Installing monodevelop in win 10

I think there was a glitch in my installation of unity. Visual studio always pops up when I try to edit! I go to the install monodevelop and it requires the following:

To install this release, you also need to install the following packages:

• .NET Framework 4.5:Download
• GTK# for .NET:Download from mono-project.com

Is it ok to install these for win 10? they mention win 7 and 8 but no 10...

I want to start with the tuts so I can make a great game!!

thanks!

 

They shouldn't cause any problems. Most likely Microsoft and Mono just haven't bothered to update the list of system requirements. If .NET doesn't like a certain version of Windows it won't allow itself to install, but GTK is basically just libraries in a folder somewhere.

My advice though is to simply use Visual Studio. You'll be using it about the same way as you would MonoDevelop.

 

MonoDevelop is 'built-in' to Unity-- all I had to do in order to 'enable' it was choose 'MonoDevelop (built-in)' as the 'External Editor' under Unity preferences. I also uninstalled the incredibly bloated Visual Studio installation, which uses something like 10+ GB of disk space...

Yes, but Unity has it beat if you install support for making Android and iOS packages.

 

Ouch! Time to upgrade my hard drive...

 

i cant use the function control +' in visual studio...how i can use mono?

 

What is this function supposed to do?
