Can't you simply get away with using doubles instead of floats so that you don't have to deal with this

[slim cradle]

i can't, collide & slide is the most important feature of KCC, that's exactly why i use it. And since it works on the ground, it translates downward forces to xz forces

🫠

[viral hill]

I don't see the correlation

Nothing is stopping you

[slim cradle]

issue doesnt come from doubles, a fix comes from adding a downward force. But this breaks because the floor isnt EXACTLY flat so my downward force is getting slid across x and z when i'm grounded

[viral hill]

There seems to be some miscommunication here. Why did you bring up floating precision errors in your original message if that isn't the root of the problem?

[slim cradle]

"Then I pinpointed a part of the issue: if I apply gravity while already on the ground, it doesnt happen, but the KCC adds force towards your direction even if it’s a down force (collide & slide with floating point precision errors)."

"if I apply gravity while already on the ground, it doesnt happen"

a fix is to always apply gravity (sketchy fix though)

but i can't add gravity while on the ground with a KCC

because it breaks the movement because of that float error

[viral hill]

Then just don't use floats...

[brave ridge]

you'd be in for a big surprise when you look at what unity uses for pretty much every number

[viral hill]

You can easily manually cast it to something else

[slim cradle]

the engine uses that. I don't use that in code

[brave ridge]

you're surely just guessing here. you cannot just force unity to use doubles when everythings already using floats. You can use a double all you want. When you provide that value to any unity function, its gonna be a float at the end

plus floats clearly arent even the issue there

[viral hill]

I see. I had assumed we were talking about manually declared variables rather than the declared variables in the built in components

[slim cradle]

That doesnt really fix the issue anyways

[brave ridge]

if you're certain that it's an error with KCC, due to this message, then really you're either gonna need a workaround or to contact the developer with the error.
Maybe one workaround could be applying gravity only while there is input so the player doesn't notice this sliding issue

[slim cradle]

that's not a bad fix idea lemme try that

it fixes the "movement fuck up" but it still breaks slope/stairs movement

[lapis gate]

I think I've seen the auto-jump with KCC on one of its controllers

[slim cradle]

oh

[lapis gate]

I'd double check on the settings that some of these custom controllers give you

[slim cradle]

i'm using my own code

i only use the KCC motor script

[lapis gate]

Well, there's obviously something in the motor that's doing it then

[slim cradle]

yup, but i tried to change EVERY setting with no success

If there's a way to have steps and disable sliding when landing on a slope with a rigidbody, i'll take it...

Or use the original character controller with better collisions aka collide & slide + can't go through walls/no clipping with skin width/no air space between character and objects (this one is easier iirc)

Hello

[signal herald]

Hi guys, my game has player made maps, so I instantiate all game objects at runtime. Do you have any recommendations for how to cull objects? Should I use Occlusion culling or just frustum culling? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!

[ocean pumice]

Dynamic gameobjects cant be occludees from what I know from the docs. So you might have to use some kind of custom occlusion system or find a way to create the occlusion data when people upload their maps. not sure if thats possible. Frustum culling will render everything that is in view, so it can hit a certain performance issue quite fast depending on your map editor

[chrome scaffold]

This sounds like an excellent candidate for the GPU Occlusion Culling in Unity 6 👀

[signal herald]

Yeah my games performance really starts to suffer with a certain level of details in the maps.. I'm not sure if there's anything I havent tried yet other than occlusion culling

[signal herald]

oh I didnt know there was something new there, is it out yet or yet to come?

[chrome scaffold]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/urp/gpu-culling.html

[ocean pumice]

Good call here, did not check it out yet. Good to know! 🙂

[signal herald]

Ah I am on default RP unfortunately

SRP Batching would probably help too. But moving over to URP will be quite the task..

[ocean pumice]

Is the game already released or still in testing phase?

[signal herald]

It's in early access right now

why does it matter?

[ocean pumice]

If a lot of players would be affected or not if you change to URP. I am just thinking, you wont be that happy with continuing with built in. but thats just guts feeling

[chrome scaffold]

I suppose it's worth weighing the long term cost of optimizing your game around the limitations* of BiRP vs the cost of switching to URP.

[ocean pumice]

And BuiltIn is still an easier move than going from HDRP to URP, so maybe its not that much of work. Most likely its shaders being updated

[signal herald]

yeah I guess i have to investigate that a bit further. URP could help performance a lot. You would not recommend HDRP over URP though?

[ocean pumice]

HDRP is high end graphics. I do not think you wanna support that

Depends on your visuals tho. Is it AAA graphics or more like indie stylized visuals?

[signal herald]

The game is pretty much a map maker for maps with good graphics for stuff like dungeons and dragons

Good graphics will be well appreciated. Im not sure if there is any disadvantages for HDRP over URP though?

[ocean pumice]

In that case, I think URP would be more than enough. But again, depends on your graphical style still.

[signal herald]

depends on what the users build I guess.. I only give them assets to work with

[ocean pumice]

yeh, but thats your visual style then. If you predefine assets and the overall graphical style. Its like fortnite having a bunch of assets, but the style is still stylized comic-ish

[signal herald]

ah yeah ok I get what you mean now. It's mostly more realistic looking assets. Theres low poly stuff too though in case someone wants to use that

[chrome scaffold]

You very much can achieve AAA realistic graphics in URP too. HDRP just comes with a lot of features and tools you'd otherwise have to develop and implement yourself.

[signal herald]

Heres a random screenshot of community made maps

Damn it seems like I got a lot of work to do now. What would be your estimate in how long it takes to move a game from Default RP to URP/HDRP?

[ocean pumice]

That looks like URP should do the job. Its not hyper realistic and you are cutting off a lot of people when forcing HDRP.

[signal herald]

Is it days, weeks or months? 😄

[signal herald]

cutting people off that dont have a good gpu/cpu is what you mean?

that can handle HDRP

[ocean pumice]

This entirely depends on your project 😄 Having one material, its 15 minutes maybe 😄 And thats more of creating URP asset and assigning than really updating, because most materials might be updated automatically. But if you have a bunch of shader graphs or custom shader scripts, thats another story

[chrome scaffold]

If you're comfortable with shader programming, I'd say day(s). It really is pretty straightforward.

[signal herald]

havent done a single shader myself yet, but I always wanted to dig a little bit deeper into it. Guess its a good time to do so

[ocean pumice]

yes. HDRP just gives a higher "default" in what it can handle, that you might not think off. And as you did not need it yet, you might be better off with URP, as you also can cover other systems in the future, if you wanted. map viewer on mobile or what not

[signal herald]

thanks for the help guys, much appreciated!

if you have a bunch of objects in the same gameobject say a few spheres, is it possible to add one mesh collider on the game object and have it work for everything?

No because a mesh collider used only one mesh object to produce the collider

You can use multiple colliders in one rigid body

[daring dock]

Hi everyone,

I have a mobile game where users upload images (feeds/news).
The original image file in storage is around 119 KB, but after downloading it into Unity, the in-memory Texture2D becomes 4.4 MB on Android.

To reduce memory usage, I implemented runtime compression by resizing and converting textures. With compression the result becomes ~0.4 MB, which is acceptable — but the downside is that every downloaded image must go through compression, which costs CPU time.

Here is the code I’m currently using:

private Texture2D ResizeTex(Texture2D sourceTex, int maxSize)
{
float scale = Mathf.Min(
(float)maxSize / sourceTex.width,
(float)maxSize / sourceTex.height
);

int newW = Mathf.RoundToInt(sourceTex.width * scale);
int newH = Mathf.RoundToInt(sourceTex.height * scale);

newW = MakeMultipleOf4(newW);
newH = MakeMultipleOf4(newH);

RenderTexture rt = RenderTexture.GetTemporary(newW, newH);
rt.filterMode = FilterMode.Bilinear;

RenderTexture.active = rt;
Graphics.Blit(sourceTex, rt);

Texture2D tex = new Texture2D(newW, newH, TextureFormat.RGBA32, false);
tex.ReadPixels(new Rect(0, 0, newW, newH), 0, 0);
tex.Apply(false);

RenderTexture.active = null;
RenderTexture.ReleaseTemporary(rt);

return tex;

}

My questions:
1️⃣ What is the best method to compress a large number of downloaded images at runtime for mobile (iOS + Android)?
2️⃣ Does Unity provide any built-in way to apply platform texture compression (ASTC/ETC2) to downloaded Texture2D at runtime?
3️⃣ Are there recommended tools or plugins for runtime image compression on mobile?

Something that can convert a downloaded texture into ASTC (iOS) or ETC2 (Android).

Or any solution that reduces memory size without noticeable visual noise.

Thanks in advance! Any tips or best practices would be appreciated 🙏

Why are you worried about the images in memory unpack size? You really shouldnt need to mess with it. Not saying it to judge. But 4mb isnt bad for an unpacked image size in ram. Just curious if there's a bigger issue you are trying to tackle.

Or is the problem that you are trying to pre-load all images in your game and its taking up a ton of memory? Versus loading as you go

[neat finch]

Great.

[brave ridge]

really looks to be an AI generated question

[fierce latch]

Hi people, Is the physics engine considered strong enough for small sphere physics (including overspin), such as golf/mini golf.. I tried before some time ago and had strange angular velocity issues/tunneling etc. So recently I created my own physics which basically meant no rigid body, just colliders, everything else done by me in the fixedupdate. Having got it to a point where it works pretty well, I cant help think its overkill. Do people tend to just rely on unity? do they lightly augment it? or like a fool (like me) do everything themselves. 🏐

[bright plank]

Well, Very Well

Hello Guys

[hushed hamlet]

I've made some mini golfing games ages ago, and just used the default physics engine. It needed some tweaking for interpolation but worked great. Mind you that was ~8 years back

That being said, making your own will give you a lot more control and youll learn a lot

[vivid cedar]

I would not try to write a golf game with spin using the pure physics engine

[brave ridge]

if you need specific features, like spinning in air, then that's something custom you'll have to do. the physics engine isnt at all realistic

at most you should really just fake it

[fierce latch]

Thanks you would hope the default implementation only got better

[fierce latch]

Yes, I implemented arbritrary gravity etc, but by the time I was dont the class was 800 lines of code... seems a bit OTT

[brave ridge]

a ball sliding or bouncing around at a reasonable speed would be a fine case. A realistic golfing game is not a fine case

[hushed hamlet]

One thing I do a lot is having separate children for the collided and the mesh. That way I can still control how things like rotation works with the physics being impacted only when I want to.

But honestly, it sold well, did fine, no user physics issues reported. I have no major complaints.

Other than some initial workflow tweaking I dont remember having challenges with the physics. The level layouts took the most time

[fierce latch]

I felt I was doing ok, I created my own materials profile system etc, could detect the surface of individual sub meshes, but then I imagined a spinning disk, that the ball might traverse and thought "£$$£%".... Iuppose things like those interactions are catered for in Physx

[chrome scaffold]

As others pointed out, 4mb really isn't all that much. Compressing it the way you're doing would be the way to go to minimize the size in memory (at the one time cost of compressing), but you regardless want to load data on the fly so you only load the data you're currently showing. Other apps with feeds, for instance, don't load content until you scroll it (close to) in view.
You can also use things like https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.2/Documentation/ScriptReference/Networking.DownloadHandlerTexture.html to fetch and load the images on a separate background thread.
https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.2/Documentation/ScriptReference/Networking.UnityWebRequestTexture.GetTexture.html

[gray frigate]

note that it's normal for images to be much larger on the GPU than they are on disk

textures need to be stored in a format that can be quickly decoded by the GPU

formats like JPEG and PNG can compress images based on long-range features (e.g. a large white square can be stored extremely concisely)

this is not possible on the GPU

Looks solid. Add debug statements to find where the problem is specifically

Also in your code it's supposed to play an idle state, but there is no animation called idle in your animator

its the new state

idle is just an animation which the door do not move default state

heyy i was looking at the Sora 2 AI...

[storm patio]

if you have a question, you can just lead with it

but honestly you can just discard anything from genAI

[hollow kettle]

Im thinking if its possible to generate a character in Dall-E, pipe it over to Sora to have it create a video of it taking certain actions... then grab the frames and use it as character sprites for your project

[storm patio]

if you can imagine it, it's possible

but it's not gonna be very good

[hollow kettle]

Sora can animate pretty crazy stuff rn though

that looks realistic

[storm patio]

whatever you say, bud

if you want to shill AI, there is an echo chamber for you to explore

as far as ive seen, most people dislike AI creations. it's only the people who can't make shit for themselves and rely on AI as a replacement for thought and skill that sing its praises

genAI has its uses, yes. but it's not as useful as the marketing team wants you to believe.

[hollow kettle]

I wasnt wondering about morality... i was just wondering if it was possible to have a pipeline where you generate character design with dall-e and feed it into sora 2 to animate it.. then use the generated frames to create a spritesheet for a video game character

and i guess you can? idk...

[storm patio]

you described it, so it's possible

it's still gonna be pretty obvious.

none of what i said above was about morality either, just quality or sheer utility

[hollow kettle]

idk, i have trouble distinguishing some of the AI generated videos from real videos these days

on youtube

[storm patio]

it's all been pretty obvious to me

but even so, that's without external context
when you use those as assets, especially pulling video frames, the added context will make it even more jarring

but seems like you're set on using shit assets already, so 🤷

[hollow kettle]

this is AI generated

[storm patio]

and that's pretty obvious, yes.

[hollow kettle]

ohh, its not obvious to me AT ALL lol

[storm patio]

first off, optical illusions rely on perspective. it wouldn't be a hole from the other side.
there are several discontinuities - necks and legs randomly breaking

a dog literally walks on the wall in the last scene

[hollow kettle]

LOL yeah thats HOW i know its an AI because it woudlnt be a "hole" from the other side

but it looks like a real dog. You have to look at the "minute details" and really analyze it

at a first glance its really hard to tell some of these videos.. i just picked an obvious one

[storm patio]

sure man, whatever you say

i do not care about your struggles with distinguishing reality, tbh

[potent geyser]

Please use the AI thread, we don't need this leaking out here.

[brave ridge]

it doesnt matter how realistic it is anyways. If your goal is just to generate a sprite sheet, it's not like you need realism. this is hardly unity related at this point though

What about the child objects? Both of them have children, do any of the children have colliders?

[storm patio]

also make sure your objects aren't tiny, that would hit the early return

[dense juniper]

Yes, there was one in the hunter's mesh, but even removing it didn't change anything.

[stuck flower]

Add this log at the top of Update:

Debug.Log($"Position of target: {player.position}, current position: {transform.position}");

See if the numbers match what you expect to see as the objects move around. Maybe make it so there's only one Hunter in the scene so you aren't getting data from a bunch of them in the console.

[stuck flower]

Looks like the point they both stop at, the difference between the two of them is about 0.1, which would mean the sqrMagnitude of the difference is about 0.01, which is your exit condition.

So, I think you want to make that distance a bit smaller. Or just take the minor performance hit and check the normal magnitude

If you log distance before the if statement, what does it print when the hunter stops

1. The hunter's visual isn't offset right? The rotation and way it moves makes it feel like the actual model isn't actually centered to the rigidbody.
2. You shouldn't be using transform.position += for rigidbodies. Use rb.MovePosition instead.

[craggy pollen]

or even better velocity

[dense juniper]

using UnityEngine;

public class EnemySimpleAI : MonoBehaviour
{
    [Header("Références")]
    public Transform player;     // Le poulet (target)

    [Header("Vitesse")]
    public float moveSpeed = 4f;
    public float rotationSpeed = 10f;

    private Rigidbody rb;

    void Awake()
    {
        rb = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
    }

    void Update()
    {
        if (player == null) return;

        // Direction vers le joueur (on ignore la hauteur)
        Vector3 direction = player.position - transform.position;
        direction.y = 0f;

        // Distance réelle (PAS au carré)
        float distance = direction.magnitude;
        // Debug pour vérifier
        Debug.Log($"DISTANCE = {distance}");

        // ❗ On ne s'arrête que si on est VRAIMENT collé
        // (tu peux jouer avec ce chiffre : 0.01f, 0.02f, etc.)
        if (distance < 0.001f)
            return;

        // Rotation vers le joueur
        Quaternion targetRot = Quaternion.LookRotation(direction);
        transform.rotation = Quaternion.Slerp(
            transform.rotation,
            targetRot,
            rotationSpeed * Time.deltaTime
        );

        // Avance vers le joueur
        transform.position += direction.normalized * moveSpeed * Time.deltaTime;
    }
}

i dont understand, soryy im very bad at programming

[stuck flower]

So, the distance is basically zero

Meaning they're at the same position

Whatever object this script is on and whatever object player is assigned to are at the same point

working up the courage to try this tutorial on the new movement system

[misty veldt]

can anyone help when i try to add a c# in a folder it dosent show up

[vivid cedar]

YOu're going to have to be more specific

what do you mean by "add a C# in a folder"? What exactly are you doing and what happens?

[woeful torrent]

i think i've been staring at Unity open instead of doing anything with it, happens every day with me where i don't even have the courage to do the included tutorials that i still get lost on

[misty veldt]

so i made a folder in my assets named scripts i opened the folder and the tutorial was watching the guy right clicks inside where is it says This folder is empty then he goes to create and makes a thing called a c# but for my when i do that there's ever thing in the create menu expect for c#

[woeful torrent]

if i was in a physical class doing this i'd probably do everything asked of me

[balmy kettle]

look in the Scripting submenu

[vivid cedar]

You want this

MonoBehaviour script

[misty veldt]

do i press that?

[vivid cedar]

It's better than staring at it wistfully

[misty veldt]

it worked

ty guys so much

[woeful torrent]

what's a good 3d platformer tutorial?

[balmy kettle]

!learn 👇 do the pathways on the unity learn site

[vagrant root]

:teacher: Unity Learn ↗

Over 750 hours of free live and on-demand learning content for all levels of experience!

[woeful torrent]

idk why i'm not learning from any of the Unity Learn things tho, i just follow the steps and can't absorb it

[balmy kettle]

then i don't know what to tell you. if you can't learn from incredibly basic tutorials that are structured in such a way that they actually teach the basics, then what makes you think you'll have an easier time learning from random tutorials that people suggest

[woeful torrent]

idk just wish i wasn't dumb at this

i'm sorry i couldn't get it

[copper gust]

(this comes off abit rough)

[balmy kettle]

oh well. they've been complaining like this for days now

[dense cliff]

this is very friendly to use as a starting point https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpj8TZGNIBNy51EtRuyix-NYGmcfkNAuH

[woeful torrent]

its just i've done many of the unity learn modules multiple times and don't understand any coding or remember how to do it on my own projects

but i'm also beyond the tutorials of "this is the inspector window"

[balmy kettle]

are you doing the pathways or just picking random courses from the catalog because those are two very different things

[woeful torrent]

got thru like part 1 of programming and the engine

[dense cliff]

I cant speak for others but I wouldn't be able to just retain the code knowledge taught in the videos without already having a basic understanding of that coding language, maybe you need to brush up on that

This is fun place to start fromhttps://github.com/herokudev/C-Sharp-30-days-of-code

[woeful torrent]

nervous, programmings the only courses i ever failed, i have to power thru it

[dense cliff]

I believe in you

[woeful torrent]

too terrifying for me to even look at tbh

[balmy kettle]

then consider seeking a mental health professional

[dense cliff]

ha honestly give it a crack , it starts from the most basic "hello world" programme and then walks you through variables, dictionaries, lists, enums etc . All stuff you will use in Unity scripting

[woeful torrent]

whats enum

its all a lot ugh

[tawny quail]

An enum is just a number wearing a nametag

[mild radish]

this is an enum.. i'll typically use them like different states

can name em whatever u want.. like nomnom said, its just a value (0 -> x)

[dense juniper]

using UnityEngine;

        Vector3 newPos = rb.position + direction.normalized * moveSpeed * Time.fixedDeltaTime;
        rb.MovePosition(newPos);
    }
}

[woeful torrent]

Wish I could learn this in person again 😓

[craggy pollen]

if you really want to, you will learn

[dense juniper]

honestly i dont understand why that doesnt work arghh

[tawny quail]

Did you check the first thing I said

[woeful torrent]

Tbh I'm just learning this to prove I can actually make games instead of being a fake developer who only builds IRL arcade cabinets for other people's work

It's not been going so well

[azure pond]

there's nothing wrong with this code.

    public Transform player;     // Le poulet (target)

when chatgpt/gemini generated this, why did it think the chicken is the target? the hunter is the target, yes? you put the wrong thing in the slot here. it is correctly reporting that the distance from the wrong thing is <0.05 and stopping.

[mild radish]

takes time

if you can build game cabinets you can figure out the game engine.. im sure u couldn't build cabinets right off the bat either

[azure pond]

think what is supposed to be in the target slot in the inspector for enemy simple AI

don't send me a screenshot

just say what is supposed to be in that slot

[woeful torrent]

I hate spending years and years like I have and I still not being anywhere. I think I started trying in 2016 and didn't get anywhere

[dense juniper]

the chicken

[azure pond]

okay, i gues sit is confusing. the chicken is the player, and has a shotgun for some reason haha

[stuck flower]

The code is on the enemy, so the target would be the player, which is the chicken

[azure pond]

the position of the player is not what you think it is

that's the whole story here

[tawny quail]

The hunter's visual isn't offset right? The rotation and way it moves makes it feel like the actual model isn't actually centered to the rigidbody.
please just check this

[azure pond]

it's just at a coordinate behind the chicken

the visual is clearly offset

you could drop the 3d model of the chicken into the slot instead of the parent object, and i think things will work better

but your problem is the "visual offset" @dense juniper

swich to scene mode and this will be more obvious

no more screenshots. just look with your eyes.

[mild radish]

the center of their capsule is also at 3.71 on the X... not sure if thats an issue

[dense juniper]

Guys, I don't understand, everything is in its place yet

[copper gust]

if its not in its place its not in its place

[tawny quail]

Go to the chicken and make sure the child visual is at 0,0,0 (or offset from the ground depending on model).
Go to the hunter and make sure the child visual is at 0,0,0 (or offset from the ground depending on model).

The way the hunter rotates makes it look like the visual of it is not at the origin of the rigidbody. That's why it looks like a very large hinge when rotating.

[gray pier]

Heya, anyone have a way for unity to recompile code the moment i save on vscode instead of on alt-tab?

[mild radish]

use the Pivot mode..

it will show u where the real transform is.. (for example i set mine up to have the capsule collider offset 3.71 just as urs is in the screenshots

[bold elm]

Hello, would a question about what to pass from a tesselation shader to the depth pass using HLSL go in #1390346827005431951 or #1390346776804069396 ?

[balmy kettle]

shader questions belong in the rendering channel

[bold elm]

alright thank you, didnt know if that was changed due to how i was creating the shader

[mild radish]

afaik Unity must be focused on to recompile.. not sure if its possible for it to reload/recompile while your IDE is focused instead

Hot-reload tools or assets perhaps

[balmy kettle]

rider and visual studio can do it automatically. vs code probably requires an extension for it

[tawny quail]

Since I use Hot Reload it JustWorks ™ for the asset auto refresh when unfocused (with vsc)

[woeful torrent]

Do recompilings take longer the more complex each scene gets?

Like 10 minutes long

[mild radish]

restarting the editor can speed it up if it starts getting slow..

[balmy kettle]

it's not about scene complexity, but the amount of code/number of assemblies that need to be compiled

typically though the domain reload is the longest part and not the actual compilation

[woeful torrent]

Tomorrow I'll try this https://youtu.be/q-VfsQQlji0 it's easy to do and should only be an hour I just have to work up not being traumatized by the editor

[hollow kettle]

i've been thinking, and i think i've thought of "interesting game dev coding tricks" like modular/customizable spells and drawing outlines around sprites... that i WISH there was a tutorial for but ISNT

[woeful torrent]

The new input system threw me off seeing it for the first time

[balmy kettle]

you can read about domain reload and the option to disable it (and the extra work required if you do) here https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.2/Documentation/Manual/domain-reloading.html
just note that disabling it only affects entering play mode and not compiling after saving your code

[gray pier]

good news, i found a workaround, install untiy tools and add:
"vstuc.refreshOnSave": true,
to your settings.json

[balmy kettle]

if you don't already know how to code then you're going to struggle even harder following random tutorials like this than you would by just doing the pathways on the unity learn site

it seems the actual reason you are struggling so much is because you don't want to put in the work to actually learn and you just want to skip to the part where you already know how to do things so you keep trying to find different tutorials. just stick with the pathways on the learn site

[hollow kettle]

well tbf alot of tutorials kind of suck..

[balmy kettle]

yes, which is why they need to stick with the ones that don't suck

[hollow kettle]

theres very few that "dont suck"

and if youre new, its hard to recognize which ones "dont suck"

[balmy kettle]

here's a fun fact: the ones that i have been suggesting to them don't. the ones they are literally giving up in favor of ones that do.

[hollow kettle]

nice

[woeful torrent]

I dont have faith in the Unity Learn tutorials so far, cause I'm still on square one of not getting it

[hollow kettle]

wtf u trying to learn thoo?

[balmy kettle]

they need to learn the basics. not focus on learning specific concepts yet

[hollow kettle]

for example...
most "tutorials" on how to draw a boundary around sprites "SUCK"

[woeful torrent]

What's the basics beyond editor controls tho after I know all the editor buttons

[craggy pollen]

ok then how about you start learning plain c#

[azure pond]

no

[hollow kettle]

like if you want to hover your mouse over a sprite, and want to draw an outline around the sprite

to indicate you are hover it

you cant find a good tutorial for it online i had to figure it out myself 😭

[azure pond]

@woeful torrent have you made a game before?

[woeful torrent]

The 30 day one looks impossible idk how people do all that

[hollow kettle]

most "tutorials" are garbage

[craggy pollen]

wdym 30 days

[azure pond]

just focus on what i am saying for a sec

[balmy kettle]

inb4 "you're on a long journey" and "use ai"

[hollow kettle]

the dumb ass thing is that once you figure out the BEST way to do something...

its easy to find references to it

but until you find the best way to do it, you will have to shift through thousands of garbage

[azure pond]

haha

[woeful torrent]

Old middle school things on game maker, but no

[craggy pollen]

who is rushing you to learn c# in 30 days, it will take at least a few months to understand the basics and some advanced c#

[azure pond]

well that's good

[woeful torrent]

I don't use AI I don't get the journey part

[azure pond]

are you uh, doing CS?

in so many words

when you used gamemaker did you program?

or only use visual tools

[hollow kettle]

dude, don't learn the language... learn the data structures and logic

[woeful torrent]

No I make arcade cabinets and I have to teach myself a game engine or else I'm not actually a game designer just a woodworker

[hollow kettle]

just give the data structure/logic to the AI and have IT write the code in the chosen language 😛

because once you know the logic, everything else is syntax

your just saving time looking up the logic itself...
ofc you want to double check the ai's output and make sure the code its pooping out is fitting the logic you gave it

but its faster, and takes less time

[hushed hamlet]

The problem isn't usually learning C# itself, but the engine specifics around it.

[woeful torrent]

I don't like how I was able to teach myself so much, but not this

Ah just tangenting now

Just gotta learn to make a cylinder walk across a plane without hurting my head

[copper gust]

They are new. They cannot check if the code fits the logic.

[azure pond]

have you seen https://github.com/freezy/VisualPinball.Engine ?

i actually know a lot about pinball haha

[azure pond]

focus on what i am saying

[woeful torrent]

Yeah pinball

[azure pond]

just focus on chatting here for 3 minutes

are you familiar with vpx?

the virtualized pinball stuff?

[woeful torrent]

Some virtual pinball system, the pinball heads generally don't like them

Where it's half screen and some guff on the table above it

I remember playing with that Universal Fighting Engine plugin, shit was cash

[azure pond]

okay. so i think these things are very useful. it's true that you have to program to make many kinds of experiences. but it might make more sense to start with an engine / tooling that does exactly what you want to do already

[woeful torrent]

Probably, I still gotta learn to assemble it all tho

[azure pond]

there is a lot of information on screen and you'll get used to seeing it / reading it better soon enough

[woeful torrent]

Also a bit cooked from years of starting and flopping on game programming, so everything is on edge for me

[dense juniper]

It's okay, I succeeded! Thank you everyone for your help.

[glass kraken]

hi, my first player controller's jump doesn't work, once I press the space KeyCode, it doesn't jump https://paste.ofcode.org/fhBW2pf9JD7j4vuRSGMgFk

[plush nebula]

guys in Unity how do i make an object grabable, is it just through using building blocks or should I use unity openXR gameobjects(i tried htis way and couldnt get it working)

i appreciate any help

[vivid cedar]

#🥽┃virtual-reality

[stuck flower]

Is isGrounded ever true?

[glass kraken]

just added a debug to log its value and it first was true then false and now the jumping works again, it's weird sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, yesterday it didn't work,I had to change the jumping value(probably not what was wrong) and it suddenly worked, and now it works after adding a debug

it's weird, but I think the bool is always false

I'm debugging in the update and once I enter playmode, it debugs true and then false all the time$

[stuck flower]

That would be your actual problem then. Look at what you assign it to and see if it's doing what you want it to do

[woeful torrent]

No vc on this server nvm

I was thinking tomorrow I do that little 3 minute video, spend rest of the week learning how to do that while chatting

Or like live streaming me trying

Just focusing on the Learn classes is incredibly difficult and I need to be in an environment with others

[lapis gate]

Say if I do want to do make a large world in Unity, would the editor still fall into those floating precision issues?

What's the idea then

Do I offset my origin as I add elements to the scene? heh

[stuck flower]

Normally, you'd occasionally shift things closer to the center before you get too far

[mild radish]

like a treadmill

[lapis gate]

I just don't understand how offseting the origin even blends nicely with gameplay. I'd imagine moving a ton of transforms in a frame would cause some stutters

But I guess I wouldnt have everything loaded

[mild radish]

if ur moving the camera along w/ everything else how would u see stutters?

its like if u were walking thru a house and u moved the entire house

[lapis gate]

mostly a processing thing of moving the hierarchy

[pearl oyster]

If the entire world has one common parent you only need to move the parent. An object's world position is calculated anyway as parent's world position + own local position.

[stuck flower]

You could get clever about it and shift things whenever you have a moment to disguise it. Player opens a menu? Recenter the world. Player goes through a door? Recenter the world. This would limit the times you have to do it because they get too far out

[mild radish]

aye.. thats cheeky... i never thought of having (1) big master container

[pearl oyster]

Static objects would be an issue I'd imagine

[lapis gate]

I was researching a bit and looking into unreal for the double precision, but even then it's fake. A lot of your hardware expects those floating values so you end up having to appease your GPU anyway

Especially I wanted to do some water simulation with CPU async readback

[pearl oyster]

But also the world can be very big before you run into floating point issues. GTA V's map coordinates range from about -4000 to +4000

[lapis gate]

Yeah that's not too bad, but I am expecting oceans worth of water

[azure pond]

this is what Gaia does, in my experience, i don't see glitches going "kilometers" away from the origin, if you are doing anything advanced, nowadays, maybe use DOTS

[worldly cave]

wouldnt it be better to then split it up?

even the largest open world games typically segment the playable area in some capacity

[lapis gate]

oh yeah absolutely, easy too since landmasses would be islands

[azure pond]

i'm not sure how much it matters nowadays. it's different if you're doing a space simulation, and you are modeling real coordinates

the problem is unity physics

and BRP

[lapis gate]

that's another thing too, even if you move the world wouldn't that also screw with Unity's physics

maybe if you stuck to only uses forces I guess

Well I guess rigidbodies does provide some utility for teleporting the player

[azure pond]

haha well physics is supposed to be the same everywhere under every reference frame, that's general relativity

which of course unity physics implements

if you move the frame of reference literally nothing should change 🙂

this is quite literally true i think in unity physics, because PhysX 3.x or whatever that they use, models momentum

but you don't have to move at all

i really don't htink this is an issue

[lapis gate]

yeah makes sense naturally but rigidbodies don't always like to be moved when in motion

[azure pond]

the problems come from glitchy optimizations

[lapis gate]

may just do a custom CC in that case

[azure pond]

if you move a rigidbody in the correct place, it will retain its momentum and behave correctly

springs and joints are hacks

it really depends what features you use

[hollow venture]

hiiiiiiiii

[hollow venture]

im back

good afternoon, how should i go about putting a volume component to work only on UI objects and nothing else?
unity 6 HDRP

im making a fnaf game

do you need any help with something?

because this is a help channel

[hollow venture]

yes but it says talk channle

[worldly cave]

there is no general or off topic channel here

read the description.

[hollow venture]

but i do want some working

[lapis gate]

Do volumes work on the UI? If so then there's options to cull layers on it which should probably work

[left bobcat]

yes they do and layers seem to apply to everything

[hollow venture]

but i do want some workers*

[left bobcat]

for me at least, not sure what i've done wrong

[lapis gate]

Well, if they dont work then that only implies the UI is being rasterized with the final rendering and then the volume is being applied

[left bobcat]

so what can i do ? there is no way unity doesnt have a way to create ui only volumes

[lapis gate]

I know how to do full screen shaders with the UI, but never really toyed with Unity's native effects with it

[left bobcat]

dang

thats annoying

i dont wanna write a whole shader rn 😭

[plain dagger]

post processing normally wont affect UI so wtf are you trying to do 😆

[left bobcat]

cus i havea world space canvas and my retro style volumes affect, it text is completely unreadable, so i wanna have a volume component that i will use to tone down the effects on the ui only

[left bobcat]

it does affect ui

[plain dagger]

*overlay ui

[lapis gate]

I feel like you can maybe do something crude like a secondary camera and world canvas then applyin g it

[left bobcat]

i have world space not overlay

[plain dagger]

then post processing will affect it

[lapis gate]

yeah, secondary camera idea

[left bobcat]

yes but i want two different post processing, one only for UI and one only for evrything else

as you can see the retro filter is covering the ui makes text completely unreadable

[lapis gate]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.render-pipelines.universal@7.2/manual/camera-stacking.html

[left bobcat]

ah ive done that before, are you sure this is the only solution though? i also read that this tanks performance

[lapis gate]

if you're just rendering the UI, no

reminder that portal game rendered your scene twice

[plain dagger]

Does each camera get its own post processing pass then?

[left bobcat]

what ? why ? 😭

[worldly cave]

it had to

[left bobcat]

oh wait

[worldly cave]

for the portals

[left bobcat]

i know why lol

[worldly cave]

but to be fair

[left bobcat]

yes

[worldly cave]

portal also deliberately had very basic geometry

[left bobcat]

think so

[worldly cave]

for probably that exact reason

when portal 2 came around they basically got to show off a bit more

[plain dagger]

Im not 100% but render graph post processing can be executed at varying points: https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.2/Documentation/Manual/urp/customize/custom-pass-injection-points.html

[left bobcat]

it has culling mask right

[lapis gate]

I'm not entirely sure about the volumes, but full screen shaders would work with this idea

[plain dagger]

volumes just change what post processing is applied so it would work the same

it doesnt change how post processing works

[left bobcat]

the camera trick didnt work unfortunately

[plain dagger]

how about using the render objects pass to render world UI after post processing? https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.2/Documentation/Manual/urp/renderer-features/renderer-feature-render-objects.html

[left bobcat]

that could work

lets see

[lapis gate]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmCjPctKkjw
Pretty sure they are doing split post-processing there

[stray oxide]

Hey does anyone know what is the solution to shrinking the view because I can just see the endless void. Not I'm not getting what I want on google

[lapis gate]

Far clipping plane on the camera?

[stray oxide]

I was trying to do that but it's stuck at 1000 and I can't see the option on my cinemachine

[left bobcat]

thats urp

im using hdrp

[worldly cave]

not relevant to your issue but can i just ask why youre using hdrp for what looks to be a very stylized heavily filtered game 🤔

[copper gust]

And handcrafted occlusion portal brushing

[royal geode]

hi everyone

[left bobcat]

well its a photorealistic horror, just that were playing through the lens of a damaged go pro

it looks very nice without the retro filter

[worldly cave]

idk in my opinion if youre already going to filter it like that hdrp seems like overkill

[left bobcat]

without

partially the reason as to why i decided to go with a retro filter, i am using ai generated models

[worldly cave]

oh

[royal geode]

hi can you guys give me you idea about my game

[worldly cave]

im not gonna say anything

[copper gust]

😔

[lapis gate]

it's not so much retro but vhs filtering

[royal geode]

it is an open world with turn base battle

[worldly cave]

actually i will say something, real artists rule

[lapis gate]

and I think the light scattering from hdrp volumetric does help it

[left bobcat]

well it is intended haha

maybe ill make it an optional toggle

[worldly cave]

idea?

[royal geode]

it is an open world with turn base battle

[worldly cave]

this is a questions channel

if you want feedback #1180170818983051344 is probably more appropriate

[royal geode]

here a small video

[stray oxide]

Anyone know why "Far" is stuck at 1000?

[worldly cave]

what do you mean stuck?

[stuck flower]

Probably set by another component like a Cinemachine virtual camera

[worldly cave]

like you cant go past 1000? pretty sure thats an intentional cap

[stray oxide]

can't shrink or increase

[stray oxide]

yeah I was thinking that but I can't find anywhere I can change the render distance

[stuck flower]

Do you have a Cinemachine camera?

[stray oxide]

yeah

[stuck flower]

So change the far clip plane there

[stray oxide]

aaaaaa no wait I see, I didn't notice this guy here, there was a dropdown 😛

thank you!

GUYS MY Unity is broken

It cannot import animations damn

Sh*t for 2 weeks I'm like this

I tried everything

Import constraints, custom properties animated

Blender check, the same

It doesn't import!

[copper gust]

i feel like you know there's an animation channel

[south summit]

Ok reply there

[copper gust]

I do not follow the animation channel because I do not deal with animations

[stuck flower]

Do you want all 20,000 people to all individually reply "I dunno"

Also I just checked the channel and I don't see a post from you there in a while

[south summit]

Xd sorry

[hexed path]

I'm making an openworld VR demo and looking for game art on the Unity Asset Store. I have some, not huge, budget. I'm looking for URP environments, probably nature or cyberpunk. Does anyone recommend one asset over another? I'm hoping for it to have a fully fleshed out demo world, rather than be an asset pack that I need to build myself.

Maybe max $200-$300?

[worldly cave]

try fab

[half ridge]

also TurboSquid

[lapis gate]

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/package/264733
Will be off by 70% to 95% in the next few days

So far they released two packs at 95%

[proud lion]

Hry question where do I download gtag movement at?

[gusty abyss]

How can Shadow map on point lights that are set to, Every frame its needed. lag? theres 6 lights and it lags the res is on medium and my pc can run cod on max so thats not my pcs power

[quick sage]

Is there a game developer here ?

[worldly cave]

odds are yes

[lapis gate]

no

[vivid cedar]

No game devs here!

[slow dirge]

Why would you even assume something so outrageous?

yeah thats just how discord bots work

[viral hill]

how are you rendering the mirror? nvm i see the component now. you should be able to get away with using an unlit shader

[dense reef]

@worldly cave does UNITY tag mean you are from Unity team or any one can use it?

[worldly cave]

means im fly

[balmy kettle]

it's the server tag, unity staff have a specific role

[turbid zephyr]

yo wsp im trying to become an indie game developer im new to all of this. anyone got any tips or smth?

[gusty abyss]

how do i copy were the Selector is it's a prefab that part is at 0,0,0 i want to move a pivot but it puts it up here i tried copying the world pos it did not work

Where to ask version control question?

I'm using Github

[tight walrus]

Hey there, new to Game Development.
Recently I have seen some games going popular in social media specially "Chilla's Art Studio" games.
I was wondering if its possible to make that kind off games in Unity, and how much time would it take to learn the engine?

Thanks.

[lapis gate]

Game example

[tight walrus]

Parasocial, The Radio Station, The Convenience Store, The Karoke.

[worldly cave]

you can make pretty much anything in unity

that goes for most engines

unity, unreal godot etc

skys the limit really

[tight walrus]

How much time would it really take to learn Unity?
I have no experience.

[worldly cave]

well

you never stop learning

lol

there isnt a cut off point where you have "learnt" it

[tight walrus]

thats true, it took me 3 days to figure out how to make playermovements

[worldly cave]

but the sooner you start the sooner you will get to making the kind of games you want

[vagrant root]

:teacher: Unity Learn ↗

Over 750 hours of free live and on-demand learning content for all levels of experience!

[lapis gate]

Seems fine for unity yeah. Unreal is nice if you do really want that realistic factor, but these all have a bunch of filtering which would work fine with unity

[worldly cave]

i have maybe well over 300 hours in unity and im still learning new things

[tight walrus]

If I'm not wrong these are called PS1 Themed games.

[worldly cave]

the term is PSX

[tight walrus]

My bad.

[lapis gate]

depends, there's a lot more going on here than simple PSX

lighting specifically

[worldly cave]

i mean

the problem is

with psx people just associate like

pixelated low poly models

but its a bit more nuanced

[tight walrus]

What is the limitation in Unity?
Is there no limit to creation?

[worldly cave]

pretty much no limit

the limit really is your imagination

[lapis gate]

comes down to preference between engines

[worldly cave]

and time and money and a lot of other things

unity vs unreal is entirely preference

[tight walrus]

You can do the same things in both right?

[worldly cave]

yes

its just the workflows that are different

[lapis gate]

I'd head over to itchio and check out those games. Most are Unity/Godot but you can find Unreal once in a while

but they all have that similar vibe

[tight walrus]

Btw, Why is the size so big? I just have a 3MB house, Easy3D Roads and PlayerMovement.

[worldly cave]

because thats your entire engine

if you want to see your individual projects file size

[tight walrus]

How do I know my Game Size?

[worldly cave]

find the projects folder

and look at it

[tight walrus]

It is my project sized at 1.8GB

[worldly cave]

your project folder is just \unity?

are you positive lol?

it doesnt look like this for example?

[worldly cave]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tight walrus]

Are you running Windows 11?

[slow dirge]

A project is not your final program size. It contains a lot of cache, intermediate files, raw assets, etc..

[tight walrus]

Alright. Can you tell me some good basic youtube channels for learning

[fleet crescent]

is there any way i can group multiple objects together without "parenting" them and messing up the transform component like empty game objects do?

[slow dirge]

I'd recommend the beginner pathways on Unity learn.

!learn

[vagrant root]

:teacher: Unity Learn ↗

Over 750 hours of free live and on-demand learning content for all levels of experience!

[slow dirge]

What do you imply by grouping? Moving them together? Or just logical grouping like in a folder?

[fleet crescent]

logical grouping, i cant find a way to do it in the app

[slow dirge]

There isn't really a way to do it in unity by default. People use empty game objects for that usually.

[fleet crescent]

damn

[slow dirge]

What do you mean by "messing up the transform component" though?

[fleet crescent]

mainly during rotations (2d games), usually i can rotate on the z axis and its a regular rotation, but then if i parent lets say a rectangle to something and then try rotating it again, it turns into a parallelogram for some reason and distorts, doesnt look like its rotating on the same axis as it is non parented

[slow dirge]

That just means that the parent had non uniformly scaled transform. If you're gonna be using an empty for grouping, make sure it's positioned at 000, has 000 rotation and 111 scale.

[tight walrus]

How do I move my terrain to the plane area?

[fleet crescent]

oh thanks

[slow dirge]

A plane and a terrain have different pivots. You'll need to offset one or the other manually.

[tight walrus]

Fixed it,
But facing another issue why is it blending into it?

or is it supposed to be like that?

and should I be using any different software for building terrains and stuff?

[slow dirge]

It's not blending. It's overlapping. And that's normal when you have 2 object's overlapping.
Not entirely sure what the purpose of that plane..?

[noble locust]

How long can I expect a 260k vertex asset to take importing into unity

[copper gust]

not that long

[noble locust]

It’s been 25 minutes

[lapis gate]

260k vertices and 500m triangles

[slow dirge]

Does it seem like it's doing something? Check the task manager and unity progress bar.

[noble locust]

Unity progress bar has been white the whole time

[slow dirge]

Sounds like a freeze then.

[noble locust]

It’s the second time it happens

[lapis gate]

what's the file size of it

[noble locust]

368mb

[lapis gate]

shouldnt be too long. I guess probably corrupt

[proud lion]

Hey i have a question where do I import textures?

[noble locust]

Corrupt??

[lapis gate]

try exporting it / downloading it again

[slow dirge]

In the editor

[noble locust]

That took so long too😭😭

[worldly cave]

You can just drag and drpp them into your project

[lapis gate]

if you downloaded it then open it up in blender and try exporting it yourself again

[noble locust]

I exported it from blender

[lapis gate]

sounds like a blender export issue then

[tight walrus]

I would not need the plane? just the terrain works?

[slow dirge]

Yes. Why would you need a plane in addition to a terrain?

[tight walrus]

Alright, Thanks man.

what are these called? this doesn't look 3D

[viral hill]

it's a method of rendering thigs that are far away

[tight walrus]

I could use them in my game?

like close

[viral hill]

if that's the visual style you want, sure

[tight walrus]

Thanks. Do you know how to make it?

[viral hill]

you dont need anything fancy. just intersect 2 quads and slap a texture onto them

[tight walrus]

Alright, Time to learn that.

[viral hill]

learn what

[tight walrus]

to do that ;-;

[copper gust]

It's called billboarding

[viral hill]

theres no real learning required here as long as you know how to add a texture to an object

[tight walrus]

Oh okay

[viral hill]

billboards imply that they always look at the camera. these are just forms of impostors

[tight walrus]

and im new to unity. do I need any other softwares thats gonna essentially help me get good at unity? like building stuff, etc

[viral hill]

nothing other than unity will help you "get good" at unity. you can choose to learn 3d modelling in other programs if that's what you want to do, but there are plenty of premade assets that you can use online

[tight walrus]

Okay, Do you know any good assests to build roads?

[viral hill]

there are lots on the asset store

[tight walrus]

downloaded a model it looks like this for some reason

[viral hill]

i believe you can enable alpha clipping on the material and that should be enough

you might need to make it transparent too

[tight walrus]

man you are a genius

[slow dirge]

You should just go over the basics properly.

[viral hill]

i dont think this is the proper way of doing it even though it works. i remember that there is a different method but i cant remember what it is. you should look into this more.

[viral hill]

what fundamentals do you think he's missing? this isnt a super basic issue

[hollow venture]

hi

[slow dirge]

The basics of working with the editor, terrain, materials, importing assets, etc...
It's all covered in the beginner pathways.

[viral hill]

i mean, he already did everything on his own so far. the only thing he needed help with was knowing how to cull the black parts of the texture.

[slow dirge]

And then they're gonna ask about the next trivial thing that is already covered in the pathways or the documentation.
This discord is not a free tutoring hub. They should learn at least some stuff themselves.

[viral hill]

as someone with years of experience myself, i didnt know how to fix this until i asked about it in this discord recently. this isnt trivial by any means

[slow dirge]

Maybe because you didn't learn the basics properly yourself, so you have gaps in your knowledge. 🤷‍♂️

[viral hill]

again, what part of this is basic? the reason i asked about it here in the past is because i didnt know what to even look up so that i could find a solution.

[waxen patrol]

Why so hostile in a “community” discord?

[viral hill]

i dont blame him for doing the same

[tight walrus]

This is my first time using a Game Engine, I came here to learn about the fundementals through people rather than in a video.

[slow dirge]

What part of it? If it's the alpha clipping, you learn about it when learning about materials, shaders and textures.

[viral hill]

i went through the basics years ago, lots of which i never used until years later. even if i had learned it, i wouldve surely forgotten something as small as this

[viral hill]

you cannot possibly expect me to remember what one button does and how it solves these edge cases

especially using it years later for the first time

[tight walrus]

I was stuck on some stuff that I couldn't find on YouTube or any Reddit post. I tried fixing the terrain from 11PM. It's 10:30AM now.

[slow dirge]

Again, this we don't provide private tutor services here. People are being paid money for stuff like that. You should put some effort into learning the basics on your own. There is a dedicated resource for that. And many third party resources online.

[waxen patrol]

Remind me not to ask for any help in here 😂

[slow dirge]

No, but I expect you to go over tutorials again when you're starting working on something you don't remember. I do it all the time.

[viral hill]

i refuse to sift through potentially dozens of tutorials (since i dont exactly know what my problem is even called) just to find simple solutions that i have forgotten. if i knew what it was called, that's a completely different story

[slow dirge]

To me it looks like you're just trying stuff randomly until it works. Your question about terrain and plane indicates that.

[slow dirge]

You don't need to. You can look at the documentation quickly. If you did go over the basics, you should at least know where to start looking.

[viral hill]

please show me how i should "look through the docs quickly" to find a solution. like i said, i literally would not know where to start looking OR what to even call this

[waxen patrol]

Both of yall chill, it’s all good! Agree to disagree and spend your time helping me instead LOL

[slow dirge]

• Analyze the problem.
• Realize that it's related to how the object is rendered.
• Realize that it's related to a material, since that's what decides how an object is rendered.
• Open the docs, go to render or material related sections.
• Read the page overview quickly or the descriptions of the categories.
• find the page related to the standard shader/material you're using. Read through its properties.

[viral hill]

did you ask a question?

[waxen patrol]

Nah but I’m one day into this game dev journey so yes, there will be plenty of questions to come.

[viral hill]

"Realize that it's related to a material, since that's what decides how an object is rendered."

i did something completely different. I thought this was an issue with the texture import settings, which is why i asked here after messing around with them to no avail

[tight walrus]

Umm, maybe not here......

[viral hill]

now look at this through the lens of a beginner. they have little clue how objects are rendered, even after doing tutorials. this stuff comes with experience, and even then, my experience bit me in the ass

@tight walrus @waxen patrol dont let this discourage the both of you. it's a simple disagreement from two different perspectives. you will not be shamed for making mistakes or lacking knowledge. if you are shamed, ignore it.

[proud lion]

Hello, if I may ask how do I hollow stuff?

[sonic ferry]

hi, trying to install a unity version and im getting this error every time, third time ive tried. I reset my PC a couple of hrs ago since I was running low on storage and all so this is where im at, but not sure how to even check any error logs. The first one I installed, 6.2 installed just fine, but the one im trying to isnt (6.0.34f).

[viral hill]

!install

[vagrant root]

When Unity fails to install checklist

• Make sure you have enough space including on C: drive.
• Check that it's not being blocked by antivirus/security programs.
• Look through the logs for a real reason why the setup fails they are pinned [here](#💻┃unity-talk message).

If you still have issues, perform a clean install in another location:

• Install the Hub and Unity in a non-system drive or a clean new folder in the root of C: drive.
• Failing that use the recovery Refresh option or reinstall OS entirely then repeat the previous step.

[viral hill]

what do you mean by hollow

[sonic ferry]

[proud lion]

Like hollow like the outside is still there but the inside isnt like a donut!

[viral hill]

you're trying to remove vertices from a mesh?

[proud lion]

Huh? Im just trying to make a pit.....

[sonic ferry]

u could try adding planes in this way

ez pit

what are some super complex c# things for 2d games

[sonic ferry]

[storm patio]

depends on your experience and what you consider complex tbh

[sleek forum]

show me urs

[storm patio]

as a beginner inheritance might seem complex for doing tiles ig

[sonic ferry]

NETWORKING

try that. Make an online game

[storm patio]

or if you're not super experienced with math, then even typical vector math might seem daunting

[sleek forum]

how does inheritance work

[sonic ferry]

ngl quaternions and rotations arent my thing

[storm patio]

oh yeah definitely this

[sonic ferry]

good. Go

oh wrong dude

[storm patio]

Definitely not a beginner topic lol

[sonic ferry]

they asked

[sleek forum]

why would we do inheritance instead of copy and paste codes what if we inherit stuff we dont want or need

[sonic ferry]

is this ragebait ?

[proud lion]

Can I get simple help now ooor..... cause all im trying to do is to make a cylinder hollow

[sleek forum]

im a beginner

[storm patio]

changes can propagate instead of applying the same change 50 times

you can use the supertype as a common entry point

[sonic ferry]

sounds like a 3d graphics engine thing, not necessarily unity

u can in unity, but might as well just use blender or maya

[storm patio]

https://dontasktoask.com

[sonic ferry]

you know, things specifically made for making 3d stuff

[proud lion]

How can I do it in blender than?

[storm patio]

if you're asking modifying a mesh, you'll have to ask in a space for blender or whatever tool you're using

idk blender so

[sonic ferry]

manual install boss

[sleek forum]

what do {get; private set;} do

from what i see

instead of just a blue box next to it with .net installed

it just becomes a wrench

what does it do different

[viral hill]

what difference does that make

[sonic ferry]

from my understanding, those set the get/set of a variable. So anyone with access to the class can get the variable value specifically, but makes its setter private

[sonic ferry]

idk, i meant to attach this, didnt work ig. But it looks like things are moving now

[sleek forum]

it can also be connected with dots right?

[sonic ferry]

yes, thats what the getter does

but not the setter. Since its private, only inside the class can you modify the value

[sleek forum]

what does a setter do

[sonic ferry]

sets the value...

[storm patio]

that's an auto-implemented property with a getter and a private setter

[sleek forum]

to another variable or function?

[sonic ferry]

to that variable specifically

[storm patio]

to an automatically generated "backing field", in this case

[sonic ferry]

oh

what that mean

[storm patio]

a property is basically some methods acting like fields

[sleek forum]

what does adding abstract before class do

[storm patio]

it makes them abstract

these are things you can google tbh

[sonic ferry]

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/keywords/abstract

[storm patio]

would be much more productive for you

[sleek forum]

why would people do encapsulation instead of making it public

[storm patio]

properties can't store values, fields do
you need a "backing field" to actually store the value
in this case, the backing field is automatically generated

dude, you can google this stuff

[sleek forum]

i thought i could ask here tho

[sonic ferry]

wrong

[storm patio]

there will be well-written, time-tested answers that explain it better than we can

[storm patio]

you can, but it will be better, faster, and easier for you to just research this yourself

if you've already researched and don't understand a specific part, or if something's not working as expected, that's when you'd come here for help

can you call animation without strings?

[sonic ferry]

lmaoo bruhh is blocked by this server ??

[storm patio]

could be that no-one knows, no-one's free, or you didn't provide enough info

[storm patio]

yes, unnecessary spam is blocked

[sonic ferry]

r u a mod ?

[storm patio]

no

[sonic ferry]

gotchu

[storm patio]

yes

[sleek forum]

how

anim.setBool(animation, true);

[storm patio]

you can use hashes of the parameters/state names

[sleek forum]

oh i never heard of that before

i only use strings

[storm patio]

it still involves a string to get the hash though

[sonic ferry]

least u learned something new! :D

[storm patio]

strings are fine tbh

[sleek forum]

oh ok

strings cause performance issues when calling certain parameters or functions right?

[balmy kettle]

hashing the strings is what those methods are doing internally, so if you hash it once and reuse that hash instead of using a string every time it's ever so slightly better (same with tags)

[storm patio]

not issues, no.

sometimes it's less performant, but it's not to the point of perf issues

[sleek forum]

is it a good idea to make all function variables class level variables?

[storm patio]

no

[sweet charm]

Wdym "class level"

[balmy kettle]

that's what a field is

[storm patio]

stuff specific to methods should stay local, only if they need to persist or are relevant to other methods should they be members

[sonic ferry]

ye, like ur public question up above

[sleek forum]

instead of lets say
private void Hi()
{
int i = 0;
}
you do:
private int i;
private void Hi()
{
i = 0;
}

[sweet charm]

U can just say global

[sleek forum]

wouldnt global be considered public?

[balmy kettle]

that's not global

[storm patio]

c# doesn't have globals

[sonic ferry]

exposed!!!

[storm patio]

no, that's a different concept

[sleek forum]

is it a good idea to serialize every private variable you have?

[sonic ferry]

if u wanna see it in the editor, sure

[balmy kettle]

only the ones that need to be serialized

[storm patio]

public/private is an access level, who is allowed to access something
global is a scope, where something lives

[storm patio]

you can use the debug inspector for that. you should only serialize the ones that need to be serialized

[sonic ferry]

i thought thats what serializefield does

[stuck flower]

Serializing takes time and disk space. A small amount, but why take up that space unnecessarily? Only serialize it if you need to.

[sonic ferry]

whats serialized then

[storm patio]

saving the value into the scene/prefab

[sleek forum]

is it a good idea to nonserialize public variables u dont need to see then

[storm patio]

if it's a trasient state like movement or whatever, you wouldn't serialize them

[stuck flower]

You can view any property, serialized or not, with the debug inspector.

[storm patio]

you can't, unity serializes any public fields

[sonic ferry]

even dictionaries??? O:

[sleek forum]

you can nonserialize it

[stuck flower]

If its public it's gonna be serialized. You can hide it but that doesn't stop it from being serialized.

[balmy kettle]

only things that can be serialized

[sonic ferry]

exposed!!

[sweet charm]

Ok my bad. I got mixed up with C++. But ain't static considered global?

[storm patio]

no

[sleek forum]

i dont think so

[balmy kettle]

not really, but it's about as close as you'd get in c#

[stuck flower]

No, they're static. They belong to a class still, they're not just floating in the aether. C# is strictly OOP, everything is a member of something that extends object

[storm patio]

i don't remember the behavior here actually, i don't use NonSerialized

[stuck flower]

Even if that thing is a Type

[sleek forum]

it just hides public variables from inspector

[storm patio]

no, that would be HideInInspector

[sleek forum]

u can also use [NonSerialize]

[balmy kettle]

not just hiding from the inspector, it tells unity not to serialize it. it's effectively the opposite of SerializeField

[storm patio]

they do different things

NonSerialized makes it actually not serialized then i guess
HideInInspector just makes it not show up in the inspector

hm, does stuff marked HideInInspector show up in the debug inspector

[sleek forum]

yea isnt nonserialize just hiding it in inspector too?

[storm patio]

no

[balmy kettle]

probably, HideInInspector variables are still serialized

[sonic ferry]

what does serialized mean??

[storm patio]

serialization is saving the value to the scene or a prefab

[sonic ferry]

the only time ived used it is to show private variables in inspector

[storm patio]

i answered you already

[sonic ferry]

wdym saved

like instead of overriding the default value ?

from the inspector

[storm patio]

try opening the scene file in a text editor and searching for the name of a serialized field

[sonic ferry]

still updating :C

[balmy kettle]

you don't need to have unity open to do that

[storm patio]

do you have existing projects

you can just use a scene file from any project

[sleek forum]

what does overloading do

[lapis gate]

https://www.humblebundle.com/software/leartes-black-friday-mega-game-dev-bundle-software
Apparently a new humblebundle from the same studio. They seem to really want to make a sale apparently

[sleek forum]

why dont we just use lists instead of arrays

[storm patio]

you could

they're more expensive

but only slightly in the grand scheme of things

[sleek forum]

what expensive

[storm patio]

they take up slightly more memory and take marginally longer to access

lists use arrays inside anyways

[noble locust]

I cut the model down from 520k tris to 298k tris which halved its Mb size but my unity is still struggling with no progress (3 minutes so far)

[lapis gate]

Try the mesh cleanup options. I'd even test using some decimate modifier and reduce it a ton and try importing that

[slow dirge]

I'd try importing it in a new empty project to make sure it's not an issue with your project.

[lapis gate]

Unity does freak out a bit if your topology is bad

but usually it'll resolve it eventually and you may be presented with a disfigured mesh

im going to import it as a very minimal cockpit (trying to import an aircraft)

it took a lot less time exporting so lets hope this works

i have a feeling it is the canopy of the aircraft

[lapis gate]

probably a ton of non-manifold edges

where you can toggle the statistics you can usually enable highlighting of edges/faces that can be problematic

n-gons can be problematic too if blender unity can't figure out how to triangulate them

[storm patio]

stuff in unity exists in scenes

you might not have one open, thus not seeing anything

[clear hearth]

Oh that's good. Could you please give to advise?

[proud lion]

Def use blender

[proud lion]

Where can I find that at?

[clear hearth]

But I use the Unity

[storm patio]

wherever you saved the scene

in the project view

[clear hearth]

I don't use blender the project

[storm patio]

@clear hearth start here.

[proud lion]

Idk where that is

[storm patio]

you don't know where you saved your files?

[proud lion]

Yerp

[storm patio]

did you even save

[daring dock]

yes yes

[clear hearth]

Okay. Thanks for everything.

[proud lion]

No but I left the tab open when I got back it wasn't open

[daring dock]

thanks yes there is a problem with the size. We are making something like social in Unity. The image on the server is only 165 KB but when Unity loads it the size becomes 4.4 MB in memory. We have many posts so this big size causes issues and I am trying to reduce it
on mobile with out compression it's take 2 gb from memory
vs with compression it's take 700 mb

sounds like a good lesson to save often then

[storm patio]

please don't spam.

sending it once is fine.

you may have a scene in the /Temp folder, though it's been a while since anyone's brought that up, your work may just be lost

or if you think you might have a save,
in the project tab, there's a search bar. try searching t:Scene there.
