]

That sounds like a memory leak or something bad happening 😄 definitely good to look into!

[karmic estuary]

yeah can't really make out what the memory leak causes

[karmic estuary]

Here is a comparison screenshot

[brazen birch]

I see some growth in there, but not enough to kill a phone. It increased by maybe 100mb, which isn't going to cause a phone to crawl

My best guess is another script doing something additive that is slowing it down

[elfin monolith]

Is there a way to know if a Unity APK will run on a specific chipset? For example if I'm trying to build for a rockchip rk3326.

[prisma plinth]

No reason why it shouldn't, if it's relatively modern. Just check your android api target/minimum, and the android version on the phone you'll be testing.
If an android version runs, then an app built for that android version should also run

[sterile scroll]

I get different UI scaling on a mobile device (OnePlus 10 Pro) im testing on and in the "game screen" in the editor (with the same 1440x3216 pixels). Any idea why its different when building?
I would think this would be the same.

[fallen compass]

Use the simulator when working on mobile

[wary crag]

Hello i have a fbx in my scene which haves 451k vert but when i disable it my scene stats down much more than 451k. Why is that?

[sterile scroll]

I didnt have a standard OnePlus 10 Pro device in my devices, so i made my own minimal device definition with the width, height, dpi, and OS.
The UI still works on my computer in the simulator while it doesnt on the physical device. Do i need a Complete device definition (and where would i get that)?
So any other ideas? What is different between build and editor.
I tried searching online but all i get are the classic "different resolutions, wrong UI" problems.

[fallen compass]

The way you worded it originally made it sound like you were using the game view set with a resolution

I've never had to add a new device to the simulator.

What are the specific problems you're having with the UI on device? "It doesn't work" isn't a description..
(Probably easier to show the problem than just describe)

Have you used the Android Logcat package to confirm there's no useful msgs ?

[sterile scroll]

Sorry, the UI scales differently between a physical device and the editor view (both in game view and device simulator with the same resolution as the device im testing on) @fallen compass

[fallen compass]

Everything looks bigger on device, first thing I'd do is log out the resolution and see if it is the same you're using in editor

[brazen birch]

Could be lighting. Could be how you calculate polygons vs Unity.

You can make a script to count the verts unity side pretty easily, to see how the importer interprets things.

[wary crag]

nothing change without lightning 😦 i disabed but same

Do we need to have both Apple.GameKit and Apple.Core when I want to use Apple Authentication

Nvm we do

I am getting an error saying Filename "AppleCoreRuntimeShared.swift" used twice:

[finite tiger]

Anyone knows how to fix this? I have two instances of that file. One in Apple.core and one in Apple.GameKit. I deleted the one from GameKit and got even more errors. I tried renaming one and waiting to see the output now

Yeah I get more errors mainly being Command SwiftCompile failed with a nonzero exit code

[vivid crane]

For a mobile game where I wants to have authentication, seasonal events, player data save. Which one would you recommend? Firebase/AWS/Unity? Own solution?

[sonic otter]

I get the impression you haven't done full stack before

[vivid crane]

Yep, not sure where to start

[sonic otter]

It's a lot. Just to have something authenticate a user properly is a lot. I'd recommend completing this course before even thinking about implementing something that people will use https://www.udemy.com/course/complete-guide-to-building-an-app-with-net-core-and-react/?kw=.net+complete&src=sac

This lays a lot down to understand how web apps interact with a back end. Once you understand how the typescript talks with the browser & browser to the server, then substitute the typescript with a Unity front end and move the server instance executable to your aws instance

My Unity remote 5 is not always showing the game. It notices that my phone is connected to it but it's just not showing anything. It's worked in the past a few times but for some reason has stopped. Anyone have any troubleshooting advice?

[charred sluice]

yo this isnt unity related but still in game making i just promgramed a game
how do i download it and put it on playstore

[neon thicket]

If you don't have a Unity specific question, then your question doesn't belong here.

And uploading to the playstore requires you first paid for the developer account, then created the app page and then uploaded your APK.

[finite tiger]

TypeLoadException: Could not resolve type with token 01000075 from typeref (expected class 'Google.EditorInitializer' in assembly 'Google.VersionHandlerImpl, Version=1.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null') Rethrow as TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'Firebase.Editor.XcodeProjectPatcher' threw an exception.

How do I overcome this error?

[tired lily]

looks like you're missing one or more dependencies for Firebase.Editor.XcodeProjectPatcher. Firebase used to have some issues if you didn't install ios build support (even if you didn't use it), so you might try that to start

[finite tiger]

I am building for Android right now and I have another branch for IOS, so I need to add IOS build support for Android too?

I get like 3 errors

https://hatebin.com/qzrzsnthbg

[tired lily]

did you install ios build support in Unity hub?

ios build support for android is sentence that makes no sense

[finite tiger]

Yes

[tired lily]

any chance you mixed firebase assembly versions somehow?

[finite tiger]

I am not sure, I downloaded the SDK from
https://firebase.google.com/docs/unity/setup, that's all

I also have play services and Ironsource, maybe they are colliding or something?

[tired lily]

they shouldn't, but in case it matters I get my versions from here: https://developers.google.com/unity/archive

[finite tiger]

Yeah, I verified there and checked that i had the same version

On google, people were saying to update Mobile dependency resolver but I am unable to find a way to update it since it gets imported as a dependency

[tired lily]

EDM4U is on that page too, when I update Firebase I download the tgz and install locally package by package rather than via .unitypackage. But my next step in your case would be to wipe all firebase packages, wipe out library, and then install them one at a time

[finite tiger]

Okayyy let me try

[finite tiger]

I am getting even more errors 😭

But the same errors are repeating

And I am unable to resolve

But it isnt affecting gameplay and the firebase event functions do get called. But they aren't updating on Firebase. Firebase gets initialized since I am not getting errors.

My google-services.json file includes all the Apps I have in firebase dashboard, is that right or?

[tired lily]

yes

did you try different versions maybe? atm I'm using EDM4U 1.2.176, 1.7.0 of play libraries (except billing is 3.2.3), Firebase 11.0.0 on 2022.3.6f1 with no issue

[finite tiger]

I haven't tried different versions, will do.

[finite tiger]

Hey, on firebase do we have to make separate projects for different apps or can we use on Project and add all our apps in it?

[tired lily]

you can use a single project, but you're limited to 30 apps per project

[finite tiger]

Ahh okay thank you. It works in our older projects with older versions of Firebases but the newer versions are not working

And I get this error on mobile 😭
failed to read firebase options from the app's resources

[finite tiger]

I am getting these errors in editor without even playing the game and it spams this error when I am trying to run Android Resolver https://hatebin.com/fbzjmoiwmc

[tired lily]

still? even with downgraded version?

[finite tiger]

Yeah

I have unity Authentication, Google Play sign in, UGS Leaderboards etc Do they affect?

Been stuck on this for hours 😭

[tired lily]

no, this looks like something is missing (assembly is not being loaded). Maybe you can debug the type load exception by trying to access Firebase.Editor.AndroidSettingsChecker static constructor yourself

[vivid crane]

Hmm interesting approach, I figured firebase would have been a bit easier, but I'll try this thank you

[finite tiger]

How do I do that 😭

[tired lily]

call the Firebase.Editor.AndroidSettingsChecker static constructor (might need to use reflection, they're usually internal) with a try-catch and examine the exception

[finite tiger]

Oh

https://hastebin.com/share/ebatiyucuc.kotlin

I did it like this

And got the Class Type Not Found debug

[tired lily]

then your Type.GetType is wrong, because you know it's there

[finite tiger]

Firebase.Editor doesn't exist for me normally 😭

[tired lily]

that's because it's probably an internal class

[finite tiger]

Oh so what should I do now ;-;

[tired lily]

you need to figure out what's not loading, so time to dive into that method and look around. You can invoke the static constructor yourself like I said to try and get more info, or get inside that method and try to track down which type(s) are not loading

here is how you can get at the constructor

var t = Type.GetType("Firebase.Editor.AndroidSettingsChecker, Firebase.Editor");
var c = t.GetConstructor(BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Static, System.Type.DefaultBinder,
    Type.EmptyTypes, null);

[finite tiger]

Oh that gives an output https://hatebin.com/hppeggbqcq

[tired lily]

do you have multiple copies of EDM4U? it looks suspiciously like the wrong assembly is being loaded and this analytics thing is barfing

[finite tiger]

I don't even have one now 😭

I just deleted the one I had

Lemme re-install it

Adding it gives me the same Debug

[tired lily]

I assume you are restarting Unity between these attempts right?

I found some Chinese site that says you should delete Parse/Plugins/Unity.Compat.dll and Unity.Tasks.dll, so there's another thing to try

  internal static EditorMeasurement analytics = new EditorMeasurement(Settings.Instance, Measurement.logger, "UA-54627617-4", "com.google.firebase", "Firebase", "", "https://policies.google.com/privacy")
    {
      BasePath = "/firebase/",
      BaseQuery = Measurement.BaseQuery,
      BaseReportName = "Firebase: ",
      InstallSourceFilename = Assembly.GetAssembly(typeof (Measurement)).Location
    };

this is the field it's not finding (inside Firebase.Editor assembly), and the most suspicious thing there is EditorMeasurement which in this working project, exists in Google.VersionHandlerImpl.dll, which is a part of EDM4U. So something is wrong with your EDM4U version. Look for all references to this assembly, make sure you wipe them out and don't import them from any other packages (admob for example), and install it yourself. This one that has it for sure is 1.2.176

I've got to go to bed now, so good luck

[finite tiger]

Thank you for the info, I couldnt get it to work so we took the decision to shift to Unity Analytics

I've noticed some recent crashes due to what looks to be supporting older OpenGL versions, does it make sense to switch to 3.0+ exclusively now. It looks like 6.5% of users are still less than v3. In my case that looks like roughly 118 users so I'm tempted to no longer support it.

anyone knows why this line exists ?

it only exists on mobile, doesnt exist on pc or during scene play using editor

theres no code in project for these lines to be there

project was made mobile 2d libraries u can select when creating new project

[odd arrow]

It looks like it's a UI element not resizing properly on mobile resolution

[wind orbit]

ill double check by disabling all ui components

[wind orbit]

ye its not UI, I removed all UI from scene canvas completely gone

and its still there

[odd arrow]

It might not be your UI. You need to check what else did you add.

[wind orbit]

ill remove everything besides empty gameobjects and see how that looks then

[odd arrow]

You don't need to tell me, test first then ask questions

        if (Permission.HasUserAuthorizedPermission(Permission.ExternalStorageWrite))
        {
            Debug.Log("King of Crokinole has access to Camera");
        }
        else
        {
            Permission.RequestUserPermission(Permission.ExternalStorageWrite);

        }   
#endif```

Has something changed? Is it a bug ... and more important, how do I get this to work again?
Again this code works well on anything but Level 33 (target API)

[glad quiver]

So if anyone has run into a similar issue, this is how I solved it:

First I added this to the Android Manifest :
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_MEDIA_IMAGES"/>

And I used this code to get the Android version and depending on the os version do one thing or another:

My build in android seems locked at 10 fps by I don't know what the cause, this is what I found in profiler. this is happen in all scene, the fps locked at 10fps regardless whether the scene is super light or heavy. I don't know what's wrong. Last time I build it get 30fps+, I just add unity authentication, unity cloud save which I don't think it's the issue.

Hello EveryOne, I am Making Third person Game For Mobile I’m using starter asset third person character controller prefab and I’m making a third person game for mobile. controls be like pubg move with joystick and look rotation with touch drag finger.

I am trying to build my project to android for the first time ever and mostly am getting just black screen with garbled graphics that looks like a NES cart glitching out.
Do you have a guide or step by step first time instructions for getting a project onto android?

[neon thicket]

Sounds like you don't need a guide for getting it onto android, if it's already running on the phone (despite it not looking right).

You can download the android logcat package in Unity, plug your phone in and run the app. Logcat will show any errors and such that are popping up. Just make sure you select to show only your app from the dropdown at the top of the logcat panel.

[ornate remnant]

Yall am I good do I just wait now?

[untold pawn]

I will google and try this. Yeah I can make and install an apk but I wouldnt call that successfully building to android when the resulting test scene is just a garbled mess of NES glitches.

[nimble lotus]

i might be a moron, but my android build just refuses to uncap its frames from 30 and I can not figure out why... I have disabled vsync, have tried setting the target framerate to 60, -1, neither change anything, very confused

if someone has any idea what it could be i would love to hear

the game is extremely simple, and my phone is very good, and i've tested on multiple phones and it's still hard locked at 30. ive profiled the app, no performance issues. im lost

when its built to windows it works as expected, its just mobile / android (cant test ios rn)

[nimble lotus]

^Nvm, figured it out. Disabling adaptive performance uncaps it. What is it specifically about the adaptive performance package that caps it, is there any way to uncap it without disabling it?

[ornate remnant]

Wait you might have helped me i hardset mine at 90 but it lags on older phones how dud you do this disabling where is it ?

Hi guys,

I've setup deep linking for my app and after following the documentation I got it successfully working. Inside AndroidManifest.xml, I've setup unitydl as a scheme and mylink as a host and everything seems to be working just fine. But now when I change the scheme to https and host to the custom domain it doesn't seem to be redirecting to the app. What could be the issue with this?

<data android:scheme="https" android:host="www.example.net" />

Please do ping me. Thank you.

Hm im following mobile input tutorials but I am surprised that you are expected to manually code handlers for things like pinch and swipe and drag; the touch input itself doesnt have any concept of the standardized gestures that mobile dev uses

am I mistaken that there is no pre-existing simple call or access some kind of swipe or pinch handler?

[glossy sluice]

Hm im following mobile input tutorials but I am surprised that you are expected to manually code handlers for things like pinch and swipe and drag; the touch input itself doesnt have any concept of the standardized gestures that mobile dev uses

[shut marsh]

Yeah, unity is a bit weird with it's abstractions. I believe these gestures aren't the only thing that is missing for "proper" mobile development

Does anyone know how my saved files could be getting wiped when updating my app? Its just some simple stuff being saved to the application.persistentDataPath - upon updating and opening, all of the files inside that folder get wiped. Closing and reopening after the update keeps the data as it should, but updating is wiping it clean. Not only empty files, I mean completely clean with 0 files there, until a save is made.

[glossy lintel]

Why is it so hard to create the map of something like Clash Royale? I can't even seem to get the camera right. A map, along with its game object, that scales to fit perfectly on every screen size and looks so crisp, nice, and doesn't change the gameplay feel. Do I have to programmatically do this? Are there any tips and tricks you could kindly provide? Thank you.

[sleek eagle]

Not sure if it has an orthographic camera or regular perspective.
For the UI use the canvas scaler smart
For the background just make sure that all aspect ratios (usually 16:9) shows the crucial areas. Also make sure there are graphics beyond this limit so you can see those details on wider screens etc

In Clash there probably is some programming done to match it a bit better, but for most this is not needed

[glossy lintel]

Ill give it a go thank you very much

[neon thicket]

This is an angled orthographic camera. You cannot have it look the same on every device, because there are varying aspect ratios on the market. You build your world to fit the largest aspect ratio (or even larger) and then have it cut off on smaller width devices.

The more important thing is that the gameplay area fit the device. You can scale the size property of your orthographic camera to scale the scene to fit. This video explains that concept using an example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xXlnSetHPM

There is no best version, just take the latest LTS and run with it.

That's irrelevant to the version you're using

That's something you need to figure out

But if it works on 2022, then use 2022 and skip that process

So if it works in 2023, then use 2023

Seems like a pretty simple choice at this point

Occasionally I get this warning on a pre-launch report for some of my apps.

Excessive use of HTTP

Your app's usage of HTTP is significant. Continued use of this insecure protocol may affect your app's visibility in the Play Store. We recommend the use of HTTPS to avoid this possibility.

If you need help finding the source of HTTP requests, consider instrumenting the entry points of your app with detectCleartextNework

If you find the use of HTTP wholly unnecessary for your app to function, consider setting the android:usesCleartextTraffic flag to false. If you're targeting Android N or above, you may consider setting cleartextTrafficPermitted to false in your network security config.

I don't always get the warning, and usually if I upload a new build of the app the pre-launch report doesn't contain the same warning. But I'd like to know why it sometimes happens and if it does indicate there is an actual ongoing problem, even if it isn't flagged in the report.

I don't issue any WWW or UnityWebRequest calls in any of my own code, but I use Google Play Game Services and that does use UnityWebRequest, however from what I can ascertain, it uses https for the URLs it queries.

I also call Unity.Services.RemoteConfig.Utilities.CheckForInternetConnection(), which I guess could be using HTTP under the hood, but I can't find out one way or the other.

There are very few hits for 'Excessive use of HTTP warning from Google Play' on Google, so I didn't find any help there either.

Has anyone on here encountered and resolved the same issue, or could offer some advice on how I might trace the origin of the HTTP requests?

Thanks

Can't believe how difficult it should be to upload a dang apk or aab to the google console 🥴 getting the good old **APK or Android App Bundle which has an activity, activity alias, service, or broadcast receiver with intent filter, but without the 'android: exported' property set. This file can't be installed on Android 12 or higher ** error and trying to fix it with android:exported = "true" is just generating me more errors in a complete new program (Android Studio). If anyone could lend a hand on some obvious "solution" I may have overlooked, It'd be more than appreciated. Before I got this error I had the error that the required API was too low, so I increased it to atleast the required 31 and then that gave me this **Android 12 ** error.

Hi! Do any of you guys know a solution on how i can run my app in the background using unity? Im developing a radio app that should constantly play music even when the power button is pressed (idle state). I'm currently using the latest version of unity it doesnt seem to have that option. I tried onapplicationfocus and onapplicationpause on my script, still no luck. Maybe you guys have an idea on how to do this?

[sleek eagle]

You need to implement custom android plugins/systems to achieve this outside of Unity afaik

[rancid snow]

Ok will try to research more then, if any of you guys have an idea how to do this ill be glad to try it 👍

[slender scroll]

hello I need to open an asset file of a video game but I can't do it, anyone have an idea how?

[brazen birch]

Are you asking for help ripping someone's assets out of their game?

My advice would be to copy them from the original Unity project

[brazen birch]

I probably wouldn't use Unity for that to be honest. Background applications need to have very small footprints. You could as mentioned write a library or add on using Android Studio - but it would be easier to build the whole app in Android Studio.

Even then I'm not sure it'll work how you want without some special accessibility setting or something

[rancid snow]

its fine cause im using a plugin which makes radio streaming possible in unity, btw i found a solution using this article 🙂, just needed to tweek the androidmanifest.xml and CTUnityPlayerActivity.java files in my plugins :

i have mobile resolver

[wooden basin]

If you select the error can you see all the details in the bottom view of the console?

[tender summit]

it gives me now this error aswell

[wooden basin]

Difficult to say exactly why that message appears I would assume something in your setup isn't working. Sadly I haven't built with windows for a very long time.

I think you should go through the setup instructions for the mobile dependency manager again to make sure why it is not working I think a path variable might not be set as expected.

[tender summit]

ok

what is this path variable

[wooden basin]

it is a system variable set for your user in windows

[tender summit]

you mean java home?

now this

...

[wooden basin]

Sounds like the android sdk and java sdks are not correctly installed or setup.

yes, java_home should be set for android builds to work.

Hey folks. I'm testing my Unity 2D URP game on an Android device, and am finding an odd rendering issue. Zoomed out with dozens of units on a tilemap and I'm getting 60fps. If I zoom far in on a single sprite my fps drops to 15 or less. I have only the Sprite-Unlit-Shader on my sprite renders, and everything is quite simple. No clue why zooming in tanks performance. But only on a sprite, its fine if its just the tilemap. Is this a known issue?

Hi, I'm working on a mobile game and I don't know why I cannot see my craft in these scene, I've implemented the functionality to transfer the craft selected from Main Menu scene to the Game scene. The craft is correctly transferred by not visibile.

[tired lily]

UI Image needs a Canvas to render it

[grizzled tangle]

ok but how to do this that image is displayed based on what the player chooses

[tired lily]

make it a child of your canvas

[grizzled tangle]

how, because this is in the game scene whene I hit the play button if I will stop the game it will dissapear

the craft will dissapear

[tired lily]

it needs to be a child of a Canvas to get rendered. If you're moving it from the main menu scene and then not parenting it to anything, you've done half the job

you probably want to be using a SpriteRenderer anyway

[grizzled tangle]

ok and I need to add the SpriteRenderer for all other crafts that I have? (it's a battleship themed)

which permissions? maybe your app was already granted them

and you are not seeing any pop up when you request it?

so circling back, are you sure you don't already have the permission?

next step to debug would be looking at logcat output

since some of those are runtime permissions, probably no

well, dangerous permissions have to be requested at runtime. So naturally they're not going to necessarily be listed under allowed permissions for an app

how do you know you're not getting the popups then ...?

I assume you meant Assets/Plugins/Android, otherwise it's wrong. Are you using EDM4U? Delete libraries, then look at the folder I mentioned and clean out anything extra since sometimes it snuck in, then re-resolve

Which ironsource package did you use?

looks like they have their own resolver, how inconvenient. I didn't say delete the folder though, just delete any extra versions of resolved libraries since any old version that gets left behind will cause duplicate class issues

where did you get instructions to do this? Unless this package is horribly configured, using a replacement activity should be something it does automatically

nothing on that page says anything about changing activities that I can see

[near niche]

hello, I found something kinda weird when building my project the build filed (due to using preset manifest) if I disable that it work just fine , and app works but not functional due to missing permissions

even if I asked at start method

I don't see any permission when testing on my device .

side note :
-I don't have apt atm , usb run doesn't recognize my phone . also I don't have android studio atm . ( I can set'em later)

-when specifying the minimum and target api levels with the manifest file it build but the app crash .. when the preset have mismatch with the editor options it failed to build

-i'm using an old project and sdk but I don't think that's the problem

[near niche]

I think because it doesn't boostrap from unity player activity ! i'm using some native libraries too gotta check out how to change that

[gray elk]

I checked in my profiler and it's the vsync that's giving me low fps. Although i have turned it off :/ any idea how can i counter this?

[near niche]

unityplayer.ForwardNativeEventsToDalvik crash the app how to fix that ?

Screen Size: (720.0, 1560.0)

although I have a front camera, on other devices it's the same

at the start it starts on mobile
I even tried it with skipping frames

and on some device it gives out this

Safe Area: (x:0.00, y:0.00, width:1080.00, height:2340.00)
Screen Size: (1080.0, 2340.0)
but on some such (it differs in height, i.e. everything is ok)

Safe Area: (x:0.00, y:0.00, width:1080.00, height:2307.00)
Screen Size: (1080.0, 2400.0) launches on mobile at launch

Firebase has its own logs, so don't limit yourself to just Unity tagged ones

look at anything produced by your app

[glossy sluice]

I found only crash logs, but i nothing understood

[tired lily]

you're going to need to find out what's happening. Attach android studio's debugger and investigate the crash

[glossy sluice]

This is doesn't give solution, I told you what i found CRASH errors, but crashes errors is a much and doesn't readable, i might give you all crash logs, but i can send only 500 symbols

[tired lily]

hence you should attach the debugger and catch the crash mid-crash, so you can explore the program state at that time and figure out what it was doing. Standard debugging stuff

if you can't read the crash errors and can't find anything else in logcat that points out what the issue might be, you're just wasting time shooting in the dark

you have tried re-resolving libraries? turned on dev build? disabled proguard?

[glossy sluice]

I did anything, how said in Firebase Documentation and YouTube guide videos

You aren't giving us enough information to help you.

[viscid mortar]

the mobile notifications package won't build for me. RIP
Execution failed for task ':unityLibrary:compileReleaseJavaWithJavac'.
there is one thread with other people who have the exact same issue in the past month so it might just be unfixable until its patched. and i dont know android studio well so its hard to debug

[tired lily]

that isn't the error. Look at the error

[lime vessel]

guys, what is the best version to work with the device simulator?

I'm using v2021.3.28f1 but converting the touch screenPos to WorldPos doesn't work since it's just stuck in (0,1)

This is pretty much the error that I'm facing: https://forum.unity.com/threads/device-simulator-bug.1206826/

[tired lily]

if your camera isn't orthographic, you need to set a z value for your screen pos before converting to world space

[lime vessel]

I tried but it still doesn't work

am I doing something wrong?

[tired lily]

z being 0 means no matter what screen pos you use, the output will always be the camera position

your z = 0 is now explicit instead of implicit. Set it to, say, camera near plane instead

[lime vessel]

oooh, no way

so

[lime vessel]

if I want to make a 2D game and save me all of that trouble the best solution would be to change my camera mode to ortographic?

[tired lily]

what trouble? touchScreenPos.z = Camera.main.nearClipPlane? Uh sure I guess

[lime vessel]

oh, sorry. I meant all of the minor problems I could have along the way like this one of having a perspective camera in a 2D game. Or my game could still work fine with the perspective camera?

[tired lily]

I've seen perspective camera used in 2d games (especially for parallax), but yes it'll be a little bit harder

[lime vessel]

Okay, thanks! Then I'll give it a shot with the perspective camera xd

[tired lily]

it sounds like you might have something intercepting the events the scroll rect uses to scroll with. What do you have inside the scroll view?

[rain leaf]

agree, scrollview by default should work out of the box if set correctly, even without scrollbar.
maybe the content is not long enough to be scrolled (adding content fitter usually help)

I don't have a macos so I cannot build the apple gdk : https://github.com/apple/unityplugins/tree/main/plug-ins/Apple.GameKit/Apple.GameKit_Unity
Is there a way to get a finished build? Or is there at least a different way to authenticat users?

[rancid snow]

Hi guys, have any idea how to unfreeze gui when i refocus my app? This is the issue i am having:

As you can see the audio is still running but the gui is frozen, any ideas on how to unfreese this would be appreciated 🙂

[brazen birch]

You need a Mac to do apple builds- even of your game if you want to support apple. It's their intentional design. You could use macincloud or other services I suppose if needed. But you can't really support apple without apple. As you may guess, I'm not a big fan of their ecosystem 😄

[brazen birch]

Check the Unity log on device and see why it's frozen

[spare timber]

I'm aware of the cloud build, I was actually looking for a solution to build one of their pacakges (GDK) which allows authentication without having to build it using mac. I managed to find this : https://github.com/lupidan/apple-signin-unity
seems to be working well for authentication

[brazen birch]

Perfect sounds solved

[rancid snow]

The unity log is clear, no errors

[neon badge]

should i use the universal render pipeline for mobile games

[karmic estuary]

Anyone experience with creating screenshots for android? It destroys the renderTexture connection of my map gob?

[quick halo]

Anyone knows if I can use unity ads if my game isn't in the app store ? (My game is in itch.io)

Help me to integrate the Stockfish API into a unity project for a mobile chess game.
I am trying to create a chess AI bot required for a chess game running on a mobile phone by using the Stockfish API in Unity. I have already downloaded the Stockfish API for Android and Windows from the official site, and the chess AI running on windows has been completed. However, if I build the project to the Android platform, the AI part does not work. If anyone has an idea please help me. Thanks.

[tardy gust]

yo, I know this is a long shot but I've got the same issue (2021.3.27), same thing - script debugging + quest 2.
did you figure out why this happened or how to solve?

[brazen birch]

Aren't those Android errors? I don't see any unity references or project references in there anywhere.

Yeah, a lot the noise in logcat won't have anything to do with you. Your stuff will usually have Unity in one of the columns

It could hint at an error, if the game won't run or display anything - and you see a lot of Android gfx errors, then it's possible the device doesn't support Vulcan or something. But it's also possible the errors are just noise

Yeah no worries those are just device libraries complaining- mostly about image conversion stuff.

Like, nothing you need to fix or worry about

Yeah that'll be a real problem, it would stop you from accessing ads. I can't help there, I don't use unity ads for anything

I have a question regarding skinned meshes. I have a skinned mesh .fbx in Unity. It is working fine. But I would like to add a material to certain faces on the character. I can not use ProBuilder for this as it does not work with skinned meshes. I can import it in Blender then add the material to the faces and then export the fbx again. But then when I overwrite the original fbx and reload it in Unity the mesh is gone. It is not showing anything anymore.
What would be the quickest way to add extra materials to a skinned mesh

[sleek eagle]

You probably need to properly unwrap the model and then change the material or texture

[spare timber]

Is it possible to build to ios with VM Macos? any other tips that don't require an access to a mac?

[lime vessel]

Guys, can someone get the exact world position of a screen touch with a perspective camera?

[tired lily]

since there are an infinite number of points on a line, no. You need to specify a distance in some way

How do I make an apk

For my game

[sick umbra]

my game is lagging very hard on apk on android and all i have in my game is just 2 joysticks controllers and thats it

like im sending the inout from joysticks to my pc with main game but like the dragging of the joysticks is extremly laggy and when i try to minimize the game on phone it also tends to lag

any ideas what is casuing it?

[lime vessel]

Guys, I'm using LeanTouch to move my player on the X and Z axis with the LeanDragTranslate. Does someone know how can I clamp the player?

[tired lily]

"sending the input ... to my pc" = you are using Unity remote?

[tired lily]

your question is either very simple or too vague to answer. Use the Mathf.clamp methods?

[lime vessel]

But how can I clamp it based on the borders of the screen size?

[tired lily]

determine edges of screen in world space and clamp it to those values

[fossil breach]

Unity remote 5 doesn't work for me

it tells me an error

[fossil breach]

I already did everything but nothing

[sick umbra]

im using unity photon pun, but it got nothing to do with sending info

the game overall lags for no reason, as i said, there are only 2 ui elements that are joysticks and they dont work smoothly

[wooden basin]

I would look at using a build pipeline, like github, unity devops, azure devops or similar. But I think you need access to a mac for the initial codesigning setup. You might be able to do that within a VM but it might break as it is a unsupported flow and apple might have checks in their releases to prohibit some part. I have never tried to run macos as a VM

[solemn kindle]

I get this "Allocation" exceptions if the event it triggered

any idea why?

[glossy sluice]

my json file works fine in unity editor but doesn't load in unity build

[tired lily]

hopefully there's another message coming with more info than that, right?

[glossy sluice]

no

just the game isn't working

it has stopped

and the json file isn't loading therefore the information isn't loading

[tired lily]

help us help you by not being vague. You are building to what platform? You are loading the json how (code snippet)? By "isn't working" do you mean the game crashed?

[glossy sluice]

sorry

andorid build

it is not working in android build

and by not working

i mean

the json is responsible for loading the information

because the info is not getting loaded

json is the issue

[tired lily]

90% of the time it's because people are trying to load the json like it's a file when it's not a file in a build, that's why we need to see some code

[glossy sluice]

main function to look for is LoadFromEmployeeData() and start

[tired lily]

use a code site next time. It doesn't look like you check if the file exists before you try to load it, so it's probably throwing FileNotFoundException and the rest of the logic doesn't run

[glossy sluice]

got it

[tired lily]

and you've made the standard mistake of writing to a path that you don't have access to

[glossy sluice]

how to correct it

[tired lily]

you can read and write from Application.persistentDataPath

and if you're hoping to read from a json that's within Assets, that is also going to fail as-is because that path doesn't exist in a build. You can make your json a TextAsset and load from there if it's not found at the persistent path

otherwise, create a StreamingAssets folder and move your json there

actually streaming assets isn't writable on mobile, so you still need persistent path. Do the first thing if you need initial data in that json

[glossy sluice]

instead of Application,path i should use Application.persistentDataPath

?

[tired lily]

yes https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Application-persistentDataPath.html

[glossy sluice]

okay i used persistenDataPath still not working

on android,wokring on unity perfectly

string pathFile = Application.persistentDataPath+"/EmployeeData.json";
if (File.Exists(pathFile)) {

string fileObj = File.ReadAllText(pathFile);
employeeDataSet = JsonUtility.FromJson<EmployeeDataObject>(fileObj);

}

i checked the direcotry on android where json was supposed to be present

but it wasn't build

so i think the right question would be how to build the json and put it at the persistentDataPath location

[tired lily]

yes, now you've figured out the problem

option 1: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/TextAsset.html and write to persistent path if not found there
option 2: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/StreamingAssets.html and copy to persistent path if not found there

[glossy sluice]

so in other words i should convert the json file into a text asset

can i just change the extension of my .json file to .txt

[tired lily]

no, it's already a text asset. Create a script with a serialized TextAsset field and drag it in

[glossy sluice]

File.WriteAllText(file.text,JsonUtility.ToJson(employeeDataSet));

file is the serialised reference to the json file

this line is throwing an error

[tired lily]

no, you can't write to an asset

(in a built player)

[glossy sluice]

so how to solve this now 😦

[tired lily]

? this is the logic you're implementing

   load json from text asset
else
   load json from persistent path

[glossy sluice]

but how to write it and where

loading doesn't seem to be the issue

[tired lily]

you always write to persistent path

[glossy sluice]

but when there is no json file in android persistent path

how will it write

[tired lily]

I don't understand your confusion. You don't need a file to exist in order to write to it. You can create a new one?
