Make sure you have installed the .NET SDK 6.0+. Can you check which SDK version and runtimes you have available by executing dotnet --info in a console?

Also, the mono_glue argument no longer exists take a look at the updated steps in the module's README.md, and the godot binary has recently been renamed (64 -> x86_64) so make sure you are not accidentally running an old binary instead of the one you just compiled.

For your convenience, here is an example of the full list of commands that you should be executing:

scons p=windows tools=yes module_mono_enabled=yes
bin/godot.windows.tools.x86_64.mono --generate-mono-glue modules/mono/glue
python ./modules/mono/build_scripts/build_assemblies.py --godot-output-dir ./bin --push-nupkgs-local ~/MyLocalNugetSource

Is there documentation somewhere on building export templates with this new method? Do we use the old method minus the deprecated commands?

[raulsntos]

The commands have changed a bit recently (see more information about these changes in #66242), these would be the commands to build the editor and assemblies now:

scons p=windows target=editor module_mono_enabled=yes
bin/godot.windows.editor.x86_64.mono --generate-mono-glue modules/mono/glue
python ./modules/mono/build_scripts/build_assemblies.py --godot-output-dir ./bin --push-nupkgs-local ~/MyLocalNugetSource

To build the export templates:

scons p=windows target=template_debug module_mono_enabled=yes
scons p=windows target=template_release module_mono_enabled=yes
