Hello,

I'm trying to build my game using IL2CPP scripting backend on Windows x64 using 2.0.0 and I am getting the following error:

Code: Select all

stdout:

Any idea why I am getting this issue? Is it really related to Dialogue System? I was able to properly build a il2cpp build when using 1.8.2, so my guess is that it is a new 2.x problem.

Thanks!

Hi,

Have you tried the patch on the Pixel Crushers customer download site? (I'll PM you your access info right after this.)

Please also check the file Assets / Plugins / Pixel Crushers / Dialogue System / Templates / Link / link.xml. Does it match this?

Code: Select all

<linker>
    <assembly fullname="Assembly-CSharp-firstpass">
        <namespace fullname="PixelCrushers.DialogueSystem.SequencerCommands" preserve="all"/>
    </assembly>
</linker>

I just tested an IL2CPP build with these settings:

Unity 2018.1.2f1
Target Platform: Windows
Architecture: x86_64
Scripting Runtime Version: .NET 4x Equivalent
Scripting Backend: IL2CPP
API Compatibility Level: .NET 4.x

Hello Tony,

I just tested with the latest patch and I'm still having the same issue. Could it be that the main path for Dialogue System is not directly in the root as default when I'm installing the package? My install is in "Externals\Pixel Crushers\..." instead.

I'll put that issue on hold anyway as I need to do a build for Comiccon in two weeks, I'll use a Mono build for now, but I'll test out later with a demo scene to see if I'm having the issue. The only difference I am seeing with your build settings is that I am on Unity 2018.1.5f1 (had the same problem with 2018.1.4f1).

Yes. That's the issue. When possible, if something installs into Plugins, it will benefit you to keep it in Plugins.

Unity compiles in multiple passes. In the first pass, it compiles the C# scripts in Plugins into an assembly named "Assembly-CSharp-firstpass".

If nothing changes in Plugins, Unity can skip all those files when recompiling. This will make it much faster to recompile when you make changes your own code, which presumably isn't in Plugins.

In this case, the il2cpp build is failing because the Dialogue System's link.xml file expects the Dialogue System to be compiled into the Assembly-CSharp-firstpass assembly. But, since it's no longer inside Plugins, it's compiled into Assembly-CSharp instead. I recommend moving it back to Plugins. If you don't want to do that, you can edit link.xml and change "Assembly-CSharp-firstpass" to "Assembly-CSharp".

Hello Tony,

I moved back the files to Plugins and that did it! I didn't even know that Plugins was a special Unity folder. Thanks a lot, it is now working great.

Great! Thank for letting me know.
