Having issues opening the demo project? Try clearing the cache
Sometimes, after installing the Popul8 Express and importing the DemoExpress.pp8 project, the imported project might not launch properly after double-clicking, or certain features may not behave as expected.
In such cases, clearing the project cache usually resolves the issue.
Steps to clear the cache:
- Close the Popul8 Demo application
- Navigate to the project directory and locate the Cache folder. The demo project cache you will find here:<place-where-you-extracted-file>/didimo-assets-XX/Popul8AppData/<random-numbers>/Cache
- Delete all files and folders inside the Cache folder(Do not delete any other folders or files)
- Reopen Popul8 Demo application
- Open the DemoExpress project again
Please note:
Clearing the cache will trigger a rebuild of the assets, which may take some time on the next launch, but you do not need to re-import the project.
