Unable to export project to macos

[jonchun]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Download https://github.com/rayxuln/Spine-Runtime-For-Godot-Example
2. Export above project to MacOS using default settings
3. Try to open exported .dmg and execute app inside.
4. Project opens and then immediately exits

The above steps work fine on a non-spine project of mine, so it's definitely the custom spine stuff.

[jonchun]

i can't get it to return any errors or anything either so unsure of how to provide additional troubleshooting information.

Can u attach a log? Usually created by running in command line: godot > log.txt

I'm a little confused as to how I'm supposed to be generating a log. Are you talking about the godot editor's log itself? The Godot engine/editor itself exports fine and I see no errors.

Here's the output of ./godot.osx.tools.x86_64 > log.txt

However, when I try to execute the .app file

it just doesn't open. No logs, no errors. I tried opening the .app file itself from the command line using the open command as documented here https://osxdaily.com/2007/02/01/how-to-launch-gui-applications-from-the-terminal/

and no logs or errors in the terminal are shown either

Did a little bit more testing. Looks like it will launch/run fine after exporting even with a SpineSprite node added to a scene. The problem occurs the second I try to create a SpineAnimationStateDataResource

This will crash:

This is fine:

Did you load the spine json? You need load your spine export first.

Sorry, don’t have access to a pc atm so I’m following from phone.

to clarify, it works when the spine json is NOT loaded. I'm simply proving that there's an issue with SpineSprite loading. If I have anything loaded in there, it crashes on start.

[scottkunkel]

Thank you. Unfortunately I don’t have access to a Mac. I’ll try this on windows to see if I can reproduce there.

great, thanks. I have 2 macbooks and have only tested it on one, so i'll see if I can test it on my other one later.

I did try exporting to HTML5 as well to see what happens and get the following:

This makes me think perhaps my problem is that I'm exporting using a default template and I need to be exporting using a custom one? At least in the WASM export, i see that it thinks it's running "Godot Engine v3.2.2.stable.official" even though I definitely built it using the custom build with the spine module.

I've never actually done this before so very possible I'm just exporting incorrectly and need some guidance on how to do this. Because the project is so new right now it's pretty lacking and might be a good chance for us to come up with something.

[scottkunkel]

Wait, you’re using the default template?

You have to build custom templates with the spine runtime to make spine work and use those. Otherwise the exported godot does not know what to do with the spinesprite.

It should say stable.custom_build or something like that.

Thanks. That must be what I'm missing. I'll do some googling to figure out how to do that. Yes, I was using the default template and didn't realize there was a missing step.

[scottkunkel]

If you built the editor, you can also easily build the template for macOS. Just execute the same build command but add tools=no target=release_debug for debug template and tools=no target=release For prod template This way you can test quickly

HTML template is more involved and required installation of nodejs etc. More info on the godot compile documentation.

Thanks -- I'm following this guide here: https://godotforums.org/discussion/20550/how-to-create-export-templates right now. I'll play around with the HTML stuff perhaps later, but just want to try getting a normal export out first.

I'll close this issue out early because everything is pointing towards just my inexperience with the exporting process here. I'll re-open if I still have issues.
