hey there!
i’m working on a game with my friend and we share the game to eachother like this: i make something, i send the folder with the game.project trough google drive, he downloads the auto compressed drive version, and he opens it, it works for him, he makes changes, he sends it back to me the same way, but when i open game.project. defold crashes mid loading.
helppppp.
Hi!
What Defold version are you and your friend using?
What OS’es are you two using?
And when sharing “folder”, make sure you don’t copy each other’s build folder.
We’re on the same version.
He’s using windows 10 and i’m using ubuntu 22.04.
The strange thing is that he can run my project but i cant run his. Not sure what os you use byt on my linux the project folder with the game.project is saved in “home”. I compressed that folder sent it to him. He extracted to another folder i think (i dont know much about windows) and that worked for him. Then he compressed that and sent it to me which didn’t work so we tried to put the folder into drive and send it but that didn’t work either
Use github. Maybe it is related to ignored folders files in .gitignore
Ok i’ll try, thanks!
Speculating here, but most common issue when sharing code between different operating systems via copy/paste after editing them is the line breaks inside the files.
So yes, use git (Github, Gitlab etc.)
Yes, I bet this is the reason!
