Hi, Anaryx. I’ve been having this problem over and over again. I’ve followed the instructions and also tried to find a solution using AI. Please help 🙏
Could you please click View Log and scroll up a little? The current screenshot only shows the summary (Resource compilation failed). The actual file causing the error is usually shown a few lines above.
Please send a screenshot of the log from about 20–30 lines above the error or copy the full build log. That will tell me exactly which resource is failing.

Thank you for the log. The error has changed, which means the previous missing ic_launcher_foreground issue is no longer the main problem.
The current error indicates that Android failed while compiling the app resources. I also noticed that several icon files are being skipped because they are detected as hidden, and there is also an error related to the app_name string resource. Either of these can cause the build to fail.
To identify the exact cause, could you please send me:
The exact App Name you entered in AG APK Builder.
The contents of the file: resources/base_module/app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml
With those, I can determine exactly which resource is causing the compilation failure and help you resolve it.
with pleasure, that's because the size in the game is probably still 512x512 I suggest changing the game size in the rpg maker to 1280x720, but sometimes there is still a little black on the edges but, for now maybe that's all I can help with the screen size, because ag apk builder doesn't have an automatic full screen feature yet, for the next update I will add the full screen feature in ag apk builder v2.0

Hello again. This error occurs because your PC is running out of RAM during the build process. If you have more than 8GB of RAM, you can download the JVM fix file and adjust the 8GB setting to match your PC's specifications. If your PC has 8GB of RAM or less, you should close some applications to allow the APK build to proceed without interruption.
. But why is the game’s screen size so small?
