When I try to create an Android APK, I get this message.
What am I doing wrong ?
I use w11

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

It seems like it can't find a file, try reading through the words and taking a little time to digest the meanings.

I solved it but I have another problem.

When I try to compile for the apk to download all the tools with the app "the question" I get failure.

I cannot download the tools in the rapt folder,

the one that weighs 2.5 gb.

Are you using a VPN? Some will cause failures here.

I changed the DNS, and it worked.

Hi Wills747 !

I have used some of your SDKs to create android ports for some games and they work great. Thank you very much for your work.

I am looking to create a port for version 8.3.6 and a rather old version 7.3.5. Do you have SDKs for these versions?

I will donate to you, I promise!

8.3.6 should be 8.3.7 compatible?
7.3.5 I still have somewhere, I've modified rapt to still work after bintray shut down but it's otherwise stock.

Haven't tried it yet but let me see if it works.

I know this is quite old version, very few games still support it. But my customers really need games of this version. Do i have any test version of 7.3.5?

Every game that I do with that old of an SDK gets an upgrade

It works pretty well. Thanks a lot.
Btw, I just donated to you, as promised.
