I'm getting this same error, on upgrade and on delete dialog system and import fresh

Assets/sharedassets0.asset(1,3): error CS8025: Parsing error

Assets/sharedassets0.asset(1,1): BCE0044: unexpected char: 0x0.

Only reimport all 45 minutes makes it go away

Terry,

What versions of Unity and operating system are you using?

Does it happen if you import into a completely empty project?

It sounds like your project might contain a misbehaving script. Can you make a backup of your project and then delete any scripts and plugins that uses UnityScript (*.js)? This will split the problem space in half so we can get to the bottom of the issue sooner.

Another approach would be to start with a completely empty project and import each plugin one at a time, exiting and restarting Unity after each import, until you find the one that breaks the project.

I'm using unity 5.1.1 of yesterday. I'm going to make a new project, so far ARPG and Dialog System loaded. This has to be on my 'Top Ten computer annoyances' -'#7- You're the only one getting this error' 8--[. Probably needed to trim it down anyway, for 1 thing Unity puts a 47MB
skybox in it's standard assets.47MB!

I found one from February that worked, mainly have to reconstruct the conversations since then. Keeping all unnecessary
stuff out! Upgrading dialog system (to 1.5.3b), it has to be deleted or 'duplicate namespace'. Also left out 'examples' and of course, all non action rpg support packages.

Version 1.5.4 is also available on the customer download site (no alternate mirror link yet), and should be available on the Asset Store soon. If you're upgrading from 1.5.2 or earlier, delete the old Dialogue System folder first like Terry mentioned to prevent those "duplicate" errors. I try to avoid changes that require deleting the old folder first, but in this case it allows the Dialogue System to have a more intuitive folder structure to support Unity UI now that Unity 4.6.5 is the minimum supported version.

Yeh, the 'standard' download only did 41.5MB, 'couldn't decompress package' Here's the snapshot from Feb 2015, I ran around
a little bit, saved and loaded the game. Still need to re-install the arpg item/skill prefabs.

[ADMIN EDIT: removed download link]

I wasn't sure if the download link contained any paid Asset Store products, so I removed it. I'll set up the mirror link today.

Alternate download links for 1.5.4 are now available on the customer download page.

Of course it contains paid asset store stuff, I paid for it, what's the problem?
