Can't build for Android in Unity 2021.3.16

mt8791811 · July 23, 2024, 4:58pm

I changed my project from PC to Android and since then I kept getting various errors when I build.

Error 1:

> Configure project :launcher

WARNING: The option setting ‘android.enableR8=false’ is deprecated.

It will be removed in version 5.0 of the Android Gradle plugin.

You will no longer be able to disable R8

There were many errors before the final ones I shared above and the solution included removing JCenter and added mavenCentral instead. Here is my gradle template:

I have this line in the gradle properties and when I remove it unity gives me a message I provided a screenshot.
Sorry if I put unnecessary stuff I am not sure which one you need to help me.
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

If i recall, this is deprecated, as the error is telling you in the final screenshot. Allow unity to automatically update this file, a backup will be created if there is anything in there you need to reference later.

Thanks for replying, Yes, it’s deprecated, I don’t know how to stop getting this message because when I remove that line Unity adds it again. This error doesn’t seem to have caused the major build error though, because I remember I had this error before and it was not big of a deal other than being an annoying error message.
