Can't create skeletonAssetData Unity (InvalidCastException)

nicmar

I exported from 3.8.72 and into Unity 2019.1.8f1 with the runtime from 2019-09-05, and get this error when dragging the 3 exported files into Unity. The _Atlas and _Material files are created, but not _SkeletonData.

The spine file is based on the Gunman asset, and I think the export settings are pretty default.

How can I fix this? Thanks!

InvalidCastException: Cannot cast from source type to destination type.
Spine.Unity.Editor.SpineEditorUtilities.GetRequiredAtlasRegions (System.String skeletonDataPath) (at Assets/Spine/spine-unity/Editor/SpineEditorUtilities.cs:913)

I tried to open the project with 2019.2.1 instead, but that gave me this error instead:
Assets/SpineMen/Scripts/Boxman/BoxmanController.cs(29,19): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'Modules' does not exist in the namespace 'Spine.Unity' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

After I deleted that and all boxmen, i managed to get it working. But does this mean it doesn't work in 2019.1 or did I do something wrong?

The export settings all look good, and exporting from 3.8 and using the resulting assets in unity with spine-unity from 2019-09-05 should also work as intended. Where is the SpineMen/Boxman asset from? To my knowledge, this is not part of our runtimes or the Gunman asset. I would guess that since you deleted the asset and things started to work, that the issue lies with that asset.

Thanks, the boxman/spinemen folders were in the Gunman sample project to test the controls. I think I use the 2018 version of the gunman. After deleting the gameobjects and conflicting scripts i got it working. I might have broken the project somehow, but you might wanna check that out 🙂

Ah sorry, I'm not super familiar with the Gunman asset. Guess we have to update it!

We are sorry for the inconvenience! The asset packs have just been updated to spine-unity 3.8.
Please re-download the packages and extract them to a clean location (do not unzip it over an old existing project).

Thanks for reporting!
