Mac OS X

Working on visual studio Mac 2022 updated visual studio and now it won’t load any monogamy android projects or create new Monogame project templates. I am looking into the reason and will report back but the error is

Unable to find SDK ‘Microsoft.NET.Runtime.MonoAOTCompiler.Task.net6’

SDK not found
/usr/local/share/dotnet/x64/sdk/6.0.407/Sdks/Microsoft.NET.Runtime.MonoAOTCompiler.Task.net6/Sdk not found. Check that a recent enough .NET SDK is installed and/or increase the version specified in global.json.

I adjusted your title and tags to reflect the issue you are having, as I do not do either of these, hopefully someone with experience and hardware can chime in.

Ok have started investigating. Looks like it’s Microsoft trying to push people on to .net 7 why would we even use it it’s not lts. Further things to test will feed back later tonight

Finally I have the fix if this happens you can’t. open the solution so go into terminal change to your project folder and run dotnet add package Microsoft.NET.Runtime.MonoAOTCompiler.Task --version 6.0.2

And bobs your uncle your solution will now load
