I got this error message when I imported the plugin for in-app purchases in unity and I got some warning messages before it which are :

  1. Assembly: ‘C:/Users/user/Desktop/location/project name/Assets/Plugins/UnityPurchasing/Bin/Stores.dll’ uses obsolete Unity API (UnityUpgradable)

  2. Assembly: ‘C:/Users/user/Desktop/location/project name/Assets/Plugins/UnityPurchasing/Bin/Editor.dll’ uses obsolete Unity API (UnityUpgradable)

when I press clear the only thing that stays in the editor is :

error CS1704: An assembly with the same name `Editor’ has already been imported. Consider removing one of the references or sign the assembly Library/ScriptAssemblies/Editor.dll (Location of the symbol related to previous error) Assets/Plugins/UnityPurchasing/Bin/Editor.dll (Location of the symbol related to previous error)

Any solutions ?? I really am stuck on this one.

I also got this notification after the error message :

Some scripts have compilation errors which may prevent obsolete API usages to get updated. Obsolete API updating will continue automatically after these errors get fixed.

but I found no errors in my scripts and I am using visual studio the latest version

any advice ???

I have tried deleting the library and temp folders

reimporting everything

renaming the editor.dll

and deleting the editor.dll file in the library, but nothing worked, help is very appreciated.

I have the same Problem, but if I create a new project and import
the purchasing plugin it shows no error message (Xiaomi is imported too).
To reproduce this error I had to delete the UnityChannel folder under Plugins.
So I suggest it has something to do with this.

Sorry for the late response, I deleted some files and reimported them or left them deleted like the library etc… and somehow my issue got solved, in fact, I even published the game to google play, its similar to adventure capitalist, here’s a link :slight_smile:
