Unity Error : Mounting archive file system for lightmap snapshot failed!
Hey folks,
in all the scenes our design guy baked in lighting I get the error "Mounting archive file system for lightmap snapshot failed!"
He did it at his place, everything was working, he pushed everything to GIT, I pulled it, now I am getting the error.
There is a directory per scene which contains lightmap data e.g. folder structure
/Assets/Scenes/Menu.unity
/Assets/Scenes/Menu/LightmapSnapshot.asset
/Assets/Scenes/Menu/Lightmap-0_comp_dir.exr
/Assets/Scenes/Menu/Lightmap-0_comp_light.exr
... and so on.
So the data is there, Unity just can't seem to make anything out of it.
Anybody knows something about this? Google is of no help.
Thx
Hi lochmann,
We're having the exact same problem. Have you found a solution?
I am having this same issue after a crash......I eventually uninstalled, reinstalled and loaded my project and I get this....not to mention that all of my scripts have been disconnected. Any solutions to the light map?

Hello
I just solved this problem on my system. You have to have the full I/O control on your project files. You have to place your projects somewhere in your file system, where you have the full access.
I just ran Unity as an administrator.
