Still incompatible with NETCODE for GameObjects because Newtonsoft 12?? #75

You posted last version as it's using Newtonsoft 13, but...

as soon as you install a plugin using Newtonsoft 13 like NETCODE for GameObjects, and then, downloading and installing your latest version, you can quickly see that this release isn't doing what's promising..

Is there any quick fix for that? I really suppose that when you posted a version with the main change "Update of Newtonsoft to 13" it should be included...

For those who fall into the same hole, I think I found a workarround:

Download last version of GameLift plugin for unity
Install it (so you will se the errors shown on previous post image)
Locate "Package.json" in Packages->Amazon GameLift Plugin for Unity" and edit it with a text editor
change on line 17:

"dependencies": {
    "com.unity.nuget.newtonsoft-json": "2.0.0"
  },

reimport all
the project should not give more errors..

Well, last solution didn't work at all, so I've tried another way with success:

-Go to download the "last release" on oficial last release link

Download the packet named "Source Code"
Open it up with Visual Studio
Compile the solution
Add it to unity with Package Manager, "+" Button -> From Disk
Browse your downloaded package and select package.json

Now you should have GameLift client with the version of Newtonsoft's dependency at 13.0.1 which is compatible with most moder solutions (like AWS, Netcode...)

Hope this helps, and for this package managers, being Amazon the company who is beyond, is so so hard to see how less important is this project for you, is it that difficult to compile correctly the solution before posting it? Or even worse, is anybody trying to help people out there?
