Unable to Buld Run due to Unity Sprite Packer compiler error

Unity Engine

As the title states, I can’t build and run my game client due to the following error:

    ReflectionTypeLoadException: The classes in the module cannot be loaded.
    System.Reflection.Assembly.GetTypes () (at /Users/builduser/buildslave/monoAndRuntimeClassLibs/build/mcs/class/corlib/System.Reflection/Assembly.cs:371)

The game will play within the editor without problem, however, when trying to build the client for external use, it simply stalls at building with this error. I’ve tried a new blank scene, still the same issue. What is really werid is that it seems to reference locations on the C:\ drive that do not exist. Any suggestions?

Solved.

Solution: Make sure that if you’re importing dll’s, that all dll’s referenced in the imported dll is included.

For example, our project has our own imported dll classes compiled with C# Visual Express 2010 .NET 2.0. One of these classes was referencing another dll for another library. In this case, I just removed that second referenced dll from the Visual Express project because I was only using it for testing, but had I wanted to use it, I would have also had to include that dll in the Unity project.
