NGUI 3.5.9 windows 8 Issues

[GarryO]

Hi,

Im in the process of porting my IOS game to windows 8 and upgraded to NGUI 3.5.9 to eliminate the datanode error that showed in the previous release of NGUI. I now have 6 new errors for a total of 12 errors. Do you have mitigation's for these errors?

You need to follow the 3-step upgrade instructions from the readme file. More specifically -- you need to clean out the previous version of NGUI before importing the update.

Thanks,

That fixed 8 of the 12 errors. Advice to others. follow the 3 step instructions:

If you have a Standard Edition:

1. In Unity, File -> New Scene
2. Delete the NGUI folder from the Project View.
3. Import NGUI from the updated Unity Package.

As a result I have the following 4 errors:

Assets/Assets/NGUI3x_Widgets_volume_3/Scripts/UISlider360.cs(14,28): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `UIWidgetContainer' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Assets/NGUI/Scripts/UI/UIFilledSprite.cs(15,31): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `UISprite' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Assets/NGUI/Scripts/UI/UIInputSaved.cs(13,29): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `UIInput' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Assets/NGUI/Scripts/UI/UISlicedSprite.cs(15,31): error CS0246: The type or namespace name `UISprite' could not be found. Are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?

Do you have fixes for these ?

The only way you can possibly get those errors is if you haven't actually followed the 3 step process you said you followed.

Note step 2. You need to delete the old version of NGUI. Fully. Gone. If you had done that, how can you possibly still have "UIInputSaved", "UISlicedSprite", etc? They don't exist in the current version of NGUI.

Hi,

I followed the steps precisely. Does the Hud Text package have to be removed as well? its not in the NGUI path?

Found the root cause. another package NGUI 3.x widgets volume_3 needed to be removed and re-imported at the same time.

For others, it may be a good idea to find and re-import other packaged dependent on NGUI if the run into issues.


Thanks for your assistance.

Cheers,
