Unity 4.6.1 UI Text causes crash on PC and web builds
Edit: I think i found the problem. The graphics.Aseet settings didn't include the UI font shaders. :(
When i build my game with a Unity UI text it crashes when the scene loads.
Here's a vanilla project that causes it to crash https://www.dropbox.com/s/s0c9rnjfs0zcxwg/UITExtCrash.zip?dl=0
here is the crash log
any ideas what causes it ? is there a workaround?
here is the web build for the crashing build https://build.cloud.unity3d.com/distro/install?id=bk-S_tXT_

========== END OF STACKTRACE ===========
It sounds like a unity problem. I don't know how you could make it work. Are you on unity 4.6.0 or 4.6.1?
4.6.1f1 posted a bug report (no idea if these are handled or not) but i would like to know if there is some workaround.
I don't have 4.6.1 so maybe it is a bug in that unity build
Looks like a file problem. it says filename not avalable
that seems irrelevant - i assume it's the filename of the code that unity was complied it.
Couple of questions,
if you disable the Text does it stop it crashing?
If you disable the Canvas does it stop crashing?
If you create a new scene as your 1st scene with text on and then transition to the problem scene does it still crash.
Without further details of your scene setup it's a little hard to diagnose
still crashes.
Here's a vanilla project that causes it to crash https://www.dropbox.com/s/s0c9rnjfs0zcxwg/UITExtCrash.zip?dl=0
Just as a scene it was or, when i also imported my original project's settings is when it started crashing. maybe it's something with the quality settings.

As a workaround you can create a new material, set its shader to UI/Default font and change UI.Text Text/Material from none to the one you've created
those shaders weren't included - that was the problem. they come default with 4.6 but a plugin i imported ovverrode the grapics settings . once these were back - the problem was solved.

This could have been a problem in the beta with fonts. If you try it again now it should be fixed.
