i think it kinda sucks though, because geforce now is not like Stadia, its litterally just hosting a rig for you to use and play on on the cloud, you still need to own the games you want to play
yet publishers can still request their games be pulled from the library

If you're still struggling with this, here's how I did it: I made a canvas that has Object.DontDestroyOnLoad, then you can make a simple script that covers the screen somehow. In mine I made an image scale up until it was larger than the size of the reference canvas, but you could also just fade it in, or whatever else is fun. When it's at it's apex, call SceneManager.LoadScene("sceneToLoad"); then just scale it down or fade it out after your loading is done ❤️
plain dagger
Overriding the canvas sort order to be super high + DontDestroyOnLoad is a good way
then just animate it out and destroy when done with it

Because having something (or someone even) do things for you isn't not learning. It's dictating.
But again, if you think it'll be useful, use it. It's not that hard to try and make your own informed decision.
inland river
it doesn't force you to stick with a problem until your solve it and discover/answer all the implied questions, with AI you always have the option to "cheat" and that murders learning.
this is compounded by actual learning being somewhat uncomfortable, so ai-in-the-room will have a negative impact, even if it just causes you to spend energy on self control. Unfortunately, you can't avoid AI anymore, you used to be able to google stuff and that still required reading, research and some thinking, now you always get the answer you were looking for without any amount of thinking on your own.

If you have good self control and are genuinely interested in learning it can be invaluable. If you are willing and interested to ask it "why do we do this? Why do we do that? What's the reasoning here? What does this mean?" and actually read its answers and grow your understanding, it's great.
But most people just try to get it to do the thing for them and skip using their brain at all - and that is less than useless.

For Unity, VS > VSCode imo
VSCode can be a pain to get working with Unity, can lose connection randomly (used to, not sure if this is still accurate).

So "exterior" dungeons?

yaa

Yeah that's probably where it shines the most
For closed dungeons I made a portal-based occlusion system
Since I generate the whole layout i also know where to place portals

yeahh im using Dungen (same plugin lethal uses) with some extra home sauce on top which does have some culling solutions but nothing for this kinda exterior scenario
with my heavy tree proc gen theres probably good gains to be had there too

You can't delete it while the project is open.
Close Unity -> delete -> Open the project -> the folder and its content will be back (but maybe take up less space)
It's cache and is rebuilt if it's not there... deleting it can often fix a problem
(and should never be pushed to version control)

Why does deprecating scripts make me feel like a real developer?
P.S. I'm happy to ditch JSL, I had to do this to get it to work for some reason. Guess it just didn't like C#'s byte math.
string hex = $"0x{red}{green}{blue}";
int hexInt = System.Convert.ToInt32(hex, 16);
I use it as Fov for enemies all the time, works very well
storm patio
though, just getting the angle between 2 vectors and checking if it's within a certain constraint isn't bad either

You do need an overlap of sorts to get the other objects you want to check

hey I had a quick question, I wanted to organize my unity hierarchy but not sure if it's going to break everything or not, can I rename the "Assets" folder ?
potent geyser
No
Also, that is not the hierarchy. The hierarchy refers to the list of objects in your currently opened scene (hence the panel called hierarchy).
The assets folder is your project view, and it being named Assets is required
glacial arrow
Also, that is not the hierarchy. The hierarchy refers to the list of objects in ...
I was just thinking of a file hierarchy globally

okay, lucky I didn't try then, thanks

inside the assets folder you can rearrange things as much as you want
just be aware of things like special folder names and assembly definition files
glacial arrow

gray frigate
I was just thinking of a file hierarchy globally

Unity identifies assets by the ID stored in the corresponding .meta file

Anyone know how I can do cone detection in unity (3d space)
I think, calculate the angle between the sensor forward and the otherObjectDir (Vector3.Angle).
And check if angle is less than half of the maxAngle.
I think it should do work
And I think Dot also works but this angle approach might be easier to get.
lost garnet
I would not do complete cone but I'd do a Dot product.
Yeah, I think that works too.
Thanks tho
gray frigate
I think, calculate the angle between the sensor forward and the otherObjectDir (...
Yep, that's the way to go!
using Vector3.Dot, you'd need to follow it up with a Mathf.Acos to get the angle back out
(and then convert that from radians to degrees)
storm patio
well you don't really need an angle at all with the dot product
gray frigate
you do if you're trying to express the view cone as an angle 😉
the dot product also doesn't vary linearly as you rotate away from the target
storm patio
yeah.. you don't have to do that, you wouldn't if you used a dot product
gray frigate
which may or may not be desirable
gray frigate
yeah.. you don't have to do that, you *wouldn't* if you used a dot product
presumably you want to say an enemy has a 90 degree view cone, rather than a uhhhh
dot product threshold of 0.7?
violet thunder
Dot product values are very unintuitive
lost garnet
well you don't really need an angle at all with the dot product
Yep, ik but OP kinda seemed new so I gave an easier solution
gray frigate
yeehaw
storm patio
the dot product also doesn't vary linearly as you rotate away from the target
oh good point. i (incorrectly) assumed it did
gray frigate
it's the cosine of the angle between the vectors (times their magnitudes, but we'll assume they're normalized)
storm patio
if it did it would be pretty much equivalent in terms of logic to checking angle, that's what i was basing my argument off of
gray frigate
I've thought that in the past 😉
storm patio
angle checks would definitely be easier then yeah

It’s possible that they got deleted (and that new files were created)
This will give the assets new IDs and throw out your import settings
storm patio
if you moved them in unity the meta files should be moved along with them, but if you moved them in file explorer, well... good luck, hope you have a vcs
glacial arrow
I moved them in unity so that's that
gray frigate
Ah, then there's no concern.
It's possible for exact asset paths to matter
e.g. editor code can rely on an exact path
the path of anything in a Resources folder matters, since those assets can be loaded by path
and as was already mentioned, stuff like "Editor" folders and assembly definitions are important for scripts

woeful spear
Could anyone help me with these errors. I've spent 2 hours on troubleshooting it. I've narrowed it down. It seems related to Terrain. Terrain layer specifically. It happens on some layers and not on some. The current layer is problematic and gives these errors. I don't know what's wrong. It seems like this layer only stops Shaders from loading.
"shader is not supported on this GPU" could also be an issue. But I don't get why this simple project won't run on RTX 3050.
It's just a Terrain.

bounced light shadow, not direct one
Bounced lighting cannot cast shadows using the built-in GI system.
I'm sure you could create that effect, but it'd be expensive and a very rough approximation
the realtime GI system can allow objects to block light sources, preventing them from bouncing light elsewhere
but i'm not aware of any way to block bounced light
woeful spear
Hi. You won't believe what fixed it. Hit and trial. I created a new scene. Copied the problematic Terrain there, then copied back it again from there and pasted in my main scene again and it fixed the issue lmao
Technically, both Terrains are exactly same. Don't know why the copy works, not the original.
I guess it has some caching issue.
I'm really not interested in web builds. I am just in last step of Creative Core pathway. They say if you submit your web project, you'll get the badge lol
On the other hand, it's remarkable to see graphics rich 3D games in a browser.

Not really. People try all the time to dofree collab works and it rarely, if ever, works out to completion.
Also, it's not a thing here specifically no. We don't allow for job/collab posts.

update the editor
How do I do this? Sorry I'm sorta new to this program.

download the latest version of that editor in the unity hub
earnest thistle
Some Packages in the Package Manager can be updated and it seems to fix it, but others can't and wont uninstall.
balmy kettle
this was a known issue that was recently patched. update the editor.
earnest thistle
this was a known issue that was recently patched. update the editor.
Oh I see what the editor is. I thought I was on the latest one, let me try again, might take a minute.
It was outdated, weird I thought I updated it a little while ago.
few days ago*
balmy kettle
what is the actual version you are using
balmy kettle
6000.3.2f1
that patch came out in december. there have been 6 other patches (which happen every 2ish weeks) since then
slow dirge
Or maybe you're not using the new editor install
earnest thistle
I work on art, so sometimes my days blend.
slow dirge
Just to make it clear unity doesn't "update". You get a new editor version installed and need to make sure you're opening the project with the newer version.
earnest thistle
Oh, gotcha
Yeah it says my project was using 3.2f1
I'm (Very slowly sadly) getting .3.8f1 atm.

No errors with 8f1, thanks guys!

there's generally not a hierarchy of "easier" languages. the first language you learn is always the hardest, and they all have their differences
personally lua has been one of the harder languages for me to learn, because of what i already know and what i expect lmao
it's an entire skill on its own, so it's not going to be easy, but it's not egregiously hard either

Hi, Am I the only one having issue with the Unity Asset Store website ? It is painfully slow on my side and I can't add free asset to my account. When I click the "Add Asset" button it's spinning indefinitely. It took me 10 attempt and about an 1h (disconnecting, reconnecting, closing browser...) to be able to add a single asset to my library....
My internet connection is not the issue, ran a speedtest and other website work perfecly well.
