Excellent! The error message itself could be improved though. I’ve created a ticket to improve the message further but since it’s not a very critical issue it will take a while before we’ll see it implemented. DEF-2097

I’m getting this error ERROR:RESOURCE: Empty resource path and I really wish it would more descriptive because I’m not really sure where it is after doing a bunch of different work… Is there anywhere where the raw error information is saved in editor 2?

#5

Adding a blank script to a GUI made error go away.

#6

Oh, so Editor 2 gives this error if a .gui scene doesn’t have a script? That’s a bug. Would you mind reporting it?

#7

Done https://github.com/defold/editor2-issues/issues/721

I’ve spotted that error recently and would like to ask if DEF-2097 to create a more informative description will be added?

#9

I got this anonymous message now, and it turned out to be a model with the parameter “tex0” empty. The texture is set dynamically, so in my case this warning is redundant.

#10

The issue is still in, can’t find to what I have missing resources set and a better description pointing out which file it regards, would be very useful. The linked issue above is in an archived repository - is there such issue reported in Defold repository?

I don’t think so. Great if you can add it!

My first issue is trying to reproduce this error message. Do you have clear steps to reproduce?
