AssetNotFoundException: Common/Ma-tDefs/Water/Textures/foam2.jpg (Flipped) (Mipmapped)

I have looked at other assetNotFoundException threads here but I can’t find one similar enough to mine to fix this problem.

It looks like I am missing a file, but I am not sure how to put it into the appropriate directory.

I am trying to follow along with this YouTube tutorial: - YouTube

Things were going well until I tried to make post processed water graphics. My computer can handle PC water because it can run the PCwater test file, but I get this errror when I try to run my own code.

there seems to be a “-” in there (“Common/Ma­-tDefs/Water/Textures/foam2.jpg”));

I don’t see it in the code you posted but I copied and pasted it to notepad++ and there is a - in that line.

Could be the issue
