Getting NotImplemented Exception

[IamBatmanYourDad]

So this is a simple project which is using Newsoft's JSON library. I've built a .DLL out of it and using it on unity. It works fine but each and everytime I run it, it gives me this error. From what I've gathered, this happens only when I use a preset. If the preset is set to none, this doesn't happen. I'm also using Anit ILDASM, Constants, Rename, Type Scrambler and Anti Debug. Using Anti Tamper and Invalid Metadata makes it so that it doesn't work with Unity. Regardless of the Exception, the code is executed in it's entirety, so I'm not sure what's going on.

NotImplementedException: The method or operation is not implemented.

Okay,
so if the minimal preset already causes the issue, we can use that to identify the culprit.

Minimum enables: anti debug, anti ildasm, rename and harden.
You said you also manually enabled those protections with the exception of harden. I'm not sure how the protection hardening could possibly cause this error. But to make sure, could you please enable the minimal preset and remove the harden protection?
So we know it's caused by this protection for sure.

Sorry for the late reply. I was away for a couple days and thanks for the prompt reply,

I've done as asked (https://i.imgur.com/HOwBfuv.png) and seems like it's no better. Getting this again.

Update on this. These are the Protections which work with unity (https://i.imgur.com/XdMccJT.png). constents, rename, anti ildasm, harden, ref proxy, typescrambler & watermark when you have your preset set as None.

Also this is the error I get when I add anti tamper:

BadImageFormatException: Invalid method header local vars signature token 0x  358482

& also

This is all very strange. Could you provide the *.crproj files with and without the preset set as you do. So I'm sure you are doing what I think you are doing. 😉

[IamBatmanYourDad]

ObfuscationTest.crproj.md
This one has the preset and it's the original one which brought the issue up.

NoPresetConfused.crproj.md
This one has no preset but only the protections on there which I mentioned on the above answer.

Obv, just remove .md from the end there cuz else github won't let me upload it 😅

[IamBatmanYourDad]

On the one with no preset, as soon as you add in anti tamper you see those errors on the unity console.

[IamBatmanYourDad]

But I'd also really love to have the configuration I had in the first post since it obfuscated the code pretty well.
