Issue Importing Free Trial

[McWoodey]

For a preface - I am fairly new to the Unity scene.

When trying to import Nova for use in my project, I keep getting the following error:

Assets\Nova\Scripts\Internal\InternalScript_49.cs(323,37): error CS0029: Cannot implicitly convert type 'Unity.Collections.NativeParallelHashMap<Nova.InternalNamespace_0.InternalNamespace_2.InternalType_131, Nova.InternalNamespace_0.InternalNamespace_8.InternalType_217>' to 'Unity.Collections.NativeHashMap<Nova.InternalNamespace_0.InternalNamespace_2.InternalType_131, Nova.InternalNamespace_0.InternalNamespace_8.InternalType_217>'

I've tried re-downloading and importing again, and the package manager seems to realize that there's an update that can occur:

but clicking yes doesn't seem to change anything. Choosing no though gets me a different error about Interactable not containing a definition for "UIBlock", and then tells me there's nothing to import.

More than a little confused on this.

Thanks!

Sorry to hear you're running into issues!

Which version of Unity are you using?

[McWoodey]

No worries, probably user error honestly. 2021.3.11f1

It looks like Unity renamed a type in the Collections package as of Collections version 1.3.0. So, assuming you're on Collections 1.3.0 or later (1.4.0 is the latest version of the package), what's happening is the API update dialog you're seeing when you import Nova is only updating those three scripts, but it isn't properly updating the precompiled .dll that comes as part of the Nova - Free Trial. This leads to a type mismatch, which is the error you're seeing. So not user error :)

Thank you for bringing this to our attention! We're working on a fix to publish promptly, but it typically takes the asset store a few business days to approve an asset update.

In the meantime to unblock yourself and get the Nova - Free Trial working in your project, perhaps the easiest option is to do the following:

1. Delete the Nova - Free Trial from your project (i.e. delete the Assets\Nova folder)
2. Open the Package Manager in Unity (Window -> Package Manager)
3. Set the filter to Packages: In Project
4. Find Collections in the list of packages and click the drop down arrow
5. The recommended package version for the version of Unity you're using is 1.2.4, so select that from the list of packages versions
6. Click the Update to 1.2.4 button in the bottom, right corner of the Package Manager window
7. Set the Package Manager filter to Packages: My Assets
8. Import the Nova - Free Trial again

You may see some errors from Unity.Burst - probably best to restart Unity just to be safe (one of the errors from Unity.Burst might suggest the same thing).

Once you re-open Unity, you shouldn't see any more errors from Nova/Burst/Collections and can start using the free trial.
