✅ JsonConvert.DeserializeObject return contains all null elements
Using Newtonsoft.Json, I have the following JSON (attached) with the following deserializer code: 
    public class ObjectDB
    {
        public struct DBFile
        {
            long Timestamp;
            List<Class> Classes;
            List<Object> Objects;
            List<Category> Categories;
        }
        struct Class
        {
            string InternalName;
            string Name;
            string Notes;
            int Games;
            int Progress;
            Dictionary<string, Parameter> Parameters;
        }

        struct ArgValue
        {
            string Value;
            string Notes;
        }

        struct Object
        {
            string InternalName;
            string ClassNameSMG1;
            string ClassNameSMG2;
            string Name;
            string Notes;
            string Category;
            string AreaShape;
            string ListSMG1;
            string ListSMG2;
            string File;
            int Games;
            int Progress;
            bool IsUnused;
            bool IsLeftover;
        }

        struct Category
        {
            string Key;
            string Description;
        }

        struct Parameter
        {
            string Name;
            string Type;
            int Games;
            bool Needed;
            string Description;
            List<ArgValue> Values;
            List<string> Exclusives;
        }

        public static void LoadDB()
        {
            JsonSerializerSettings settings = new();
            sDatabase = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<DBFile>(File.ReadAllText("res/objectdb.json"), settings);
        }

        static DBFile sDatabase;
    }
    public class ObjectDB
    {
        public struct DBFile
        {
            long Timestamp;
            List<Class> Classes;
            List<Object> Objects;
            List<Category> Categories;
        }
        struct Class
        {
            string InternalName;
            string Name;
            string Notes;
            int Games;
            int Progress;
            Dictionary<string, Parameter> Parameters;
        }

        struct ArgValue
        {
            string Value;
            string Notes;
        }

        struct Object
        {
            string InternalName;
            string ClassNameSMG1;
            string ClassNameSMG2;
            string Name;
            string Notes;
            string Category;
            string AreaShape;
            string ListSMG1;
            string ListSMG2;
            string File;
            int Games;
            int Progress;
            bool IsUnused;
            bool IsLeftover;
        }

        struct Category
        {
            string Key;
            string Description;
        }

        struct Parameter
        {
            string Name;
            string Type;
            int Games;
            bool Needed;
            string Description;
            List<ArgValue> Values;
            List<string> Exclusives;
        }

        public static void LoadDB()
        {
            JsonSerializerSettings settings = new();
            sDatabase = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<DBFile>(File.ReadAllText("res/objectdb.json"), settings);
        }

        static DBFile sDatabase;
    }
However, the deserializer is not throwing an error but every element of DBFile is null. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1177777512525340752/1179410186717364324/image.png?ex=6579ae54&is=65673954&hm=c0ab82bfb39fd7785f407e64f07aaba100ba3cad3f1326bf4a59fb3b4a3935f4&
