STEAMOS - updating DotNet from 8 to 10 for the update

[StarryNotes]

I hope this is the right category - I've tried to follow like six tutorials on installing Dotnet 10 via script and while it updated the DOTNET_ROOT, it didn't actually update which version my deck is using and I have no idea why - attached is the dotnet --info output.

I have already added the necessary lines to the bashrc and restarted my deck.

I'm having the same issue, did you ever find a solution? If not, the flatpack for VS works despite me not having dotnet10 for whatever reason.

Flatpak's probably the easiest solution. It works because Flatpaks bundle everything they need inside (more or less).

I still got dotnet 8 as the default on my system, added dotnet 10 directly to the vintage story folder, and added an environment variable that points to the location

export DOTNET_ROOT=./dotnet # Manually set dotnet 10 variables
export PATH=$PATH:./dotnet

Then the scrip start vintage story just fine.

Flatpaks are, for better or worse, sandboxed applications that inherently ship with all their necessary dependencies inside of the package.

this.

Minecraft used to ship with it's own copy of Java for the same reason... just in case you didn't have Java.

I have had some success downloading DOTNET 10 as the root user which then the rest of the system used. I can't remember exactly what I did for the environment variable but it ended up working. I am unfortunately not incredibly familiar with steamos version of Linux but I will update this reply if I can recreate what I did.

Did that solution survive OS updates?

Yes it did.

Its a local install in the vintage story folder itself. And as long as the environment variable is right, and pointing at the correct location, it will work.
