QUESTION: VSCode IntelliSense not working

I'm on Linux in case that differs the settings but I was going to test a script when I noticed that the "IntelliSense" was not working in VSCode, I saw other forms that made me go into prefrencenses -> Editor -> and select VSCode from there but that hasn't seemed to do anything, (unless I need to reboot?)

My version of VSCode: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visual-studio-code-bin

.NET Version: 6.0.102

 

Not sure how much applies to your OS, but here's my

#include <stdblurb.h>

file:

This may help you with intellisense and possibly other Visual Studio integration problems:

Sometimes the fix is as simple as doing Assets -> Open C# Project from Unity. Other times it requires more.

Other times it requires you also nuke the userprefs and .vsconfig and other crufty low-value high-hassle files that Visual Studio tends to slowly damage over time, then try the above trick.

Barring all that, move on to other ideas:

Also, try update the VSCode package inside of Unity: Window -> Package Manager -> Search for Visual Studio Code Editor -> Press the Update button

Check omnisharp-vscode for latest setup requirements.

Right now, for v1.25.0 from 21 May 2022, you need to:

• Install a recent version of mono (current stable is 6.12.0.182 but 6.12.0.174 also worked for me)
• Set

  omnisharp.useModernNet

  to

  false

  in VSCode's settings
• Restart VScode after making the settings change

 

Thanks for the responses, I got an output in the VSCode terminal and got this error: "
[warn]: OmniSharp.MSBuild.ProjectManager
Failed to load project file '/home/myusername/PROJECTS/My project/Assembly-CSharp.csproj'.
/home/myusername/PROJECTS/My project/Assembly-CSharp.csproj
/usr/share/dotnet/sdk/6.0.102/Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(1217,5): Error: This project targets .NET version that requires reference assemblies that are not installed (e.g. .NET Framework). The most common solution is to make sure Mono is fully updated on your machine (https://mono-project.com/download/) and that you are running the .NET Framework build of OmniSharp (e.g. 'omnisharp.useModernNet': false in C# Extension for VS Code)." I'm going to have to wait until my Mono package has a new update for 6.12.0.182.

 

Got it fixed, I was able to "Set omnisharp.useModernNet to false in VSCode's settings" and install msbuild, thanks for the help everyone

 

I still can't get it to work, any ideas?

 

Nvm, my problem was that the vsc insiders executable was named code-insiders, and unity only works with an executable called code, so I created a symbolic link and that solved it

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/code-insiders /usr/bin/code
