ES3 not working on Experimental NET 4.6

[ViralGameStudios]

Hello there!

I bought this awesome asset some time ago, and now I am trying to implement an autosave feature in my game, and I keep getting the same error. So I created a new, clean project, and tested it.

This new project worked fine with ES3AutoSaveMgr, but didn't in my project. So I tried and tried and tried... and found that the problem was because I was using the scripting runtime version "Experimental (.NET 4.6 equivalent)". When I switched to that in Edit-Project Settings-Player, the same error happened.

When I play a scene with an "Easy Save 3 Manager" GameObject, I get this error:

Code: Select all

FormatException: Expected quotation mark, found '8'.

Moreover, when I try to create a Save() for a GameObject with only a transform (and no other component), I get this other error:

I can't change the whole main project to Mono 3.5 only for this (got tons of features using C#6).

What can I do?

If you need me to, I can mail the example project

[ViralGameStudios]

More updates (= more info for the dev).

Then problem seems to be with the JSON parser/writer. When I save an sphere with only a transform, the 3.5 version creates a valid JSON

SaveData35.es3.txt

Right formatted JSON (stable mono 3.5)

(1.49 KiB) Downloaded 318 times

However, when I save the sphere using Mono 4.6, the JSON created is NOT valid

SaveData46.es3.txt

Wrong formatted JSON (experimental mono 4.6)

(1.48 KiB) Downloaded 303 times

The problem is this: with 3.5, the parsing of a float is valid, but with 4.6 it is split into two lines: (check the "z" for this localPosition):

Code: Select all

"localPosition": {
					"x": 0,
					"y": 0,
					"z": -5.53
}

Code: Select all

"localPosition": {
					"x": 0,
					"y": 0,
					"z": -5,
					53
				}

So the problem must be with the JSON Saver and the comma operating values.

I will investigate further and post the results

Hi there,

Thanks for the detailed bug report.

We're not officially supporting .NET 4.6 until it's no longer experimental. However, the error you're encountering appear to be because StreamWriters take account of the culture info. which doesn't happen in 3.5.

This is an easy fix at our end, and if you PM me your invoice number I'll send you an update to address this. You will also need to delete the old save data containing the commas.

All the best,
Joel

Thanks a lot!!! PM'ed you.

Hi,

I have the same error with .NET 4.6.
I've had Easy Save for a long time and I can not find my invoice number. In my Unity account, the shopping list does not go far enough. I bought your Asset before August 2016

How can I have the correction? I am stuck because of this error in my project.

Thank you

Hi there,

Unfortunately we cannot provide update packages without an invoice number. However, if you email the Asset Store on assetstore@unity3d.com, they should be able to find this for you.

They will have also sent you an invoice via email, so it's worth searching your email for "Easy Save".

All the best,
Joel

I contacted Unity, just wait, in the meantime I came back in .NET 3.5 ...
