Stickers: [Android] Asset file doesn't exist. (They actually do!)

[bitmish]

Hello,

After modifying what is necessary and adding my stickers into folder '1'. I renamed the files to 01_A.webp and 02_B.webp etc.

I also modified this in the contents.json. I am receiving the following error when opening the app:

_Error: Asset file doesn't exist. pack: TheMishPack, sticker: 01_A.webp
See logcat for stack trace_

I opened the .apk in Android Studio and verified that the images do exist within the assets folder. Any ideas why this is?

Hey @bitmish, could you please post your contents.json here?
And probably a screenshot of your file structure?
We will be able to solve this issue a lot quicker then :)

I just went through. The issue was that I modified the identifier in the
contents so it was looking up the wrong folder.

Thanks for your prompt response!

Hey, i have the same issue. What should i do to resolve the issue. can you post the solution in detail.

Can’t remember exactly, but, the “identifier” in contents.json should match
the folder name which the assets (images) are in. If you didn’t change the
folder name, keep identifier as it was before.
