Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the linked Sentry report and trace the reported GetRepresentation, GetHidingList, and SetHideCategories frames in DCL.AvatarRendering.cpp and DCL.Social__24.cpp. Identify which value is null in the Unity client and reproduce the reported path. Done means the path no longer raises System.NullReferenceException and the Sentry issue is no longer reproduced.
