Unity DOTS not working for latest Unity version

Unity Engine

Hello, i’m pretty new to the whole Unity DOTS thing and am having some issues with trying to use it.

Ive tried creating 4 different fresh projects;
1 Unity 2021.3.2f1 with 3D(URP) template,
1 Unity 2021.3.2f1 with 3D template,
1 Unity 2022.2.0f13 with 3D(URP) template,
1 Unity 2022.2.0f13 with 3D template,

and each time i get the same 5 errors after installing “com.unity.rendering.hybrid” with git URL;

" Library\PackageCache\com.unity.entities@0.50.1-preview.2\Unity.Entities\DefaultWorld.cs(26,25): error CS0117: ‘JobsUtility’ does not contain a definition for ‘ClearSystemIds’ ",

" Library\PackageCache\com.unity.entities@0.50.1-preview.2\Unity.Entities\EntityManager.cs(221,29): error CS0117: ‘JobsUtility’ does not contain a definition for ‘PanicFunction’ ",

" Library\PackageCache\com.unity.entities@0.50.1-preview.2\Unity.Entities\EntityManager.cs(223,29): error CS0117: ‘JobsUtility’ does not contain a definition for ‘PanicFunction’ ",

" Library\PackageCache\com.unity.entities@0.50.1-preview.2\Unity.Entities\SystemState.cs(416,50): error CS0117: ‘JobsUtility’ does not contain a definition for ‘GetSystemIdCellPtr’ ",

" Library\PackageCache\com.unity.entities@0.50.1-preview.2\Unity.Entities\SystemDependencySafetyUtility.cs(64,53): error CS0117: ‘JobsUtility’ does not contain a definition for ‘GetSystemIdMappings’ "

Is this a bug, am i doing anything wrong, or is the current state of unity DOTS not supposed to work with the very latest Unity versions?

Entities 0.50 is compatible only with unity 2020.3 LTS. Entities 0.51 and 1.0 will be compatible with Unity 2021.3 LTS

If you are new, read the docs :wink:
https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.entities@0.50/manual/install_setup.html

Says it right here:
You must use Unity Editor version 2020.3.30 with Entities 0.50.

Actually it’s 2020.3.30+

I’m using Unity 2020.3.8f1 and it’s not working :frowning: when I install the hybrid renderer the following error messages show up on the console:

Have you read previous messages before posting? :slight_smile:

Yes, it says that should work on 2020.3.3 and above, 2020.3.8 it’s not above? :frowning:

It’s .30, not .3
8 < 30

And 0.5 is not 0.50, in case that’s ever a confusion point for future readers.

I use unity 2021.3.21, ans the entities version is 0.51.1, the jobs version is 0.70.0. I also have this error.

… i got the solution Entities installation and setup | Entities | 0.51.1-preview.21
