Unity Game project fails to be packaged for the Windows Store

Hi everyone.

I am trying to package up my game so I can put it into the windows store. It builds and runs (with a lot of warnings). But when I go to package it, that fails with 1 error and 305 warnings.

I have tried both D3D and XAML builds with the same results.

There is an MSDN forum thread where people have had the same problem, none of the solutions will work for me though as I don't have any of the files mentioned.

My Unity version is 2017.3.1f1
Using Visual Studio 2017



Here is the error message:

APPX1606 All languages specified in the Language attribute of the Resource element in the app manifest must be supported by the Windows Store. The value of the Resource element is comprised of the value from the Default Language field in the App Manifest Designer and a generated the list of languages based on localized resources in the project. The list of Windows Store app languages is available at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=223184.

And warning Messages (sample)

Warning MSB4011 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\Common7\IDE\VC\VCTargets\Microsoft.Makefile.props" cannot be imported again. It was already imported at "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V140\Microsoft.cpp.props (31,3)". This is most likely a build authoring error. This subsequent import will be ignored.

Warning PRI249 0xdef00520 - Invalid qualifier: DLL-RESOURCES

Warning PRI257 0xdef00522 - Resources found for language(s) 'ab,be,ca,da,de,fa' but no resources found for default language(s): ''. Change the default language or qualify resources with the default language. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=231899

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Okay.
The fixes in the other forum thread did not work for me, so I guess I will have to wait.
Thanks for the information.

 

I changed the csproj, added the two lines of xml suggested. recompiled and get the same errors. Tried it with ILTOCPP (or whatever its called) scripting engine, tried it with the .net scripting backend.

 

I have the same error message when building my game in vs.

APPX1606

It was fine yesterday, only added baked gi and now I have this error message. I have a copy of my project before I baked my scene gi and it is building fine.

 

Can you please update us on this thread when it is available?

 

Yes I have baked scenes as well.

 

Awesome

 

Thank you for letting us know!

 

I have installed

Unity 2018.1.6
Visual Studio 1017 Preview 3

Still can not get it to build this project (when it actually manages to compile) that passes the wack tests.

Although its not the original error. Maybe I should start a new thread for different error messages.

The whole trying to get this app in to the windows store is a bad experience.

 

Actually it always compiles, its creating the app packages, that is a huge PITA.

 

At the moment its not possible to get a Unity Project into the windows store. Has not been possible for months (that is how long I have been trying).

If you compile with D3D you get one error message.

See this thread https://forum.unity.com/threads/win-store-package-fails-always.538972/

I actually got this to compile once and the store knocked it back because for icons (even though I had every possible icon).

If you compile with XAML
