Google Play Services + Appodeal don't work

Questions & Answers
1

I’m trying to integrate google play services and appodeal plugins into my game, but there is a conflict between them.

When I use only one of them, everything works perfectly.

I’m doing the following:

  1. Install the Google Play Services 0.9.50 plugin.
  2. I go to Window / Google Play Games / Setup / Android Setup and make the settings.
  3. I go into Assets / Play Services Resolver / Android Resolver / Force Resolve and everything is ok.
  4. Install the Appodeal plugin, without the PlayServicesResolver folder.
  5. Go back to Assets / Play Services Resolver / Android Resolver / Force Resolve and this time is requested to install “* tools (26.1.1)” and “extras; google; m2repository”, both successfully installed.
  6. After this there was an error, showing the following message:

Resolution failed

I too was having this issue when using appodeal + play games services. In my case it was the below errors

Failed to fetch the following dependencies:

com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:9.8

com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:9.8

I contacted Appodeal support and they gave a workaround/solution

You need to complete these steps:

1 Install the Appodeal plugin without the PlayServicesResolver folder.

2. To file
Assets / GooglePlayGames / Editor / m2repository / com / google / games / gpgs-plugin-support / 0.9.50 / gpgs-plugin-support-0.9.50.pom

Add:

<groupId>com.google.android.gms</groupId>
<artifactId>play-services-ads</artifactId>
<version>11.6+</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
   
<groupId>com.google.android.gms</groupId>
<artifactId>play-services-location</artifactId>
<version>11.6+</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

3) Launch the Google Play Games Resolver.

So i suppose we need to manually add the missing dependencies in the .pom file.
Note : I installed the latest version of play games services (0.9.35) and latest appodeal plugin , i guess they released a new one on 18/4/2017.

I have exactly the same problem.

I was having the same issue, I installed the latest Appodeal beta package and it helped a little.
Appodeal-Unity-2.8.32-190318-all-nodex.unitypackage

But now I’m facing a new but similar issue. I’m sorry I don’t know if I should open a new question but since it is related I’d rather keep it here:

If I try Assets > Play Services Resolver > Android Resolver > Force Resolve

I get the following message:

Resolution failed

Failed to fetch the following dependencies:
com.google.android.gms:play-services-clearcut:11.6.2

Now, if I ignore that error and try to build it, using gradle and proguard (Not exporting project), I get the following error:

Temp/gradleOut/appodeal/build/intermediates/manifests/aapt/release/AndroidManifest.xml:77:28-65: AAPT: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'value' with value '@integer/google_play_services_version').

Using:

  • Unity 2017.3 1f1
  • Google Play Game Services Plugin v0.9.50
  • Appodeal 2.8.32-190318-all-nodex

PS I opened an issue on Github as well

I managed to somehow get around this. It’s not ideal solution, but after trying to set multiDex to true, changing gradle version, etc. I found some posts mentioning that this approach is not recommended.

So I reverted to Internal from gradle build and I’ve got different error:

CommandInvokationFailure: Failed to re-package resources.
(...)
Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\com.google.android.gms.play-services-base-11.6.2\res\values\values.xml:33: error: Attribute "imageAspectRatioAdjust" already defined with incompatible format.
Temp\StagingArea\android-libraries\play-services-basement-9.0.0\res\values\values.xml:3: Original attribute defined here.

play-services-basement-9.0.0.arr - I deleted that file from Plugin/Android folder and build was successful - hope this will help someone :slight_smile:
