Hi y’all,
I’m curios the find out if there is any kind of best practices to upgrade the ARDK version, for example from 2.3.2 to 2.5.2. Should I create a new Unity project and import my old files or can I upgrade the SDK in the same project? How do you guys switch to a newer SDK?
Thanks a lot in advance
Tobi
For me the upgrades were relatively simple.
Make a branch on version control/git for backups
(Optional)Delete old ARDK folder
Add new package
Test everything and fix any errors
If working commit to git and merge to main
So I did that from 2.3.2 to 2.5.2 but I get this error message (no idea what to do) :
System.ArgumentException: Cannot be null or empty.

Did you check if your auth key is still valid and put in?
Did you check the setup guide for the latest version?
Yeah I double checked that
I solved the issue.
TLDR: There were two AR Session Managers in the scene.
