Game kit 3d,Hame kit 3d on unity 2019 error

Hi
This is my first time using Unity and am struggling to just get off the ground.
I have downloaded and installed the Game Kit 3d, but when I do, I get a message saying there are dependencies that need upgrading, so I click upgrade, and then get this error:
Library/PackageCache/com.unity.textmeshpro@3.0.0-preview.14/Scripts/Runtime/TMP_DefaultControls.cs(191,22): error CS1061: ‘RectMask2D’ does not contain a definition for ‘padding’ and no accessible extension method ‘padding’ accepting a first argument of type ‘RectMask2D’ could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I have tried this twice now. When I imported the game kit last time, I could open level1, (but according to the tutorial there should be a toolkit menu - this doesnt appear) . I tried to create a new scene, and then I get an empty window with nothing in the hierarchy, unlike in the demo.

Im on a mac, using catalina, and latest Unity version.

Any help please?

thanks!

@Appzoola I had the same exact issue. What I did was go into unity, open “Window” at the top of the screen, go into “Package Manager” and clicked on the TextMeshPro bar and downgraded it to version 2.1.1. This solved the issue for me.

Thanks. When I went to package manager, and selected TextMesh Pro and choose all versions then selected upgrade to 2.1.1 (latest is 3,0), the error can now be cleared

I’m having this same issue, but the only version I have installed is 3.0.1. In the “Package Manager”, I see a button at the bottom, but it’s disabled and says “Up to date”. When I click the drop-down for versions for TextMeshPro, the only version that appears is 3.0.1.

How can I download/install an older/newer/working version? (I don’t see it in the Asset Store, I think because it’s managed by Unity now). Alternatively, is it an open source project where I could just contribute a fix for the issue?

When you expand the TextMeshPro package in the Package Manager, you should see an option to “See all versions.” Click on that and you should see everything from 2.1.1 all the way back to 1.0.21

Downgrading to TextMeshPro 2.1.1 worked for me. Thanks for the tip.
