Hello @bold harbor

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:37 PM

#

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:38 PM

#

install the .net core sdk

#

MAKE SURE

#

YOU DON'T install

#

.net 6.0

#

#

#

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:38 PM

#

#

2021.3.1f1

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

#

#

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet

Microsoft

Official .NET downloads for Linux, macOS, and Windows. .NET is a free, cross-platform, open-source developer platform for building many different types of applications.

#

go here, install .net 5.0

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:39 PM

#

pure sable go here, install .net 5.0

#

i just dont know what version

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

okay

#

do this

#

using windows?

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

yes

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:40 PM

#

go to start menu/settings, type add or remove programs, and in the search for programs options, type .net

#

#

like so

#

as you can see my .net sdk is 5.0

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:43 PM

#

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:44 PM

#

okay so you 6.0 sdk, which doesn't work with unity

#

uninstall it and install the 5.0 version

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:45 PM

#

what about the other versions that you see?

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:45 PM

#

see i'd think it's safer if you get rid of them, in case of version conflicts

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

ill remove all of them, even net framework

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:46 PM

#

yeah

#

we can reinstall em if needed, dw

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:50 PM

#

bro it taking too long to uninstall these

#

do i have to uninstall them before i download NET 5.0

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:55 PM

#

you don't need to, but it will make things a lot easier

#

because then you don't have to ask vs code which version it needs everytime

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:56 PM

#

ok just give me 2 mins them i'll download net 5.0

pure sable May 4, 2022, 11:56 PM

#

okay

bold harbor May 4, 2022, 11:59 PM

#

i just need to know why cant i have NET Core SDK 6.0?

#

nvm then

#

alright imma download 6.0

pure sable May 5, 2022, 12:01 AM

#

i found a official site somewhere

#

saying unity and some other apps don't support .net 6.0

#

okay this is weird

#

i'm looking at forums and some are saying unity does plan to work with .net 6.0

#

but honestly and i'm not sure, and i'm just sharing my setup, which worked

#

so if you want to try with 6.0 go ahead, i'm not sure i can help if there are any errors is all

bold harbor May 5, 2022, 12:04 AM

#

Yo

#

I uhhh

#

I gotta go sleep

#

I'll continue tomorrow

pure sable May 5, 2022, 12:04 AM

#

it's okay, just let me outline a few steps you'll see tmrw

bold harbor May 5, 2022, 12:04 AM

#

I'm sorry btw

#

For wasting your time helping me

pure sable May 5, 2022, 12:05 AM

#

basically, install 5.0 sdk, then install 4.7.1 dev pack and then some more config

#

nws, i'm just happy someone doesn't have to go through the same pain i did

#

trying to set this up

bold harbor May 5, 2022, 12:06 AM

#

Yeah I went through a lot of pain for months

#

Searching on yt

#

Videos that have wasted my time

pure sable May 5, 2022, 12:06 AM

#

#

forums are probably a better bet

bold harbor May 5, 2022, 12:06 AM
