Intellisense not working for Visual Studio Code

This worked for me. Cheers mate

 

You don't have to uninstall anything just follow these steps and everything will be fine:

1. Close the Visual Studio.
2. Open the unity Preferences from the toolbar and select the external tools.
3. Then, External Script Editor chose (Open the file by extension) and instantly changed it to visual studio.
4. Open your code file IntelliSense will work.

 

This worked perfectly for me. Thank you!

 

thank you this works perfectly

 

Hello, I'm a begginer and had the same problem. What has worked for me was to:

1. Install the C# plugin by Microsoft in VSCode.
2. Close VSCode.
3. In Unity, go to Assets>Open C# Project.

After that, it opened the project in VSCode (if you have it configured in your preferences), and Intelisense started helping.

Ex:
Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode. >> should give you a list of keyboard inputs.

Simple, but maybe U don't have C# installed in your VSCode.

Thank you!
This is my first interaction in the Unity Forum!

refer this video... This will damn sure help you!... and good luck

 

In my case, disabling and enabling back C# by OmniSharp extension worked, maybe it'll help somebody.

 

You are such a legend

 

You're not wrong, that was so easy. Thanks!

 

I already have it and it still doesn't work

 

how I got intellisense working on Fedora 37:

firstly, when it wasn't working:
already had VS Code installed from official source (from Microsoft repository). installed dotnet 7, mono-devel and mono-complete, but had no auto-completion and kept getting a message in VS Code that I don't have MSBuild from Mono. useModernNet was false, and my mono path was set.

what i did to get it to work:
sudo dnf remove mono-complete
sudo dnf remove mono-devel (i had both installed and had to remove both individually)
sudo dnf remove dotnet-sdk-7.0

sudo dnf install mono-complete
sudo dnf install dotnet-sdk-6.0
in VS Code, install the older version 1.24.4 of C# (I had the newest version, a 1.25, and clicked the circle/settings to downgrade). this gives you the "use global mono" option, after restarting VS Code, and set it to always. also set your mono path (in terminal, type: "which mono" and use that output), and useModernNet to false.

unfortunately, I had to start a brand new project as the old one still didn't intellisense (haven't consulted my magic 8 ball yet as to why, but who the heck knows, "Regenerate project files" in External Tools didn't seem to work), but a new project worked fine (just give VS Code a minute to get going after start up).

 

Hey there!

If it's not too much trouble, can you test if my package for VSCode helps solve your issue for Fedora 37?
https://github.com/Chizaruu/com.tsk.ide.vscode

It uses the more modern features of Omnisharp, so I'm hoping it helps solve your need to downgrade.

I understand if you don't want to, but if you do and run into any issues, I would appreciate it if you open an issue on the repository.

 

works for me when installing ".NET Framework 4.7.1 Developer Pack"

i use VS Code

 

VS Code intelesense doesn't work in Ubuntu at all.
Also when it works in Windows only your main scripts work, no other libraries or packages.

VS Code is a joke of an IDE for the C# lang.

 

worked for me, thanks!!

 

i spent 1 hour trying to work on auto complete deleting practically everything related to vscode this actually works

 

1) Go to Edit > Preference > External Tools
2) Change the Externa Script Editor to Visual Studio Code

 

Maybe this will work for some that find this thread.

So much life wasted on this. I was having major problems with intellisence when switching projects v 2022.1.2f1. VS Code only seems to work properly if the VS Studio Package (not the VS Code Package) is installed alone.

Sometimes intellisense worked with old cs files but not new ones.

In Assembly-CSharp.csproj there is a problem which Framework is getting referenced. This seems to be set by ProjectCache in the Library. VS Code COM is setting to 4.7.1 or to whatever that is not supported or found by VSCode. You can't just edit Assembly-CSharp.csproj because it is updated constantly.

\Library\PackageCache\come.unity.ide.visualstudio@
\Library\PackageCache\com.unity.ide.vscode@

Assembly-CSharp.csproj:
<TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework> (works)
vs.
<TargetFramework>v4.7.1</TargetFramework> (doesn't work)


1) Make sure Engineering package is uninstalled. You might be able to uninstall the culprit components but untested.
2) Install VS Code package.
3) Install VS Studio package.
4) Uninstall VS Code package.
5) Select VS Code in Preferences. (for whatever reason it sticks even though VS Code package is uninstalled)
6) Select .netstandard in project settings player...
