Post-processing errors in NeedleEngine 4.3.0

Post-processing errors in NeedleEngine 4.3.0

If the GlobalVolume component is alive, the build only shows a black page.

NE 4.3.0 seems to automatically set up to 4.3.0 when a new project is received.

Or when creating a new scene…

I assume it’s version 4.3.0 that’s changed, is there any expected issues?

Hello June,

It seems you’re experiencing issues with the GlobalVolume component in Needle Engine 4.3.0, resulting in a black page during build. Here are some steps and considerations to troubleshoot and possibly resolve the issue:

  1. Check Post-Processing Setup: Ensure that your GlobalVolume component and any associated post-processing effects are properly set up. If post-processing is not configured correctly, it can lead to rendering issues.

  2. Disable Post-Processing Temporarily: As a troubleshooting step, try disabling the post-processing effects to see if the scene renders correctly without them. You can do this by checking the configuration in the component settings.

  3. Update Your Packages: Ensure that all necessary packages and dependencies are up-to-date. Using an outdated version may contribute to conflicts and errors. Running npm update in your terminal may help.

  4. Check Console Errors: Open the developer console in your browser (F12 or Ctrl + Shift + I) and check for any error messages. This can provide insights into what might be going wrong.

  5. Restart Local Dev Server: If you just updated Needle Engine or made significant changes, restarting the local development server might resolve issues stemming from stale caches or uninitialized components.

  6. Check Scene and Component Initialization: Ensure that all components in your scene are correctly initialized before they are executed. Some lifecycle events might be mismanaged, leading to render issues.

  7. Documentation Review: Review the documentation or changelog for version 4.3.0 for any notes on breaking changes or specific requirements regarding GlobalVolume or post-processing effects.

If the problem persists or if you have specific error messages, please share them for further assistance.

Hi, could you share the exact error message?

Your screenshot shows 4.2.5 - the version shown there is the one currently installed in your web project. When you install Needle Engine 4.3.0 for Unity you should get Needle Engine 4.3 for the web. I will double check.

I don’t seem to be able to reproduce any error regarding the postprocessing / volume component. Please share your error message.

Right now I am using NeedlEngine 4.2.5, but when I create a new scene (needle project) it is set to 4.3.0 instead of NE 4.2.5.

As a test, when I create a new project with [Generate Vite], it automatically selects the NE 4.3.0 version.

The only difference is between NE 4.3.0 and 4.2.5, and only in 4.3.0 I get a black page if PostProcessing (Volume Componenet) is alive.

I didn’t get any error logs, so maybe there is a similar situation?

Can you try installing 4.2.6? It should be fixed there.
