i keep getting files not found after installing the apk onto my android phone and loading the game. the File path is AlienA/AlienAWalk/AilienWalk1.png ive double checked the path and it is all correct. All works fine in AppGameKit and when testing using the broadcast on my phone. i do remember having this issue before but cant remember how i fixed it. this is the path copied right from my pc "media\AlienA\ALienAWalk\AlienAWalk1.png"

i can't remember for sure but aren't filenames case sensitive on mobile? IE:
≠


desktops dont much care about case (WIN, at least).

make them match precisely, IIRC (or make them all lower). i dunno if you already are since you didn't provide code, just pathname?

also, if you haven't used SetFolder() or the like, you can skip this part "media\"

btw, the part of the path: "ALienAWalk" was what caused my suspicion. ie, are you sure it's ALien vs Alien in your code? if you copy/pasted, it should match but again, since no code, just making sure.

No your right the L was a mistake but it's strange because I used the option in agk studio to copy the path name

Not sure what windows version your using but copying as plain text is something ive noted more recently as a requirement for many programs and
windows 11 has several paste options that may be the issue
