[1.1.3] Player crashes when project contains Editor-only Resources

Since 1.1.3 my build crashes immediately at startup during the initialization of the Addressable system. This is caused by assets within Resources folders which are serializations of types that use Editor-only assemblies. While this asset management technique is undoubtedly questionable, it is used by many third-party solutions. In my case, the "FMODStudioCache" asset of FMOD is the reason for the app to crash. Although it is never loaded during runtime, it is included in builds and now gets touched during initialization. I could only resolve this issue by deactivating the Resources folders from the Built-In group.

 

Thanks for the info, we're working on a fix.

 

I still get an error with 1.1.4-preview for this problem

This is NOT fixed in 1.1.5

 

I've been trying to reproduce this and can't with what info I have. Please file a bug against unity with a sample project, or post a link to a sample project here. This is definitely something I want to get resolved quickly, so if you can help us reproduce it, that would be great.

 

never mind. i found the repro. got it cleaned up for the next release.

 

You mention disabling the Resource folder from "Built In". How do you go about doing that? I can't find anything in the UI.

 

In the Addressables window, you will have to select the "Built In Data" group (first entry) to display its properties in the Inspector. You can then uncheck the "Include Resources Folders" option of the PlayerDataGroupSchema in the Inspector.

 

Exactly. Though that group could be called "Player Data" if you've been using Addressables for a while. That was the name we used once upon a time.
