Unity: DLL not found unless put in the same folder as the game.exe manually
After going through all the instructions, and keeping all the dll files in Plugins/x86_64 and Plugins/x86 the game is being built, and the compiled version of the game ends up with the dll based on the 32 or 64 build in the gamename_Data/Plugins folder.
The issue is that the game then doesn't see the discord_game_sdk.dll for some reason, and then fails with System.DllNotFoundException: discord_game_sdk.
This is only resolved by moving the gamename_Data/Plugins/discord_game_sdk.dll manually to the root folder, right next to the gamename.exe.
A second issue with this fix is that the discord_game_sdk.dll is then only loaded if the game is being started with administrator rights. Otherwise it fails with an internal error:
This might be an issue with Unity itself. I had a similar experience when building with Unity 2019.1 with some other dlls.
What version of Unity are you on?
Latest LTS - Unity 2020.3.x
Other plugins that ship their dll file do not have this issue.
