But it's giving an error for a specific UnitySetup executable, which I think the hub creates, but could be either case

[hidden cypress]

no

[latent meadow]

did they ever say how much space is on c:?

[stuck flower]

Are there any other installers in that directory?

[latent meadow]

back later, reinstalling OS, again

[hidden cypress]

on c: 5 GB on D: 600GB

[latent meadow]

there ya go. will not work. but, i have to leave now.

[stuck flower]

5GB is not enough

[hidden cypress]

I literally install everything from this program on disk D. What is it all about?

[storm patio]

Make sure you have enough space including on C: drive.

[stuck flower]

So when you said you did everything on the checklist that was a lie

[storm patio]

dude did not read the install checklist

you still need space on C: to do stuff

[hidden cypress]

IM READED

[stuck flower]

The installer uses the directory your OS is installed to to extract temporary files. If it can't extract them, it can't move them to the D drive

That's why the checklist specifically says to clear space on your C drive

[hidden cypress]

I thought that it meant the disk on which the installation takes place

[stuck flower]

If it did, it would have said that

[storm patio]

including on C: drive

hi. why does my camera do this even tho its set to solid colour? it reacts with the scene still though. i.e. when i rotate the camera up, i can see the sun. Using unity 6.3 LTS with HDRP

[vivid cedar]

window-> lighting-> environment

[plucky aspen]

it seems empty. do i need to create a default profile?
(sorry i don't mess with lighting much)

[vivid cedar]

no this is good - this is where i'd expect to see skybox settings.

althouygh if you're HDRP that's outside my wheelhouse

Maybe ask in #1390346776804069396

[plucky aspen]

ah alright thank you. i'll do that in a second after i finish up the broken menu's again 😭

[storm patio]

spamming the same question in multiple channels

it wastes helpers' time (and by extension your own time) by not seeing other answers that have already been written

[gentle shale]

Hey guys! I'm having this issue where, if I select an object and suddenly rotate the camera, the object passes right through the player, which shouldn't happen. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Code: https://hastebin.com/share/vigopemasu.csharp

I had an idea that it might be possible to implement circular motion, but I don't know how to do it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[storm patio]

i wonder if you could just not disable collisions and have it Just Work

[gentle shale]

Well...

[storm patio]

ah, i see. well, it doesn't go through the player anymore 😆

[hidden cypress]

YEES

FINALLY

[storm patio]

anyways yeah you could probably do something like, set the velocity perpendicular to the direction towards the player but going towards the holdpoint, instead of going directly to the holdpoint

might need extra logic to make it not go over the player

[gentle shale]

Do you have any ideas on how to implement this in code?) What parts of the documentation will I need?

[storm patio]

i imagine the code would be relatively simple/straightforward stuff

you'd just have to figure out how to model it mathematically

the code would be straightforward from the math

i realize that's not super helpful but i can't really think of it either, quite tired rn as well

[violet thunder]

@gentle shale Could use Vector3.Slerp or Quaternion.Slerp for spherical motion

[storm patio]

it's a physics object so i feel kinda iffy about that

[violet thunder]

Would still be using physics to move it

[boreal river]

Hey, guys! I can't understand why my last pixels of the brick tile are transparent

I have changed the sprite settings to no filter etc etc everything are fine

[vivid cedar]

show us the import settings

as well as the tilemap settings
Also are you using a pixel perfect camera?

[storm patio]

are you suggesting something other than setting the position with slerp? i think my tiredness is showing

[boreal river]

problem was with tile anchor btw on the X Axis I have changed the value to 0.6 and for one reason it fixed

[violet thunder]

Slerping a target position and moving towards that with forces

[pearl oyster]

I think their issue is that the movement is essentially one frame so there isn't enough time to move spherically using forces, except if you slow down the object so that it doesn't move instantly with the player. For one-frame movement you'd need interpolation in an arc

[gray frigate]

i wnoder if you could place down "targets" both over time (e.g. every frame) and over distance (e.g. every meter of world-space covered)

the object would move towards the oldest target that it hasn't reached yet

this sounds very error-prone, since you could miss a target and thus wind up going backwards to hit it

you'd want the targets to expire quickly

you'd trace out an arc for the object to follow, rather than just moving the object straight towards the intended position

[hidden cypress]

project is empty btw

heyy, why isn't the text on the screen updating even though the debug.log shows the number is increasing?

[cosmic patrol]

Do you update the ui? It's hard to help here because it can be everything without context

[stuck flower]

What's putting the text on screen

[worthy trail]

A textmeshpro object dragged into the object containing the script

[cosmic patrol]

Try to change TMP_Text to TextMeshProUGUI. Does it help?
I handle it like this

[stuck flower]

And when do you change the text

[worthy trail]

I have a popup that comes into the scene, when a button on the popup is tapped, the script that updates the text is invoked in the button script

What is scriptInstance2 set to

[worthy trail]

my bad😬

[worthy trail]

The script containing the score and its increase

[stuck flower]

Which object

You can't assign a script to that variable

you assign an object

[safe garden]

hey all wondered if anyone can help, having a collider issue. This is part of a moving object which I parent it to. When I apply a mesh collider for some reason it doesn't register it and I can walk right through the object. if I apply a box or capsule collider to it they work fine

if its a mesh collider and I make it convex it works, but I don't want convex as I want to be able to walk through the gap there

[worthy trail]

Ohh, I see. The popup prefab has a child containing the script, so I use that object to assign that variable. But since the popup isn't always in the scene, I am unable to drag a TextMeshPro asset into it, how do I fix that?

[stuck flower]

You will need to assign the reference to the object in the scene you want after spawning the prefab

[stuck flower]

If this object has a Rigidbody, it can't have a non-convex mesh collider

[worthy trail]

okay, lemme try that out

[meager quail]

Who can help me get my game on applab

[balmy kettle]

https://dontasktoask.com

i.e. ask specific questions if you need help with it

[meager quail]

What

[balmy kettle]

what part of that did you not understand

[meager quail]

Idk what to do

[remote needle]

ask the question

[balmy kettle]

is your question "how do i submit my app to be added to app lab"? if it is, then try starting with a google search. considering meta has an FAQ that specifically tells you what you need to do, it should be fairly easy to find

[meager quail]

Ok thanks

[gray dirge]

As digi said, dynamic objects can't have non-convex mesh colliders. It is just not possible. I would add that kinematic Rigidbodies are fine though if I remember correctly (often you want non-kinematic though). In this case you could very easily approximate this shape with handful of box colliders.

[stuck flower]

Is there an easy way to compare two exported profiler data exports other than just loading them, looking at them, and then loading another?

[outer forum]

Hlw, Can anyone help me with this. Its a brand new project with urp setup. Object shows Shadow/ghost when the camera moves. Thank you

[slow dirge]

What shadow/ghost?? I don't see anything like that. Are you referring g to the jittering perhaps?

[outer forum]

Shouldnt jitter. Does the same even with cinemachine

[sweet tartan]

does that show in an actual screen recording? it looks more like your monitor has some kind of ghosting issue to me

[gray dirge]

Definitely make a proper screen recording and watch it back frame by frame

If it doesn't appear in the recording, you automatically know it's beyond the control of unity. Different monitor settings can reduce the ghosting I have heard. Depends a lot of on what type of panel you have how much ghosting if any there will be

[craggy swan]

i've looked

it still doesnt work

[near wigeon]

skill issue. prob

[forest vault]

very helpful 😐

[balmy kettle]

you haven't said anything useful about what specifically you are struggling with

[forest vault]

well, i watched some youtube video on how to make a capsule move aroound with wasd and i cant move after setting up the script multiple tries

[balmy kettle]

then you did something wrong or you aren't paying attention 🤷‍♂️
without actual info, nobody can really suggest anything

[near wigeon]

that can be a dozen things.. how are we supposed to know if you don't tell us

[forest vault]

no i followed the video thats why i'm confused

[near wigeon]

if its working in the video, then you did not copy exactly

[balmy kettle]

or you're simply not paying attention to what the editor is telling you

[forest vault]

someone told me that they recently switched the default input system and the tutorial i watched was on an older version

[balmy kettle]

and are you getting an error related to that?

[balmy kettle]

there you go. actual useful information

lead with the useful information next time instead of weaponizing your incompetence until someone drags that info from you

you also have another type of error in there too, but like the input error, you need to read it to see what you need to do

[uncut parcel]

so I don't guess it's possible to make an enum that has both letters and numbers?

[latent meadow]

#💻┃code-beginner

[uncut parcel]

oh yeah this is non-programming my bad

[plain iron]

Can anyone think of some pros and cons for having 1 or 2 bases (Base destroyed = game over) for a gigantic map survival strat game?

Its straight forward in single player but in coop its like.. much more difficult

Whether there should even be 2 bases, if both need to be destroyed at same time to lose. Multi bases feels so jank but it also feels like the only realistic way to get use out of a gigantic map

[near wigeon]

what do you mean.. enums are numbers

[uncut parcel]

I mean alphanumeric enum values** **

as in like "Melee1" instead of "MeleeOne"

that'd be convenient

[near wigeon]

yes they just can't start with number

[uncut parcel]

ah that's what it was last time I bet

I tried it before but it was acting like it couldn't be represented that way. I'm betting it was because it started with a number

thanks for the input

[storm patio]

fyi this is just a thing with identifiers in general, not with enums specifically
for enums that you want to show in the inspector, you can also use InspectorName to use a different display string

[uncut parcel]

[thorny loom]

Good morning.

I'm trying to use Unity with GitHub and it looks like Unity projects can be synced with GitHub directly, without having to use the desktop version. But after getting a GitHub token/key and configuring the Unity Project to use it, the project and files don't appear on the GitHub webpage.

Am I mistaken and need to use the GitHub desktop app, or am I doing something else wrong?

[storm patio]

you don't need github desktop for any git operations, you just need a git client. this can be gh desktop, the git cli, ide integration, or some other desktop client. i'm not aware of unity having git integration built-in, and it definitely wouldn't sync automatically

what do you mean by configuring the unity project to use the github token?

[storm patio]

ah, that

you'll still need to make and push commits

[thorny loom]

Yeah, I just noticed this when I tried to sync the Unity project to GitHub.

Not sure what permissions to use for the Token though.

[storm patio]

well you didn't give it any perms so it can't do anything

you'd need read ("Content") and write perms, not sure of the exact name

[thorny loom]

Alright, thank you. I'll look into it

[storm patio]

ah wait it might be like content > read/write, i forget how it's structured

[thorny loom]

I think I got it.

I managed to get the Unity project to upload to GitHub, but when I use the Unity Editor is doesn't sync new changes, and the Version Control window has disappeared. Hmm.

[storm patio]

syncing is not automatic, you need to push/pull changes explicitly

[thorny loom]

From the Unity Hub, or the Unity Editor?

[storm patio]

(this is how version control is supposed to work)

[storm patio]

from wherever the client is, presumably in each editor

[molten trail]

Hello people!

[thorny loom]

Hello

[frigid glade]

Is Unity HTML5 deployment compatible with common browsers?

and can they be deployed into youtube playables?

[lapis gate]

no clue about the youtube thing but Unity's probably the best engine if you want to develop for web

[frigid glade]

It seems they are part functional in Edge Android

I applied for youtube playables with my game on itch.io

[lapis gate]

Well, best engine for web when it does come to 3D rendering. Godot's 2D is fine otherwise

[frigid glade]

Yes, it seems to cope with OpenGL for browsers but not for mobile

[pearl oyster]

Edge Android is pretty far removed from common browsers

[lapis gate]

You can always just build for mobile as well, but you can play wasms on mobile and stuff right?

[frigid glade]

tried Chrome too

@lapis gate wasms?

I'll explain, I have built for Web my game it's on itch.io

I applied for youtube playables access

[orchid pewter]

I just updated my GPU driver, and the issue persists. Can you think of a way to test whether it's my physical GPU or some other problem? It happens only when I'm using Android as the platform -- Windows works just fine.

[frigid glade]

I was leading up to asking if Unity HTML5 will work on youtube or already works as a playable

[lapis gate]

it's what it compiles down to, and basically you can rip it from your browser and run it into a webgl compatible browser or application

[frigid glade]

At the moment I haven't tried, but using the HTML5 export from Unity. What is the difference?

[lapis gate]

also Unity now supports WebGPU which if your phone can run vulkan or any more modern graphics API you can take advantage of that

but that also depends on the browser/application and if it supports that

[frigid glade]

YouTube will host games and other interactives soon

[lapis gate]

HTML5 is the webgl export unless I'm mistaken, well, wasm like I mentioned

[frigid glade]

You will be able to use the API for ingame transactions, browser storage

Otherwise the youtube player will play HTML5 and WebGL games

as you say

I just need advice on whether Unity fits with youtube playables, which is private access only

and there is practically little information about this

[lapis gate]

can't answer that, but most likely yes

HTML5 is a vague term when describing games but 99% of the time you'll be using OpenGLES 2/3 and it will most likely be webgl

[frigid glade]

I think so too. Mostly I wonder where my application went to and why YouTube is taking so damn long to give me access or reply

I wanted to get on this early, it'll be huge when people find out

[restive pollen]

Hi, I have implemented firebase messaging in my app.
When my app is closed & I send a notification, I can see in Logcat that the app is actually being launched (it doesn't show on screen though), even In Apps are initialized...
Can someone tell why this happens?

[copper gust]

not sure if thats a thing

[restive pollen]

It doesn't as far as I know...

[blazing lake]

oh bummer

[restive pollen]

You can click on an asset and its extension will be shown at the bottom of project window...

Why do you want to do that though? if it's for searching, you can search by type using t:

[blazing lake]

i like it for a better overview. Can happen I might name some things the same with a different file extension

[storm patio]

and the same media/asset type?

[restive pollen]

Let me try something, if it works.

[orchid pewter]

Can someone try to use the Android platform with some primitive 3D objects to see whether the objects flash and flicker like super-crazy disco mode in Unity 6.4 please? I've tried updating my GPU driver and using all rendering backends that I have. It doesn't happen on Windows mode.

[restive pollen]

I have Unity 6.3 atm, Sorry : (

[restive pollen]

I messed it up, will work on it in spare time. If you have time, you can modify how assets are drawn in Project tab. @blazing lake

[blazing lake]

Currently I mostly know it by the icon which works at least

[storm patio]

yeah unity generally uses icons/media type to distinguish them so unless you have assets of the same name and type then it should at least be unambiguous

[orchid pewter]

Does your Unity 6.3 work in Android at least? Maybe I'll use that version.

[cinder swallow]

Hello everyone, I’m new here and wanted to ask if anyone else is experiencing issues with the Meta Voice SDK Immersive Voice Commands from the Asset Store. I checked my app status on Wit.ai and it’s showing as green, so I’m assuming the problem might be on Unity’s side, or maybe the feature is no longer supported. I just wanted to confirm if I might be missing something.

[undone monolith]

I'm using Photon Pun 2 for my project. Just to clear, this is just an issue on Photon's end, not my end right?

[gray dirge]

Would also try updating unity. I cannot think of any way to test it for sure. At least you can run some GPU health check. There are probably some built-in tools in windows for that and a lot of tools available online. They won't confirm you don't have a problem but if you do, they might confirm that. I would also consider trying Vulkan outside unity and seeing whether similar bugs happen. Some GPU benchmark tools at least allow testing different graphics APIs so you could run them and see if similar problems occur. If not, it could be something wrong with Unitys Vulkan integration

[eager finch]

Hi Akrumov, CI-CD platforms basically require unity license for authentication.

[orchid pewter]

I have the latest version of Unity :(. I tried disabling Vulcan entirely, and the issue still persisted. I get shader errors when I switch platforms from Windows to Android, so it smells like a Unity bug to me. I'll try the GPU stress testing though.

I'd also recommend looking into CoPilot in vscode, it basically reads your mind and suggests things you were planning to do anyway. Massive time saver

[obtuse robin]

ah thanks im a beginner so this helps a lot and im just right now doing the tutorial of unity so thx for the stuff

[rancid lake]

Why does no one like copilot lol

[latent meadow]

Nothing wrong with utilizing AI, If you already know what you are doing. then it is a tool. many people use it as a crutch though

[copper gust]

doesn't save that much time and is prone to causing super small errors you'd normally catch when writing stuff out directly

[rancid lake]

It's basically like autocomplete in your browser URL

[stuck flower]

Because we have to keep fixing its mistakes from people who don't understand enough to know how much it just makes up

[rancid lake]

it's not for writing logic, just the suggestions are basically mind reading

[copper gust]

this is a nothing comment

just today vsc's intellicode wrote me a for loop with i starting at 1 instead of 0 which caused issues (i keep being lazy and forgetting to turn it off)

[latent meadow]

https://discord.com/channels/489222168727519232/1202574086115557446 would be the place to continue, if continuing

[rancid lake]

Meaning if I create a struct "SPlanData" it'll fill the variables with everything I was planning to anyway based on my previous code

or if I change some vars/function signatures, it'll auto suggest to change the rest of them

but you're right, depending on it if you don't know much could lead to issues

[obtuse robin]

guys im doing the programming essntials of the tutorial and i just mad e the player and like a colleticalbe buth its supposed to delete its self and i checked the code and it said it was working buth when my player touch the colletible it doesnt delete it self is it something with the compontes or is just like a error

you should show your code in #💻┃code-beginner

How did you "disable Vulkan"? I was assuming you changing to Android platform did the API change automatically

I remember seeing Vulkan mentioned in some of the warning messages you saw earlier. Do you still see "Vulkan" mentioned when it's not there?

Now with my Unity 6.3 install, I see no warning messages at all. Someone else said it works fine in their 6.3, so I tried that and see no change. 🙁

I checked https://status.unity.com/ and it doesn't seem to list a related incident

[latent meadow]

is analytics part of #1390346533127458889 unity gaming services? if so, best to ask there

but, it literally says, they are having an issue, they know about it, and are working on it..

i'd imagine trying again later will work

[sweet knoll]

Oh sorry if I posted in the wrong place, I took a look at the channels and didn't find one adequate, this on is under multiplayer so I skipped it but ugs would be the right place for it

[latent meadow]

no worries

[sweet knoll]

Yeah I would not have asked if their status page confirmed that they were having incidents there, but it's not the case.
No worries I'll just wait and see, thanks for your input

[dense topaz]

Hello, im making a game and im a bit stuck, can anyone help me create a modular character system

[latent meadow]

honestly, they could be in the middle of a server fire and there is a 98% chance status page reports all green 😅

[sweet knoll]

Haha plausible :p

[latent meadow]

that is not how things work.. if you have a specific question that can be answered, that would work. if you are looking for people to hire to teach you, you can try the forums

If you have a specific question you should ask it

[stark dagger]

Anyone who knows a little about unity? I just need someone to be able to get me a working bike. It can be bad. I dont mind. I just need a driveable bike to use in my game. Cuz other ones ive tried are either broken or just weird. Im. new to unity and just need someone for this 1 thing.

[latent meadow]

as stated above, that is not how it works.. you can find bikes on the asset store or other sites for free. you might even find bike controllers, who knows. this is a learing server, not a collab or hiring server.

[worldly cave]

i mean a working bike could mean plenty of things and it depends on a lot of stuff

[stuck flower]

You can find models on the asset store. As for the code, that's going to completely depend on what you actually want to happen.

[worldly cave]

it also depends on how your game already works

[stuck flower]

A "working bike" could be anything from "change model to character on bike, increase movespeed 2x, donezo" and "BeamNG-level of physics simulation on every individual strut of the bike's frame, controlled by a converted pelaton plugged into your computer through using a Roomba as a bluetooth middleman"

[stark dagger]

Wasd rideable. I know where i can get models. mainly a bike controller and its an empty 3d map with nothing on it.

Ive done nothing to the map.

[stuck flower]

Swap player model to bike, 2x move speed, donezo

[stark dagger]

I meant more like something you can ride on that actually needs physics.

Hello, I need help with lights, i have 2, one for rendering layer 1 and one for default and for some reason when i did that the shadows dissapeared, I dont know what screenshots even to put here for to help, thats how lost i am

[latent meadow]

sounds like a #1391720450752516147 question

is anybody here?

im having an issue

my app just cant open

im talking about the unity hub app

[crimson flicker]

try to close out the unity hub and open it as administrator

[fair fjord]

😭😭

[fair fjord]

Tried it

Didn't work

Removed the cache files

[crimson flicker]

alright, give me a sec and ill think about it

[fair fjord]

Didn't work

[fair fjord]

Okay

[crimson flicker]

have you tried opening the file location and starting that way?

[fair fjord]

Is there any other platform, where i can find the solution

[fair fjord]

Can you do that?

[crimson flicker]

yes

[fair fjord]

It still doesnt work

[crimson flicker]

right click it and run as admin

[fair fjord]

Nah

Its not wotking

[crimson flicker]

ok, open task manager and close it entirely

close everything involving unity

once you do that, reopen it, and try again

[fair fjord]

There is nothing

Involving unity

Its not even showing

😭😭

[charred fog]

@fair fjord Did you actually check the logs you were linked?

[fair fjord]

Yes?

Manually?

[charred fog]

Notepad has search feature

[fair fjord]

Ok

[balmy kettle]

and make sure you're looking at the right logs. if it is the hub that won't open then obviously you should be looking at the hub logs, not the editor logs like you screenshot above

[crimson flicker]

well first, how much RAM is on your laptop

pretty sure unity hub has issues with anything less than 4gb

[charred fog]

Don't derail, they are still looking for an actual reason. If that's the case logs will show.

[crimson flicker]

its an easy concept lol

I deleted them

Cuz chat gpt said so

[charred fog]

@fair fjord Stop with a spam and run the Hub again, it will generate new ones on fail.

[crimson flicker]

alternatively, you could just press Win + R and type %AppData% and hit enter

[fair fjord]

Ok ok

[crimson flicker]

best not to use AI to help you with these issues lol

[fair fjord]

Yeah

I'mma just uninstall and reinstall this

[crimson flicker]

that could work too

clearing app cache is always a good idea as well

[fair fjord]

Did that too my bro

[crimson flicker]

uninstalling seems to be the last resort then

[fair fjord]

Yeah blud

Thanks tho

[regal cobalt]

is FindAnyObjectByType performant-ish?

[storm patio]

everything is relative

[gray dirge]

so definitely ish

[regal cobalt]

related to, like, previous version

[violet thunder]

There's almost always a better way

[storm patio]

it's.. the same as the previous version

[violet thunder]

It potentially scales with your object count which is pretty bad (unless they changed something)

[regal cobalt]

yeah I was asking if they changed something

they should have changed something tbh..

[storm patio]

it goes through scene objects so already on the expensive side compared to more direct references, and gets more expensive with more objects in the scene, but it's probably better than physics stuff if every object has a collider and rigidbody

[storm patio]

you shouldve asked that then lol

[regal cobalt]

and you should avoid wrong answers lol

[storm patio]

there's no right answer to be had

[regal cobalt]

they did a whole new refactor, I can hardly believe it's still foreach (var obj in sceneObjects) { ...GetComponent<T>(); }

[storm patio]

was it that to begin with?

[violet thunder]

Then have the object register itself if it needs fast access

[regal cobalt]

would expect it to be more like foreach (var obj in allObjects[type]) { ... }

[storm patio]

what's the goal here (in asking) tbh

[copper gust]

the right answer is to avoid those kind of functions

they aren't just bad because of performance they are bad because they are generally avoidable

same as getcomponent

[violet thunder]

That would likely have a performance impact, since every time an object is destroyed or created it would need to update the bookkeeping/dictionaries

Not massive impact, but still avoidable

[regal cobalt]

seems the answer is "yes, performant-ish" 😛

https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/Object.FindAnyObjectByType.html
https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.3/Documentation/ScriptReference/Object.FindFirstObjectByType.html

FindFirstObjectByType has a disclaimer about performance, while FindAnyObjectByType doesn't

Note: This function is very resource intensive. It's best practice to not use this function every frame and instead, in most cases, use the singleton pattern. Alternatively if you only need any instance of a matching object rather than the first one you can use the faster Object.FindAnyObjectByType

[violet thunder]

A cost that everyone would have to pay even though they dont use Find methods

[gray dirge]

And how exactly would allObject[type] work. Unity would have to keep track of that structure whatever that is. Every time you create or remove something, the structure would have to change adding more overhead. It would be bad enough if every object would have one "type" in them but objects can have a lot of components and inheritance would also have to be taken into account. I don't see why Unity would want to take the performance hit that would cause when everyone can choose not to use the methods to begin with.

[regal cobalt]

yeah, I think they do that

[violet thunder]

Do what🤔

[regal cobalt]

add the objects to an internal list on instantiation

[violet thunder]

They have to be stored somewhere of course, but not in a dictionary necessarily

[regal cobalt]

that's likely how they process Update and other callbacks as well

[gray dirge]

Of course they do a lot of internal bookkeeping for many systems, anything extra for something that is not necessarily needed is just unnecessary

[storm patio]

that doesn't need to separate types. this does

it's still O(n) if you assume that structure

both the FindObjectByType ones would be O(n) with this structure, FindAny would be faster because it could early exit

notably, "faster" does not mean "fast"

again, perf is relative

[gray dirge]

anything is performant-ish with modern computers. If you can get the results within business day, you may consider it performant

[silver cosmos]

Does this look like a dwarf to anyone else? Completely lost here

[crimson flicker]

looks like a caveman to me

[silver cosmos]

And they kinda look like dwarves, no? Idk it just doesn't look right

[crimson flicker]

I mean, its however you want it to look. once you add hair and a body to it, it will look like a dwarf im sure

[gray dirge]

One bit similar case was when unity chose to optimize static colliders by making them slower for everyone. Moving static colliders used to be very bad for performance but people kept moving them anyways so unity chose to treat everything dynamic when it comes to the physics engine. Of course they must have profiled it and found the change to not be that bad for performance since they did that.

What makes this case different however is that Find methods are widely known to be bad for performance and people know to use them on their own discretion. I can see how having to add a Rigidbody to anything that will ever move can be counter-intuitive. With Find methods there's just no reason to make everyone take the performance hit (including those not using the Find methods) when much better ways to reference things exist and people generally know of those quite well. I'm sure they would have changed it long ago if they already kept some data structure of all objects by type. It would make a ton of sense to only keep track of what you necessarily need. Game engines are a lot about optimization and making things slower for everyone to benefit some is not the way Unity have chosen in this case.

[remote current]

object pooling is so cooool

[tawny quail]

Me when I wake up from an accidental 2 hour nap

[storm sierra]

I am extremely tempted to use LLM ai for behavior in combat against players. Does anyone know if this is possible?

[vivid cedar]

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.ml-agents@4.0/manual/index.html

Not "LLM" per se - you're not just hooking ChatGPT up to your game, but ai created through machine learning

[storm sierra]

How costly in performance is this, can I have thousands of actors all at once?

[gray dirge]

How would you get thousands of actors with LLM? Even one might be tough ask for realtime combat

[storm sierra]

It is possible if you use a similiar mindset to dots coding, with multiple ai concurrent code. Just a bit more complex since this is a llm

My biggest fear tbh is players would avoid my game since it has AI, despite me pouring in months to use it purely for better combat or ai behavior

[vivid cedar]

Probably not

[gray dirge]

Do you have any evidence of this working? I have heard a single LLM model take tens if not hundreds of gigs of RAM, preferably VRAM to operate. I'm having hard time trying to picture how that would work on any consumer PC let alone make it run 1000 LLM models at once

[copper gust]

Why would it be better

[gray dirge]

I'm sure there are relatively cheap LLMs too but a small machine learning model made specifically for the task will likely be magnitudes faster than a general purpose LLM. I would only consider a language model for something that, surprising or not, involves human language. Something like Infinite Craft would absolutely require a language model of some sort but for just controlling an agent, I would choose ML agents 100% of the times (if not some human written code isn't good enough)

[storm sierra]

I am not going to use a realitively expensive LLM, also the LLM your mentioning are a bit too much. You do realize there is LLM models online you can download that are able to do basic ideas in cell phones, they are essentially a smart dictionary. I am not needing a genius ai but something that is able to parse through a list of combat moves, or speech text and pick one based off factors that are harder to control.

[storm sierra]

Unpredictable Ai

[copper gust]

Sounds worse

The predictability tends to be the point, not an unsolved problem

[storm sierra]

Your opinion, not mine

[gray dirge]

What do we think the first L in LLM stands for 😅. I still think it will be really hard to find a balance between performance and quality. It needs to be really cheap in order to run thousands of agents. If it only needs to fire the model every now and then for each of the agents, I could maybe see that happen

[storm sierra]

Don't worry about me, I tend to make insane plans then spend months on making them reality. When I get it working I might show it here

[worldly cave]

theres games that have really good complex AI combat systems without using LLMs

hell half life 2 had an insanely detailed AI system back in 2004 lol

[gray dirge]

I'm very impressed if you manage that. If you are worried how people might think of your game, I wouldn't worry about that. Everything is AI according to the Wikipedia definition. You don't have to advertise it's based on LLMs if you don't want to. What I'm trying to say is just that I'm very doubtful it is the best tool for the job, sounds to be more trouble than it is worth

[outer forum]

here. if you look closer even the pixel at the edge of the tree in my other project does the same. it create some kind of shadow

[violet thunder]

Sounds like @storm sierra is aware that it's an ambitious idea. IMO it's great to see people trying to innovate/experiment with new techniques in game AI.

[gray dirge]

I'm literally seeing no kind of shadow or ghosting in any paused image I could stop at

[outer forum]

that weird. my monitor shouldnt be the issue here

[violet thunder]

Have you tested with another monitor or your phone perhaps?

It's really not visible in the screen recording

[gray dirge]

Did you try pausing the video? There's zero ghosting outside presumed compression artefacts (which are barely noticeable)

[outer forum]

Yeah right i should try playing on my phone :/

yeah i think something wrong with my monitor >~<

[gray dirge]

More than likely given we don't see the same. It's not like it's necessarily broken in any way, especially older monitor panel types used to leave those ghosting trails behind. If you google your monitor make and model with "ghosting", you might find some settings which you could try changing to minimize that

[sonic ginkgo]

Hey guys I wanted to know, how do you learn Unity C#. like do you have to know every line of code and if not then how do you customize code and add your own things

[outer forum]

Yeah the refresh rate was set to 60. just changed that to 180 now its all good :V.

[plain dagger]

C# is its own programming language. Unity is an engine with many features and APIs that you interact with via c#

[sonic ginkgo]

no no I know but do you have to knnow what every line of code does? and if so hwo would you go about learning???

I have learned a previous language before but now coming back its way more harder than I anticipated

[gray dirge]

What do you refer to by "every line of code"? The publicly available C# API?

[sonic ginkgo]

yes!

[plain dagger]

You should have a base level understanding of c# yea and how things work but not of Unity and other libraries!

With the base knowledge you know what to research

[outer forum]

neh you just gotta know bunch of keywords and language grammar and then practice all the time. its all about logic at the end of the day

[sonic ginkgo]

okayyy so for someone who created a 200+ lines of code they just reasearched a LOT and implimented more and more???

[plain dagger]

You learn as you try

If you understand what public float health = 200f; does then thats a good start

[sonic ginkgo]

okayyy

its just I didn't know it was that normal for games since I always feel like I am cheating myself when I have to research

[gray dirge]

If you don't mind sharing the other language, it could help us identify some pain points in the learning process. Unity has a very wide API which most you won't need but even the basics get some time to get used to. Once you do, your ability to write code can improve really quickly

[remote needle]

learning isnt cheating its just how things are done

[plain dagger]

I look stuff up every day

[gray dirge]

All the time, most of the time stuff that I "should" know but forgot

[sonic ginkgo]

ahhh okayyy I guess thats the misconception about writing code huh, you dont have to know eveery single word or I guess base it off your mind 24/7

[sonic ginkgo]

I learned python a LONG time ago but that wasn't for games it was for like creating automated tasks for peoples computers and files. some web scraping, etc I did a lot with python just I tried learning C# the same way but when coding for games I see its very different

[gaunt grail]

can i disable render graph in unity 6000.4

[plain dagger]

But why?

Its the way forward

[gaunt grail]

its ok just need it off

[plain dagger]

C# and other "strongly typed languages" are a step up from something like python but once you get it then it should make sense

[sonic ginkgo]

got youu okayy!!

can someone give me the proper unity documentation so I can see the code meanings and how to use them

I find bits and pieces

[plain dagger]

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/

the api documentation

[sonic ginkgo]

OHHHH I WAS IN THE RIGHT AREA

thank youU!

[plain dagger]

c# syntax would be found elsewhere

e.g. "c# list"

[gray dirge]

Yeah it shouldn't be too bad of a jump in terms of a language (personally I jumped from Scratch directly to Unity). Most of the stuff we do in Unity is not specific to C# but Unity specific API. There is a lot of it but again you don't need that much to get started. The programmatic problem solving skills transfer very well between languages and environments. Not looking up stuff is not the goal, the goal is to get familiar with the API and get faster at finding the stuff you need. If you already remember a Class a certain method lies in, it becomes very trivial to find the documentation for it and to learn how it worked

[sonic ginkgo]

I am very beginner and I am sorry for asking but why won't this code work? I know its very dumb lol

Cursor.lockstate = CursorLockMode.Locked;

[sonic ginkgo]

okayy, thank you so muchhh!!!!!

[gaunt grail]

so does anyone know where i can disable the render graph

[gray dirge]

lockState, not lockstate. If your IDE is not marking that part, make sure to configure it correctly (it should show a red squiggly under it)

[plain dagger]

Does it not compile or does it just not function as you desire? These are not the same

Ah yes its case sensitive

yOu hAVe tO bE caREFul

[plain dagger]

https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.0/Documentation/Manual/urp/compatibility-mode.html

[gaunt grail]

its not there

[sonic ginkgo]

ohhhh THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN LOL, jeez I forget how sensitive code is, welp I have a long way to go!!!

[plain dagger]

I dont think it can be disabled. I presume you either want to use some really old asset OR want to mod which we dont discuss here.

[gaunt grail]

i just wanna use old code

[sonic ginkgo]

I mean I am not getting an error message although it didn't work so I gotta problem find

[gaunt grail]

i dont feel like updating it, but thanks anyways

how would I go about fixing that??

[gray dirge]

Follow the instructions in the link the bot provided. Choose the one for the IDE you are using. Most use Visual Studio

[sonic ginkgo]

I don't think its working but I am not sure, it doesn't auto correct nor underline mistakes. I have installed the unity library

If you followed the instructions close vs code and re open the file from the unity editor instead (double click the script asset in editor)

[sonic ginkgo]

ohhhhhh

[plain dagger]

This opens the vs code workspace correctly

[sonic ginkgo]

okayy sorry my bad

should I uninstall it??

[plain dagger]

erm no i said nothing like that

just close the current session and do as I said to have the file be opened correctly

vs code needs special information to do helpy things

[sonic ginkgo]

haha okay my baddd

[stark agate]

Also probably doesn’t matter but please practice proper indentation lol

[sonic ginkgo]

fixed thank you so muchhh!!

[gray dirge]

Btw. just so you know, "Mouse X/Y" should not be multiplied by deltaTime. Often times you should multiple by deltaTime, but mouse inputs are an exception since they are already framerate independent. GetAxis("Mouse X") essentially gives you how much the mouse has moved horizontally since the last frame. If the framerate is higher, it will automatically give smaller mouse input for same mouse speed. Multiplying by deltaTime there does to opposite of what is intended by it, it makes your sensitivity appear different on different framerates.

A tutorial you followed might have told you to do so but they were wrong. Note again that this only applies to mouse input. Horizontal/Vertical etc. axes should still be multiplied by deltaTime most of the times

[sonic ginkgo]

okayy yeah I was following backeys movement

[gray dirge]

Yeah, that's one of the incorrect tutorials in that sense

[hasty nebula]

Two quick questions, I'm learning ECS...

1. What's the idiomatic approach to reading from the Input System? Is it instantiating an instance of Action set and using a SystemBase to hold a reference? That's what I've seen online, but LLM has been saying to handle this in Monobehavior and talk to my simulation via ECS via world.EntityManager... which feels off. Honestly, both ways feel off... ECS is supposed to be for simulation code, handling input in ECS feels strange too.

2. Next is the Camera... Is this similar, like, you would manage this via a Managed System and keep a long-term reference to your Camera?

didnt know getting good car physics is so hard

My bad wrong server

[abstract ibex]

how much memory do dozens of big illustration of fairly high quality occupy ? (not rendered, just referenced)

[slow dirge]

If they're references, they're as good as rendered as unity would load them into vram on load. Then it depends on the compression algorithm and obviously resolution and the amount of channels(+-alpha). Use the memory profiler to check the exact numbers.

[still quiver]

would it be illegal for me to upload paid asset scripts here because im having problems with it

[slow dirge]

Probably, yes. You could maybe ask a question about a short snippet, but I'm not sure if that's fine legally as well.

[abstract ibex]

i see, guess i cant be lazy on this one lol

[gray dirge]

Remove the deltaTime multiplications from the mouse axis lines and adjust your sensitivity accordingly

[sacred moon]

Is anybody using Linux

[pearl oyster]

Yes, millions of people all around the world

[still quiver]

everything is pink and i converted pipelines any possible solutions? all of the pink items are from the same asset/model pack and they all have errors by the name of "The referenced script on this Behaviour (Game Object '[object name]') is missing!"

Hi everyone! I’m looking for Unity developers to beta-test a Modular UI Plugin I’ve developed for my degree's final project. The core philosophy of the tool is to decouple UI integration from the main programming pipeline—allowing developers to set up and manage everything directly from the Inspector with minimal coding.

The current build includes a setup wizard, global themes, standard menus (main, options, credits), a HUD, and a node-based dialogue system. If anyone has some time to import the package into a test scene or an existing project, test the editor workflow, and share their feedback, please DM me! Your technical opinion would be incredibly valuable to validate the project.

[plain dagger]

Share elsewhere such as #1179447338188673034 but how is extra abstraction meant to make things better?

[latent meadow]

also, must be a free tool to post there. if not, you can make a #1180170818983051344 and ask for testers there, or use the forums

[pearl oyster]

decouple UI integration from the main programming pipeline
yeah I was just going to say that this sounds like a defect rather than an improvement

[plain dagger]

I dislike very general ui decoupling because it makes seeing what anything does horrible
More targeted specific systems for making UI flexible is better

[high mulch]

in my plugin the objective is that, make ui more flexible and without programming, to make able to the designers configure it without knowledge about programming

[latent meadow]

have you compared it to #🧰┃ui-toolkit

[high mulch]

as you can se here, you can make a hole dialogue system in a game with rewards, line jumps only editing a scriptable object

[latent meadow]

bottom line, do what you do, but as mentioned, this is not the place to ask for testers

[high mulch]

ok, so where can I ask for testers? in #1180170818983051344 ?

[latent meadow]

you Make a dev log, show what you have been working on, and ask for people to test it. as mentioned, the forums are also another place. you can follow the bot link below as it is the same forum

[median roost]

is there a way for the player to go through enemy collider without excluding it?

when i exlude it my physics checks dont work

[storm patio]

what physics check do you want to still work?

[median roost]

i do one for the punching mechanic

it checks if the player is in that bottom yellow circle

applies damage if yes

[storm patio]

seems like you'd want hitboxes and hurtboxes to be separate layers?

(also the config there would be in physics 2d collision matrix settings rather than per rigidbody, so you can have consistent handling)

wait the yellow circle isn't a collider is it

[verbal thunder]

Hey guys, I'm trying to install OpenUSD package folowing this link:https://discussions.unity.com/t/new-openusd-packages-now-available/935041 and it always gives me errors on Unity 6.4, is this still supported?

[latent meadow]

i would not expect much like this to work in 6.4. it is functionally a beta. even 6.3 has changed 'under the hood' significantly.
entirely untested search result:
USD Importer: com.unity.importer.usd — For bringing USD files into the Unity Editor.
USD Exporter: com.unity.exporter.usd — For exporting Unity scenes or assets to USD.
USD Core: com.unity.usd.core — Provides C# bindings for the USD API (installed automatically with the importer or exporter).

some people suggest nvidia omniverse. can't say i do.

@verbal thunder

[verbal thunder]

thanks, I will try it on earlier versions, 6.0lts

[latent meadow]

not a bad plan. the above listed might work with higher versions. i would stay with 6.0 though, for now

[median roost]

turns out i just had it coded wrong lol

[latent meadow]

#1391720450752516147

[storm patio]

Out(1) -> A(4) seems suspect lol

[stuck flower]

That's kind of expected for shader graphs though

[storm patio]

is it? mb then

[stuck flower]

It basically just turns the result into an RGBA value of all that number

For things like "Divide all colors in this image in half" you'd bring in a float of 0.5, which gets cast into (0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5) and multiplied with the pixel color

[latent meadow]

that is why i always leave the previews up. the logic does not always make immediate sense to me

[stuck flower]

Sometimes the previews can be janky though

[latent meadow]

indeed

[copper gust]

sidenote but godot is getting hlsl previews which is cool

[fallow sonnet]

Does anyone know how to make a gtag fan game, not a copy. I'm new to ts

[copper gust]

not here, sorry

[stuck flower]

!learn but also consider doing something actually original, please

modding type stuff can be a cool way to get into learning though, not the worst idea

[stuck flower]

More people have come here saying they're making a gtag fangame than actually play gorilla tag

[fallow sonnet]

Wdym?

[latent meadow]

there are about 8 millions kids 'making' gtag fan games. they have discords and everything. perhaps join up

[storm patio]

what part of that needs clarification

[stuck flower]

Let's put it this way, if ever single person living in the entire state of Wyoming made a gtag fangame, it would be about half as many people as have come to this server saying that exact thing

[latent meadow]

it really is a phenomenon

[fallow sonnet]

So ur saying I shouldn't make a fan game??

[stuck flower]

There are more "aspiring gtag fangame developers" than there are people playing gorilla tag at all

somehow

[copper gust]

do what you want, it's chill 😄

[stuck flower]

Yes. Please do something original that you can actually be proud of

I don't know why everyone tries to make a gtag fangame, I'm guessing because a youtuber did it

So instead, take that creative drive and do something yourself

[latent meadow]

i think as long as it gets the kids interested and learning programming and computers and such, it is all good

[fallow sonnet]

I'm proud of making a fan game, and not to be rude but u can't tell me what I can and can't develop. It's my choice at the end of the day.

[stuck flower]

Fine then, prove me wrong

[copper gust]

game development thrives off that kind of stuff

[stuck flower]

Go hit up the learn link I sent

and make something worth playing purely out of spite

[latent meadow]

the Essentials Pathway is the place to start on the linked site

[fallow sonnet]

I have a youtuber with over 110k who are excited for the game to release.

[storm patio]

excited for.. someone with no experience, to make a game... right.

[fallow sonnet]

So people DO wanna play the game, he WILL be making videos for the game

[latent meadow]

Excited for... the concept of "What if gorilla tag but again"

[copper gust]

(thats how games tend to work yeah)

[stuck flower]

A youtuber saying "yeah man sounds cool" is just politeness

[fallow sonnet]

I still dunno why ur making it such a problem the fact I'm pushing myself to make a game.

[fallow sonnet]

He didn't js say "sounds cool"

[storm patio]

we don't need to discuss this further

[stuck flower]

And the cute waitress really does think you're pretty and isn't just trying to get a tip

[fallow sonnet]

Me and him are great friends so idk what the big deal is

I'm trynna make a game, I'm proud of my decision, u cant tell me what I can and can't make, so end of.

[storm patio]

are you just gonna defend your stance or are you gonna go learn and maybe make something

[stuck flower]

Arguing on the internet about why your remake of a game that already exists is special isn't game development

You're not gonna make a game by insisting your idea is special, you're gonna make one by hitting the books and trying.

[copper gust]

this is so much uneeded energy

its a person wanting to make a lil thing

[fallow sonnet]

I'm going to but I have to keep on saying over and over again, it's my choice what i make.

[storm patio]

you don't have to, actually

you can just.. go

[stuck flower]

Why though. I'm just some guy on a discord

[fallow sonnet]

Then why u keep talking, it's how a conversation typically works

[stuck flower]

I'm not an investor

My opinion doesn't matter

[fallow sonnet]

Then why u telling me what I can and can't do if ur js a guy on discord

[storm patio]

why do you? conversations can be ended by either party

this discussion is not useful for anyone

[fallow sonnet]

And can keep going until one ends it

[stuck flower]

I'm not. I'm telling you what you should and should not do. I'm not a cop

[storm patio]

so are you just going to perpetually argue instead of going to do something productive?

[fallow sonnet]

What I js said btw.

[copper gust]

both people should stop

[stuck flower]

"Should" and "can" are different words

[storm patio]

this is a pointless discussion that does not fit here

[latent meadow]

digi please stop baiting the kid. Pluh, please stop taking the bait.
when i was younger, there was a saying '

[fallow sonnet]

Ur telling me I shouldn't develop a game. U started the argument bcuz I asked if anyone knows how to and ur telling me I shouldn't push myself to making a game.

[latent meadow]

be the bigger man and walk away'

[storm patio]

both of you have made your "points" and are now just talking past each other

[stuck flower]

I'm saying you should make something that you can actually be proud of. I'm telling you that you should do something original and unique

[copper gust]

which is a shitty thing to say

say it less

[storm patio]

alright fck this

[fallow sonnet]

I am proud of making my game, I already told u that.

[stuck flower]

I also said you should just go hit up the learn link instead of arguing

[storm patio]

<@&502884371011731486> weird extended argument about honor or something (nonproductive argument, does not need to be had)

[fallow sonnet]

And all I did was ask if anyone knows how to make a fan game

[stuck flower]

Yes, and I answered it.

That was the first thing I did

[potent geyser]

Making a fan game is no different from making a normal game, do you have a specific question?

[fallow sonnet]

And u said I shouldn't make it because it's (unoriginal)

[copper gust]

ehhh kinda not really in the context of gtag stuff

they gotta go on other discord and places for that talk

[storm patio]

arguably a fangame has premade lore/story (not relevant to this discussion though)

[stuck flower]

Yes. After sending you the link

[fallow sonnet]

Telling me what I should and shouldn't do.

Trynna take control of me

[potent geyser]

#💻┃unity-talk message

[stuck flower]

Learning how to make something worth while is as much effort as making something that will get drowned in a sea of mediocrity, so why not do something worth while

[storm patio]

anyways i pinged because this is just going in circles, neither side is actually listening

[copper gust]

you gotta take a walk or something man

[latent meadow]

Pluh, seriously, get over it. you have already said what they said does not matter, yet it is controlling you. this is a dev server, not a parenting server. please let it go, and hit the learning site if you are ready to make your fan game

[storm patio]

(personally i think just shutting the argument down would be the most productive option for everyone involved)

[fallow sonnet]

If I make it and I'm proud, that's all I need. I don't need u telling me I shouldn't make a game.

[stuck flower]

Every day it's dozens of "please make my gtag fangame for me no i will not look up documentation or debug anything" and I'm tired of it

[copper gust]

then leave

[storm patio]

then stop listening to them saying that

[stuck flower]

Then go fuckin make it

[potent geyser]

Do you have an actual question? I've asked 3 times.

[fallow sonnet]

Now u let me make it. Geez

[potent geyser]

Everyone else can stop feeding this please, take a breath.

[stuck flower]

I wasn't aware you needed my permission specifically

[fallow sonnet]

All I did today is ask if anyone knows how to make a fan game, and he's telling me I shouldn't make one.

[storm patio]

goddamn most childish thread of arguments ive seen

both of you need to learn to use the block button

[fallow sonnet]

What's the point

[potent geyser]

There is no difference in making a fan game vs. a normal game, it's a game. If you mean how to mod an existing game, or use assets from an existing game, that's not something we allow here. You have to go to their community.

[storm patio]

to not receive someone's input if you think their input is not useful

[fallow sonnet]

I'm not talking about modding.

[stuck flower]

And if you want to learn how to make a game, use the link I sent as my first message

[copper gust]

Gtag fangame type stuff is modding

[potent geyser]

What specifically are you asking?

[fallow sonnet]

"How to make a fan game not a copy"

[storm patio]

that's not very specific

[fallow sonnet]

Kinda self explanatory

[potent geyser]

Okay, so making a fan game and not a copy is just like making any other game, what specifically is the issue?

[storm patio]

doesn't mean it's specific.

[stuck flower]

To which the answer is what I sent.

[storm patio]

that's a general question, and it will yield a general answer - check the learning sites (as has already been answered)

[fallow sonnet]

THATS WHAT IM TRYNNA FIND OUT, but he's telling me I shouldn't make it bcuz I should do what I'm proud of. I am proud of it, it's My choice not his.

[storm patio]

THATS WHAT IM TRYNNA FIND OUT,
dude you were already answered

[stuck flower]

You've been given the answer

[latent meadow]

reminder you have to be 13 to use discord

[storm patio]

just ignore the insults if they're getting to you
-# ah that's kinda self-contradictory isn't it.

[potent geyser]

I don't care about this drama. I'm telling you there is no difference. If you're hoping to learn Unity in order to make your fan game, there are resources for sure.

Some of which are have been linked already.

[stuck flower]

Aspiring Gtag Fangame Developer 🤝 Not being able to read

[storm patio]

can you stop

you're not helping

[stuck flower]

Every day it's the same thing

[storm patio]

then leave

the convo, the channel, social media as a whole

[stuck flower]

The Gorilla Tag server doesn't want to deal with this so they send them here

[storm patio]

take breaks

[silent mica]

You are making it different in a pretty negative way

[fallow sonnet]

What's the big deal? If we are pushing ourselves to make a game, that's a good thing. Ur telling us what we shouldn't do.

[storm patio]

and your idea to solve that is to aggresively put them down?

not inflammatory at all 👏

[potent geyser]

I'm going to start deleting messages if they're not actively contributing to this conversation so we can get through it all.

If we start responding and continuing it, I'm handing out mutes

[stuck flower]

So make it. Be the one that actually finishes it instead of abandoning it in a week

[potent geyser]

I don't have time to babysit people right now

[fallow sonnet]

Loads of people actually keep updating it btw

[storm patio]

ok then join that group

yall this argument is a waste of time

[potent geyser]

Lastly, @fallow sonnet you have access to Learn. Use that, follow the tutorials and start making your fan game once you have a handle on the software.

[storm patio]

just leave the convo and go do some useful stuff

@fallow sonnet you've been given resources. any further argument won't be of any benefit to you, so i suggest you stop wasting your time with this argument.

[fallow sonnet]

I get that but bcuz this guy is telling me what I can and can't do then I have to wait until the argument ends then i can do it

[latent meadow]

Pluh, you are in a loop. muting you for a while

[storm patio]

I have to wait until the argument ends
you can end it by not responding

i just renamed a SO script n i had 50+ datas n its gone is there any way to retrive it?

[stuck flower]

Did you rename the file in the explorer, or inside unity? If you renamed it in the file explorer you also need to rename the .meta file

[sharp geyser]

I am using vstudio i renamed it through it n all my datas shows this

[stuck flower]

So yes, you need to go rename the .meta file

[sharp geyser]

the originatl name was BuffData n i renamed it to BuffDataSO do ineed to add a space like Buff Data SO.meta

[stuck flower]

You will need to take whatevertheoldnamewas.meta to whateverthecurrentnameis.meta

You probably already have a whateverthecurrentnameis.meta because it was generated when this was imported, so you'll need to replace that

[sharp geyser]

oh my bad it was the folder meta data i checked the script folder it already like this

[stuck flower]

So, if the meta file was moved as well, you should be able to just reassign that script to the SO and it should repopulate. Assuming you don't have any other compile errors that would also prevent reloading

[sharp geyser]

i tried that but the values are gone

and no errors

so no way to recover it

[stuck flower]

That seems like there's still a meta file that didn't copy over. Is this screenshot the entire folder? Did you rename it in place, or move the file? There should still be a .meta file with the old name that has the information in it

I'm not sure if VS will rename the meta file with it. In general, you should handle renaming and moving files in unity, so it can make sure to update everything's references all at once

[sharp geyser]

i didnt move any file what i did was i tried renaming the SO scriptn that was it i also checked the script meta file if its same n it was

[sharp geyser]

does that means this dosent happens when renaming a Scriptable script usually

[stuck flower]

If you rename it in Unity, it would work fine. If you rename it elsewhere, some of those pathways can get lost

If the old meta file isn't around, then it might have been overwritten? You might need to remake this one manually

[storm patio]

do you have version control?

[sharp geyser]

if i rename in unity does that also change it if i have any reference of this with other scripts

[storm patio]

if you rename in unity it'd only be renaming the files
serialized references to objects of the type would be kept, because the meta file would be renamed as well (and that's where the metadata about the id is kept)
you could then rename symbol (not file) in an ide to update all code references for the type

[sharp geyser]

no i have a saved txt file that has this datas but going through it again for 50+ stuffs gonna make me go crazy xD

[storm patio]

take this as a lesson to use version control then, version control could restore the meta file that went missing if you had it set up and committed

[sharp geyser]

true but cant unity give a fix update for this issue

[storm patio]

well, that's what version control is for

[latent meadow]

or even do what i do, everytime you make the slightest change, incremental backup! my 300MB project occupies 10TB, but hey, whatcha gonna do (since sarcasm is difficult to detect in text, let me clarify. this is just me joking around.)

[dusky forum]

It's a user error

[sharp geyser]

yeah it is but i never got a warning or knew about this

[storm patio]

terrifying that without context i could see someone doing this for real

"why does unity take up so much storage 😭"

[dusky forum]

An application cannot moderate actions done outside of itself. VSCode and Unity aren't the same application

[copper gust]

This would be a pretty tame and painless lesson on version control all things considered

People lose years of work before learning they need it, don’t be the same 😄

[sharp geyser]

damn i just tried renaming it back to old name n now its recovered now how do i safely rename it without messing it up

[stuck flower]

It never warned you because it literally can't. If unity knew that you were renaming it in another program it would just not have the problem. That's just not something that programs can really do.

[stuck flower]

Rename it in unity

[latent meadow]

before you go to rename it again, do the source control

[stuck flower]

Also that

[sharp geyser]

aright first push it then rename got it

[hushed hamlet]

Plus remember renaming a script generally also needs renaming of the class.

[silent mica]

VS does try to handle this, but it seems pretty fragile now that I'm playing with it

[smoky steeple]

Hello guys 🤗

[silent mica]

Poorly timed asset refresh (like switching back to Unity too quickly) seems like an easy way to break it.

[smoky steeple]

Sir are you unity developer

[storm patio]

do you need help or are you looking to hire

This is a unity game development server so very likely these are developers who are using unity

You should probably explain what you've tried and where exactly are you stuck. Providing as much necessary data as possible.

[gray frigate]

unity will log a warning if it notices a .meta file with no corresponding source asset

it won't try to resolve the problem, though (it could try to do that for simple file moves, i guess)

[turbid vapor]

Has anyone used MicroSplat - URP for Unity 6.3?

My terrain is black. I was using the regular MicroSplat (free), then switched to URP and imported the "MicroSplat - URP for Unity 6.3" asset.

[silent mica]

I would ask on their discord server

[gray frigate]

you may need to change the shader that the terrain material is using

although I'd expect an error shader in that case

(but Terrain is also...frightening, so who knows)

[sharp geyser]

Guys having the same issue renamed it in editor first than renamed it in IDE but still my SOs broke

[storm patio]

did you rename the file or symbol in IDE

[sharp geyser]

i have source control now though but i want this file renamed n not break the SO files

[storm patio]

so you also renamed the file

[violet thunder]

When will we get [FormerlySerializedAs] but for types 😩

[sharp geyser]

yes it was ticked was that causing it again? lemme try again without selecting it

nope still breaks it

[violet thunder]

Wait is that what MovedFromAttribute is for
E: Ah probably only useful for [SerializeReference]

[sharp geyser]

it wasnt ticked before it said file name not matched then it shows ticked after i rename it

[silent mica]

Are you sure you didn't typo the name?

[peak mountain]

why am I getting this every time I open my project?

it was fine until this morning

[sharp geyser]

200%

[violet thunder]

So are you trying to rename a SO type in the IDE, while migrating existing assets to use that type?

[latent meadow]

delete the Library and try again, is my guess

[peak mountain]

ive never had any issues doing it I just go rename the file in the editor then go rename the class in IDE and save it and its fine

[silent mica]

Pretty sure I usually just rename in IDE 😄

[peak mountain]

ngl tho if I was getting pushback from renaming a class I just wouldnt rename it

[sharp geyser]

m trying to rename a SO script name but the assets i produced using that script breaks

[peak mountain]

close unity delete library files, then rename it in the ide and in windows explorer then relaunch unity

[violet thunder]

Renaming the class type name or the filename?

[raven tiger]

Same

Since 5 minutes ago

[peak mountain]

ok i guess something going on with unity cloud or something then

[raven tiger]

Seems like it, yeah

[sharp geyser]

class name like public class BuffData to BuffDataSO

[peak mountain]

this will fix your problem @sharp geyser

[sharp geyser]

how do i find the libary files to delete

[peak mountain]

its a folder in your project directory

google which ones to delete

@sharp geyser delete those

its going to force an entire re import of all of your assets

its going to take a while

[sharp geyser]

damn is it safe though

[peak mountain]

yes

[silent mica]

I assume you managed to revert your assets back to a good state

[sharp geyser]

yes

but after renaming it properly the assets breaks

[raven tiger]

@peak mountain For some reason I add to reset my server location on the UVC website and it seems to fixed the issue

[sharp geyser]

yes ill keep that as a last method

[peak mountain]

i mean you have no other options atp. If your renaming the assets properly and it breaks it then this is the solution. The only other solution is dont rename the file

[silent mica]

I would just restart both Unity and VS and then try renaming the type in VS with file rename enabled again

Just make sure to let VS do its thing before switching back to Unity

[sharp geyser]

should i delte the whole folder

[peak mountain]

is that the library folder?

[worldly cave]

delete the folder itself

including everything inside of it

the Library folder that is

[sharp geyser]

yes

[sharp geyser]

ok

[peak mountain]

I mean id try what Danny suggested first if you havent already restart visual studio and unity

[sharp geyser]

did that

[silent mica]

Broke again?

[peak mountain]

then yeah close visual studio and unity. delete the folder. Open the project with visual studio without opening unity rename the file so it renames it everywhere in your code close visual studio and then open unity

[sharp geyser]

yes

[peak mountain]

if your project is large go get some lunch after cause its gonna take a bit to reimport everything

[silent mica]

Does the SO break immediately after renaming the file in Unity?

[ebon cypress]

If i import something as fbx, and i change it do i have to delete it and import it again?

I see there is a reimport option but it just doesnt work

[silent mica]

Are you sure you are making changes to the same file?

[sharp geyser]

yes

[ebon cypress]

yes, i change it then re export it

[sharp geyser]

i deleted libary n restarted it n have the same issue nvm ill just set it up again i might have messed something up along the process to fix it

[gray frigate]

No, and deleting the original FBX will break all of your references to it

[ebon cypress]

uh is there a way to undo reimport all?

[gray frigate]

no, just let it finish

Reimport All causes Unity to discard all of its imported data and refresh it all

[ebon cypress]

thing is it messed up some stuff

[gray frigate]

i'm guessing this is what actually went wrong

[ebon cypress]

or nvm its fine

[gray frigate]

simply update the FBX file; Unity will see that it has changed and reimport it

[ebon cypress]

so what does the reimport even do then?

[worldly cave]

are you using version control?

[ebon cypress]

oh

not happening tho

[gray frigate]

The "Reimport" action tells it to explicitly re-run the import process, even if the file has not changed on disk

[ebon cypress]

wdym

[gray frigate]

This usually does nothing

[worldly cave]

git or uvc?

[gray frigate]

version control allows you to checkpoint your work and undo changes if you make mistakes (like breaking a bunch of references)

[gray frigate]

hit ctrl+R; you may have configured Unity to not automatically import changed files

this command tells it to look for changes

[ebon cypress]

oh yeah i got that on git

[ebon cypress]

did nothing

[gray frigate]

Export another FBX file with a new name. Does it import correctly?

[ebon cypress]

yes

but should it import automatically or

i have to click import new assec

asset

[silent mica]

I think that makes a copy into your assets folder?

Save over the file within your project folder

[ebon cypress]

oh should i have the blender file be saved to the folder already?

ohhhh

[silent mica]

Yea I don't think there's a benefit to importing through the menu

[ebon cypress]

yeah i see

thanks

that will save me a lot of time lol

[gray frigate]

yeah, you want to export the FBX into your project

I keep my .blend files outside of the project. You can have Unity import them, but:

• this depends on Blender being installed, which can be annoying for teams
• you can't control the export settings at all

I use https://github.com/Wildergames/blender-quick-exporter to make exporting easy

[median roost]

is there a way to pixelate only one object?

ive tried so many things but i cant get it to work

[near wigeon]

apply special shader on material to only that object

[hard parcel]

Man it nuts how comes none really bothered with UI. and how massy the process of building UIs is.

It bothered me so much i had to spend several months to write reactiveuitoolkit.

Am i missing something ? are there other frameworks that streamline's this process ? is there an easy way to do databinding ?

most developer dont get to the stage where the UI even built ?..

very weird.

well

i dont know how to make a shader

ive been searching online

cant really find anything

[near wigeon]

how is that even possible.. there are dozens of instructions

there are even premade shaders if you look hard enough

[median roost]

all i fould are for 2d sprites

that pixelate 2d textures

or just pixelate the whole screen

[near wigeon]

there are there, thats why some people can make things similiar to Nudity filters etc.

perhaps you need to narrow your search better or something

[near wigeon]

what are you asking here exactly. UIToolkit does databinding and UGUI can in some very limited capacity (its more of a manual process)

whats wrong with the uitoolkit lol?
