I got a model imported to Unity it was an obj but all the parts are now inside and I can edit each one but the problem is when I am in the game the model just disappears and usualy it takes a long time to test as it's an vr game and my laptop doesn't support PCVR.

[frosty pilot]

And if you have Nvidia install Studio Driver

[formal valve]

Good thoughts (I'm currently using Auto Graphics API, which seems to default to DirectX11), though it feels more like a "Unity shouldn't be calling this" issue than a graphics API issue? Or maybe it's an issue with the GPU profiler itself? On the frame debugger, I don't see UpdateReflectionProbeAtlas showing up at all, and in RenderDoc it again shows up as taking up no rendering time.

[astral sparrow]

So I don't even really know how to ask this question, but I'm working through this tutorial and got myself stuck.

I made two cubes, then clicked something I shouldn't have here:

And now I can't see anything that I put in the scene properly. How do I fix this? And how do I move more freely in the scene to see the 3d landscape?

[potent moss]

is there some way of differentiating between a left and right click on a button?

[plain dagger]

if you use the event system pointer events you may be able to?

[plain dagger]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.ugui@1.0/api/UnityEngine.EventSystems.PointerEventData.html#UnityEngine_EventSystems_PointerEventData_button ?

you would have to use IPointerClickHandler yourself

[gray frigate]

Try selecting an object and pressing F

This will focus on it and update the near and far clipping distances appropriately

[astral sparrow]

So I did that and it's pretty messy

Let me see if I can screen record real quick

[stuck flower]

Maybe show a full screenshot

[astral sparrow]

So I have two cubes, this long gray one that's supposed to be the ground and the red cube. The scene camera is just stuck parallel to the objects, so I can't get a top view or anything and it's super clunky to try to see what I'm doing?

[gray frigate]

are you unable to rotate the camera by holding the right mouse button and dragging?

you're using the View Tool to pan the camera around, but that won't rotate it

[astral sparrow]

I've been googling this for an hour and all I got were answers about the game camera 😂 I'm glad the solution was this simple, though I wish the tutorials I'm following made any mention at all that this was how you actually navigate a scene

hey guys can I upload a screen shot of a problem im having when building the game

After I build. I changed the name of my project in project setting product name and I have files from the old name. Can I delete those?

[near wigeon]

just rebuild in a new folder 🤔

product name doesnt change the name of the project

[frosty pilot]

Hmm how u opening dlls from FLStudio?

[near wigeon]

probably got auto assigned.
VST plugins are just dlls in most cases

[hot crow]

[digital furnace]

thank you

[frosty pilot]

Just delete 2 folders and exe with old name

[near wigeon]

the video aint even embedded .. do it a format it supports

"not working" without a video is guesswork at best

[hot crow]

It work?

[frosty pilot]

guesswork level 2

[near wigeon]

can barely see whats going on and you didn't show how they are setup

got lots of code / inspectorstuff going on..all you're showing is a non active Mesh Renderer

[frosty pilot]

You can view the objects in more detail in the scene window

[hot crow]

Can you explain what you need to see exactly

[hot crow]

Just the scene?

[frosty pilot]

I would first ask the question when did the bug appear?

[frosty pilot]

From the player's perspective, nothing is clear. You can zoom in on the scene tab and look from a different angle

[hot crow]

A bug occurs when I add multiple different models and try to make them appear randomly

[quasi atlas]

Sup everyone!
Does anyone knows about any issues installing unity this days? I mean, I was returning to my practices and installed the last LTS version 3 days ago, i noticed today there was a new LTS version and i tried to install that one and i can't.
I deleted everything and tried again and nothing, tried with the 6.3, the 6.0 and even the 2022 lts version that are on the Hub.
PST: No storage problems, nothing have change since 3 days ago were i was able to install it.
Any ideas?

[frosty pilot]

I see huge box collider

[hot crow]

When I change the collider the hand of Robot doesn't work so I keep it like this

[frosty pilot]

Well problem in collider

[hot crow]

And this free package

[near wigeon]

!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.

[near wigeon]

certainly if you used a free package it comes with some type of setup documentation ?

[hot crow]

But before I add another box the boxes worke but when I add another faild

[lilac hearth]

nah its like an involved thing because I have no clue where to start and I've tried everything (documentation mainly)

[hot crow]

It have

[near wigeon]

start with the documentation

in most cases though if you need to ask.. you ain't ready yet..

[near wigeon]

so read the documentation and you might've setup something incorrectly. Using third party tools, you still need basic understanding of the unity editor to debug issues

[hot crow]

I read it but when I change anything inside the project it becomes incorrect

[lilac hearth]

I have already gone through the documentation, I can't spin up anything functional at all. My code works but the furthest I got was movement working

[hot crow]

How can I solve this problem 😭😭

[lilac hearth]

what problem is it?

[hot crow]

i was working on realvirtual free package and try to modify on it with somethings and it is not working as well
the problem is when the production line is moving the boxes on it disappears , i have 2 objects one non-defect and the other is defect when i try to show the 2 types random it doesn't work , does anyone have any idea why it is not working?

[lilac hearth]

no clue about that, but you should ask in a forum. Never used realvirtual

[near wigeon]

if you haven't made a full gameloop / singleplayer game you wont likely make anything good in netcode. You have to understand core concepts like what info to use on server and what on client / locally

[lilac hearth]

I've made full games for projects dude, I said i cant make anything functional as in i cant make anything that works with netcode

im not a very good dev, granted, but I still want to learn this

[near wigeon]

its literally sync information from client to client, there isn't anything different than a regular game.. Which info you need to pass?

I suggest you look over the BiteSize samples the Unity netcode github has

it has most of the systems done in practical easy to digest ways

[lilac hearth]

I need to pass position & y rotation of the player's body and x rotation of the players' head

i guess more but thats basically what

[near wigeon]

thats the least of your problems, NetworkTransform already takes care of syncing that easy stuff

[lilac hearth]

will look at

https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/com.unity.multiplayer.samples.bitesize?tab=readme-ov-file#bitesize-samples-overview

[subtle geyser]

Yo, can someone help me and tell me why is it that when I insert a prefab into my build it does not pop up. It only pops up in the hierarchy, but not in game visible.

[near wigeon]

is it infront of a camera?

[subtle geyser]

No

[subtle geyser]

Basically, I just tried to import it from my assets and it just doesn’t pop up. It is a prefab.

[near wigeon]

popup where ?

press F and focus on it

[gray frigate]

if you drag a prefab directly into the hierarchy, it will use whatever position the prefab's Transform has

which could be a very goofy position

[subtle geyser]

It only pops up in the hierarchy, and I dragged it directly into the project, not into the hierarchy so I had my own position for it. I have a point light in this prefab and that’s the only thing that I see I don’t see any of the mesh or anything like that like the model?

[gray frigate]

what does "directly into the project" mean?

you're going to need to show screenshots of what you're doing here

[mystic oriole]

So whats the deal with speed tree? I just can't have trees on my terrain unless I pay unity hundreds of dollars every month?

out of everything they could possibly paywall, they make it trees

amazing

[potent geyser]

You can have trees. Speedtree isn't a requirement.

It's also third party, which was acquired by Unity. It was always a license based tool.

[mystic oriole]

It seems that in order for the vertex based tree wind animations to work properly, I need the specific speedtree shaders no?

[potent geyser]

If they're meant to be used with it, I suppose so.

[mystic oriole]

I swear it used to not be this difficult in the past. Now every thread when I search for "how to do trees in urp" is just like "buy speedtree or you're shit out of luck"

[slow dirge]

You could probably write your own shader that supports the feature.

Also, I have a vague memory of it working with standard shader on BIRP as well(assuming there's a variant for that). Not sure about other render pipelines.

[gray frigate]

isn't Speedtree the tool used to make trees?

I've used Broccoli Tree Creator before, and it produces assets that work with the built-in speedtree shaders

[quaint wagon]

I'm confused and continue to be confused broadly by scale in unity, i measured out my room to be ~12x12 feet aka ~3.7x3.7 meters, that should sync 1-1 to the scale of this plane being 3.7,1,3.7 but it seems huge, and my player's height is set to 1.73 (camera height anyways) aka 5'6" and yet this scale seems all wrong in the game and out, it seems way too big??? fov of 70 which may be a bit off but the scale still seems wrong and i dont really, i did partially ask about this before but i'm still confused and its driving me crazy and making further develiopment impossible

[tawny quail]

The default plane isn't a unit scale, its width is 10m.

[quaint wagon]

well then thats 0.37, which is way way too small no?

[tawny quail]

See how it compares

[quaint wagon]

way too small

feels and looks that way anyways

[tawny quail]

That looks like 12x12 ft yeah

[quaint wagon]

am i crazy? it loos so much bigger when i stamd in the corner

is it the fov??? the camera some other way??? just the fact theres no walls or ceiling

[tawny quail]

Yeah lack of environmental stuff might be throwing you off in how it feels. A textured floor/walls/ceiling and a desk would probably help to see it better. But also irl your view is different to a flat camera somewhat (since you also have actual depth).

[quaint wagon]

fair

is there ways or tricks to make it feel better in that sense?

[tawny quail]

As for that, I'm not entirely sure. In the past I've mostly increased the fov to a bit higher so it doesn't feel like you are hunched forward, and then I place/scale stuff to where it feels good but not constraining myself to being physically accurate.

[quaint wagon]

alright

i'll see

[quaint wagon]

thank you

i thought there was like a bot, oh well

wait thats the blender server nvm

[misty meadow]

Guys, I need advice on making a good horror game, but I need to know what people generally like in a horror game.

[onyx stratus]

Co - op

[fair cove]

Depends on the kind of horror your going for, is it going to be jump scares? Phycological? Gorey? Whats your gameplay objective? Are you being hunted by something? Trying to solve a murder/mystery? Is the environment trying to kill you? Etc - once you know the kind of horror your trying to make, id suggest looking at games with similar horror themes to yours and read what the comments say they like and dont like about it, or join groups that focus on horror and ask them (likely being closer to your target audience) - you might also want to consider if your game is meant to appeal to players who are scared easily or not, and if you want to focus on immersion for those players, you may want to think about the story and/or using input as part of the immersion (such as mic volume, sprinting/footsteps, etc - ive even seen one game use a webcam eye tracker and move monsters when it detects blinking, although these kind of inputs might appeal more to content creators than your average playerbase)

[primal creek]

Like Dibbie pointed out, it depends on what your game really is. Some games scare players by applying instant fear factors (e.g. jump scares), and some create a tension that makes you really uncomfortable.

I like how Lethal Company is completely different when u play solo - the world suddenly feels so empty when you don’t have a friend by your side. I think that horror games really benefit when they take something away from the player - e.g. Amnesia: The Dark Descend actively punishes you for looking at the monsters so you never know them “too well”.

[latent meadow]

Always a treat to read you input on things 🙂 @ Dibbie

[molten kernel]

Yeah something like end of the year right?

Is it ok if I just update it myself? 🤔

[storm patio]

isn't it bound to being on mono?

[molten kernel]

I couldn't explain why but I know that upgrading the .net sdk is easy.

Perhaps that locks you in to il2cpp or something, not sure as I haven't done it myself

[storm patio]

not sure about il2cpp, but mono itself as a runtime just doesn't support newer features (at least with the version unity uses)

the plans to get a new c# version involve replacing mono entirely iirc

[molten kernel]

I know of at least 3 projects that upgrade Unity's Roslyn compiler, so it's definitely possible, like I said I do not know the specifics

For example this one will get you to the latest version of C# https://github.com/kandreyc/unity-csharp-patch#v1.4.0

How can I make lerp framerate independent? Should I just multiply t by time.deltatime?

[storm patio]

lerp is a math function. whether or not it's framerate dependant is up to how you use it, and that doesn't just depend on a single multiplication

if you're actually using it to lerp, the t value would increase over time respecting deltatime

if you're using it as wronglerp for example, then it's more complicated

it dosent count up

it stays at 0

[ancient phoenix]

[storm patio]

@zealous plume do you have an actual question or issue you need help with

[zealous plume]

sorry for the confusion.
I’m having an issue in Unity where my character sinks into the ground as soon as I press Play, even before any player input is applied.

I’m using a CharacterController for a 2.5D / fighting-game style setup. Gravity and movement are handled through a script, but on start the character continuously sinks downward. This happens even after setting the animations to Humanoid and assigning them to a proper root avatar.

[stuck flower]

Look at the positioning of the collider relative to the model when you have an actual animation loaded

The animation is probably assuming the pivot is at the feet, not the center

[storm patio]

seems like you have both a charactercontroller and a capsulecollider on the player there? you shouldn't have the collider, the CC is already a collider in itself

[zealous plume]

thanks, Ill test it out and I'll return again if the issue persists

[warm tiger]

I am having an error with Unity Version Control

There has been an unexpected error "Could not find a part of the path '/mnt/disk/jet/org_100574244/rep_9015969/revisions/revisions.idx'.". For more information check the server log.

what are some must-need plugins or asset packs for a 3d game i will be using c# im new to unity

[loud lava]

hi, do we have any idea when might Unity 6.4 LTS released?

other than 2026

[near wigeon]

assets for prototyping

Kenney ones are pretty good

[deft rock]

stating you're using C# is redundant, Unity only uses C#

[near wigeon]

don't think 6.4 is going to be LTS , I believe its going to be 6.7

6.4 will be one of those "Supported" release

[deft rock]

6.4 won't be an LTS

[night kayak]

Guys do you know of a tutorial, open source project or any proper source that will help me implement an input system for a game using the new input system, cross platform enabled and allow of those transitions where WASD keys for example will move the player but when UI is active, it will be used to navigate?
i tried doing it on my own and it's like dirty af xD

[deft rock]

the viking(?) demo project from Unity may be of help

[near wigeon]

https://github.com/UnityTechnologies/InputSystem_Warriors

forgot if that has UI control but all you need to do is switch the Control Scheme

[deft rock]

Warriors, not viking!

[night kayak]

why dont these projects appear in hub learning section

[loud lava]

okay, then when will 6.4 and 6.7 get released?

if we have any info on those

[near wigeon]

hub always been lackluster, their Github has lots of cool projects barely talked about

[loud lava]

at least a rumor would be enough

[potent geyser]

There are no rumours, Unity doesn't give a date.

[night kayak]

i see, thank you will check it out

[potent geyser]

But if you need a rumor, I would say sometime in the next few months. 🤷‍♂️

[near wigeon]

I cant tell you because I dont work there, some time in late 2026 probably

why

[deft rock]

just go over the releases of 6.1 and 6.2 from last year, it'll be around those months for this year .. maybe, probably

[loud lava]

that's incredibly unfortunate, thanks

[near wigeon]

what are you looking for exactly?

[loud lava]

I'm not allowed to disclose that

NDA

[near wigeon]

lol what

[loud lava]

non-disclosure agreement = NDA

[near wigeon]

I know what NDA is but why would that prevent you from saying whats in the later versions u want so bad..

makes no sense.

[potent geyser]

What Unity 6.4 offers isn't protected by NDAs

[loud lava]

you won't know all info that offers by the way, publicly

there are updates, which the public is not known about

this is why I said I can't disclose what I'm looking for

[potent geyser]

Now we have to chain you to a chair until you talk 🤷‍♂️

[deft rock]

but you do know about..?

[loud lava]

yes, because I signed stuff

[near wigeon]

this is the "my uncle works at nintendo"

so how would we know more about 6.4 release before you, seems you got company inside info

[deft rock]

You know unannounced stuff, but not a potential release date 😄

[loud lava]

okay, so based on that, when might 6.4 get released?

[deft rock]

go and look, I'm not doing your homework for you ;p

thanks

[gray frigate]

These are doubleplus-secret updates

[agile jacinth]

wait is this 3d?

[potent geyser]

Yes

[stuck flower]

I dunno mate you're apparently the one with insider info under NDA what the hell would we know that you don't?

[loud lava]

I only asked about unity editor release dates.

[near wigeon]

this is the closest we have to a tangible answer

see, no dates. Just a year

[loud lava]

nice, thanks

can you give me a source for this?

[near wigeon]

Unite 2025

there is probably a thread too

[loud lava]

https://80.lv/articles/the-unity-engine-roadmap-revealed

found it

okay, thanks

[near wigeon]

the devs are active on the forums too
https://discussions.unity.com/
https://discussions.unity.com/t/the-unity-engine-roadmap-unite-2025/1696495

[loud lava]

yeah, but from this, we can at least approximately see the dates

[dusty lichen]

fwiw the 6.x lifecycle wont have too many shiny new features as it's mostly a stability release cycle. I'd imagine you are asking because of CoreCLR (it's probably the only gigantic feature to the core editor experience after 6.3 LTS).

if i had to pull a number out of thin air based on nothing but vibes you can expect 6.7 or 6.8 STABLE with CoreCLR (I think?) to be released like June 2027 with alpha / beta October 2026

[loud lava]

not because of CoreCLR

[dusty lichen]

personally i'm interested to see how they are gonna handle the unified Render Pipeline.

Unity have a LOT of work ahead of them to get this working without fragmenting the Renderers into yet another Pipeline. Render Graph was a major step forward even through it will break a lot of projects that relied on the compatability mode.

URP and HDRP being split was such a mistake

[flat breach]

hi, here these zombies using navmesh can't walk anymore and go to their destinations but there are no obstacles in front, what could be the reason this is happening?

[dusty lichen]

share what your navmesh looks like

[flat breach]

oh yea forgot to loook at this...

there's like a hole so that's the reason but it's weird though that it's happening, maybe I should make another navmesh surface and try to include this in

[dusty lichen]

What's the NavMeshSurface component looking like?

Baked using colliders? MeshRenderers?

[flat breach]

meshes

[dusty lichen]

Set to include children or all in scene?

[flat breach]

do I do this by using colliders?

[flat breach]

navlesh baked using colliders

[dusty lichen]

I'm thinking you either dont have that part of the floor included (hierarchy), your bake settings are wrong, or you have an invisible wall / trigger there that is carving into that area

[flat breach]

alright; thank you for helping me

[cloud flower]

is there a way to make these file names show fully while docked in folder?

[storm patio]

you can change the sizing of the icons with the slider at the bottom, up to making it a list, but i don't think there's an option specifically to make them all show the full filename

[cloud flower]

yea that works with minimal files but once you get enough they resize down to where some of th etext is blocked again

[stuck flower]

Then you'll need to change the slider more

[cloud flower]

ook thanks wasnt sure if there was a more permanent solution

[stuck flower]

Resizing the asset window often is just part of the workflow - sometimes you need to see a bunch of script files, sometimes you need to see thumbnails up close

[storm patio]

i imagine you should get full filenames up to the width of the window if you make it a list?

[cloud flower]

I have mem issues so its easier to see full names

how do I make into a list

[stuck flower]

Slide it all the way down

[deft rock]

slide it all the way to the left

[cloud flower]

oh yea taht works

that'll do

[deft rock]

I have it like that all the time

[cloud flower]

anyone doing spacey stuff?

[near wigeon]

probably

[cloud flower]

nice

[near wigeon]

I get spacey when I do stuff, does that count?

[cloud flower]

I suppose lol

Im down to recreate a popular space sim in my image

I wanted to ask though Im having an issue with my player controller it stutters when I move

any suggestions

[near wigeon]

not without seeing how everything is setup..

[cloud flower]

this guy

all movement works

but theres an ever so slight stutter

when turning

[near wigeon]

we dont have crystal ball, without seeing how you set everything up.. its all guesswork

[cloud flower]

theres no common culprits things to check lol

[near wigeon]

wouldnt it be easier to just show how everything is setup ?
usually desync between camera is common issue. If you dont have that set to follow thats probably guesswork

[cloud flower]

I dunno what you mean other then to provide script

[balmy kettle]

would you rather spend 20 minutes playing a game of 20 questions where random things are suggested or would you prefer to spend 30 seconds providing actual context so that correct solution can be immediately suggested?

[balmy kettle]

and are you sure the player is stuttering, and not perhaps your camera?

[cloud flower]

Im not allowed to say ummm lol but I dunno it might be camera

lemme

look

[stuck flower]

So, start taking some time to figure out what the problem is, then you can ask that question

[cloud flower]

i was sure it was the player itself I hadnt considered the camera

[balmy kettle]

"Im not allow to say ummm"
you're not allowed to post useless messages that add nothing to the conversation as the bot said when it blocked your message. you should consider actually reading information presented to you

[cloud flower]

back to it

it wasn't useless in that context to each their own I suppose

[balmy kettle]

what did it add to the conversation other than random unnecessary filler? we don't need every "hm" and "um", you don't need to spout every random thought, you can respond when you actually have something useful to respond with

[terse rose]

Anyone sure why the colliders aren't being shown by the Physics debugger?

I had been able to use it with success before in 2022 but I've moved up to the latest LTS in anew project but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

[cloud flower]

maybe stop attacking people that just joined this channel and there might be more people here just a THOUGHT

[terse rose]

Contacts still work.

[storm patio]

there are some expected social norms here, and they were explained in the automod message

don't take it personally

[deft rock]

more people? There's 27k online ;p

[balmy kettle]

they probably think that because there isn't a constant torrent of useless conversation that the channel is dead

[cloud flower]

27k lol

[storm patio]

tbh one of my main goals answering here is pointing to resources so people can learn how to figure stuff out themselves, so the less people here, the better i'm doing my job

[cloud flower]

anyway I wouldnt want to add anymore useless context here. I went over the camera script and its like 95% of camera scripts out there I dont know what could be causing it to stutter

[stuck flower]

There's like 50,000 people here. Honestly we could use a few less people here

[fleet canopy]

127k

[storm patio]

is your camera perhaps following the player on Update instead of LateUpdate

[fleet canopy]

If you’re experiencing jitters you could try using stuff like lerp

[storm patio]

mm, that's.. not a great recommendation to make sweepingly

[terse rose]

Turns out the collision geometry check was off since I reloaded or something, but even with it on no collision hulls exist, regardless of scene or game view.

Gizmos are on

[storm patio]

@cloud flower perhaps check in scene view to see if your player is stuttering there. if not, then it's probably the camera

[balmy kettle]

unless you plan to provide actual context, people can only guess. and we've been over that already

[near wigeon]

test the movement withou a camera follow, if it still has issue then you know it camera

[radiant pewter]

any idea why this button is anchored with its corner rather than the middle?

[fleet canopy]

you can change it in the properties

Click on where it shows left top

[radiant pewter]

its driven by layout

not letting me change it

child alignment is set to middle center tho

[fleet canopy]

can we see the layout

[radiant pewter]

wait I've got it

[storm patio]

maybe because of the horizontal layout group?

[radiant pewter]

I forgot to change layout width 😭

[cloud flower]

does unity have an AI integration yet? I havent seen a setting yet

[storm patio]

as in within the game, or within the editor?

[cloud flower]

The editor

[terse rose]

what would that even do

[storm patio]

yeah i think so, as of unity 6.2

it's not a replacement for knowing what you're doing though

[cloud flower]

review code I dunno lots

what is your problem, man

[cloud flower]

people bash on ai thats a you problem not me

[storm patio]

hm, i recall trying some 6.x out and getting slapped with some AI sign in window. i guess that's changed

[storm patio]

i gave a general tip. i'm not trying to argue

are you seriously trying to pull a "who asked"

[terse rose]

I was thinking this was just a unity 6.3 or whatever bug but my old 2022.3 backup also won't show collision meshes?
Any clue why I cant get the Physics debugger to show collision hulls anyone?

[deft rock]

I didn't touch 6.1 or 6.2, but haven't had that in 6.0 or 6.3

[terse rose]

I had it working a few weeks ago

[storm patio]

@terse rose might want to try asking in #⚛️┃physics, might get some more experienced eyes there

[terse rose]

Will do.

[cloud flower]

I wasn't trying to argue either for what its worth I just took that comment as the usual bash on AI knowledge etc. its 2026 its time to accept the facty its here and it WILL be widely integrated

itll mess stuff up 100% but it will be integrated none the less

and if used appropriately it can actually be taught to be an educator on wide ranges of subjects

[balmy palm]

It is already integrated tho. So what exactly do you mean by integrated in this context.

[storm patio]

ok, i do see that you're the intended audience then

well.. good luck with that, i'm not touching this with a 20 meter pole

[cloud flower]

see

u just proved my point

[balmy palm]

Yeah, i'm not touching ai either.

[deft rock]

Can we not? Everyone just drop it and move on..

[balmy palm]

Sounds good.

[cloud flower]

people get so butthurt over ai conversations omg

[balmy kettle]

this isn't a shareholder meeting, you can take the AI evangelism elsewhere

[cloud flower]

and ur not a mod lol

[storm patio]

you didn't read #📖┃code-of-conduct, did you

[balmy palm]

Well, so much for that.

[cloud flower]

therefore no rule broken

If you want to continue AI convo, spouting the same thing we all already know, please make a thread.

[storm patio]

i wrote in one off-hand remark about remembering to use your brain and you start arguing about me bashing AI?

Hi

[crimson comet]

is anyone else having problems on unity editors that ui buttons never work ive tried like 10 versions nothing seemed to help..

[deft rock]

no, UI buttons (editor and canvas) work fine

[crimson comet]

For me they down

[deft rock]

first be specific .. which buttons

[vivid cedar]

Most likely it's an issue with your scene

[cloud flower]

they tell on themselves wth is that supposed to mean

[crimson comet]

all buttons

[deft rock]

for the editor menu, or your game canvas UI

[crimson comet]

I dont know its been almost a month that im trying to fix this problem nothing helps...

[crimson comet]

like the scene itself the game

canvas

[deft rock]

right yeah, then you've just not got it setup correctly

☝️ follow ui tutorials

[crimson comet]

when i start new project and set it up it works but when i create a full on working game with everything except UI It doesnt work when i go to set it up

[deft rock]

If you swap input systems and don't setup the UI correctly for the one in use, then it will cause problems

[plain dagger]

But if you go to the event system it will have a warning and a btn to fix if thats the case

[vivid cedar]

yep just a scene issue

you didn't set it up right

[cloud flower]

At a certain point your game breaks... id go back a few steps and see what it is your doing that breaks it that's just me though

[crimson comet]

Maybe but ive done like everything possible..

[deft rock]

you havne't, otherwise it'd be working ;p

we're all just randomly guessing here, because you haven't shown anything just said "buttons dont work"

[cloud flower]

oh and I keep getting an error about editor in C please slect a different application.... not sure how to get warning to stop showing up cause when I dbl click code it opens to studio code

[vivid cedar]

Apparently not. Why not share some screenshots of the scene with us and show us how you set it up. Including your event system, input module, etc

[humble mulch]

have u tried creating a new project and trying out the button thats failing you

[deft rock]

don't use that tiny little line, click on it and read the actual console .. it often gives more information

[crimson comet]

No like every button doesnt work

[cloud flower]

no it use to until I moved it, its no longer there but it keeps wanting to point there. I had a drive issue and had to move it from C

[crimson comet]

Which place do you want to see?

[plain dagger]

Do you have an event system in a loaded scene?

[vivid cedar]

the scene where buttons aren't working

[crimson comet]

yes

[vivid cedar]

show the whole hiearchy, etc

[plain dagger]

inb4 image in front of everything blocking input

[deft rock]

select the eventsystem and show it's inspector in the screenshot

[vivid cedar]

show the inspector for the event system, the inspector for one of the buttons, the whole hierearchy, etc

Other issues it could be besides missing event system:

• Wrong or improperly configured input module
• Some objects blocking the objects you're trying to interact with
• Disabled raycast target/block raycast on the graphics or a CanvasGroup

is there a spot to change what program opens what for coding?

oh god is that unity 5

no its 2019.2.6f1

here is eventsystem

okj

[plain dagger]

#1391720450752516147 ask more here

[quick axle]

thanks

[plain dagger]

If its a fresh canvas with a fresh button it should work
How are you checking if it works or not?

[crimson comet]

i had a debug script made it didnt detect and it doesnt highlight even thought theres nothing blocking the button

[deft rock]

show the canvas component

[crimson comet]

alr

[vivid cedar]

Your buttom image's Normal Color alpha is set to 0

This means it will not be clickable IIRC

[deft rock]

no it doesn't

the colour has no input on the detection, raycast target on the image component does that

[vivid cedar]

Ah you know what you're right - what I was thinking of was the mesh settings and alpha of the original sprite image

the transparent parts of the original image won't be clickable - but if they're made transparent like this it should be fine

[deft rock]

2019 didn't have the input switch in the player settings..? So we can rule that out..

[vivid cedar]

If you run the game with the EventSystem object selected you should see a preview window for the event system showing up at the bottom of the inspector window. Try that and mouse over the button and see what it says, if anything

Not that I'm aware of, but I don't use UGUI

[astral sparrow]

sorry to interrupt your question, just looking for something

[plain dagger]

No idea how that is still fucking broken 😐

[sage basin]

graphic raycaster, something else entirely

[crimson comet]

I just checked that and my project still didnt help..

[vivid cedar]

Can you show the Canvas object?

[crimson comet]

screenshot?

[vivid cedar]

yes

[sage basin]

telepathy would be preferred

but we take what we can get

[vivid cedar]

Also really dumb question but you are running the game when you test it, right?

No offense implied

[crimson comet]

yes ofc

[crimson comet]

which canvas part inspector or which else

[vivid cedar]

The inspector, yes

[crimson comet]

ok

[vivid cedar]

ideally an uncropped screenshot with the object selected honestly

[crimson comet]

okj

[deft rock]

pretty much never share cropped screenshots when getting help

[deft rock]

there's no (visible) camera in the scene - never tried to use UI without a camera

[crimson comet]

wdym

i have a camera

its under camera

player i meant

[vivid cedar]

And so to be clear - the behavior you're seeing here is what? The button is not reacting to the mouse at all?

[crimson comet]

yep exactly that

[vivid cedar]

And what happened when you checked the event system preview window?>?

[sage basin]

at this point we need to see the preview window of the event system in play mode while the button is hovered

[stoic lake]

how can i make textures blend together/ transition something like this? (but not pixelated obviously)

preferably procedural if possible

[crimson comet]

ah yes okey wait letme do that

[vivid cedar]

what kind of objects are those? Are they like adjacent cubes? Terrains? Something else?

[crimson comet]

Dumb question but how do i do that? ive never used that in my life

[vivid cedar]

It's in vertx's link above

[crimson comet]

alr

[stoic lake]

two different planes

preferably it would be one mesh and it would transition in the shader

[sage basin]

The preview pane at the bottom of the inspector, if it's collapsed you can click or drag it to expand

[vivid cedar]

That's gonna be pretty tricky - yeah having one obejct with a custom shader would be the simplest I think

[stoic lake]

im not sure how to do it in any degree though thats just my temporary setup

[vivid cedar]

You could basically make a shader that takes three textures:

• Texture A
• Texture B
• A mask texture

Where the mask texture has grayscale pixels.

Then in the shader you use the mask texture to decide, based on the brightness of the pixel in the mask, how much contribution to the fragment color should come from texture a and how much from texture b

Basically:
pixelColor = Lerp(sampleA, sampleB, maskValue)

(but in shader graph)

[stoic lake]

i see

i could definitely make that work but its very challenging

i need many many possible textures

[vivid cedar]

if you've never touched shaders before it's pretty challenging, but it's actually a simplish shader

[stoic lake]

and the floor is generated procedurally (within a confined space)

[cloud flower]

having 2 identical scripts wrecks havoc yes?

[crimson comet]

i dont understand am i that dumb.. i just cant seem to find it

[vivid cedar]

If they have the same fully qualified name and are in the same assembly? It will be a compile error

[sage basin]

at the bottom of the Event System inspector, click/drag to expand it

[cloud flower]

yea I was moving some scripts around and it started throwing red errors up att me im like whoops and stopped til I figured out why it was doing it

is giea or whatever still a decent thing? it was a procedural world generator really top notch

[crimson comet]

check this screenshot of event system inspector i cant seem to find it could that be because its an older version of unity?

[cloud flower]

gaia

[sage basin]

It's not there in play mode?

Also, that's not the Event System in that screenshot

[deft rock]

this is the event system - the bar isn't there , but should appear in play mode..?

[crimson comet]

ok i hovered over the button nothing changed

[deft rock]

code channel if its a code question... #📲┃ui-ux if it's setup related

[vivid cedar]

so like.. I'm pretty sure we ruled out the transparency being an issue but... Can you try:

• Disabling the Text object on the button, temporarily
• Making the button alpha visible, just for testing

[crimson comet]

okay ill do that

[vivid cedar]

but yeah if we're not even seeing the Text show up here...

something is odd

[deft rock]

I did used to get TMP blocking raycasts in the past, there was a period where I would always disable raycasting on text

does the game view require focus for the event viewer to show stuff?

[vivid cedar]

yeah but you'd expect to see the text object in the preview window then

so I'm stumped tbh

[crimson comet]

yep i did nothing changed

i dont understand what is the problem ive been dealing with this for a month now and tried like 10 diffrent versions of unity

[plain dagger]

What about a new scene with a new button with no extra changes

[crimson comet]

alright even no tmp?

[lapis grove]

Hi

[plain dagger]

hmm you can try both but the point is to exclude all other factors

[vivid cedar]

there don't happen to be any errors or warnings in your console, do there?

[crimson comet]

none errors

[sage basin]

No random images please

[crimson comet]

in new project i dont see canvas.... or event system.

[frosty pilot]

Why you use 2019 version?

[sage basin]

going further and further back in time

[crimson comet]

Cause for me its the best tbh

[vivid cedar]

If you check the package manager under "In Project" do you see the uGUI package?

[crimson comet]

i love the white backround and older buttons and only one input system

[vivid cedar]

(your ui will look somewhat different)

[crimson comet]

letme check

[sage basin]

Both of those things are options lol

[frosty pilot]

Check build in packages also

[stuck flower]

You can enable light mode and switch back to the old input manager

[crimson comet]

here

[vivid cedar]

Yes do this too. Make sure "UI" is there and is enabled

[balmy kettle]

why not at least update to the most recent version of 2019 so you have the benefit of all of the bug fixes?
also be aware that you will need to manually patch any builds you make to fix the recently discovered security vulnerability

[frosty pilot]

btw you has errors

[crimson comet]

oh damn well if i get this UI Problem i might go back to unity 6

[crimson comet]

Oh wait

yea

ohh thats the editor errors which i fixed in my other project

but since this is a new one

[sage basin]

That it says the position is -1, -1 is concerning, if the button was hovered surely it would be some screen position?

[mint swan]

TL;DR - new developer struggle with this type of art + tilemap/rule tile

Hi all im a new unity 2d developer, still learning ! i have a question and a help, i tried to find a tutorial or some topic specific for this, but maybe i missed something important

it might be long and it might be not the right place for it, but im really lost 🥲

im trying to build basic level of this type of pixel art like the photo,
the project idea is rouge lite,

my problem is,
i learned tilemap and rule tile,
i understand i need about 3 tilemaps :
1-floor
2-wall
3-decorations

maybe some more, i will figure it out later,

so how should i handle the level here ?
i want to draw a level/ map/ arena
but i struggle to make the rule tiles,

how many rule tiles i need, which one to make, one for floor , one for wall,
i struggle to understand the depth here,

there is the floor,
than there is the wall "Above" the player ( player drawn over it)
than there is the wall "below" the player (mostly the wall is not seen because of the prespective of the game ofcourse)

maybe i should not make ruletiles here? and mannually make room prefabs/ scenes?
if manually is the right way, how can it be made in normal time and not take ages ?
third option, it is used for procedural generation

if you delete a scrip it cant be undone with ctrl Z?

[sage basin]

No

[lapis grove]

S-Sowwy.. 🥺

[sage basin]

Recover it from the recycle bin

[lapis grove]

I agree

[balmy kettle]

unless you shift-delete there's literally a dialog box that tells you that you cannot undo an asset deletion

[sage basin]

or better: use source control

[frosty pilot]

You can do this in version control system

[cloud flower]

there was no box that said that

[lapis grove]

If you click delete there's a dialog gng

It says a confirmation

I know cuz I use unity BTW

[lapis grove]

Did I mention that it's in unity?

[sage basin]

https://discussions.unity.com/t/why-isnt-my-eventsystem-pointer-position-updating/239685
Surely they would have mentioned that their cursor was locked?

[cloud flower]

welp I messed up I deleted the whole folder 🙁

it did that time

[lapis grove]

Is there a channel for help glitches/bugs?

[cloud flower]

when I selected the folder

[sage basin]

#🔎┃find-a-channel

[cloud flower]

just as well I probably start again from scratch its the reptition thatll help I reckon

[lapis grove]

Unc I can't find it 🥹 do I js say my issue here

is there a list of them to do in order? is the essentials the first one?

oh nvm theres the order of the badges

[outer lynx]

oh txk

[cloud flower]

Is the essentials learning path lighting etc? I'm trying to gauge where I should start with tutorial I've messed with unity several different versions in one way or another for years

but never done the tutorial before and figure im bored wanna do it now

its got alot of bloat like installing etc

I dunno seems easy enough to install it

[outer lynx]

Guys I have a little problem with unity I'm on catcyOs and when I try to install android build support the download finishes fine but the installation fails how can I solve it?

[cloud flower]

oh it has an option to do it in the editor yea see I dont want that I want to just read stuff and move on not actually do it I just wanna mess with unity do my thing and go from there

[wispy field]

how do i fix choppy lighting

ive tried anything i can think of

[cloud flower]

is baked lighting still a thing? or has unity gone beyond that

[wispy field]

baked

it has an emission map

i dont know how to fix it

[cloud flower]

try changing the resolution on ur maps maybe? im trying to remember what I remember about lighting its been 5 years since I last touched unity and alots changed. chats been fairly quiet

[wispy field]

on my light map?

[cloud flower]

yeah

[wispy field]

whats a good setting

[cloud flower]

like 1024 2048 pretty typical resolutions if I recall it just depends on what ur doing

[plain dagger]

That wont fix an emission map that does not match the other textures

yes power of 2 sizes are best but that is not some magical fix

[mint swan]

Please if anyone can help I appreciate it much ! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[wispy field]

im also trying to keep things optimized for standalone vr

here is another image

[cloud flower]

its all I've got off top off my head like I said I'm just now getting back into it I havent even touched lighting yet

well thats a lie I messed with my directional lightting a lil bit but thats different lol

[wispy field]

and some more

[plain dagger]

sorry is the issue fixed or no?

[wispy field]

nope

not

[plain dagger]

Is this realtime or baked lighting?

[wispy field]

baked

[plain dagger]

use the lightmap debug mode and show the results
I presume the lightmap resolution is too low or the texel size is too small for this mesh/meshes

[wispy field]

how do i turn on debug mode

oh wait

[cloud flower]

I did say check the lightmap res

[wispy field]

like this

[plain dagger]

The resolution doesnt look too bad but could be better. Whats the lightmap resolution set to?

[wispy field]

40

[plain dagger]

sorry, max texture size

[wispy field]

1024

is that good?

[plain dagger]

Try 4k and see if its better. I presume these are large meshes meaning 1024 is just not enough.

You would need to split the mesh up into smaller pieces, up the max tex resolution, use light probes or a mixture of all 3

[wispy field]

4k crashed unity

[plain dagger]

Did you use cpu or gpu baking?

good specs or bad?

[cloud flower]

is that how we say get a better pc here lol?

[glossy thunder]

If my brother and I are collaborating to make the same game. How does that work with the unity asset store? Like I have trees purchased. Do we just both sign in to the same account? I'm not handing the assets to anyone for free it's still just on one project? how does that work? thanks!

[tribal jacinth]

do games force vsync for menus like the main menu or cut-scenes?

and then return to whatever the player had applied in their settings when its back to gameplay

[plain dagger]

no its checking if thats why it crashed 😆

[cloud flower]

It depends on the assets license policy some are fair game some are single use license aka must purchase per user its in their EULA and FAQ

like gaia I was just looking at you have to buy a license for each user and the asset is $200

use to be cheaper 🙁

[outer lynx]

pls.can someone help me

[cloud flower]

shoulda of bought it years ago

[frosty pilot]

Its bad idea

[tribal jacinth]

why?

[mint swan]

Anyone please 🙏🏻

[outer lynx]

can someone PLS help me with my issue? i have been try for days installing this

[cloud flower]

here ill help lol have you tried installing it on your main drive?

[frosty pilot]

Would it be nice for your eye if the frequency of the monitor was constantly changing periodically?

[tribal jacinth]

but it would forcefully remove screen tearing in cut-scenes

and then it would go back after the cutscene to whatever it was before

[tribal jacinth]

making them look crisp and nice

because cut-scenes aren't playable so the input lag caused by vsync shouldn't really matter

also it would put less stress on the gpu and whole pc because cutscenes don't need 600 fps do they

[reef dagger]

How is this fixed? If this isn't the right channel, please direct me there.

[cloud flower]

uhhh it tells you

[frosty pilot]

Install blender idk

[cloud flower]

associate files with blender

rather .blender

[outer lynx]

what OS are you using?

[reef dagger]

How do I make unity see blender

[reef dagger]

Windows 11

Blender is installed, clicking on a file opens it just fine in blender

but icons are not generated and the models don't appear in unity

[outer lynx]

do you ha e blender installed?

[reef dagger]

Yes

[cloud flower]

preferences external tools possible? I had to do something there earlier with source code

nah thats just for script editor

[frosty pilot]

Btw why you has .blend file in unity project?

[cloud flower]

its probably because you have a .blend file instead of FBX cant you just re export from blender as fbx?

[reef dagger]

They work

Well, worked

[cloud flower]

fbx is supported by unity

.blend I dont think is

[reef dagger]

It is

.blend files always worked fine for, waait

[potent geyser]

You can use blend files as long as you have blender installed.

You get the benefit of being able to save from Blender and have Unity update right away.

[cloud flower]

so its not? im confused

[potent geyser]

It is

[near wigeon]

.blend files always been supported

https://docs.unity3d.com/540/Documentation/Manual/HOWTO-ImportObjectBlender.html

[reef dagger]

So, the files are from a project that was in unity 2021.3.29f1, this is unity 2022.3.62f3

Like the files have no open with, I can't figure out how to set it

[fierce shuttle]

where can i talk about shaders?

i dont see a shader channel unless im blind

[frosty pilot]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/HOWTO-ImportObjectsFrom3DApps.html

[cloud flower]

is there a shortcut to create folders in unity? how about a shortcut cheatsheet?

[plain dagger]

#1390346776804069396 !

[cloud flower]

ctrl shift N

nvm

one thing I dislike about unity is how it doesn't tell me which icon is selected here

there isnt a hidden setting somewhere?

[frosty pilot]

What selected

[cloud flower]

like highlights the selection

not just the tiny mouse cursor

I dont see anything under preferences remotely like it sadly

[gusty sky]

Yo

[cloud flower]

YO

[plain dagger]

what icon? blame windows if the menu ui is acting weird

[cloud flower]

its not hightlighting my selection

its unity

im told

its just the cursor icon that is all

[plain dagger]

looks like the windows context menu to me

[stuck flower]

by who

that's the windows context menu

[plain dagger]

lets guess google ai

[stuck flower]

if there's graphical problems with it, then it's your OS

[gray frigate]

it looks to me like the highlight is stuck on Paste Special

which is odd, because that option isn't even interactable

[cloud flower]

no thats the unity overview

it works fine on my desktop

just not with unity

only when i click in unity does it not highlight selections

[lapis grove]

unc ur so mean 🥺

[near adder]

is there smth like union or negate in unity ProBuilder? Am kinda new I only have 1 or 2 weeks of experience I switched from roblox studio and that's what it is called in it so if I got the names of the features wrong (if they are in ProBuilder) I have a reason

[lapis grove]

I have an issue where certain lower end android devices display a black screen on my game

Especially devices that have Mali and Helio gpus

[lapis grove]

It's called boolean

You can enable it in preferences

[near adder]

oh alr thx

[lapis grove]

Yup you'll find it somewhere in the probuilder tab I think

Haven't used it in a while

[wispy field]

GPU and I think ryx 2080

Or smth

Its a laptop

[near adder]

couldn't find it.

[plain dagger]

you can try again or use cpu light baking instead. a laptop rtx 2080 may not have much vram but id presume 4gb min

[tribal jacinth]

how do games achieve a smooth transition from a black screen straight into another scene without screen tearing?

i played multiple games where there was a black screen pause and then it suddenly disappeared and the new scene was shown

but i couldn't notice any screen tearing, but in unity when i disable a black overlay image i can see the tear

i know its to do with vsync

but i dont get how they do it without vsync enabled

[lapis grove]

I did that but it doesent seem to work

[clever hearth]

Guess who just spent two days trying to debug issues with a shader, only to discover transparent surface type and HDRP are not friends lol. Just keeping it opaque solved it all. 🫠

[plain dagger]

Yea transparent rendering is different and often always forward rendered

one day we will have some cool solution with depth writing for it

[clever hearth]

So for now it's just best to stay away from it?

Weird thing is that it was working like half the time, but super random so that made me doubt everthing everytime lol

[plain dagger]

Depends what you are doing i guess.
transparent objects usually dont write depth but test it. Transparent objects are also sorted amongst eachother via center depth

Sometimes its worth forcing dept writes still but that means no transparent objects can draw behind

[clever hearth]

Nothing too fancy tbh. Just a grid that I wanted to be able to use the alpha in the color of it.

[slow dirge]

You could make them write to a separate depth texture if you wanted to if you need it for some sort of effect.
Would need an extra pass though.

[clever hearth]

But super randomly in the editor and build it would just be a solid plane instead of the grid.

[reef dagger]

So, I'm still unable to figure out how to tell unity to open .blend files with blender. Blender is installed, it should be noted the original files ware made made in unity 2021.3.29f1, and this project is in unity 2022.3.62f3.
Models don't appear at all, but they are opanable with blender if double clicked.

[stoic lake]

export it in blender to fbx or another format

then import that

[reef dagger]

That dosen't resolve the issiue

[slow dirge]

Unity likely looks for blender executable on the PATH env variables, but it's not there.

[plain dagger]

This is why its a bad idea to rely on unity reading a .blend file.
It secretly exports it as fbx anyway so just do that

[tropic lake]

alguien aqui habla español?

[plain dagger]

english only #📖┃code-of-conduct

[slow dirge]

Do you have the blender installed in a default location? Or some custom one?

[tropic lake]

ok espero haber entendido gracias

[reef dagger]

default

So, newly imported things work fine

It's just what was in the old project that i moved to the new one that's broken

[slow dirge]

Ah, is the issue only with blend files created in an older blender version or something?

[reef dagger]

This is from the back up of the project I had that was in 2021... version of unity, now I made a project in unity 2022.3.62f3. and unity can't open them

[slow dirge]

Do you have the same blender version though??

[reef dagger]

Unlikely

[slow dirge]

Well, then that's the likely culprit. It could be that the default blend - fbx conversion path is different in the new blender version.
New blend files are imported correctly, right?

[reef dagger]

yah

[slow dirge]

This is why you shouldn't import blend files, but export them as fbx in blender. Unity doesn't need to rely on blender then.

[reef dagger]

Yeah, I will just reimport all the assets as fbxes

[cloud flower]

so this doesn't highlight the left is inside unity the right is my desktop it highlights just fine this is super annoying

it highlights when I do a screengrab but thats it

[reef dagger]

What does this symbol mean?

on the left

and this one

[inland river]

if you click on it, you see what it is, and you may then associate the icon with that. First icon means '3D model asset' like an fbx, obj or blend file, second one is a 'mesh', which is also a model asset but without a container in unity's internal format. Meshes may be part of models.

[still quiver]

can someone tell me why my 8 directional movement system aint working https://paste.mod.gg/wxqblzvpykwi/0

[near wigeon]

whats nt working ? did you check console logs

[storm patio]

why isn't this a blend tree

also you aren't resetting any of the booleans here when you change direction

that's probably the cause if i had to guess without more info

but yeah you could just use a blend tree here

[still quiver]

so basically there are 2 problems 1. once i go in a direction it has a delay before switching from idle to moveing and 2. if i move in another direction it doesnt change animation unless i stop -> the animation changes to idle -> and then i move in another direction

[cloud flower]

i keep getting this error why?

[storm patio]

the warning message says pretty clearly

[still quiver]

i tried using a blend tree but it was too hard and im not familiar with it so i tried to learn it but i couldnt

[near wigeon]

oh this is animation ? hmm look into the blend tree like suggested

[still quiver]

kay ill try again thx

[cloud flower]

that doesnt explain to me why its acting that way

[fleet canopy]

It does

[near wigeon]

you set it kinematic but doesn't support angular velocity

[fleet canopy]

It tells you it’s not supported

[cloud flower]

it doesnt reference whats trying to use angular velocity or anything so I dunno how to get rid of it

[storm patio]

it's not too complicated, it basically just condenses the logic to select the specific animation clip

[storm patio]

presumably you

[fleet canopy]

double click on the warning

from the log console

[storm patio]

does the warning not have a stacktrace

view the warning from the console, this is just a secondary preview, it only shows the message

the console will have more info

[near wigeon]

click it once in console it should highlight the gameobject in hierarchy too

[cloud flower]

I see it its calling on a shipmovement script so something isnt working properly there. Im not sure what or why the warning though ship movement etc works as intended but this error keeps popping up

[fleet canopy]

it’s a warning so you can ignore it, but it’s likely that line is not doing anything

[cloud flower]

unless I need to remove this

[fleet canopy]

you could but your problem is in the code and not the variable setting

[storm patio]

the warning should have a stacktrace which would tell you which line it's coming from exactly

[cloud flower]

Assets/Script/Player Scripts/ShipMovement.cs:49)
cs is line 49 I take it?

[fleet canopy]

check there

[storm patio]

it's from the file ShipMovement.cs, line 49

[cloud flower]

ok

[storm patio]

not sure what you mean by "cs is line 49"

[cloud flower]

it was a question

[storm patio]

then, "no" i guess

[slow dirge]

What do you mean by "cs" in that sentence?

It's like asking "png is line 49?"

[thorny herald]

Is there a channel for showing off work or asking for feeback?

[storm patio]

#1180170818983051344 or #🏆┃daily-win

[cloud flower]

it was in the ss apart of error nvm I figured it out

[thorny herald]

Thank you, also my work has gore and other bodyly themes, is it not appropite to share it here?

[storm patio]

if you're asking about the other aspects unrelated to the specific theme, then you could ask with the gore censored, but if you're asking about the art or something, yeah i don't think that would work here

[thorny herald]

thanks

the player model is a ||corpse|| 😭

[storm patio]

you play as that straight-up, not even like a zombie?

[slow dirge]

cs is the file extension/format, standing for C sharp probably. The colon and the number after a file name(filename includes it's extension) point to a line of code in that file. So, the error is on that line, not "cs".

[thorny herald]

its an intense game where you escape hell, its complicated

it’s weird but unity idk how my game in unity freezes and I cannot do anything to stop the game from running except shutting down my computer

My game is literally a box and platforms that’s it even no sprites

HELP SOS

[balmy kettle]

just FYI, a freeze is not a crash. it sounds like you have an infinite loop in your code

[nova saddle]

I think it’s in my coroutine

So infinite loops and Instantiations etc freezes the game?

[balmy kettle]

nothing else can happen until your loop finishes, or you yield (if in a coroutine). so yes, the frame can never end and the application appears to be frozen

[nova saddle]

I really appreciate your help and I’ll try to avoid making mistakes like this

Thx a lot

what determines local global?

im not seeing it

[storm patio]

that's always in local

you might be thinking of the local vs global tool handles in the scene view?

[cloud flower]

yes and stuff keeps breaking when I move my PlayerShip

[storm patio]

that's not much info to go off of

could you be more descriptive

what's the context here, how exactly does it break

Cuz i need help with whatever this is

[storm patio]

sounds like you saved a file as Untitled-1 instead of naming it and giving it a proper extension

[cloud flower]

when it comes to unities particle system if im attaching a particle system to main camera to mimic space dust and the dust seems like its on the screen which setting could I use to tweak that?

everything I change seems to make it worse started off good now not so much

its not all the particles either just some of them

I dunno maybe its the camera movement making it feel akward

oh wow now they are hella fast

its in relation to my speed I kind of like it

trying to import a glb unsuccessfully

google says I have to install something first but it doesnt come up

[sly lake]

It's com.unity.cloud.gltfast

[cloud flower]

thanks

progress!

and I can actually dock well sort of lol

I keep forgetting to come out of game mode when applying changes ill apply multiple then realize im not in scene view and it deletes everything I did. Is there a way to have it save changes in any view?

[jagged sage]

Do i seriously have to name it?

[copper gust]

you gotta read the and part of Chris’s response

[sly lake]

What is Untitled-1?

[storm patio]

if i give you a lego set without the instructions or telling you what it's supposed to be, would you be able to build it

or if i just give you a list of random stuff, how would you know if that's a shopping list, a wishlist, or maybe stuff i've already bought?

[jagged sage]

A new project

[sly lake]

VS Code can't run Unity projects. Are you trying to debug it?

[jagged sage]

Wot

[sly lake]

It's perfectly alright for Unity projects to be named Untitled-1

[jagged sage]

Doesnt it use C#

[sly lake]

It uses Unity's runtime

It's not a dotnet project like most C# applications, so you don't run it like that

[jagged sage]

Oh

So like

What do i use to learn programming C# on

[sly lake]

Launch it through Unity. Debug in VS Code.

[jagged sage]

Im only trying to learn the code before i use it for games

Or

Can i just normally use it on unity

[sly lake]

What kind of project is this? 😅

[jagged sage]

Im tryna learn C#

[sly lake]

It's a dotnet project?

[jagged sage]

Should be

I installed the C# dev kit

And got the dotnet 10

Or whatever it was called

[sly lake]

Might want to ask in the C# server instead of the Unity server then.

This should work but I don't remember how to set it up.
