[full grove]

Hi

[near wigeon]

https://nohello.net

[remote needle]

is there an actual reason for this? (new to the discord)

[near wigeon]

We will not be adding job-seeking channels. Use Unity Discussions. There are plenty of other avenues to get work through other discord servers, and Unity is not willing to expend resources here to enable it. Our moderators are community-focused and do not want that workload. If you're looking for work online, be vigilant, there's many ways to be taken advantage of, or scammed. Join your union ✊, and be safe together.

[storm patio]

in general most community servers don't allow job posts since it's hard to moderate scams from either party, and because often it turns into a write-only thing. that extends to unpaid collabs here as well
additionally there's already a dedicated space for such posts, as linked above. this server is primarily a help server, so it'd be inappropriate here

ah ok ty

[quick aurora]

Hello everyone, could anyone be able to tell me the problem in this?

[quick aurora]

If I’m allowed to send photos

[near wigeon]

if its unity related sure

[quick aurora]

Does anyone know what could be the problem

[near wigeon]

screenshots not actual photos from a phone or something..

[storm patio]

kinda hard to tell what the supposed issue is there

[quick aurora]

Some of the phys bones are broken and I’ve tried figuring out what the issue is but I can’t find it

[near wigeon]

in the 3D program, like blender is the rig setup correctly?

[quick aurora]

It’s never happened before

Pretty sure but I’ll check

[quick aurora]

The names are all correct and look normal that’s what I don’t understand

[gray frigate]

Unity decided that your arms are your legs

[quick aurora]

Ahhh

[gray frigate]

note that the "not in t-pose" warning just means that the pose is not exactly the t-pose unity wants

You can enforce a t-pose here

But first, you'll want to fix the bone mapping

you'll need to re-assign these bones

The toes are optional

It also found your spine bone for some reason

I guess that its heuristics decided that the "spine" bone must be the humanoid hips, since the "legs" (your secondary arms) are attached to it

so, you'll want to remap all of your bones (except the arms, which are fine)

[quick aurora]

Tyyy

[gray frigate]

I'm guessing this is for VRChat – note that it requires a Chest bone

but I see you have one, so that'll be fine

Upper Chest is optional

[quick aurora]

Hey this new vrc avatar descriptor thing is very confusing and eye straining n im so confused how to set this up anymore

☹️

[copper gust]

look two messages up

[near wigeon]

#💻┃unity-talk message

[haughty stirrup]

This is unity talk

It’s in unity.

[worldly cave]

Yeah, and for help with Vrchat centric stuff you should use their server

because 99% of the people here have no clue how the Vrchat sdk functions, so we cant actually help

[near wigeon]

vrc avatar descriptor is not a unity thing..

[haughty stirrup]

So why is it in unity

I’m confused

[near wigeon]

because the devs of vrchat offer the sdk through unity but its third party..

[copper gust]

it's vr chat specific

we don't know how to help you here

[worldly cave]

Its in Unity, but its third party, so we cant help

[haughty stirrup]

Ah okay

Thank u anyway

is there any way to buy an actual month to month pro license?

[dusky forum]

https://unity.com/products

[fleet canopy]

how generous of them to let me choose not to use the unity pro free trial...
is this because there's still restrictions if you making too much money and haven't paid for pro yet?

[dusky forum]

Are you unable to select it?

Other than that, unless you've made $200k you're likely eligable to use the personal license:

Unity Personal
Individuals, hobbyists, and small businesses using Unity to provide services to others are eligible to use Unity Personal if their respective clients, in the aggregate, have less than $200K USD of revenue or funds raised in the prior 12 months.

[fleet canopy]

i can select it but i find it interesting

i was just looking at the link you sent them

[oak meadow]

is javascript better than c# for cloud code i don't know javascript but it seems to be the default for cloud code

[dusky forum]

Unity uses C#

[oak meadow]

yeah?

[quick aurora]

Hey can anyone help me with the fingers? Or know the problem

[cursive acorn]

I have been working on a game concept for a while, I just needed some thoughts and feedback. The game mechanic is gambling. You know how in balder's gate, you roll a dice to decide the odds of success? Same thing BUT, the dice roll decides what event will happen, not how likely is the event going to succeed. Roll a 6 sided dice. 1 - 3 will cause bad events to happen and anything 4 or above will be a good thing. Get a 1? Random object start falling around you. Get a 3? You slip on a banana peel. Get a 6? Your weapon goes into overdrive. Get a 4? Weapon hits stun enemies. Its a story based game but cartoon-ish.

[slow dirge]

Sounds like any typical tabletop game. It can be interesting or bad depending on how you implement it. Just this one mechanic doesn't really tell us anything.

[cursive acorn]

its a 3rd person shooter...

[spice locust]

Usually it's better to give more effort into wrting a detailed description of the problem

[quick aurora]

Sorry..but I managed to fix this problem due to a lovely persons help, but now that’s done Idk what’s wrong

[mental cobalt]

Gentleman women I am the chairman of the General enforcement Bureau I need three people who want to help make a discord a safer platform I have a director I need an assistant director I need a Colonel and a lieutenant colonel and also a sergeant major

[mental cobalt]

Do you want to help fight predators or not

I can pay real money and put people on a payroll for the higher ranks

[storm patio]

yikes

[spice locust]

No need to apologise, It's just that when for example I see your screenshot and very short question with 0 information - just "Anyone know the problem?" I can't even figure what what is your goal, and what is the problem you're trying to solve, not sure If you're refering to "Character is not in T pose" or maybe the bottom error, or maybe something else

Or this here or something totally different

That's why it's best to give more details, otherwise you look like you don't care and people will be less willing to help you

Hey! Do you guys know about the game called Plague INC? I want to make something similar to that but don't have any unique ideas. Any help?

[storm patio]

what help are you looking for exactly? getting unique ideas?

[placid parrot]

It's expensive I don't have enough money to buy pro version 🥀

[deft rock]

you don't need pro .. it's only required for projects with $200k +

[dusky forum]

If your company's finances haven't exceeded the $200k threshold within the last 12 months, you can probably use Unity with a personal license that is free.

I mean, to be honest, if you've made $200k within a year.. $200 a month ($2400 a year) isn't much - it's roughly one percent of what you've made.

[cold sky]

Is that, like, reasonable to put some effort to make all bullets particles?
Or like pooled 100 gameobjects with rigidbodies and tiny monobehaviours storing some data won't be much worse performance wise

[lapis gate]

bullet objects with particle systems attached to them

like there's obviously a lot more controlling of your projectiles via custom script

and that should matter more than performance concerns

also I think the rigidbody support is limited on particles. It only provides the most minimal detection, but that's usually fine for particles

[cold sky]

simple enemies simple slow bullets which only need to contain damage and team affiliation values

[placid parrot]

Yeah that true I only use Unity with personal

[gray dirge]

Do we have a problem then? If you don't need unity pro, don't buy it, most of us don't need either. If you need it, you probably have the money to buy it

[placid parrot]

Does my laptop with I5 11th 8GB Intel Iris Xe And 1TB HHD Plus 128GB NVME Is enough for Built in And URP

[gray dirge]

Depends what you do with it. For AAA games, I highly doubt, for something simple enough, I would bet so

[deft rock]

you're going to be limited with what games you can make with that

[placid parrot]

Yeah I can't make game with HDRP

[deft rock]

Just install Unity and try it..

[placid parrot]

[deft rock]

already what..

[placid parrot]

Well my project still not done yet

The name is my project is called The Death FMB

[woeful loom]

guys i know this might be a very simple fix but whi can't i see my wheel colider in scene / game or any other gizmo thingy,

and where do i enable them to be visible (i have a feeling that is the problem )

[storm patio]

there's a button at the top of scene view for gizmos, iirc

[woeful loom]

im sorry but where ?

[cyan lion]

how do i use ssgi in urp

i cant find it

in urp asset

[tidal veldt]

Yes...do you have any?

[stiff quest]

iirc you should have rigidbody on parent or in wheel collider gameobject

[arctic portal]

i have a script on my main menu scene where the player can choose a car. how do i spawn the selected car in another scene?

[vivid cedar]

Save information about which car the player chose in a DDOL object and use that data in the second scene

[arctic portal]

got it. but i have another issue. i have a car prefab, and an instance of it. the player chooses the instance. how do i spawn the prefab?

[azure pond]

🙁 i guess not

that is just a monthly payment for an annual commitment

[last mantle]

iirc there's no ssgi for urp

[vivid cedar]

Using the Instantiate function

But no the instance doesn't come until you instantiate the prefab. Until then you just have a prefab.

[arctic portal]

no but the instance is created in the editor... like i dragged the prefab into the scene.

miscommunication mb

like i want the prefab of this object

[vivid cedar]

Yeah but that's not relevant to the part about communicating things to the next scene

keep a reference to the prefab in a DDOL object

then you can instantiate it in the next scene

[arctic portal]

so when the player chooses, they choose one of those two objects in the image. so i how do i get the prefab of the object the player chose?

[vivid cedar]

you can do something like:

• menu scrpt has a list of prefabs for cars
• menu script instnatiates them all to show them in the menu
• player chooses one
• menus script stores that prefab reference on some DDOL object/script
• new scene loads
• new scene script instantiates the stored prefab

[vivid cedar]

by storing and passing a reference to it in a DDOL object to the next scene.

[arctic portal]

ohhhh okay i get the menu script to spawn the cars

thanks a lot that works!

[gray frigate]

You could also create a new ScriptableObject type that stores:

• a reference to a car prefab
• the name of the car
• etc.

but you may have everything you need on the car prefab itself

[charred iris]

Organising shader graphs, my favourite passtime while procrastinating.

[gray frigate]

i wish Unity had a way to auto-layout the graph

I imagine there are third party tools for that

[feral folio]

Hello, I have a problem with importing the shape keys the eyes from my charachter to unity, i tryed everything out in youtube and gbt, could someone helping me out?

[gray frigate]

explain your problem

[feral folio]

i have shape keys in blender for my eyes and mouth, but unity dont imporr it

[violet thunder]

Did you export .FBX or using .blend file?

[feral folio]

exprt fbx

[violet thunder]

The shape keys (blend shapes) show on the skinned mesh renderer in unity

[feral folio]

they are not there :/

[stuck flower]

Show it

[feral folio]

can i share u my screen?

im new in unity

[stuck flower]

There are no voice channels here

Just use screenshots

[feral folio]

okay

can u guide me from what u need my screenshot

lije 3d Asset

[stuck flower]

The inspector of the skinned mesh renderer

[charred fog]

@feral folio Create a thread please as well, if you are going to post multiple screenshots.

[stuck flower]

None of this is the skinned mesh renderer

[feral folio]

is it possibile that i can shre u my scree by dm? I am new at unity and i have a lack of vocabulary like skinned mesh render

[stuck flower]

No. Look for the skinned mesh renderer component on whatever object has the mesh

That is where the shape keys are

[violet thunder]

Why did you say this instead of asking what a skinned mesh renderer is -_-

[feral folio]

im so sry

[violet thunder]

Dont be afraid to ask!

But yeah it's a component on one of these child objects

[feral folio]

usulay under head, there should be eyes and mouth

like here

and eyes and mouth has blend shapes but unity dont show me them

[feral folio]

it should be under head but they are not there :/

[gray frigate]

you're not going to see the same hierarchy in the project window

[violet thunder]

What if you drag one of these here

into the scene

[gray frigate]

this is just displaying every asset created from the FBX file

it's a list of meshes, prefabs, animations, etc.

Drag the entire model prefab into the scene

You will then see objects in the hierarchy window

[feral folio]

yes, i did it already

my hierachiue looks like this

[primal creek]

should have created a thread for that

[gray frigate]

It's possible that the eyes and mouth are not skinned meshes, meaning that they'll be parented directly to a bone in the Armature

[feral folio]

so it means that eyes and mouth shouldt be parented on a bone?

[gray frigate]

I'm guessing that's what happened, at least

I usually don't have objects parented to each other in Blender like this.

[alpine ridge]

Hello. On which channel should i ask about render texture?

[gray frigate]

check out #1390346776804069396

you can make a thread or just post in #1391720450752516147

[azure pond]

did you author the model?

[latent meadow]

at this time, that is not important, nor does it add anything to help. i bother to say this, because you are pinging someone pointlessly.

[azure pond]

it just helps me understand if you can modify the model

it looks like you can, like if you are familiar with it / make decisions about how it should be set up

are you importing it as a .blend file or a .fbx file?

[feral folio]

im not sure what does it mean

i imported it as fbx

[azure pond]

i'm saying did YOU create the model or did you download it from somewhere

[feral folio]

oh i created it

[latent meadow]

literally the first question they were asked in the conversation you obviously went back to. are you trolling? pangloss

[azure pond]

gotchya, were you following a tutorial for how to set up the shape keys

[feral folio]

yes

[azure pond]

it might work better to let unity import the blend file
can you share that tutorial?

you are using them everywhere seemingly just fine

that is absurd. do you even understand what you are claiming? unless your point is to disagree with it

[feral folio]

i think i needed the vertexgroups for the weightpainingt, bones, for animatins

[azure pond]

https://youtu.be/MJX84IG0Kzk?t=117
yeah clearly

so i think it's a hierarchy issue

[safe garden]

random prefab q, is there a way for a prefab to save a thumbnail for it from a certain angle? just to have everything organized, right now my prefab in project folder appears as an empty thumbnail

[azure pond]

and the eyes and mouth all work in blender?

[feral folio]

yes

[azure pond]

you could try putting a copy of the .blend file into your assets directory and see how it is imported

then unity will choose settings

but i don't think that will matter

[feral folio]

tryed that already

but thank u for ur responses

[azure pond]

yeah

[latent meadow]

generally requires a third party script/asset, or one you make yourself, unless they recently changed things

[azure pond]

and what did you see?

same exact thing?

[latent meadow]

there is an #🔀┃art-asset-workflow which would be the place to ask. also, another tutorial may do you good. make sure you do not have modifiers that need to be applied (not including Armature modifier)

[azure pond]

it's just what it said, i mean, i don't know why it would say that

vertex groups with the shape keys

not vertex groups in general

[latent meadow]

indeed. which makes it a useless tutorial

[azure pond]

a game ready asset usually exports with 1 skinned mesh for everything, but of course, you do not have to do that.

plenty of assets work fine with hierarchy

[terse fog]

Hey all, been using Unity for a few years and have intermediate knowledge. I've been trying to research how to create a fake OS style game where the whole thing just takes place on a computer, but I haven't been able to find much info on it, anyone know any tutorials I can be pointed towards? I know it has a lot to do with Unity's UI system

[safe garden]

I found a few scripts but being a Unity n00b I wouldn't know how to actually run a script in engine, is there a scripting window?

[latent meadow]

something like that may be an Editor script, i which case will not activate unless in an Editor folder, anywhere in your games hierarchy. (this may create new menus, automagically)

I got a question , i dont know if this is not the right channel to ask this in , sorry if its not. So i have to do a game for a school competition the problem is that it has to run in browser, i downloaded the unity web support , the question is do i need to consider more the way that i program the game like can there be performance issues just because it runs into the browser?

[latent meadow]

probably best to talk to #🌐┃web and perhaps google while waiting for a reply there. short answer, yes, there are things to consider (i only do 3d (not web), so i could not list them)

[terse fog]

I know it isn't 1:1, but Simulacra comes to mind, or the computer gameplay of Scrutinized, KinitoPET, Home Safety Hotline

[charred fog]

Keep it in the approptiate channel, please

[pliant nacelle]

Why are the heights different?

The tiles are level when they're the same, but there's a height difference when mixing different types.

[charred fog]

They need to have the same anchor position to sort properly on Y

[charred fog]

Check the properties of other tiles and compare

[pliant nacelle]

"Are their anchor positions different?

[charred fog]

Also are you adding them to the same tilemap?

[azure pond]

this looks nice

[pliant nacelle]

yes

[azure pond]

they're different on purpose i think. i mean the some of these tiles are actually taller

[azure pond]

they are just actually different

[pliant nacelle]

I outsourced it.

[charred fog]

Also check tile asset itself, it has flags that can change pivot.

[azure pond]

well the sizes are different

@azure pond Size doesn't matter, only pivot matters. Stop derailing

i am trying to say that the heights of the tiles are actually different it's actually hard to tell

like the number of pixels

[pliant nacelle]

"Why is this happening?"

[charred fog]

As long as the tile scaled to the same size only pivot matters

[azure pond]

you can choose a pivot point that will make them appear like they are all flush at the top, you can experiment with it or count the number of vertical pixels and find the center

[azure pond]

hmm yes you can have a non-uniform scale but that is a very odd choice no?

[azure pond]

when you say heights what do you mean? the pivots are all the same in all of these

[azure pond]

are you saying you are trying to fix the issue where the tiles appear to be overlapping incorrectly?

youre somehow using the beta endpoint

for the unity ai thing

you need to update the unity ai package to fix this iirc

or remove it

[craggy pollen]

you got the library folder, delete it and let unity recreate it

[remote summit]

com.unity.ai.assistant

is this?

i got this package

@craggy pollen delete the library folder and reopen proyect?

[craggy pollen]

yes

and also uninstall the packages that you dont need or you think might be causing this form the package manager

[remote summit]

ok eliminating library will tell u what happens when is done and reopen

is elimiating a hella lot of things

[warm locust]

dude i just learned about the v key this is actually revolutionary

[remote summit]

ah sweet it wont lemme remove it

[craggy pollen]

you need to close unity

[remote summit]

i closed it

but not the hub

fcking windows

[balmy kettle]

the hub has nothing to do with deleting the library folder within the project though

[remote summit]

ye it just tells me i dont have permissions lmao

any console command to tell this to delete already?

[craggy pollen]

i think you have to restart your pc no idea what you are doing there

[balmy kettle]

i mean, if you don't have permission to delete the folder then the project is in a protected system path when it really shouldn't be

[remote summit]

is in my users

like c://myuser/pruebas2d/library

is that not good :d?

bcs i put most of my things just under myuser

[craggy pollen]

if you are not able to delete the folder i am guesing unity is still running in the background

[remote summit]

i closed it with task manager

but i ll just restart and brb

gonna be faster

[latent meadow]

it is probably under the control of OneDrive

[remote summit]

ok i finally deleted it

somehow it was still open even tho i closed everything

on my way to reopen the proyect

well bakc on here @craggy pollen

i still got that

the weird api thing

[craggy pollen]

what packages do you have installed

[remote summit]

gonna list them all :

[fleet canopy]

you could just send the manifest file

[remote summit]

what is that file

[remote summit]

where can i find it

[fleet canopy]

in your project files

[remote summit]

where more concretly

[fleet canopy]

there should be a file named manifest.json I believe

It will be in a folder named Packages

[remote summit]

found it

@craggy pollen

here is the packages unity installed fresh when deleted library

@fleet canopy here if u wanna watch them also ❤️

"com.unity.ai.assistant": "1.0.0-pre.12",
"com.unity.ai.generators": "1.0.0-pre.20",
"com.unity.ai.inference": "2.5.0",

I think it might have smth to do with this which i have 0 idea what are these tbh

[fleet canopy]

they’re the ai assistant packages

Just remove them if you don’t know what they do

you can delete them from the manifest file and it will delete it from your project on reload

[remote summit]

that is cool i ll try that

i ll tell u how it goes

well i still got the issue

@fleet canopy didnt solve :c

Yo guys what's so bad about imperfect pixel art? Bc isn't it the only way to make smooth camera movement in pixel art games?

[worldly cave]

I dont think those 2 things are related at all

[latent meadow]

look up pixel perfect camera.

[lime sorrel]

those are the 2 errors that I'm encountering for now

[spiral pelican]

it still has pixel snapping

[latent meadow]

talk to #🖼️┃2d-tools for better answers

[remote summit]

ok i kinda found the issue i removed toolkit and generator AI library

but its still there, its still in the packageCache even if not in the manifest even if i delete library folder it will come back into the cache really crazy. i went inside the proyect and went into packet manager and i found the generator com.unity.ai.generators i cannot delete it. If i click on it the option to remove it is in grey

is a pre-release package btw

[latent meadow]

we are looking for errors shown in the Console. again, all this shows is the symptom, not the cause.

[lime sorrel]

the main menu one show this

[latent meadow]

that is a warning. are there no errors?

[lime sorrel]

and the other shows nothing

[lime sorrel]

no

[latent meadow]

are you sure you do not have them filtered out?

[lime sorrel]

what do u mean?

[latent meadow]

you can filter what shows in the console. it is a matter of clicking to hide errors

[lime sorrel]

and in the scene changing one nothing appears

[latent meadow]

ok. what is the actual situation? did you get a project from the teacher that was mostly complete, and are meant to fix some issues, or did you build this whole thing, art, code, etc, from scratch?

[lime sorrel]

I built everything from scratch

art, code, everything

[latent meadow]

ok. and have you done the basics, like restart the computer?

sounds silly, but it sometimes helps

[lime sorrel]

yes, I'm having this problems since December

it probably has to do with the scripts

but idk where

[latent meadow]

it is most probably a bad call in the script to determine what to do when selected.
in that case, you should head to #💻┃code-beginner and see if anyone has time to adopt it

.. i do not understand how you made code from scratch but this is not something you know where to look for. Ai did the coding then?

[lime sorrel]

I searcheed on youtube, and was following tutorials

and then it stoped working

and I tried to solve it

[latent meadow]

ok. try talking to the mentioned room

[lime sorrel]

and it became worse

okok

[remote summit]

i tried deleting the packages fo ai toolkit

[storm patio]

no need to lead with that, just ask

[remote summit]

and the generator ai

from the cache

it exploded

and getting a lot of compiling errors

[storm patio]

please send your entire question as a single message

[remote summit]

sry is the panick T_T

[storm patio]

this isn't a time sensitive thing, no need to panic, you'll end up overlooking something

[latent meadow]

if you already removed it from the manifest, perhaps just go into the project folder and delete it manually. with unity closed.(this is a guess, and i do not claim it is safe)

[remote summit]

i was having issues with ai.toolkit which idk why was there but it was sneding me a lot of debug.logs all time about API not in usage or smth and i think it was what makes my unity freeze a lot randomy even when not running the scene. So i deleted them from the manifest but they stayed in the cachce even when i deleted the whole library they regenerated

so i closed unity and i decided to delete them from cachepackage

i reopened unity and bum explosion

[gray frigate]

show us the actual errors you are currently seeing

[remote summit]

btw i did that bcs in the packet manager i had no option to remove them ( it was in gray so couldnt click remove the generator AI library )

[storm patio]

if it was grayed out then probably something else depended on it

[remote summit]

gonna have to wait a bit bcs i deleted the whole library to try fix it. but it was a lot of compilign errors in random things like in other libraries that is not my actual code like 2d things

[storm patio]

that would probably be a potential cause of the errors

[remote summit]

thanks god i copied the whole proyect to another place

i suppose worst case scenario i can renerage it from a copy?

i copied all the proyect like myproyect wiht Library Assets etc

[remote summit]

this are the folders in the packageFolder that are fking me

they refuse to die

and this is what i get

i get a lot of these debug.logs from time to time and apparently this might be the cause of my freezes. might also have smth to do wiht my unity ram usage going higher and higer with the use time

do someone know if i might be using this? bcs this is what was causing compilign errors when i force removed the generator from the folder

[spiral pelican]

Guys, why does the gun and the background like glitch backwards and forwards and go from blurry to not blurry?

[left coyote]

does anyone know how to achieve a more realistic movement with IK (animation rigging)?

[tall hearth]

could be wrong but looks like you are using a pixel perfect camera

[spiral pelican]

Ah yeah that's why

why did that fix it?

[tall hearth]

cause the sprites arent exactly in line with the pixels so it tries to align it in rendering but at the same time it's moving so it'll align to different pixels each frame giving it the jumping (or so i assume)

[spiral pelican]

ahhhhh

[spiral pelican]

btw do u know of any way to have damping on pixel art games that looks smooth? Like literally ANY way?

pixel perfect camera never worked for me

[worldly cave]

am i missing something? because that looks perfectly fine...

[tall hearth]

do you mean like antialiasing?

[storm patio]

have you tried disabling pixel snapping on the pixel perfect camera

[spiral pelican]

Yes, and that makes it blurry because it can't render sub-pixel

i know godot can, but not unity

[spiral pelican]

maybe..?

idk

like how it drifts to the camera instead of staying locked on it

like what this dude does

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK9wym71F7s

[spiral stream]

does anyone know anything about bluetooth integration and how to get it to work with unity

[left coyote]

the hand movement was a bit off but I got it working now

[vivid cedar]

typically you'd implement it natively on whatever platform you're targetting and then interact with your native implementation via the appropriate interface. For example - running Java code on Android: https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.0/Documentation/Manual/android-jni-apis-unity.html

!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.

[rose lichen]

tried everything unity editor didnt install

[balmy kettle]

what did the logs say

[tawny quartz]

i was following the create with code tutorial and found errors i dont know whats wrong

the truck wont have the camara follow it but the code looks right

[slow dirge]

Need to learn to read those errors. Errors are your friend - they tell you that something is wrong and provide info on it. Without errors something could go wrong and you might not know that.

[tawny quartz]

no nothing pope d up

it just went below truck and didnt follow no error

[balmy kettle]

"found errors"
"no errors"
so then you need to provide relevant information

[tawny quartz]

mb

idk what is wrong

[slow dirge]

You need to open the console tab

[tawny quartz]

no errors in consol tab

[slow dirge]

What about warnings?

If there's nothing, then start investigating: think logically how is your camera supposed to move? Are there components or scripts that could be moving incorrectly/at all? It doesn't have to be an issue in your code, but if you're moving the camera in your code, there's a high chance there is.

[tawny quartz]

yeah idk what

i just did what the tutorial showed

[slow dirge]

Then you didn't. Or the tutorial is for an older unity version and there were some important changes. You need to think with your own head. Not just copy the tutorial.

I bet it's the former, since you don't get any errors.
Try following the tutorial again and this time really understand what they're doing.

[tawny quartz]

ok

and im acculy

yeah i put in in void start intead of void update

[brisk anvil]

hey, I come across a very weird issue.
Unity is using 100% of my HDD where it is installed completely on my SSD.

The Editor Installation,
The Project files,
Everything is on Drive C (SSD)

My Drive D is an old drive which has some old Unity projects from 5 years ago, but I still haven't opened any of them.
I connected it just last week.

Whenever I close a project I work on, Drive D is 100% utilized and it takes forever for the project to close.

Any ideas on how I can debug this?

[exotic relic]

Did you try to restart your pc

[brisk anvil]

yea, multiple times

[latent meadow]

perhaps you moved your cache to d:

[brisk anvil]

hub and upm caches are both in custom paths on c:

[latent meadow]

perhaps you moved your systems swap file to d:

[brisk anvil]

I should move my house, my friends and my life to d:

aw man

@latent meadow I've been on this server for more than 6 years now,
I bet you there are more than enough people here who blocked me for whatever I posted as a teenager which I'll deal with it now as an adult

[flat breach]

What country ?

[brisk anvil]

doesn't matter, just replying to Hunanbean's blocked comment

[brisk anvil]

anyways if anyone know what could be the cause of this, I'd love any ideas

[flat breach]

Nothing matters, it’s just a question, you answer or ignore it.

[slow dirge]

It's virtually impossible for us to tell beyond what has been said already.
The only things I can think of:

• Read the editor log. Scan for path mentions on D.
• Use software like "Everything" to see recent file writes on your system. If any files on D pop up when sorted by latest modified time, then you can investigate from there.

[brisk anvil]

I forgot to check the logs
Hot Reload seems to touch Drive D. I never routed it to there or anything, but at least I found who's getting it stuck.

Thanks a lot

[brisk anvil]

also I see you updated your pfp, this one is pretty cool 🙂

[onyx shale]

hii, is there a server where you can share your unity creations?

[brisk anvil]

there are many on the discord servers hub,
And of course you can share here! #1180170818983051344 & #🏆┃daily-win are fantastic

And I'd love if you ping me after you upload :)

[latent meadow]

you can make a #1180170818983051344 and share your project there

and the udon server after i left an help message and fell asleep x.x

udon and unity are the saaamme just udon is just "codeless" coding lol

nodees?

Whats the point of that when unity has its own visual scripting

Thats also pointless

[cloud frost]

so ppl can make vrc maps

easily

and not have to know 2000 hours of codfing

Pretty sure vr chat is older than unity's visual scripting solution.

Im sure it is, i just had no clue it had anything to do with it lol

anybody know of a free alternative to KeywordRecognizer/dictationRecognizer? As from what I'm reading keyword recognizer and dictation recognizer only works for windows 10, and I'd like it to be able to work for all platforms or at least both windows 11 and 10.

[tall hearth]

Vrc / udon is designed in a away that you cant dynamically allocare ram when the scene is running (vrc world in this case) it has to all be preallocated on the worlds creation so things like arrays, lists and stuff have a fixed size, and you cannot create new objects during run time.

[nocturne bolt]

Yo how come the audio source is messed up for me? Like I put the spatial blend to 3d and made The max distance and min distance right, Like if I put the max distance far in the min distance close I still can't hear it but if I put it up to like 50 I can finally hear it

[latent meadow]

perhaps talk to #🔊┃audio

[cloud frost]

uhh does anyone know of a good video or free asset for making a card game in 3d, spefically just a deck, shuffle, deck creator and stuff

[twilit junco]

in a card game, let say a poker type or even a ccg like hearthstone, if I used a statemachine, is it better to have a global statemachine to handle the turns for each player or each player would have its own state machine when it's their turn?

[potent geyser]

Probably both. A global one would handle the overall flow of the game: Setting Up -> Drawing Cards -> Player Turn -> Opponent Turn -> (Rinse Repeat) -> Outcome

And then during a player's turn, they'd locally handle their states: Draw Phase -> Play Phase -> End Phase etc.

[terse shore]

new games are so trash i think we have to create good games

[lofty leaf]

hello! i was wondering how would i fix my tree prefab that turns pink when i walk towards it?

[slow dirge]

Sounds like one of the lods materials is not compatible with your render pipeline or the shader has a compile error.

[lofty leaf]

i kept messing around with the render pipelines so much but nothings working.. the trees apparently work every pipeline but theyre all still pink. i managed to make em turn pink but only when im close

[slow dirge]

Investigate the tree prefab, look at its materials. One of them is probably pink in the preview as well.
Also make sure to check for errors and warnings in the console.

[lofty leaf]

thanks! i will try that. i like your game btw! super fun hehe

Make one that has all the components you want and copy it?

[cyan lion]

i am working on a game, its just a prototype right now. and for sake of convenience and testing i made a function that resets the position of the player. this is how it works. i store the starting position of the player in a vector3 in start function, then i made a function that assigns the start position to the current transform.position. it is not working at all for some reason.

Guys, how can i get best graphics for low poly (polygon) games? Like TABS

[reef dome]

what do you mean with best graphics?

[tawdry void]

I mean graphics that suit low poly and shows it better like that

[deft rock]

good lighting and post processing

[reef dome]

There is no 1 way to do this, graphics are a composition of lighting, post processing, models, textures

If you are a solo dev I would advise to start at URP, look at samples and guides for it

[deft rock]

Those are probably using vertex painting (is that the correct term?), no texturse - like Synty assets do

[reef dome]

oh yeah mark textures as optional then 😄

[tawdry void]

Yeah I know it, but, i cant get it while i tried many versions of post processing

Maybe there is some tutorial or smth. But i could not find

[reef dome]

its a skill you have to learn, a painter isnt going to paint a masterpiece by looking at one or two tutorials either

and a hard one at that

[deft rock]

There isn't a single tutorial that's going to give you the look you're after. It's a long road learning a lot of the various factors that going into making things look good... it's a skill, a discipline.. it's art

Whats the correct way to send like a spawn payload (With unity NGO) to network behaviours? I figured I could use network variables and set them before calling Spawn(). It seems to work, but it gives me warnings and im wondering if there's a proper way to do this?

[safe garden]

hi guys, not sure if I'm allowed to bring this up here as might be seen as political? but if anyone's leaving Discord because of the upcoming age verification, are there any plans to set up a Unity channel on a separate platform like Fluxer?

[plain dagger]

This isn't related to unity general help is it?

[plain dagger]

You should be able to have an init function that's a command to set these things

[wise yacht]

How do you mean? Like an RPC that I make called Init() ?

[safe garden]

no sorry

[plain dagger]

Yea with it's arguments as things to apply and set on the new instance.
It should arrive and be called on clients after spawning

[wise yacht]

Hm I see fair enough

[plain dagger]

Though I'm not sure why it's moaning about the network variables being set at this time

That also sounds viable to me

[wise yacht]

Yeah same lol because it seems to work just fine

[plucky aspen]

hi. does anyone know how i can make better fog? i'm currently using unity's fog thing in the environment but it feels dead and doesn't really cut out the sky

how do i make it so the player cant see the sky?

p.s. i've tried using volumes but theres no fog override
edit 2: v 6.3 LTS 6000.3.7f1
edit 3: i apologise if there's a channel for fog and such

thank you 🙏

Ok so here is my problem.

I have made a controller with 8 direction movement with 8 direction animations.

The problem is with animations, I used mixamo which gave me what I wanted but messed up the animations because one hand way more than the other hand holding the gun which looks off.

But the hand placement in the idle animation is perfectly fine

So what I want is that the upper body has the animation of idle while the lower body is affected by movement

[balmy sphinx]

Hello everyone, can I find some ressources on this discord to help me make NPR anime style characters in Unity for my game ? Like the image below

[potent geyser]

Imagine telling people you're waiting for them to come at your beck and call.

[potent geyser]

There are no resources here to do specific things like that, because they're catered for the game they're from. "Style" can also mean different things to different people.

[balmy sphinx]

Thank you for your reply !
I know style alone can mean different things, isn't anime NPR enough to understand what I mean ?

[craggy pollen]

avatar mask is what you need

[potent geyser]

I mean, are you asking about toon shading?

Because that is an over abundant topic online. There are also countless assets on the store that give you that kind of shader captabilities.

[pastel onyx]

Yeah well I forgot how to use it.
I'm coming back to gamedev after more than a year

Almost 1.6 years

1.8 maybe

[craggy pollen]

how many months would that be

[jagged sage]

how can i make the checkground collider not affect the square

[craggy pollen]

make it isTrigger

[stuck flower]

So are we. You didn't ask a question.

[jagged sage]

the collider check if its intersecting with the ground so

[stuck flower]

Ah, Discord scroll locked.

Still, there was no question at the time you decided to act like a Roman Emperor

[balmy sphinx]

toon shading is the word yes, thank you !
The assets I saw on the store didn't quite convince me, I was hoping I could find more specific ones out here, or help customize them a bit more

[pastel onyx]

Almost 2 years so I guess 16 months maybe?

[craggy pollen]

yes so you can still use a isTrigger for that

[pastel onyx]

My brain can't do math atm

[jagged sage]

it would use the squares collider then

[potent geyser]

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/vfx/shaders/anime-shading-plus-281737

Some of these are pretty spot on. Maybe just need to look for anime shading/toon shading.

[jagged sage]

i tried it rn and the square goes off alot before turning

[craggy pollen]

do you just want ground detection?

[jagged sage]

yeah pretty much

[balmy sphinx]

it does look nicer than what I saw ! thanks mate
I'll look deeper then, I might have missed some of them ..

[jagged sage]

im using OnTriggerExit2D for it

[craggy pollen]

you dont need that extra collider you can simply use your player to detect the ground

[jagged sage]

how so?

[craggy pollen]

OnCollisionEnter you check for the ground tag

[jagged sage]

tag is a specific object you add to it right?

to know what is what

[craggy pollen]

tag is tag you add to your gameobject

[jagged sage]

ight

lemme try

[craggy pollen]

OnCollisionEnter2D and OnCollisionExit2D

Hi

I'm trying to crack the Granny Legacy Il2cpp

How can I crack this

[craggy pollen]

not allowed here

[modest meteor]

you were already told that it's not allowed, why do you keep asking

[gleaming umbra]

What ??

[storm patio]

what did you think was going to happen tbh

read #📖┃code-of-conduct

[viscid raft]

This server does not allow discussions about cheats or the decompilation of games or tools, no matter the context.

[gleaming umbra]

But this is Unity server why I can't talk here

[storm patio]

this isn't the granny legacy il2cpp cracking server

[viscid raft]

You can talk here. You can't talk about decompiling a dll.

[balmy sphinx]

you see the thinkg I'm having a hard time with, is figuring out if X or Y asset shader will allow me A or B final render if I tweak it a little bit, for instance that guy on reddit has a specific rendering that I haven't seen anywhere, and I wonder if I can get something a little bit similar https://www.reddit.com/r/Unity3D/comments/1qoqwgb/i_added_multiple_ways_to_cast_spells_in_my_anime/

[gleaming umbra]

What I il2cpp proper Explain ?

[potent geyser]

That looks like normal toon shading with textures, similar to something like Genshin Impact.

[storm patio]

you could google that for a start, some degree of prior research is kinda expected here

[potent geyser]

There is no catch all shader that will achieve that exact look, because it's not just flat colours. You will have to do textures which is 50% of the job.

[stuck flower]

Don't crosspost and also pay attention when people tell you that you can't ask something here.
#💻┃code-beginner message

[balmy sphinx]

interesting .. so the shaders are usually just bought online, then the texture is where you get your real creativity expression

[potent geyser]

Essentially

Toon shading really is just how the lighting/shadows look on the model, with some effect on how the colours are ramped up. But the details are still coming from the painted textures.

[balmy sphinx]

that is way more clear now !

and textures are always that "paint" effect ?

[balmy sphinx]

I don't have many reference point, as to me most anime game look like genshin

[potent geyser]

Normal lighting > Toon Shaded

Well, in this case, textures would be hand made yes. You wouldn't be using photos or "realistic" textures.

[balmy sphinx]

right, so your creativity is now what kind of paint you do

[potent geyser]

Yep

[balmy sphinx]

is it watercolor, or not, and even watercolor has many variations

ghibli style is one of them

ok so now, I need to find ressources or examples of texture usage to have more inspirations as to what I prefer, but I think the best way to do that is just to experiment with my artists

[potent geyser]

It will be infinitely easier if an artist just does what's comfortable for them. You can provide the reference examples, but having someone 1:1 copy something else is just going to be uncessessary stress.

[balmy sphinx]

yea 100%, I was mainly thinking of having a broad direction, because the artist can also feel lost without it, and if his choices don't work out and he keeps iterating

[potent geyser]

Just make sure you have a workflow for them to test it in engine, if you're using a toon shader.

[errant swift]

I currently am in the pre-development stage of my first game and I'm thinking of using Unity. I've been tinkering with Godot and have liked it for it being open source, its simplicity and easy navigation, but am worried about game encryption due to how easy it is to access all of the files, including the Godot resources and project file. I was looking at Unity which seems like an interesting choice. It's native console porting and 2D capabilities. But the UI is a little intimidating and I'm not entirely sure if it's what I need. The game will be a 32-bit topdown RPG with fully voice-acted visual novel cutscenes and point and click puzzles and room exploration. It'll be a horror game. I'm still looking at some different game mechanics, but it'll definitely be 2D. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, thank you !!!!!

[balmy sphinx]

you mean a way for them to see the final render ? I thought you could do that easily, or does a toon shader make it more complex to see

[potent geyser]

Find games that you're taking inspiration from and look at what engines they've used. Unity will probably come up in a lot of them.

[potent geyser]

I just mean, let them easily iterate and see the changes on the actual toon shaded character in engine so they can make necessary tweaks.

[jagged sage]

it works but it doesnt

[craggy pollen]

show the code instead, it is more helpful

[craggy pollen]

that is an image not the code

What sucks is I have and they're completely different 😭 RPG Maker, Ren'Py, a Java-based engine, and Adobe Flash/Adobe Air. Do you think Unity would be able to implement the capabilities of those engines?

[craggy pollen]

it is ok you forgot to press paste

[jagged sage]

[potent geyser]

Yep, Unity is a blank slate, you can do whatever you want.

[jagged sage]

https://paste.ofcode.org/34ZUaKgMDuZrnp8uGdEb8tg

ok

this should be it hopefully

[potent geyser]

If you're making a visual novel though, Ren'Py is the goto engine for that I believe, since it's made specifically for that genre.

[errant swift]

Is there a way to import Ren'Py into Unity? I don't even know how that would work but it's worth asking

[craggy pollen]

make use of Debug.Log right inside the if statements

[potent geyser]

NOpe

But you can check the asset store for visual novel plugins.

Can you send some tutorials for avatar mask?

[craggy pollen]

just research, you will find a few docs and tuts

[jagged sage]

oh yeah it doesnt detect WHEN its not grounded

[craggy pollen]

for the collision detection you also need a rigidbody, i cant see it in the enemy inspector

[stuck flower]

Unity uses C# which is Turing-Complete so literally every imaginable thing is possible

[jagged sage]

it is there

[errant swift]

What does that mean? Sorry, I'm new to all of this 😭

[storm patio]

any system that is "turing complete" is as capable as any other. a computer is turing complete. c# is turing complete.
anything you've seen a computer do, c# can do.

anything you've seen all those other engines do, c# can do

[pastel onyx]

Ok well what if

I don't do anything

Just adjust the camera to hide the problem?

It only needs a tiny bit of adjustment I think

[storm patio]

is this in relation to some previous message...?

[pastel onyx]

Oh yeah

My previous

Sorry I'm not well

[stuck flower]

It means what I said it means. It's mathematically provable that you can create any program

[little temple]

You can do anything with Unity as long as you can find the right tools or you are able to make them yourself. The engine you use depends on several factors, such as your experience or willingness to learn, as well as out-of-the box functionalities of the engine and available plugins. For a 2D top-down RPG with visual novel cutscenes RPG Maker can be used to great lengths while relying mostly on plugins (there are a lot) and basic programming knowledge. Unity on the other hand is a blank canvas, you can do whatever you want, as simple or as complex as you want, as long as you know how to do it, without having to work around existing implementations such as in RPG Maker. You can always just try out all the options you have, make a simple prototype and see what suits you best.

[errant swift]

Tysm this is actually very helpful

[errant swift]

Oh okay. Thank you!!

[floral mauve]

Hello do any one knows about the issue with DX12 that the screen starts flickering ?

[void egret]

Getting this again: "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. Unable to find a corresponding location". Have deleted and regenerated Library, have deleted obj folder, have regenerated csproj and sln files, have changed file encoding from UTF-8 BOM to UTF-8 (as suggested by one forum post), restarted the machine, still can't breakpoint anywhere in this file.
The same issue applies to multiple other files in the project, the only pattern I can see is that the files which can't be breakpointed are classes not derived from MonoBehaviour.

[violet thunder]

Like different editor windows/panels going black for a moment?

[floral mauve]

yup, not only that is flickering in playmode, if i swap to D11 its fine but with D12 its working really bad

[gray flame]

Use the unity SDK or skip it? Looks like it has a million features, but specifically Leaderboards, anti cheat, analytics and maybe ads someday?

[twin wigeon]

Wait is unity completly stopping dev of HDRP?

[worldly cave]

Where are you getting this news?

[craggy pollen]

that is actually true

[worldly cave]

I dont know

thats why im asking

where are they seeing this

im litterally curious lol

[craggy pollen]

it was announced a few weeks ago

[worldly cave]

"HDRP is moving into maintenance" is it this?

[craggy pollen]

the new standart will be the urp, they will integrate a few of the hdrp features

[worldly cave]

built in volumetric fog and lighting i hope

[charred fog]

https://discussions.unity.com/t/render-pipelines-strategy-for-2026/1710004

[worldly cave]

URP - Unified Render Pipeline

maybe for the best

[twin wigeon]

Are they like trying to make URP cable as HDRP or will URP still stay a pipline not for AAA games in terms of graphics and features

[potent geyser]

Capable as HDRP

[twin wigeon]

So trying to have only one pupline?

For all

[worldly cave]

yes that seems to be the goal

[twin wigeon]

If that is the case then I like tbh

[worldly cave]

thats why they are adding some previously hdrp exclusive features to urp

or rather features that you couldnt have natively with urp

[twin wigeon]

Like what?

[worldly cave]

"This will include physical light units support, pre and auto exposure, physical sky and dynamic sky manager, real-time global illumination (see a sneak peak demo at the end of this presentation), screen space reflections, on-tile post processing for mobile devices, and more."

[twin wigeon]

Will URP then still be light weight as it is now

because HDRP is way more performance heavy

[stoic lake]

GI and SSR in the urp

used to pray for days like these

hopefully they're going to add the HDRP water too

[worldly cave]

urp being "lightweight" and hdrp being "heavy" has always depended entirely on how you actually use them

[potent geyser]

It's not even a comparison anymore, not since they dropped the "LWRP" name for URP.

[tawny zinc]

i'm bored

I wanted to ask if unity has some memory issues with the latest versions as I've been sometimes ending up with unity taking 20 extra GB of my memory while running the editor

[random stirrup]

i see videos of unity and in them i can see a visible camera and a sunlight, on my screen theres not that?

[balmy kettle]

then use the three dot menu

Hello everyone ! Sorry to annoy, im stuck on this page this hours now, i have a very good wifi and i dont think it's normal. I need to open my project to work on it but i cant... Do someone know how to fix this ? I've read online that i need to delete a "manifest" but im to afraid to make it without advice !! Thanks everyone. (the project's only 7mo)

[gray frigate]

physical light units are a big thing I'd love to have

obviously I could just figure it out myself

(with the appropriate tonemapping settings)

[worldly cave]

for me its the built in Real time GI and SSR

as well as hopefuly volumetric effects

[gray frigate]

"manifest" probably refers to the package manifest, which tells Unity which packages your project needs

you would not want to delete the entire thing!

sometimes people remove specific packages from the manifest (if they're causing Unity to break in a way that keeps you from using the package manager)

One thing you might do is to close unity and then delete the Library folder

the Library contains stuff generated from your project's assets, like compiled shaders, imported textures, and copies of packages

it's not uncommon for it to get corrupted, and you can safely delete and regenerate it

note that you'll lose a bit of editor data, like which scene was last open

Of course, before you do anything, you should have some kind of backup of your project

[latent meadow]

also, did you ensure your system meets min specs for Unity? considering you say the project is 7 months old, that is probably not an issue.

[sacred sparrow]

what are your system specs btw

Question

Is it possible to make an AI Simulation in Unity 2D with (no ML-Agents), And with sprite sheets

[worldly cave]

What do you mean by an AI simulation?

like pathfinding simulated or?

Because you mentioned ML*s and i dont know if youre trying to specify its the different kind of AI or is it something else

[stuck flower]

C# is Turing-Complete. The answer to any "is it possible to" question is "yes"

[sacred sparrow]

you just need to have the patience to actually do it

https://github.com/dotnet/TorchSharp

if you want

[atomic folio]

I mean like ecosystems like that

[tall hearth]

or processing power to, i doubt 4GBs of ddr3 would be happy running any level of advanced ai

[atomic folio]

Like AI ecosystems

[sacred sparrow]

huh?

[worldly cave]

youre not exactly being specific

an "ecosystem" is such a broad term

ecosystem of what in particular

[tall hearth]

so not AI (artificial intelligence) but ai like character pathfinding and and some semblance of sentience?

[atomic folio]

Well a bit of that

But I truely want the ai to explore surroundings

[sacred sparrow]

then you need ML

[worldly cave]

I feel like this is a bit of an xy problem as well

just a tiny bit

[sacred sparrow]

you can use a tiny ML model that sends info to a "fake" AI

[worldly cave]

Would be easier if you laid out in detail exactly what you want and how it should work, maybe the solution is simpler than you think

make a thread for it honestly

[tall hearth]

yeah im not sure i would consider this something that need a LLM like what he seems to be thinking

[sacred sparrow]

the model will just collect info of the surroundings

[sacred sparrow]

nah, LLM is actually the worst choice here

[atomic folio]

Can I just use complex scripting

[sacred sparrow]

not if you want it to actually "learn" about the environment

why are you so against ML btw

[atomic folio]

I do not want it to learn

[sacred sparrow]

then what do you mean with this...

[atomic folio]

I mean writing a code that let's it observe the place without ML-AGENTS

[sacred sparrow]

well, they observe and then what?

what should it do after it sees the environment

[copper gust]

Yes

[stuck flower]

What do you mean by "Observe"

[atomic folio]

Try to survive for as long as it can

[copper gust]

You can code anything

[atomic folio]

With food water and other materials

[sacred sparrow]

then it's just an algorithm

but it needs to have pre-coded actions

if you really want it to decide on it's own, the best choice is a small ML model brain (very simple btw)

training and using a very small one like that will not require a lot of power

[atomic folio]

Does it contain reward and punishment

[sacred sparrow]

yes

well, that's what UnityML does

also, Unity makes it very simple to use too

[atomic folio]

Ok I will take your word for it

[sacred sparrow]

look for the tutorial on YT from CodeMonkey

[golden wraith]

hello, is there a section I can ask help about the unity editor?

[sacred sparrow]

well

here is an example

else #🔎┃find-a-channel

[golden wraith]

thanks

[spare sigil]

I was gonna ask if there was a help channel too because i dont think i see one in there?

[quaint delta]

what makes c++ better for performance than c#? is it because c++ generally uses less words? or it's deeper than that?

[deft rock]

Practically every channel is a help channel -> id:browse find the topic that matches your question

[copper gust]

the answer could span hours of content

[deft rock]

no it is not word count

[stuck flower]

Word count has absolutely nothing to do with performance

[quaint delta]

i got my answer. i don't wanna get into c++ stuff. c# is already a nightmare for me as a beginner lol

[deft rock]

and Unity is C# only

[plain dagger]

yea you dont want the answer to that question 😐

[sacred sparrow]

well, first of all, C++ is directly compiled to machine code

C# is not

tho it can be

[plain dagger]

joke missed alert

[quaint delta]

your making me more curious bruh

[sacred sparrow]

oh god

another one XD

[azure pond]

has anyone else been hearing of licensing hassling lately?

[plain dagger]

The main difference is c# being a "managed language" where cpp is native language compiled direct to "machine code".
c# holds your hand and makes things easier
c++ is fast a f but if you trip up you die

[latent meadow]

even the linux kernel is moving to Rust vs c because of that ^

[sacred sparrow]

(mem management is hell in c++)

[sacred sparrow]

also, java is nearly as fast as c++, but has GC

lol

[worldly cave]

mem management is hell

[sacred sparrow]

yeah true

[worldly cave]

to be fair i dont even see the point of Java anymore

WORA used to be a big deal

[sacred sparrow]

it kinda still is tbh

a lot of stuff runs on java

[plain dagger]

the jvm is good but the .net clr is probably as fast now

[worldly cave]

i like to think that a lot of things run on Java now for the same reason the pentagon still uses floppy disks

i do like Java though i cant lie

[latent meadow]

should probably thread at this point

[quaint delta]

sooo c# feels like talking with a robot that understands your language and is chill and easy to deal with. kind of guy
while c++ is like talking to a robot that you are forced to learn he's language and he requires you to be more straightforward when talking?

[sacred sparrow]

yes

[copper gust]

imagine your working a job

c# is doing your job with ohs esque safety practices
c++ is not

[sacred sparrow]

if you look at a cast in c++ the wrong way (or a pointer too) say cya to your mem / app

[worldly cave]

i think i second the motion for this to become a thread

[sacred sparrow]

yep

[quaint delta]

yeah i spent hours and days on some trouble shooting only cuz i didn't write the code the way it liked
