Issue Upgrading to 2017.1 - Claim GetActiveScene is not a method of SceneManager.

I’m upgrading a project from 5.6.3 to 2017.1 and have run into the errors below. According to the documentation these methods should still be supported. Any suggestions?

error CS0117: UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager' does not contain a definition for GetActiveScene’

error CS0117: UnityEngine.SceneManagement.SceneManager' does not contain a definition for LoadSceneAsync’

I found the solution . Photon Networking was not recognizing the new version of Unity and overwriting the SceneManager with its own version.

Yes. Like MikeOder eluded to the answer.

you have to open up your Photon/Plugins/PhotonNetwork/PhotonClasses.cs

and once open you will have to delete lines 1247 —> 1296

I hope this helps. you won’t need those lines as they are blocks of code designed for older Unity versions.
