    Hi again wonderful people!

    I'm getting the following output in my output_log.txt for a windows build of my game:

    (Filename: \unitybuild\unity\Runtime\Export\Generated\BaseClass.cpp Line: 1555)

    GLib: Cannot convert message: Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to 'CP1252' is not supported

    Unhandled Exception: System.DllNotFoundException: GAPlugin.dll

    at (wrapper managed-to-native) takeShot.GACalculateResultData (string,takeShot/GF_SHOTDATA,takeShot/GARESULTDATA,bool,bool) <0x00044>
    at takeShot.golfCallBack (string,int,takeShot/GF_SHOTDATA,string,intptr) <0x000dd>
    at (wrapper native-to-managed) takeShot.golfCallBack (intptr,int,takeShot/GF_SHOTDATA,intptr,intptr) <0x0017c>

    I've tried putting the dll in every folder of the project with no luck. Any ideas why my unity executable can't find my dll?

    Thanks as always!

    Can you do a minimal project that basically only has your DLL and some script that tries to use it, and have the problem reproduced on Windows? If you can, send a bug report with that project attached.

    Just as an update, the issue was that we included the extension in the attribute
    [DllImport("myDLL.dll")] instead of

    [DllImport("myDLL")]

    Just as the documentation warns against =).

    So to reiterate, don't include the extension!
