[Resolved] GPGS: gameNetwork.init does nothing... with an error: Google Play services resources not found

Naomi,

Make sure you read to the bottom of my post on what I found about the “Google Play Resources Not Found” message, it is a false positive with the gpsu class file and has nothing to do with what you are currently trying to do so just ignore that and focus on getting everything hooked up and working (and “always” make sure you uninstall your app before testing) until such time that you have it actually connecting to the network.

“First and foremost you can ignore the Google Play Resources Not Found message it is a false positive and is being caused by com.google.android.gms.common.GooglePlayServicesUtil.class which is a error in google itself and has nothing to do with corona and will not stop you from proceeding with GPGS so don’t worry about that just make sure it tests and works correctly the rest can be ignored.”

Christopher, thank you so much.

I followed your instruction (steps 1 through 6)  carefully, and the changes I made to the sample project are:

  1.  In build.settings, I changed GPGS_ID to that of my app and commented out versionCode & versionName (I add them when I build APK).

  2.  In config.lua, I added the key and commented out the notification block (because I haven’t set things up for notification with my project.)

  3.  In main.lua, I changed line 7 where I added my leaderboard ID, then changed line 119 where I added my achievement ID.

  4.  Renamed the folder to the name of my app.

I built the APK using the keystore and package name that match properly.

I uninstalled my app from my test device and then installed the new APK.

And it still gives me the very same error when I launch the app.  See the second to last line (in bold letters) in the LAUNCH LOG below.  Next, I cleared the log and tapped on Login button, and it gave me fatal error.  See the LOGIN LOG.  I haven’t read your code, so I don’t know why I get fatal error while you don’t.  Perhaps there are some other items that need modification so that the sample project would work with my keystore, package name and Googe Play Console setup?

At this point, I’m wondering if the alpha APK already uploaded to Google Play (even though it is not published) can have some effect when testing locally?  Perhaps alpha APK is faulty (because it was just a placeholder for me), and that’s the root of all problem?  I don’t know.  Just a wild guess and probably not the case, but I’m too bewildered…

Naomi

Edit:  WAIT.  IT SAYS “Application ID (GPGS_ID) must be a numeric value” in LOGIN LOG.  Let me check.  And, OMG, I didn’t save the build.settings file before building the APK (how embarrassing).  Let me post back as soon as I test this thing.

#63

And it WORKED!

Christopher, tapping on your Login button brought up the GPGS’s login thing, instead of failing.

I still get “The Google Play services resources were not found” error upon launch, but it doesn’t seem to cause login issue.  It brings up popup window, showing my pix and the app’s icon, saying myapp would like to: know my basic profile info, etc.

Now that I know Google Play side of settings are working, I’ll look at your sample code and work out how mine should be.

Thanks again!

Naomi

#64

Yeah ignore the google error it means nothing and imagine google will fix it in next ask update :slight_smile:

Hopefully I made the sample close to what your are doing so should be easy to find and resolve but was still sleeping when I write it lol

#65

Yes, thank you, Christopher.

My Login button was calling gameNetwork.init( “google”, initCallback ), and then only when there was no error (i.e., only when event.isError wasn’t true), it was going to call gameNetwork.request(“login”, { userInitiated = true, listener = loadLocalUser }).

However, with yours, even when the login fails at launch, you go ahead and request login.

That was the difference.

I changed my test project (which I posted earlier in page 1) so that tapping on Sign In won’t call gameNetwork.init but instead call gameNetwork.request for login.  And it worked just like yours.

Edit:  I thought about it – and I guess I was mistaken to think init failed.  Login failed at launch because it was not userInitiated.  But I simply thought init failed because of the “Google Play services resources not found” error.  Ugh.

#66

Yeah, with the exception of Apple which you need to call gamNetwork.init on application start (as they shut it down) you need to call .init for google when you app launches. 

The gameNetwork.request for login returns “nil” if successful and false if there is an actual error which was confusing for me as I expect it to return true if everything worked lol…

This isn’t so much an error with corona as it is an error with the “plugin” that you are using for google network.

I am glad you got everything sorted out, I was actually going to write conditional statements for apple/google as there is a difference on how you call things but wasn’t sure if you were using game center.

#67

Thank you, Christopher.  Your explanation makes sense.  

Really good to know what to expect from gameNetwork.request – definitely will help me coding this thing right.

Thanks again!!

#68

No problem :) 

#69

Since this thread became a two-page thing before the issue was sorted, I added the solution in the first post that started this thread (so that, in case someone stumbles across this thing, it’s easier to get to the bottom of it right away.)

Cheers,

Naomi
