Unity Won't Build my Game

It says I have scripts with console errors. Everything works fine while running in Unity. What's wrong?

 

You need to post the error message. It will give the file and line number as well

 

Error building Player because scripts had compiler errors
UnityEditor.HostView:OnGUI()

I have no idea what that even is.

 

When you try to run the game, its throws that error. look at the bottom of your screen, there will be a detailed error message with a file name and line number. Post that info.

 

What I'm trying to say is that there are no errors and everything works fine. I only get that when I try to build.

 

Are you building for the web? If so try building a standalone. I thought there might be a build log that would provide more clues.

 

That error seems to occur when you try including a dynamically linked library into a webplayer build, or when the wrong .NET version is selected for the standalone player.

 

I'm building a standalone. So what settings to I need to change to fix this?

 

When you go to build, click on the 'Player Settings" button. That will bring up the player settings box, expand the "other setting" area in that box and you will see the "API compatibility level. Select the first one, build it. If that fails, select the next one. Hopefully one of them will work. On my systemI only see two options, .net 2.0 and .net 2.0 subset.

What add on are you using such that you are referencing a .net dll?

 

None of those work. I don't know what add on you think im using.....

 

I'm getting the same crap when i try to do a test build...

 

Goto this link and look at the image the guy posted. Do you get that same error? If you do, click on it and see if it expands giving more details.

I think you have something like this guy had. I *think* you imported a bunch of of assets that you are not using and on of them is a dll. Find that dll and remove it and I bet it compiles. However, you not giving enough clues. Anyway, read this...

create a folder anywhere called 'editor' and put your scripts with errors in it, and have a good build

Edit: UnityEditor classes are unavailable when building ( as editor is then useless ).
Therefore this gens an error at build time

 

highly doubt you still have this problem, but this is for anyone else that sees this. I tried making my build x86 and it took away a bunch of the errors, then removed my prefab brush, then it was good.

 

i had the same problem i change color space into gama building for android. file----player setting--------other setting----- ( then change linear to gamma

 

Unreal engine doesn't have those annoying errors , try it now ! it's much better than unity

 

Really? On a UNITY forum?

 

Hey guys, if anyone finds this thread while trying to make builds using Unity version 2019.4.0f1
try going into your player settings, and under "other" look for the scripting backend option. It wanted me to install ILP2CC or however you spell it at first, and then when I would build for standalone it would never export anything to my hard drive to test. Turns out that's the wrong scripting backend entirely. Change that option to "Mono" and it should build just fine! (as long as you don't have any other issues, of course. That's what fixed it for me)

 

then why are you here?

 

Thanks, this did the trick for me.

 

thanks. only helpful thing on the thread. was searching for hours for answer

 

I was having issues with a build and was left with no errors - only the *ding* sound that indicated the build did not work. I created a backup of my project by making an export of my assets, created a new project with the same name but version 2 at the end so I knew the difference, and imported the just-created assets from my first project, tested to make sure it worked, then did a new build with the new version 2 project. That seemed to work for me.

 

Will this only work if you script in C++ or like scripting in C# is fine
