When you create the package there also should be a "Read Me" folder added to your submission folder.
If you can check if the file is there and if the text looks Ok.
I tested it now, but I can not see Read Me folder or file added to the generated package.

Hi,
Thanks for testing.

Did you get any errors?

Can you try searching in the project folder if it is saved on a different place?

No, I did not get any errors. And I can't find it anywhere on the Unity or in the project's folder when looking with Finder. Also, it does not exist in the location where it did .unitypackage.


This is only what the exporter printed to console:
Quote
Assets/GameJamFolder\README.txt
UnityEngine.Debug:Log(Object)
PlaymakerGjamExporter:CreateReadMe() (at Assets/PmGameJam/Editor/PlaymakerGjamExporter.cs:560)
PlaymakerGjamExporter:CreatePackage() (at Assets/PmGameJam/Editor/PlaymakerGjamExporter.cs:444)
PlaymakerGjamExporter:_CreatePackageButton() (at Assets/PmGameJam/Editor/PlaymakerGjamExporter.cs:111)
PlaymakerGjamExporter:OnGUI() (at Assets/PmGameJam/Editor/PlaymakerGjamExporter.cs:73)
UnityEngine.GUIUtility:ProcessEvent(Int32, IntPtr)
And I noticed that the path seems to be weird.


But after changing the line 559 in the PlaymakerGjamExporter.cs from:

Code: [Select]
string readMePath = gjFolder + "\\" + "README.txt";
to this -->
Code: [Select]
string readMePath = gjFolder + "/" + "README.txt";
It then creates the README.txt file successfully.

Hi.
Thanks for testing some more
Yep i noticed that one also, but then after some testing i had some issues that the package was build before the readme was finished and then it was not included in the package, but it was included in the folder.
So i added a 'while' loop to be sure it gets included.

Below is the updated version, again thanks for testing

Readme.txt is now in the correct folder.

But there are some possible issues. I took screenshots of those that are in the attachments.

1.) While importing the created package, there seems to be more in it than needed. I only dragged "GameJamTestFolder" to the exporter, but there are also my other testing folders shown (not selected though).

2.) If I press the delete/x-button after added asset it will throw an error in the console. It still works, but to let you know.

Any other suggestions?
Would it be nice that there is free text area for additional instructions?

Hi.
1) The Library and the project settings should be included yes.
But In the "jamscene" did you use some stuff from that holoLens?
i can see that several dlls got include above your jamscene.
could you send a link to me from the package so i can test when i import this?

2)The delete out of range only seems to happen on the top asset (when there are more)
It works but i will look to change it, so there will not be an error
I will also adjust the X size.

Text area is a very good idea for instructions/descriptions
I will add this.

I will try to update tonight if i don't have to much work today :)

Thx again for testing/helping

In the scene that is in the GameJamTestFolder I used only ProBuilder.
And I personally don't have HoloLens or haven't downloaded anything for it (at least on purpose).
I can look this evening and post a link to that package + provide a picture.

I did create a whole new project.

1.) Created folder named: JamFolder
2.) I saved the scene there as mainScene and leave it as default, with no changes to the scene
3.) Imported Playmaker to project and installed it
4.) Then used the exporter

The created package is approximately 26,8Mb big and in the picture, there seems to be so much in it that it seems to look from the filesystem, not just from the project.

Hi,
I just noticed that the hololens and the other folders are from unity itself so they can stay included.

Preferences and stuff need to be included as the projects are complete project and might have changes in (for example) the input manager.
And i just found out that tags and layers are also included there so i can leave them out from the read me :)

i will start to make a build now with your suggestion :)
