Location of UnityEngine.dll for Visual Studio reference

Unity Engine
1

I would like to use Visual Studio 2005 for my scripting work with Unity (I need intellisense), can anyone tell me the location of the dll that I need to reference? From another thread it sounds like what I’m looking for is UnityEngine.dll, but perhaps its changed in 2.0.

Thanks in advance.

/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/UnityEngine.dll

sorry for sounding like such a pc user but I’m not sure how to get there, if I type UnityEngine.dll in finder, it can’t be found.

I have a “Unity” folder but it does not contain a Contents folder.

I should point out I’m using the Trial version but I would think the main engine dll would still be included, or perhaps not?

If you right-click an application in Mac OS X there is an entry called “Show Package Contents”.

Wow, thanks for the tip, because I got the mac with their famous one button mouse I had no idea there was other functions that you can access with right clicking.

I was able to find the DLL, thanks gain.

Cheers

just a small ‘one button mouse’ tip – if you hold down Option, Control or Command … it affects what happens when you click (performs a Left, Right, Middle style differentiation)

Anyone know where the .DLL files are on PC?

My solution can’t find UnityEditor, UnityEditor.iOS.Extensions.Xcode, UnityEngine, UnityEngineUI.

Such necro!

the .dlls are in [UnityInstallFolder]/Editor/Data/Managed
