Sorry, I assumed the I don't use it was a I won't use it.

Good luck. Hopefully Lucas or I provided a solution.

Well I tried it like you suggested.
Uninstalled and clean reinstalled Unity
Created a new empty project and opened in Unity
Closed Unity
Copied the DFU source files into the new project folder w/ overwrite files.
Opened the project in Unity again and still getting the same issue with the Localization namespace in the console
Opened the Startup scene anyway and the ModManager component shows it can't load the script either (probably due to the other namespace errors)
I'm wondering if I'm missing a .NET component or need to use a different version of Unity.
I'm using the right source files aren't I? It's "daggerfall-unity-0.12.2-beta.zip" from the Releases page and listed as "Source code (zip)"
I'm also using the Hub as well to create new Unity projects.
I guess I'll try it on another computer unless anyone has any other suggestions.

Nope. Go to the Github page (https://github.com/interkarma/daggerfall-unity) and click the green Code button. Click Download as Zip. This is the updated trunk of Daggerfall Unity, the most recent version.

These should both work. But it might be worth giving it a shot.

Edit: as long as he is downloading the source code mind you, and not the build.

False alarm guys. I re-downloaded the file when I went to try it on another computer and found that I was missing several files before for some reason. Everything is working fine now. Thanks for trying!
Sorry about wasting your time guys!

No problem. We're glad you found the solution. The more modders working on DFU, the better I think. Can't tell you how many times a missing file or file path snagged me for days.
