    I am creating a windows build and tested the resulting build.
    When starting the standalone client I see the following error messages in the log:

    Code (Boo):
    1. NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object

    All my TextMeshPro Labels are removed - the game starts but no text object labels appear anymore.

    So this only happens in the Unity Build Automation. When I build locally via Unity Editor - everything works fine.
    I am building on a MacOS if this is relevant to know here.

    Here is the Compact Log of the build: https://pastebin.com/h1L4Mk2c

    So the Build Automation created successfully a new windows build. However even tho I could locally resemble everything fine that same state (being pushed to Git) still creates the mentioned Textmesh Pro issues. What should I do?

    I'd recommend opening up a support ticket so that one of our engineers can take a deep look. You can do this in the help and support section of the DevOps portion of the Unity Dashboard

    Fixed thanks. For some reason my gitignore excluded TextMeshPro
