Rand. There are many threads about this I think on these forums.

#6

still no luck, its frustrating trying to get this to work, is reverting back to cocos creator 1.6.1 a bad thing? because my application worked perfectly before the update

Let me ask our engineering team to look at this thread.

Hi @freshprince,

I had the same problem and disabling some unused physic modules solved the problem:

Of course if your project uses physics it won’t solve your problem.

Best regards,

i reverted back to 1.6.1 and my project works perfectly again, i thought updating wouldnot have been so much trouble but it started to frustrate me, thanks for the solution though, this will help many others with this problem hopefully

#11

You’re welcome! Of course it’s just a workaround, the dev team has to fix this issue, but fortunately I can relese the next update of my game.

It is a bug about Android Studio that not support path which is longer than 256 characters. Place your project just in C:/Coco2dxProject will solve this problem. We have added some warning in 1.10 to avoid frustration
