Resources folder not included in desktop build

There seems to be some file size limit on the Resources folder before it stops being included in the build. We built for both Windows and Mac and neither include the files in the Resources folder. I'm trying to narrow it down to the exact file size where it stops working, but I'm currently around 160MB with it not working, and it works fine at around 80MB.

We've tried the following:

Resources.Load(filepath);
Resources.Load<GameObject>(filepath);
Resources.Load(filepath) as GameObject;

The files are txt files, 3DS files, and png files.

Any ideas?

 

You should be able to make Gigabytes of resource folder. As far as I know there is no such limit.

Is your Resource folder inside an Editor folder? If this is the case this behavior is just natural. Unity does not include resource folders that are inside Editor folders in builds.

 

No, we don't get any messages.

Here's our directory structure:

 

Both builds are identical, except for the number of pngs in Resources/Artworks. Both run fine, but the one doesn't have any of the files built with it. There are no messages when the build is created, unless I'm missing where these are logged. If we put the pngs from the broken build into the working build, it also doesn't work.

Splitting up the files to find where it exactly breaks is what we're currently doing. It happens specifically with our folder of pngs, so we're hoping there's just one that's somehow screwing it up.

 

Same problem here: empty Resources folder in windows desktop build.
The original Resources folder in project is 29 megs in size and contains around 120 jpgs & pngs, a json file and OculusPlatformSettings. No warnings or errors whatsoever during build.

 

Any further update about this?

 

I just started having this same issue. No warnings or anything, just nothing is included in the resources folder. If I manually copy and paste everything from my project to the build, it runs fine.
Has there been any answer to this?

 

This really needs to be fixed or at least explained so a work around can be done. The Unity reps on the PS4 dev portal have told me to come here to fix the issue, but there never seems to be a way to actually reach a Unity tech when needed.

 

After removing some assets things started working correctly again, but now it is back, and with a minimum amount of resources used. Is there no one from Unity that can offer support for this???

 

same problem but it only includes certain file types.

 

It is Oct-2021 and I have a small project. it runs fine in unity, but the windows-PC build is unable to find its resource images. those images are inside a directory inside the resources directory inside assets.

 

Good afternoon, I’m from the future, we still have the same problem here in the future, tell me in what decade the fix is expected, we would like to make the build before 2027
