I can't see other players

Hello, I've made a fps game so far, but I can't see other players. And i don't know what to do, because I'm a beginning Developer. So can someone help me out of this? Here is the connection part of my connectionmanager.

{  
    int state;  
    string playerName;  
    string roomName;  
    public GUISkin conGUI;  
	public AudioSource aSource;  
    public AudioClip clickSound;  
    public AudioClip backSound;  
    bool connecting;

	private Dictionary cachedRoomList;  
    bool listRefreshed;  
    Vector2 scroll;

    public int[] maxPlayers;  
    int players = 2;  
    public string[] gameMode;  
    int modeIndex;  
    public string[] mapList;  
    int mapIndex;  
	  
	string prefix = "GunSquad";  
    public string currentVersion = "1.0";  
	public bool showConnectionStatus;  
	  
	[Header("Customization")]  
	public GameObject dummy;   
	  
	public Renderer eyeRenderer;  
	static int eyeIndex = 0;  
	  
	public Renderer bodyRenderer;  
    static int bodyIndex = 1;  
	  
	public static string[] colorList = new string[]{"Black", "White", "Red", "Green", "Blue"};  
	public static Color[] colors = new Color[]{new Color(0.09f,0.09f,0.09f,1), new Color(1,1,1,1), new Color(1,0.14f,0.14f,1), new Color(0,1,0,1), new Color(0,0.67f,1,1)};  
	  
	static int selectedRegion = 1;  
	public enum Regions {EU = 1, US = 2, RU = 3, BR = 4}  
	public Regions defaultRegion = Regions.EU;  
	  
	void Awake()  
	{  
		System.Globalization.CultureInfo ci = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US");  
		System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = ci;	  
		Application.targetFrameRate = -1;	  
		selectedRegion = (int)defaultRegion;		  
	}	

    void Start()  
    {  
        PhotonNetwork.IsMessageQueueRunning = true;  
		PhotonNetwork.SendRate = 20;  
		PhotonNetwork.SerializationRate = 10;  
		PhotonNetwork.AutomaticallySyncScene = true;  
		cachedRoomList = new Dictionary();  
		  
        roomName = "GunSquad (" + Random.Range(10, 999) + ")";  
		  
		if(PhotonNetwork.LocalPlayer.NickName == "")  
		{   
			playerName = "Guest (" + Random.Range(10, 999) + ")";  
			SavePlayerProps();  
		}   
		else   
		{  
			playerName = PhotonNetwork.LocalPlayer.NickName;  
			state = 1;  
		}

		PhotonNetwork.GameVersion = prefix + currentVersion;  
		PhotonNetwork.ConnectUsingSettings();  
		ConnectToRegion();  
    }  
	  
	void ConnectToRegion()  
	{  
		if(PhotonNetwork.IsConnected) PhotonNetwork.Disconnect();  
		  
		if(selectedRegion == 2){  
			PhotonNetwork.ConnectToRegion("us");  
		}else if(selectedRegion == 3){  
			PhotonNetwork.ConnectToRegion("ru");  
		}else if(selectedRegion == 4){  
			PhotonNetwork.ConnectToRegion("sa");  
		}else{  
			PhotonNetwork.ConnectToRegion("eu");  
		}	  
	}

But I can see the bullet holes, so there is something wrong.

Can i see how you are connecting to the game world where the players operate?

Do you have discord?
Then can i send a video.

Preferably screenshots here would help so that other users with similar issues can learn from it.

Hi @KaasKnaller,

Thank you for choosing Photon!

How do you instantiate player objects?
Do you use PhotonNetwork.Instantiate or something else?

Also maybe there is an issue with matchmaking; check out our "Matchmaking Checklist".

@JohnTube I've fixed this error. I can see the player now. But there some other bug: Assertion failed on expression: '(!CompareApproximately(aScalar, 0.0F)' Here is a screen shot of the code: https://gyazo.com/479016af67f0f02a00201966e22f6407 I hope you can help me with this.

Hi @KaasKnaller,

Could you share the full stack trace of the exception?
Also, what PUN version are you using?

@JohnTube ?

Hi @KaasKnaller,

Sorry for the delay.

It looks like this is not a PUN issue.
The issue seems to happen in line 43 of the file "PlayerNetworkInstance.cs".
The error is related to Quaternion lerp inside the Update method of the class UnrealFPS.Network.PlayerNetworkInstance.

It could be a Unity issue or a missing script reference.
You could search "Assertion failed on expression: '!CompareApproximately(aScalar, 0.0F)'" on Google.
