Multiplayer Playmode Compilation Error [Animancer Pro Version: 8.0.1]

• Animancer Version Number: 8.0.1
• Animancer Pro
• Unity Version: 2023.2.20f1

• Platform: Windows 10

  When we create a new virtual player in Multiplayer Play Mode, VM instance fails to launch due to animancer error down below. Reinstalling animancer pro doesnt solve the issue

That sounds like either a Unity bug or something else like an anti virus program interfering with it because Animancer doesn't do anything with that file, it's just used by Unity to control how it compiles Animancer's scripts.

It's a plain text file so opening it with notepad and re-saving it might do something (might need to modify -> save -> return to Unity -> undo -> save to make sure it notices the file is different). Or even just Right Clicking and Reimporting it might help.

Has this issue been resolved or are you still receiving that error?

I've tried what u said, unfortunately didnt solve the problem Multiplayer Play Mode Version: 0.6.0

I still have no idea what could be causing the issue, but I can think of a few other things to try:

• Remove Animancer and update to v8.0.2 which I just released on the weekend.
• Try Unity 6 or 2022.3 LTS.
• Make a post in the Multiplayer section of Unity Discussions in case anyone else has run into a similar issue.
• Report a Unity Bug via the Help menu. Putting the Bug Report Case Number in your discussions post can sometimes help get it looked at faster.
