Using Ads gets me a "Resources were not found" about play-games-plugin-for-unity HOT 7 CLOSED

I was under the impression this plugin didn't support ads. May I ask how you enable them? I assume you're using another plugin for this, correct? If so, which one, or did you implement them yourself?

Well the library it downloads and puts in the Plugins/Android directory is google-play-services_lib, which is the now official library for displaying ads. So I have an Activity in Java extending UnityPlayerActivity, and creating the AdView.
You can't use this plugin AND the AdMob SDK, because the AdMob SDK and google-play-services_lib conflict. AdMob SDK won't be accepted this summer for submissions.

I see, I just tried adding ads myself, using this plugin: https://github.com/nabrozidhs/unity_admob_android
I indeed also got the same error in my logcat. Though ads are working perfectly (though weren't clickable at first, yet quick google fixed that too.) Is it something to be worried about?

Somehow, it depends on your target. From what I've gathered, the resources are used to display notifications to users with outdated or inexistant installation of Google Play Services. If the resources can't be found in this situation, the ad will simply not display.

That is strange though. I have the latest version of everything on my
Nexus 4. I get those error in the logcat every time the ad refreshes, but
ads have and continue to be displayed perfectly fine.

Yes, because the resources seem to not be needed when everything is up to date on the phone. The message in that case must just be a check I suppose. The resources not found message is referring to the library resources, which are included in it, not to some resources on the phone.

I do have a Javascript error on the Nexus 5 though: it can't find a style for display an horizontal smart banner in landscape, so it displays it not styled (in my case bottom left whereas I asked for bottom without precision - on other devices it fills up the width). But I'm not sure it's related to the resources not being found issue, maybe they just don't have a style for this size.

Ok, that seems to make sense to me. Thanks.
