SDK 4.0 with Unity for Windows Store compiler errors

Question

I just tried your new 4.0 build with the Windows Store within Unity support.  Can't get it to compile.  I followed your instructions in the readme.  I uncheck WSAPlayer after clicking App42-Unity3D-SDK-4.0.dll but when I try to compile I get "The type or namespace name 'com' could not be found" in every script that I try to use app42.  If I check WSAPlayer just to see what happens I don't get that error, although I do get other compiler errors.  And I did put the App42-Unity3D-SDK-WinRT-4.0.dll file in the Assets/plugins/metro folder.

Hi Allan,
It seems that something is wrong when setting Windows Store Environment.
I presume you already put both the dlls (i.e. App42-Unity3D-SDK-4.0.dll and App42-Unity3D-SDK-WinRT-4.0.dll) in Assets/plugins and Assets/plugins/metro respectively .
Can you please share the compilation errors you are getting?

---

Yes, I put both dll's into those respective locations.  The compilation error is simply that the namespace 'com' could not be found on any script that has:

using com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp;    
using com.shephertz.app42.paas.sdk.csharp.game;   

It seems to be related to when I uncheck WSAPlayer from App42-Unity3D-SDK-4.0.dll.

Hi Allan,
Can you please share your sample project on support@shephertz.com?

---

I won't be able to email my project.  It's several gigabytes.

---

Have you tried SDK sample and if yes then their also are you getting the same error message ?

---

I tried your sample and it also doesn't work.  Same errors.  I noticed when I opened it up that it's defaulted to the Web Player platform.  I changed the platform to Windows Store and set it to 8.1 Universal.

It compiles fine if I leave it to Web Player.  But that's not going to work if we're trying to compile it for Windows Store.

Hello Allan,

It looks very strange because we have tested from our end and its working fine. Please make sure you have followed all the steps mentioned in the project readme. If you still getting any exception then please share your Unity version and OS details in which you are working on? It will help us to provide better support to you. Also if possible then share the exception screenshots at mailto:support@shephertz.com. It will help us to find the root cause of this issue.

According to Unity you guys need to recompile your plugin because they are not compatible with Unity 5.0.2 and upwards.  These are the instructions they had me follow.  And the current App42 version 4.0 still doesn't work.

Appears to be fixed.  Thanks for your help!

Should this App42 SDK also work on Unity 4.6.X (4.6.7)?
