Title: objects rendered as pink boxes after 2-3 retry of game- Windows Phone 8
Post by: astro on November 25, 2013, 01:57:09 pm: Hello,
I am new in unity development and facing the below issue.
I am porting an existing android project to windows phone 8 and this issue is coming in the windows build. As seen in the attached screen shot all cars in the game are turning into pink boxes after 2-3 retry of a game level. I am using Unity 4.3 and 2D toolkit 2.3.0.

Is this a known issue on this platform? Please help..

The Windows Phone 8 platform behaves very differently to others, and its got some interesting bugs specific to it in Unity. Pink implies the shader/material hasn't loaded properly - you can debug.log the values to try and narrow this down.

I am facing exactly the same issue in tk 2d. can you please provide a solution ?
It is specifically occuring on Windows Platform. I am running on surface tablet 1 and Lumia 830 which have enough memory for the game. So its not a memory issue. This looks like shader issue.

Pink implies the shader/material hasn't loaded properly. You will need to find out why it hasn't done that with some debug code.

Post by: Waqas Anwar on April 01, 2015, 07:17:16 am: Yes I tried debugging the code. but I am not getting any warning. I upgraded my project to tk2d 2.5 but still the same issue. Are these shaders supported on windows platform ?
