uhoh, what is VC again?

languid frost
#

Version Control, as in the error message you posted

lapis burrow
#

ohh ye UVC

#

I love this stuff happening when working on game jam games...

languid frost
#

shit happens and unfortunately UVC is not the most stable of products

#

you working on this with a team?

lapis burrow
#

Yup as 2

languid frost
#

then they probably have the same problem

lapis burrow
#

Ill ask

lapis burrow
#

(We currently do pixel art, so not going over the 5GB threshold)

languid frost
#

tbh I took one look at UVC and said 'no fucking way'

lapis burrow
#

You're using git?

languid frost
#

yep

lapis burrow
#

Is it as simple as "pushing changes" as UVC?

languid frost
#

yes, if you use something like GitHub Desktop it's real easy

lapis burrow
#

Ah I see

#

I assume it's similar to desktop plastic scm

languid frost
#

similar

lapis burrow
languid frost
#

that is what I guessed

lapis burrow
#

I kinda get these problems when using gluon

#

I feel like using the standard version was less problematic

#

Okay funnily enough my colleague was able to send changes

languid frost
#

tbh as you are no doubt in a rush, best thing you can do is abandon this project and create a new one from your backup

lapis burrow
#

And I was able to import them

#

True

#

It's not that big

languid frost
#

problem is with UVC is it's not self healing, once corruption has set in to the change requests/commits it can propagate down when you least expect it, I would not want you to lose your project to corruption

lapis burrow
#

Damn okay

#

So I just "add project" in the hub and create a new workspace?

languid frost
#

Just to be on the safe side, assume that whatever is in UVC now for that project is suspect

lapis burrow
#

What could have possibly corrupted it? Files? Scripts?

#

Damn they even call it UVCS

languid frost
#

could be anything, network glitch is favourite

lapis burrow
#

Network glitch? That doesn't seem too good. Does that occur when working with an unstable internet conncetion?

languid frost
#

yes

lapis burrow
#

Do I want to delete the library in the copy? Heard Unity just rebuilds it for the neccessary stuff

languid frost
#

absolutely

lapis burrow
#

Oh and probably the .plastic file?

languid frost
#

definitely, that is the local repository which will be corrupt

lapis burrow
#

Anything else?

languid frost
#

Temp

lapis burrow
#

Good call

languid frost
#

you might also want to delete the .sln and .csproj files as they will be rebuild with the new project name

lapis burrow
#

Are they in some subfolder?

#

Those are all folders in the root projet folder

languid frost
#

should be in that folder

lapis burrow
#

Oh

#

I know why

#

Only saw folders, not files

#

Well too late

#

Lets see

#

if this works

#

Is there any reason to pick one over the other?

languid frost
#

I would go for the first one

lapis burrow
#

Well that seemed to work fine for now, was able to push all changes

languid frost
#

just make sure your team mate updates as well, he will need to pull into a clean project

lapis burrow
#

Yea he will load the project via the add button in the Hub

languid frost
#

perfect, best of luck with the jam

I've been on/off developing games for ~3 years now, which is still not too much tbf, considering the amount of games I've actually completed

#

Oh wow, alright, glad to have you on this discord!

languid frost
#

Don't be too happy, I'm a very grumpy old man and very easy to piss off

lapis burrow
#

You sound very young and too nice for that to be true!

#

(Just clicked on one of your videos)

languid frost
#

rofl, I wish

lapis burrow
#

Ah wait

#

That was navarone

#

Another name I remember helping me here haha

languid frost
#

take my advice, switch to using Git in the future

lapis burrow
#

No, you really are very nice in my reality and I have a lot of respect for those who know so much!

#

I feel like it's a year long journey of trial and error to make projects fast and readable

languid frost
#

Most people would disagree with you, I do not suffer fools gladly if at all

lapis burrow
#

If the only contacts we have are in a good mood, you are always a good mood person for me!

#

Also you helped me and even converse with me afterwards, I'm sure you are not just some grumpy old man, I respect you a lot.

languid frost
#

You seem like a sensible person with at least a functioning brain, that already puts you in the top 1% on this server

lapis burrow
#

I take that as a compliment and it's just that I realized, a lot of my future is determined by what I decide to do each day. I'm in a very productive Game (Jam) phase right now, as we realized what we're missing after missing the deadline for the polymars x spacejam game jam and I gotta say, I am really enjoying this and envisioning myself as some kind of pioneer in like 20 years for some kind of VR/AR/Deep Dive Technology and not abiding the gaming industry, but making actual educational content in the form of interactive media. Maybe this vision helps me focusing on tasks and seeing my position as someone learning from the knowledged and respecting their time.

languid frost

20 years is a very long time in the tech business, 20 years ago we could not have imagined the AR/VR tech we have today, 40 years ago we could not have imagined the Phone tech we had 20 years ago and what we have today is just 'magic' compared to then. Do not expect tech in 20 years time to be anything like what we have now

lapis burrow
#

Exactly

#

Good talk, thank you for your time!

languid frost

You're welcome, nice to meet you and, once again, good luck.
