[SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

I want to build osu! and play it natively (with no wine) on Arch.

As the instruction says, I should recursively clone the repository and then do

nuget restore

but when I do

mono nuget.exe restore

I get this. As the result, I can't build the game with

msbuild

I'm not sure how to fix this.

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

Why don't you use monodevelop as recommended?

Because I have troubles with installing it from AUR

UPDATE: I've just installed MonoDevelop, but it crashes when I try to open osu.sln. If I run MonoDevelop from terminal, it doesn't print any errors.

MonoDevelop doesn't crash anymore thanks to this topic. But now MonoDevelop can't find .NET Core even if I specify the path to dotnet executable.

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

Visual Studio Code detects dotnet, but I still can't build osu! because of 'package downgrade'. Does someone know how to fix this?

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

/usr/bin/dotnet is a symlink to /opt/dotnet/dotnet

Maybe monodevelop doesn't handle symlinks correctly, try the direct path.

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

It helped. Thanks. But I have the same problem as above, 'package downgrade' doesn't let me build osu.

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

I wonder why ">= 1.6.1" and ">= 2.0.0" result in a downgrade... What is that strange logic that tries to downgrade if greater numbers are allowed as well? You can try to set the required version to 2.0.0 in all cases, maybe that works.

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

Ok, the problem with a downgrade is fixed by deleting osu folder and cloning the repository again. Strange, isn't it? I have finally built osu, but it runs without in game text.. It will never end.

Re: [SOLVED] Building osu! using Mono

Should I create an issue on github and mark this topic as solved?
