How to download MonoDevelop and use it in unity?
I'm using Unity 2018.1.1f1 (64-bit) and it seems that MonoDevelop hasn't been installed !!
I downloaded MonoDevelop form This website but I don't know what to do after installing it, I can't find any shortcuts !!
Also...How can I use it in unity?
I know my questions are silly, but I'm still a beginner :›
Thank you
Here is a blog post explaining why Unity dropped $$anonymous$$onodevelop
[...] Visual Studio 2017 Community [...] supports the latest C# features and C# debugging on the new .NET 4.6 scripting runtime. $$anonymous$$onoDevelop-Unity 5.9.6 will be removed from the Unity 2018.1 Windows installer, as it does not support these features.
UPDATE (Jan 2021)
Since Unity 2019.2x release, Unity has made it impossible for us to use MonoDevelop-Unity as IDE (with autocompletion & context recognition) by removing the script runtime .NET 3.5 from the editor for all the newer releases.
Unfortunately Unity has stopped supporting Monodevelop-Unity on 2018.1.0 release. However you can still use Monodevelop-Unity by downloading the Unity Installer of version 2017.4.7 from this link: https://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive , choosing custom install and selecting to install only Monodevelop. After it's installed in your PC, you can select it as the script editor in any version of Unity.
Thanks a bunch for that solution VicenteSenger. I was about to go back to older version of Unity.
Thanks @VicenteSenger. Too bad Unity stopped supporting $$anonymous$$onoDevelop. ?? It seems very non-programmer friendly. Glad for this solution until I'm familiar enough to go with a Big Boy tool.
I Tried doing this but if i go to custom install it wont show mono develop?
Hi,
You can use Microsoft Visual Studio instead of MonoDevelop. Visual Studio is Better than MonoDevelop in my Opinion. Here is the Link to Download Visual Studio Link: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
@divanshum - Pls don't think I'm being combative, but what makes $$anonymous$$VS better than $$anonymous$$onoDevelop? I'm just an artist so I have no idea. Thx.
Visual Studio only has a 30 day trial.
You can use Community version which is nearly the same and is free forever.
Note: you need Professional licence for commercial projects
I never had the option to pick. It just installed whatever version it wanted to. Should I uninstall Visual Studio and re-install as a standalone so I can choose "Community Version" ins$$anonymous$$d?
Ended up using Dreamweaver ins$$anonymous$$d since I have a subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud.
After 30 days trial just create microsoft account and singup visual studio is totally free
I downloaded visual studio twice in different time and once it was paid and once it was free. I didnt understand why.
Hi,
MonoDevelop should always install as part of the default installation so that's a little worrying. However, if you've managed to get it downloaded you can tell Unity which script editor to use by navigating to: Edit > Preferences > External Tools
You can then naviate to the executable of your prefered script editor.
old post but for news: Select edit with extension from there. It will open with monodevelop if you opening .cs files with monodevelop in windows
