Looks like the current default version of Haxe doesn't work on High Sierra? This is a new issue that you weren't running into in previous builds, right? (That is, you were successfully able to compile games with a previous Stencyl build, with the same OS.)

If you open [Stencyl install]/ext-tools/runtimes/haxe.component, and change the version to 4.2.1 (the last version that was being used), does it work?

[makaydenko]

Yes, I was able to successfully compile game with a previous build of Stencyl on macOS 10.13.6. I've changed Haxe version to 4.2.1 and compiling process has been started.

But I can't compile game with Android target version API 32 in the settings. There is an error:

Code: [Select]

Apps targeting Android 12 and higher are required to specify an explicit value for `android:exported` when the corresponding component has an intent filter defined. See https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/activity-element#exported for details.

For Android target version API 30 it works fine.

And build failed for iOS:

I've changed the Haxe version to 4.2.1 but it didn't help.

P.S. Tested on:
- macOS 10.13.6 High Sierra
- macOS 12.4 Monterey

Thanks, the Android issue is tracked here: https://community.stencyl.com/index.php?issue=2073.0

I'll try to have all three issues fixed soon.

• Status changed from New to Confirmed

[Justin]

I've submitted a fix for macOS High Sierra support to the Haxe repository, so once a new release is made I'll update us to that.
https://github.com/HaxeFoundation/haxe/pull/10778

Until then, I'm rolling us back to 4.2.1. All three issues mentioned here are fixed in 4.1.0-beta3/b11106.

• Status changed from Confirmed to Resolved
