if you dont even put effort to make it easier for others to help, how do you expect anyone to help

i have 2D and UI set

stuck flower
# pure igloo

That still doesn't answer the question of why reference a script that references Animator instead of just referencing Animator

#

Both of those two descriptions are the same thing

#

They're both just "Make a serialized variable of the reference type and drag it in"

#

but for option 2 you do that twice for some reason

Why would you need to do that if you can just drag it in

#

If you need a reference to a unity Animator component, you reference it.

#

What is the purpose of making a script that does nothing but reference the Animator component

#

You reference both the Animator and this script the exact same way

viral hill
# lime vector here ❤

it literally says sprite mode right there. mess around with the different options. i think what you need is single instead of multiple

stuck flower
#

There's no difference between referring to an Animator and referring to a script

pure igloo
#

you rly think i thought that far ahead? i don't know how this works well enough, that's why i coudln't think far enough

stuck flower
#

Do less

#

Just reference the animator directly in the thing that needs it

#

why make a second script to just do the same work twice

pure igloo
#

ok...ok....i get it, i am stubid, pls no more, i wanna go to sleep

stuck flower
#

So, the thing you were doing on your animator script to assign objectAnimator, just do that on the script you actually want to use the animator on. Whatever thing has that spawn method

lime vector
stuck flower
#

Make a serialized field, drag in the animator

#

then you can just do anim.enabled = true

I play with the scales, that could be the problem too?

no

have you tried resetting the transform pos and noticed that it didnt work?

vivid cedar
#

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this to you but you really need to change this thing that says "Center" to "Pivot" mode for the positions to make any sense

#

that gizmo handle will show the actual pivot point of the object so it becomes more clear where it actually is in space

viral hill
#

clarity isnt the issue here

mental pulsar
#

Hi, does anyone has any idea on why this message is still there? I installed the required packages and modules...

image.png
#

(yes, i've restarted Unity)

#

Nvm, it's a bug, i clicked the "Switch Platform" button (was on Windows platform) and the message disappeared and problem got fixed, really weird

mental pulsar
#

^ Nvm it's actually bugged as hell, to be able to use the Linux build profile i need to switch to Linux platform beforehand otherwise it won't work, and the toolchain message disappears just after i switch platforms... Ideally i would be able to build for it on any platform, so later on i can build for every platform in a CI/CD environment

plain dagger
#

What Id do is use the launch option to invoke a function on launch to then handle starting your build. Remember also that switching platform reloads domain so your code cannot keep executing after that easily

mental pulsar
#

It's more likely to be a bug that has relation with this other bug saying that i need a sysroot toolchain (when i already have it), this message only disappears after switching platform (and i've built for linux in my past 2 games with no problems, never had this issue)

plain dagger
#

erm can we actually build for linux on windows?

#

it mentions looking in /usr/bin which doesnt sound right?

viral hill
plain dagger
#

then this is not going to work 😆
The only way I know is via mingw

#

I wonder if using mingw or similar would be inc clang that works

south summit
near wigeon
#

when you select the objects it will show you accurately where their pivot is, center can throw you off if they are child of another object

vivid cedar
south summit
stuck flower
#

When you drag an object into the scene, it'll be at roughly where your mouse is

vivid cedar
# south summit yep

if you go into preferences -> Scene view there should be an option about putting them at 0,0,0 vs where your mouse is

south summit
#

THANK YOUUUUUUUU

stuck flower
# vivid cedar

Oh, I didn't know that was a thing. I just set it to 0,0,0 after dragging it in. Neat!

vivid cedar
# south summit THANK YOUUUUUUUU

Also pretty sure if you drop it directly into the hierarchy window as a child of something it will go to local 0,0,0 relative to its parent

south summit
#

ok

plain dagger
#

remember you can set the default parent (r click menu) so dragging and dropping puts it where you want

well im trying to make just this car drivable, but all it does is flipping and this

vivid cedar
#

Well, presumably you have some issues with your code and your scene setup

#

Two things I notice right away:

  • Your car's position is constrained on two axes
  • You have errors in your console you should resolve
near wigeon
#

also if you're using wheel collider and your car / wheels make car "bounce" your mass is probably too low and should be way more like 2000+ or even 3000

you probably want the Edy's vehicle physics package or the free one he authors if you want to do cars.

i might want to have certain pools be children of certain prefabs and such

Hi guys, i was wondering if we can use the terrain tree option to align trees to ground at all 💀

Actually the align to ground option means make it face outward from the terrain surface normal

Just to clarify they are already on the ground, but they just stand upright without tilting to the slope of terrain (surface normal)

# elder sandal what do you mean?

it's subtle, but you have models in your project, and they have a hierarchy of meshes and materials, and you dragged and dropped the model into the scene, which has a hierarchy, and then you added a camera to it, which is a Code Smell

there's a lot going on

These two and maybe my animator are the only things I feel like it could be stemming from

near wigeon
#

#

!code

vagrant rootBOT
blissful otter
#

My b just a sec

near wigeon
#

also you should have the player with animator selected, with animator tab open and see exactly what state is in and what animator is doing in playmode

blissful otter
#

This is what it looks like, so maybe an animation issue since it's clearly calling the jump state, but I don't know what could be causing it

#

It's not me jumping because I have player controls locked at certain points in between until I'm ready for the player to be able to do a certain control

near wigeon
#

what transition condition does Idle to Jump have

#

helps to also have the "Parameters" selected instead of Layers so you can see those too

blissful otter
# blissful otter

I have them in the screenshots here, I have an isGrounded is false parameter on it and an isGrounded is true on jumping to idle

near wigeon
#

as long as you're not grounded the Jump gets called ? that seems jank

blissful otter
#

How could I fix it?

#

It is my first time making a game so I've been having to consult Claude for some help with the scripts

#

Which have all been working fine with everything except this one issue

near wigeon
#

thats an issue in itself now you have no idea what this code is doing

#

fix the janky grounded thing, and possible add a "fall" state so when notgrounded

#

and jumping clip probably has loop on which is something you dont want

blissful otter
#

Well you weren't wrong about that

#

Turned it off but I don't think it fixed the issue

near wigeon
#

at minimum it will stop from constantly looking like its jumping but you're staying in the jumpstate as long as grounded = false

blissful otter
#

All it did was stop him from infinitely jumping but he's kinda just stuck like this now

near wigeon
#

but you're staying in the jumpstate as long as grounded = false

blissful otter
blissful otter
#

Like making it into a jumped parameter instead?

near wigeon
#

your ground detection is janked m not surprising since you let a text chatbot spew whatever jank

blissful otter
#

Well it's also not straight ground, it's a stage I made with mesh colliders on the floor of it

#

So I think it's moreso detecting if the player is colliding with the stage

near wigeon
#

OnCollisionStay for grounding im sure isn't helping

#

proper would probably involve using a raycast at minimum

#

using colliders for this just gives weird results

#

if you want to double check it is debug.log inside oncollisionstay / exit and see for yourself
& also log contact.normal.y
why0.7f? how are you sure such that specific number is what you need. Another reason not to let a shitbox generate this stuff for you

blissful otter
#

Well prior to this class, I didn't really have much experience with C# to know how to code this stuff by myself

near wigeon
#

yes but you should be building up your knowledge up instead of jumping into so many complex things at once

#

there are many points of failure in thos two methods alone, the least you can do now is debug

blissful otter
#

Do I just do a debug.log or what should I specify within it?

near wigeon
#

log what values are happening , what points/parts of code are reached and so on.

#

debugger/brekpoints is better for this, but debug.log at minimum will get you started

elder sandal
#

who wanna make a game with me

or join a jam

blissful otter
#

Should I at least keep the mesh colliders on the stage to keep the characters from phasing through the floor or is that something the raycasting handles completely?

near wigeon
#

so yes you would keep the colliders, you just switch up how you detect them

#

turn convex for non-complex shapes or use a simplified shape so you can see exactly its shape (gizmos on **)

blissful otter
#

Ok let me see if that hopefully fixes things

near wigeon
#

I mean its a process, its not a turn key solution

#

you still need to be debugging

blissful otter
#

Yeah I gotta try that now because I got rid of the OnCollisionStay and Exit and switched to raycasting but the jumping is still happening

near wigeon
#

and again you need to verify your colliders

#

esp for the stage/ground

blissful otter
#

The stage is in three separate parts that I put together each with their own mesh collider and then the characters have capsule colliders

#

Not sure what out of these you would consider complex to turn on convex or not

#

I def think it's an issue with the animation or sum cause I tried debugging and nothing really came up in the console whenever the random jumping is actually happening

#

Also these are the changes I've made to the files atp

near wigeon
# blissful otter

you're disabling the script when you jump, ofc its not gonna go back to grounded....

blissful otter
#

That's cause of my player control manager script for the tutorial to stop movement at certain points of it

#

I added it to the BlazeBin

#

The flow of the tutorial's mainly being controlled by this linear sequence queue my professor made for us to use in our tutorials

Configure your IDE, itll help with errors. !ide

vagrant rootBOT
blissful otter
blissful otter
exotic relic
#

it would be difficult for someone to help without knowing what any of those functions in your pic actually do

blissful otter
#

I'm adding the scripts to the pastebin

#

But basically the text trigger's show what I want at the top of the screen during the tutorial, the timers help to add delays before certain things I want to happen, the player control manager enables and disables certain parts of the character controller, and the crouch and block detector's do precisely that

#

OH MY GOD FINALLY 😭

blissful otter
near wigeon
blissful otter
#

I guess that make sense now that it's fixed

#

Ok now I gotta try and work on how punches work with crouching or jumping because I have a high punch and low punch

#

Right now, the enemy is doing a high punch on the crouch part of the tutorial when the player crouches, which should mean the player's dodging it but it still hits him

#

Unless it's maybe also just an issue of the player isn't crouching fast enough

tepid cove
#

i wanna make a sonic fan game and right now im stuck on my character jumping 10000000 miles into the air and i dont know how to fix it im so confused

exotic relic
#

or you can show the code

tepid cove
exotic relic
tepid cove
exotic relic
#

its possible that your player never gets grounded again. Change line #9 from private bool to public bool and play the game in unfocused mode - or escape to go view scene mode

tepid cove
#

nvm its coing down at Y 1645

exotic relic
#

Well mid way through the problem look at the gameobject with that script to see if the isJumping checkbox is checked or not

#

its possible that it never gets toggled, which means your loop continuously applied force since FixedUpdate() keeps running.

#

The fix would be to place your trigger collider in the correct spot

tepid cove
exotic relic
#

Try to watch a couple videos on creating this same thing, you dont need to follow it, just learn from it so you are more aware of what this stuff does, then you could probably notice whats wrong and fix it with your own ideas

What is the technical term for creating a game prototype MVP which may be missing some assets or features?

e.g., for our client, we want to deliver a prototype with greyboxed levels, and some placeholder interactions.
Say we have a room with a door, which is meant to be opened by a puzzle mechanic in the full game, but we haven't implemented the puzzle mechanic yet. In that case, it'd be fine to just have a greyboxed room with a button in it that you press to open the door.
The aim is to deliver a prototype that gives a proper sense of the scale of the Gameworld, the layout, and an approximation of how long the experience will last.

So, I am wondering whether there is a technical term for such an 'inbetween'. it's not greyboxing per sé, given that just mostly applies to the level layout if I'm not mistaken. It's not a full on prototype either, because it doesn't give a true sense of the 'fun' gameplay, it may be missing important mechanics and key assets that I would deem required for it to be fully called a prototype.

Reason why I am asking is that I am trying to build a toolkit that lets developers quickly sketch out such 'inbetween' mvps. Currently I am just calling it a 'greybox toolkit' but I am wondering if there is a better technical term that would apply.

#

Terms that relate to this are 'vertical slice', 'wizard of ozzing', 'blockout'. But I'm keen to gather some thoughts. Like what would you search for when you're looking for a toolkit that does this?

If it's some weird aspect ratio, it could be forcing scale above 1, causing the issue, so worth checking that first.

i dont see anything wrong with my model tbh, from what i see

expand them all to check. If there is no other bone called Head im not sure whats up 🤔

#

Does the export contain more than 1 skinned mesh?

Then it's probably something with the build settings forcing certain resolution other than the native one

Double check what the default quality level is incase its different to your currently active on in editor.
(default can differ per platform too)

I have webgl platform

When the image is scaled by some arbitrary factor, it usually results in bad edges even if the original image was anti aliased. I'll let more experienced builders talk about the settings 😅

alr

Also check zoom settings in your browser.

The UI appearing totally fine makes me expect it to be somehow related more so on the build settings but worth checking

robust spire
slow dirge
#

Great. Then check everything else that we mentioned.

robust spire
#

I think I should switch to built-in rendered pipeline because I'm not using any lightning

slow dirge
#

I don't see any logic behind that statement.

plain dagger
gray dirge
#

Birp is pretty much a thing from the past at this point. The SRP batcher for example can be great system for optimization. Don't know what difference either pipeline would make for performance on web builds

robust spire
slow dirge
#

More than anything, it probably isn't gonna fix your issue.

gray dirge
#

Assuming this is a scaling issue, the only thing related to URP would be the render scale but I think that does some better filtering and wouldn't cause such artefacts so I don't think that would be the issue either

limpid pivot
#

URP is way more friendlier
Maybe a change to triplanar texture could make it look better for the dirt and grass

#

Which is much easier to code in URP graph than built in

plain dagger
#

how many people does it take to fix a silly rendering issue

gray dirge
#

As the UI is totally clean, looks like the game is rendered at some resolution, scaled to the native resolution without filtering (point/nearest) and the UI is rendered on top

#

is there a way to match the sprites of an animation with it's collider ?
Do I need to create a simple box collider and change it's size in the animator ?
(it's for a slash effect)

potent geyser
#

You need to change the size/position, yep.

maiden laurel
#

thanks for the reply, it's kinda unfortunate because my slash is circular and I tilt it so I kinda can't have a good enough collider that way

#

for example but if I use a circle collider it doesn't work either because of the tilt

image.png
#

a solution would be to have multiple colliders probably

gray dirge
potent geyser
#

You would definitely just approximate that with a box collider

maiden laurel
#

yeah

copper gust
#

prob smth like this

image.png
maiden laurel
potent geyser
#

You need to separate them

#

The animator can control both

gray dirge
#

I would also consider using query methods from Physics2D like OverlapBox. The slash is probably quite fast so even checking the area of the slash once might be enough.

maiden laurel
#

🤔 it seems to work with the animator if I put the collider as a child.
Gotta test that.
Gotta check overlapbox too thanks for the info

And if you're not using version control to keep a constant backup of your projects, you should start looking into that. Corrupted projects (I've never seen this happen) would be a minor inconvne since you could revert.

I wanted to ask 2 silly question

#

This DX11 isn’t showing up on my friends computer that is running Linux

#

Instead it is using Open GL 4.5

plain dagger
#

Open gl and vulkan are cross platform

#

That's why!

limpid pivot
#

Is that an issue when working with people that have Linux and windows?

plain dagger
#

No, unity makes it easy to change graphics API without much issue

#

But you may want to double check things and be wary of unsupported features like ray tracing

#

You can change to open gl or vulkan yourself on windows to see the difference

sly lake
limpid pivot
#

Is DX11 or DX12 kinda one of the main reasons substance painter through steam doesn’t open?

sly lake
#

No

#

Off-topic, but you can definitely run DirectX on Linux, even without Wine 🙂

#

Unity has just chosen not to

limpid pivot

Depends on the distro then?

Not a game I've made, no :o
Just out of curiosity, know of the reason behind mod discussion being prohibited? :o

stuck flower
#
  1. Because people doing mods often don't have any way to perform basic debugging steps
  2. Modding a game comes with a bunch of restrictions and caveats that make doing things the "correct" way impossible and the only way to settle those is tedious back and forth of "do this thing" "can't, not allowed" "okay how bout this thing"
  3. Even if you are working on a game with a free and open mod policy, the same techniques could be used for games that don't and it's better not to provide a general knowledge hub for that on the official server

yo anyone willing to hop in a vc with me and help me with this survival game im working on? im having trouble with the character controller and its height to make the player crouch and prone. but since the height is tied to the radius the only way to make the height any lower is to increase the radius (which i dont want to do). and i dont want to separate the colliders into diff objects bc i feel like that might be to complicated. this is my first time using character controller and im also a beginner.

hey thanks for this, i see what your saying here but the height and radius are tired to each other according to google/unityapi, it says that the height cant be lower that the radius * 2. so the lowest height i can go is 1. i guess i could increase the height of the player but the scale of the game would be increased.

i have the height set to 2

and crouch height is 1.5

# viral hill no not really. just have proning, crouching, and standing be separate states, wh...

ok say if have the player with the character controller on is and child prone and crouch colliders at there respective heights and within the code if i disable the collider of the player and enable the crouching collider the player collider would still have the character collider because the character controller has one built in. so the only way would be to disable the character controller and make it so you cant move? right?

then check the hub logs to see if there is any useful info about why it cannot verify your license

what happens if you rotate the prefab by -90 on the y axis?

or by 90

Cause my idea is he moves back to his OG spot, a text box with him speaking pops up at the top, he shoots a projectile, another text box comes up, then the instruction for you to shoot a projectile comes up and you do it, then I can finally lead into open play

Is anybody here a licensing expert on Unity by chance? Their support is leaving a lot to be desired when it comes to answering my questions.

modest meteor
lean ridge
#

I'm basically trying to figure out if in the educational grant license space, if there's a means to avoid the username/password requirement for install. Unity Docs suggest setting up a script, and while all that is doable and I have it 99% done, I'm struggling with the idea of putting a password in a script to appease this element when it's pretty bad security to do that these days. But it also seems like it might be the only way?

azure pond
#

i mean what is the application?

lean ridge
#

lab of systems in a high school

#

Unity Editor on the lab systems for whatever projects led by the teacher

azure pond
#

you mean from the point of view of the IT of administering the installs?

#

there is a command line option to activate a free license

lean ridge
#

currently I have a demo setup going where I installed unity editor using a script that was pushed out by our management system (intune). It installs the editor via CLI and works well. That was obstacle #1, but now I'm trying to figure out how to be compliant and properly use the edu grant license we were approved for.

azure pond
#

as you probably saw

lean ridge
#

can you do that without needing to leverage the username/password of the account holding the edu license?

#

Unity Docs provides this example: Windows: "C:\Program Files\Unity\Editor\Unity.exe" -batchmode -username name@example.edu.uk -password XXXXXXXXXXXXX -serial E3-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX –quit

azure pond
#

you must use the username and password

lean ridge
#

gross...

azure pond
#

no alternative that they provide

#

the license files might accidentally be compatible on the machines, but it's not supported

lean ridge
#

so if that's our only option, then we should probably spin up a separate email account that IT holds to maintain this, and change the email address within the account (assuming that's possible, which if it's not, I might flip a table...)

azure pond
#

do you have a license server?

#

you can simply use that

lean ridge
#

we do not, no

azure pond
#

i guess that is your solution

lean ridge
#

bleh, looks like it. Still a gross alternative but doesn't seem like Unity has any other pragmatic approaches.

azure pond
#

i think the licensing server is actually pretty good

#

all things considered

#

it is the simplest solution

#

your school uses kubernetes, yes?

#

(just kidding)

#

i am mocking the idea that the server is simple

lean ridge
#

On paper it may be. From my perspective I have to consider licensing costs of an additional server, EDR coverage, all that shit. It turns it into an option I'd rather avoid very quickly.

#

Quite frankly I think it may be most approachable to change the email address of the license holder account so it's something generic that I would be less annoyed by putting that password in a script.

azure pond
lean ridge
#

It just has other ramifications if I'm going to ensure everything behind it is compliant and all that.

#

And not to be an ass against Unity, but for... Unity? An app in a lab? Meh.

if you want to do this then i HIGHLY encourage you to resize this to be a pow2 size

unity states the gpu mem size on the preview in the inspector

it's 5x 1920x1080 but i can make it smaller

#

i removed the compression and yeah it's a lot better

#

thank you

plain dagger
# fleet canopy thank you

be warned this introduces new problems and its much better to do simple gradients with a shader than a texture
You can also go with a very small texture thats uncompressed as bilinear filtering should do a fine job still.

deft rock
#

yes, if you have multiple canvases that aren't parent/child, then sorting order affects the draw order of those

naive tide
#

No, this is not a UI but an image in the project that I added in the scene (spriterer...) but it doesn't appear in the foreground even when I put it in the top of the hierarchy

deft rock
#

Image component is for UI.
SpriteRenderer is for game objects in the scene.

SpriteRenderer I believe has a sort order on it?

#

Hierarchy order does not affect the SpriteRenderer draw order

plain dagger
#

says image component
"Its not ui!" 😐

copper gust
#

i mean it is a image component 😛

plain dagger
#

sprite renderers are ordered by their layer and sort order UNLESS a child of a sorting group (then hierachy order does matter somewhat)

plain dagger
#

dont make it worse

naive tide
#

I know., and how to put it back in the foreground so that I can see it( spriterer..)

plain dagger
#

Sprite sorting layer + sorting order setting + the details above control this

naive tide
#

When I transfer a normal image from the project to the scene, it's not a UI element, and the problem is behind everything, so I don't see it.

plain dagger
#

yes you already said that?

azure pond
#

don't take a picture with your phone

#

plain dagger
#

If english is difficult to use do make use of translation tools

blissful otter
#

I'm still building out the rest of my linear sequence queue but the enemy character not moving is stopping the tutorial from actually progressing further

naive tide
#

The image will not be a UI element

#

The problem is that the picture does not appear in the foreground of the scene

#

Behind everything

good luck everyone

yeah I even reset my layout just in case...

#

even Chat GPT doesn't seem to know

#

unity has a snap to grid?

dreamy rivet
#

it was so useful to snap to pixel now I have to removes digits in the transform position manually again 🙃

deft rock
#

you could fill a library with stuff ChatGPT doesn't know

#

and 10 more with stuff it lies about

dreamy rivet

#

altough personally i dont see the point in snap to grid with the snap value that low lol

lapis gate
#

I remember there was this thing called Unity Snaps and it just kinda disappeared so I guess that's it now

deft rock
#

Unity Snaps were a collection of different theme modular 3d assets that you could "snap" together

lapis gate
#

I usually just do a subdivided plane and do vertex snapping

deft rock
#

if you're doing tiled stuff, snap to grid is better/ easier than vertex snapping

lapis gate
#

It would probably be more helpful for if I was doing probuilder ye

#

but I have the idea of the unit size in blender

worldly cave
#

pretty sure the unit size is the same no?

#

like the blender and unity units are both 1m 🤔

#

by default at least

lapis gate
#

well, im not always using 1m ;p

plain dagger
#

the unity snapping can be enabled and the step size changed

dreamy rivet
worldly cave
#

how small is your scene if that is close to a 1cm difference 🤔

#

i mean if you have snapping on with the step size at 0.01 what are you even snapping to lol

dreamy rivet
azure pond
# dreamy rivet

generally, you're supposed to have a script that you attach to these game objects to pixel align them, that does nothing when built

dreamy rivet
#

no but snap to grid used to do that job flawlessly, it just began to act absurdly for some reason

azure pond
#

how much work have you put into your game so far? you are going to regret working in xy

dreamy rivet
#

why? I shipped many games that way

copper gust
azure pond
#

well there are a lot of ways of doing things

lapis gate
copper gust
#

sure but you said generally, with no disrespect your suggestion is not how that kind of solution is meant to be done (editor tooling being shipped in build)

azure pond
#

if you build in xz with a dimetric 2x1 camera, you could use navmesh, physics, intuitive movement, you get z sorting for free, etc. etc.

#

if you build a dimetric 2x1 game on xy, you get: nothing

#

besides the aesthetic experience of reimplementing half of unity

#

and random shit breaking all the time, like snapping

dreamy rivet
#

the game is close to beta

azure pond
#

phew lol

deft rock
azure pond
#

i think write a script that aligns your game objects

#

don't overthink this

#

you can vibe code this in literally minutes and it will be correct

copper gust
#

overthink this more than vibe coding

deft rock
#

I think, just fix the issue, and carry on using the feature you have done before - don't over think it with a script.

azure pond
#

well there are going to be numerous situations where you just barely miss one snapping

#

and this will be like writing a linting rule for your scene.

copper gust
#

so write an editor tool

azure pond
#

anyway. what do i know, i only make pixel art games lol

dreamy rivet
#

I mean I've been using the snap tool for 15 years just fine

#

I feel it's something so dumb

#

like pressing V or moving in local instead of global

potent moss
#

is disabling/enabling lots of objects as expensive as just deleting and respawning them?

pearl oyster
#

No, it's much cheaper. Which is why pooling is a thing

worldly cave
#

way cheaper

I have my unity projects in a git repository and unity keeps marking things to be used by git lfs. I'm not very well acquainted with git and don't want to use git lfs. How do i stop it permanently?

feral gulch
#

Has anyone run into an issue where Unity cannot open projects due to an error from the package manager? I'm trying to use Unity 6 LTS and I can create projects just fine, but Unity will not open the project due to an editor version mismatch/package manager error.

copper gust
gusty abyss
copper gust
#

no as in

#

the individual things being marked for lfs

gusty abyss
#

I don't know there's thousands of files

#

most of them are in a Library/ folder

#

This is a wiztree scan of my Unity Projects folder

image.png
copper gust
#

library shouldn't be tracked by version control in the first place

balmy kettle
gusty abyss
#

ah

balmy kettle
#

download the unity .gitignore file into the root of your project

gusty abyss
#

/Unity Projects/**/Library/

shouldn't this ignore it?

gusty abyss
#

I have like 20 and I keep making new ones. I'd rather not have to do it each time

copper gust
#

generally people do have a repo per project yeah

balmy kettle
#

using a proper gitignore for your repos is important, and you do have to have it in each individual repo

gusty abyss
#

I have one repo for all my projects ever (not just unity)

#

I can't have a repository per project

copper gust
#

can't or won't

gusty abyss
#

can't

copper gust
#

why's that

gusty abyss
#

unless I use submodules

#

which sounds complicated

that repo will get super fuckin large

gusty abyss
#

It doesn't matter

#

I host it on my own server

#

at home

plain dagger
#

the experts say: it does

gusty abyss
#

I don't care if it gets to 1TB

blissful otter
plain dagger
#

its a terrible idea regardless of who hosts it

copper gust
gusty abyss
#

It's currently 400GB

#

and most of that is rust and unity

balmy kettle
# gusty abyss I host it on my own server

i host my own git server too, i still don't have a single giant mono-repo because i know that if i need to pull a project to another device i don't want to be pulling every single project ever onto it

grim dirge
#

How are y’all doing today?

gusty abyss
#

I just don't want git lfs messing things up

blissful otter
# copper gust is this AI code

Yes, it is, I don't have time to try and explain why, I just need help fixing this one issue because I'm almost done but it's due at 6

Are you able to make job posts in this server?

gusty abyss
#

And I don't want that

azure pond
#

i mean you would have affirmatively done something in some tool

#

what do you mean unity is marking files?

copper gust
#

no

#

they are likely 100mb+

azure pond
#

have you already imported files into lfs?

copper gust
#

boxfriend is right but if your hard stuck on hosting im sure you can look online and find the right way to specify the pathing in your central gitignore file
you need to be excluding stuff like library folders

plain dagger
#

unity doesnt magically modify .gitattributes...

#

unless there is some package or something that was already there

gusty abyss
azure pond
gusty abyss
#

git init --bare Projects.git

#

that's all i did

#

and then i cloned it

#

with ssh

plain dagger
#

Im not sure how destructive this operation is either

gusty abyss
#

I don't care about the history so it's fine

azure pond
gusty abyss

that's the whole point of it

#

also when I do git lfs ls-files

#

It gives me a bunch of paths in the Unity Projects folder

azure pond
#

so why did you install lfs and add files to .gitattributes ha ha

#

why did you do that

gusty abyss
#

I never installed lfs

azure pond
#

if you didn't want to use lfs

#

just write git log .gitattributes and you'll be able to see what happened

#

let's start with that

#

@gusty abyss focus ONLY on what i am saying for a second

#

run the command and show it here

gusty abyss
# 
fatal: ambiguous argument '.gitattributes': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

azure pond

fine, do git log -- .gitattributes
