Lot of errors and some features not working

[garrco]

I just purchased Gaia 2021 today.  Most of it seems to work?  But several features do not work-- for example, the tutorial shows you how to convert a terrain to low poly.  When I run that, absolutely nothing changes.  Additonally, there are a lot of errors in the console.  (Pasted some below.)  I have followed the instructions pretty carefully for installation and etc...  So, here's my question:

Is this software totally buggy?!

Or am I missing something?

Invalid editor window of type: UnityEditor.FallbackEditorWindow, title: Failed to load

Gaia Pro 2021 is needed to convert terrains to low poly terrains. 

Can you also please tell me what Unity version you are using?

Ahah, ok, thank you.  It doesn't say anything about that in the tutorial or in the app.  But at least I know now. 🙂

Unity Version:  2022.3.5f1

Thank you for your response. I really want to love this tool-- just off to a bit of a bumpy start.

Still hoping for some help.  I am getting this error constantly:

Invalid editor window of type: UnityEditor.FallbackEditorWindow, title: Failed to load
UnityEditor.EditorApplicationLayout:FinalizePlaymodeLayout ()

Seems to happen when I attempt to "Play Maximized."  The game won't launch and I get that error.

This sadly is a known Unity error. 
This can happen with and without Gaia in the project. 
Unity has never fixed this issue.

Well that's a bummer.  Thank you for letting me know though. 🙂

No problem.
