Ask whoever made that asset, that's not a unity thing

It does

[wooden pebble]

So I have this very bizarre glitch that happens to me whenever I save my scripts. None of them even touch UI elements. THe screenshot is my inspector. Error codes:

[gray frigate]

have you tried resetting your layout yet?

[wooden pebble]

Let me just make a text file for all these

[gray frigate]

that often solves issues with borked windows

[wooden pebble]

Yes

I have to reload the project to get my inspector back

it only fixes it for a second

[pearl oyster]

Which editor version? These are usually fixed pretty quickly in the following patches

[wooden pebble]

error codes:

[wooden pebble]

Unity 6000.4.41f1

was working fine until recently

like broke 5 minutes before I messaged

[pearl oyster]

That doesn't exist. The latest is 6000.4.9f1

[wooden pebble]

I added an extra 1 on accident sorry lol

i meant
Unity 6000.4.4f1

[pearl oyster]

Ok well that's 5 patches behind so it's probably fixed by now

[wooden pebble]

Okay

I will install the latest and come back if it doesn't wrok

[pearl oyster]

Probably this one (fixed in 9f1): https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/editor-fails-to-render-and-nre-errors-thrown-when-domain-is-reloaded-after-code-changes-and-image-component-is-visible-in-inspector

[wooden pebble]

Okay thanks!

Hopefully my unity will decide to install properly unlike last time lol

Is there like a fiverr system somewhere to hire programmers to use basically as an AI chatbot about high level video game development

[storm patio]

yikes

[pearl oyster]

Yes, it's called Fiverr

[plain iron]

I dont think i trust anyone on that website or their credentials

[storm patio]

to use as a yesman? that sounds like it'd go against their ToS.

or any sensible ToS

that's torture, bro

[pearl oyster]

Then I don't see how you'd trust credentials on any other random website

[near wigeon]

5 dollar I will make you AAA game
-average post in fiverr

I love the

" high level" video game development
part

[plain iron]

what part of it because im pretty sure ur confused

[near wigeon]

realistically, You'd need to hire a team with proper compensation if you expect any quality work..

[plain iron]

I dont mean some guy to look through code and help me build and edit things but strictly a knowledge reservoir

Like a guy u can TRUST them as an oracle basically

[modest sluice]

Yoooo,can someone send me a script to do the player movement?

[storm patio]

you want a direct line to a blizzard senior dev or something?

[modest sluice]

Ok

[storm patio]

god i hope this is a joke and you don't actually think this

[near wigeon]

bother aint no way you could even afford such a thing

[plain iron]

like 50% of celebrities make videos for their fans who pay them. Why is using a chat hotline that crazy

[plain iron]

WTF IS THAT BS

Why is that like 3x a programmer just to talk

[near wigeon]

ah yes "just to talk"
cause you know people don't have time and family obligations also

[storm patio]

that's the price for

a guy u can TRUST

because to get that trust, you need to have decades of experience and knowledge

[plain iron]

But then doesnt it make more sense to hire a very good programmer to do stuff for me at that pay

thats what doesnt make sense

[near wigeon]

what are you even asking here dude, if you want knowledge you have the internet at your fingertips

[storm patio]

software architecture, software engineering, and programming aren't the same thing

the former ones require more experience and know-how, and cognitive ability to look at both big-picture stuff and details where it matters

[plain iron]

are u really going to trust AI or internet forums for stochastic differential equations that have to be outfitted to a specific pre-existing system

[storm patio]

price is driven by demand and supply. you're already providing the demand, as evidenced by you wanting this thing

[storm patio]

would you trust some random person you got off fiverr or some competing platform?

[near wigeon]

Yes if the source is credible.
I Don't use AI

[plain iron]

A website that maybe vets programmers probably. I dont think fiverr vets sht

[storm patio]

how do you know they actually vet stuff?

[near wigeon]

you do realize there are dozens of actual scientific papers and other trusted material before "AI" or "trusted fiver" was around

[storm patio]

getting one single person to help is either going to very expensive, as you're going to be paying for their time, expertise, experience, and knowledge, or not quite trustworthy if it isn't someone well-known to be an authority on the subject
the internet is full of peer-reviewed stuff, scientific papers, forums, etc

[plain iron]

The thing is with that, true knowledge is not specific things. They are bundled together across different fields, to where someone that has context of a pre-existing system could understand how to apply things correctly. That kind of knowledge takes YEARS and YEARS to acquire and sometimes its what required to build something

[near wigeon]

I think this is one of those, wanting most of the benefits with minimal work..
Again.. You're sounding more how a project manager approaches this, a bit unrealistic

[storm patio]

exactly why it's expensive lol

[near wigeon]

the higher the experience level you seek, the more you will pay.
Its simple economics lol

Why do you think the big AI push is here, people don't want to properly compensate people and think the AI will solve every problem without adressing the core issues

[plain iron]

I just still dont understand why its so much higher than a programmer. I bet there are plenty of software engineers who just enjoy talking about it. Like Tim Cain has a youtube channel just talking about this stuff

And ur not making them actually work so

[near wigeon]

Youtube pays them though? they don't just do it for fun

[plain iron]

https://www.youtube.com/@CainOnGames/videos I think at least for him its fun. He doesnt get enough views where the youtube money is worth it

[storm patio]

what do you think a programmer does, vs what do you think a systems architect does (using job descriptions that are less vague here)

[plain iron]

In a company, the difference is obvious. But if ur by urself or a very small team, i dont really know the difference

[storm patio]

it's the same difference

step back and think about what you're saying for a sec.
you want someone with years upon years of experience in a broad range of fields, and you want this individual to pay attention to you specifically for some period of time. and you're surprised that that service costs a lot?

[near wigeon]

yeah but this guy is like retired probably making tons of passive money, retirement etc..
aint no way you would be able to hire a guy in this position for consulting without putting a heafty sum infront

[plain iron]

Can u learn very advanced holistic knowledge of video game development in college classes, like i doubt it so where do people learn it

[exotic relic]

The exact place you seem to be against. the internet

[near wigeon]

literal years of experience is the part you're missing

[exotic relic]

This too.

[storm patio]

theory vs practice, man

learning in a classroom for a term or 2 can only get you so far

[potent geyser]

It's incredible that it has to be said lol

[storm patio]

you aren't going to be thinking in global infrastructure scales, at the very least

[potent geyser]

Imagine being at work, creating a project and then throwing up your hands and saying "I have to have someone teach me how to do this, where do I go!?"

[storm patio]

also, some people have just put in time and effort into developing the field themselves

[exotic relic]

I never went to school or college for this field. Just started messing with it in high school, a decade later of playing with it, publishing cringe stuff, and researching for hours by myself... content creation & programming is a habit. 👑

yes we chillin

[storm patio]

ok? it's noise here

please don't randomly ping specific users, happy with that phrasing?

this is a help/discussion channel, in a server that is primarily help/discussion

[bronze narwhal]

brother he just pinged me, why are you acting so defensive

[storm patio]

it's noise here
cumulatively it's annoying, honestly. like 8 people do this daily and use this same excuse, it's an egregious amount of noise

[river rivet]

are you a mod bro please don't act like a mini mod you are looking pretty ridiculous ıf it bothers you just turn off the notifications

[bronze narwhal]

i dont see a problem with people tagging each other in order to get help

[near wigeon]

thats why DMs exists. no need to spam the channel

[river rivet]

spam??

[storm patio]

#📖┃code-of-conduct does specify that community members can help keep social norms, well, normal.

[bronze narwhal]

no offense but you guys are the only ones making noise right now

[storm patio]

that may be your inexperience.

[bronze narwhal]

he was going to ask me a question on the server and that was about it

[storm patio]

ok, then just.. ask

if it's unity-related, of course

if not, take it to DMs

if it were unity related, then no need to ping specific people for help.

[storm patio]

trying to inform you of social norms here. it's your choice what to make of it. i'm not here to babysit anyone

[near wigeon]

if you're new you just gotta be made aware of the rules. It aint rocket science, if you want to dm each other or help, thats fine. No need spam channel for your personal convos

[river rivet]

I didn't spam i tagged memo once that's not spam

[near wigeon]

spam starts with unrelated messages to the server..

no need to drag this, now you know.. Keep it movin lol

[storm patio]

so if 8 unrelated people do it at the same time, it's not spam and shouldn't be removed?
just because it's "just one message" does not make it not spam lmao.

[bronze narwhal]

its the mod thats going to choose if they are gonna delete the message or not brother

you are accusing us of spamming just because he tagged me..

[plain iron]

Anyways since my issue is unresolved and doesnt have a clear solution what should I do. Ive been standing at a architecture crossroads of no return for a week. Getting on the computer and staring at the files for 8 hours a day and then going to bed feeling miserable because i accomplished nothing

<@&502884371011731486>

[plain iron]

The problem is its a semi-free lance longterm project not a personal hobby for fun

Its either it works or doesnt and I would have to be very experienced to know im not making scalability screw ups that ill meet down the line

[storm patio]

for architecture/design stuff, one thing that ime always helps would be getting all the info out of your head and onto paper or a whiteboard or a document or something like that
listing out requirements and constraints, drawing relationship diagrams, that kind of thing - doesn't need to be formal syntax or anything, just needs to be in front of you rather than purely in your head

[timber zealot]

What's going on here

[near wigeon]

yes but there are times where you gotta trim the fat or move into another project
its not easy calling it what it is sometimes, but we might feel no other choice when too deep.
shrinking scope doesn't mean abandon but maybe too many requirements for your skill level rn

[plain iron]

I could try drawing relationship diagrams but i already have tons of the other stuff. Because it feels not so far from the """Triple A""" category, it feels like a daunting road because so much of the stuff in that category is closed source. Like im missing tons of the right kinds of functions and math problems to be writing

[potent geyser]

This is an English only server, thanks. And if you two are friends, take it to DMs. This channel is for development questions/issues.

if you had a unity question for server you should've just posted that inquiry here..

The project is just starting and it got bunch of textures and files without lfs stored
Should i keep LFS? Or not?

[worldly cave]

is that a valid excuse to behave like this?

[storm patio]

it's easier to help when the question and context are together

[worldly cave]

and when the question is asked in the correct channel

[storm patio]

it's easier for you to get help when you ask in a relevant channel, because the people who would know how to help would be in that channel

[normal ingot]

bro I just want help in a small thing

[storm patio]

you still haven't said what you need help with, btw

[normal ingot]

no one is in the ui toolkit room

[worldly cave]

people who know how to deal with UIToolkit stuff typically go in that channel

[normal ingot]

I said it in the ui toolkit room

[storm patio]

cool, no-one to get in the way of your question

[worldly cave]

ok

[worldly cave]

then be patient

and dont crosspost here

[storm patio]

the people in other channels wouldn't know how to help anyways, just wait for someone in #🧰┃ui-toolkit

[normal ingot]

alr

I'm new to unity tbh

[storm patio]

that's ok, everyone was new once

[near wigeon]

arguably the unity UI is easier, and also more resources on it

[normal ingot]

i started with godot but unity is more popular and it has a lot of tutorials and stuff

[normal ingot]

yeah and its good

[fallen dragon]

all of that talk could have been prevented and more people could have saw my question about LFS if it wasnt for you not paying attention 🤦‍♂️

[normal ingot]

mb man

[near wigeon]

yes but UIToolkit is a bit harder to get into imo
Start with the Older UI (uGUI)

[storm patio]

iirc .gitattributes specifies what files to send to lfs based on file extension, you can modify that if you want

are you getting small file types sent unexpectedly?

[normal ingot]

I want to make something cool like " the last of us main menu "

[storm patio]

ngl i read unity.gitattributes and registered that as a package specifier, i need to go to sleep lmao

[near wigeon]

thats easily achievable in uGUI there is nothing special there

[worldly cave]

naughtydog menus are cool because of their background art

not the UI elements

[fallen dragon]

i have barely any idea what git lfs is, should i use it, and would ther ebe any problems
i heard its for storing big files but it just sends 5kb pngs and etc

[near wigeon]

exactly the UI elements are basic af cause basically its just text

[storm patio]

mmmm that doesn't sound right

oh i guess the gitattributes does say to put images in lfs as well

[near wigeon]

new one does the same
https://www.gameuidatabase.com/gameData.php?id=664

[fallen dragon]

is that bad?

[storm patio]

lfs is large file storage, a system to store files outside of a git repo while still tracking them in the repo
when they're outside the repo git won't have to do long diffs on large files when they change

[storm patio]

just on its own, in a vacuum? no, it's not particularly good nor bad
in your case if you aren't using any large .pngs, or large images in general, you could move them out of lfs if you want, probably.

i don't have personal experience with lfs to say what subtle benefits or drawbacks that might bring, but it certainly would be fine

[fallen dragon]

i dont get the point why would they be outside the repo, wouldnt that cause issues?
i assume ill be safe if i just, not use LFS at all since it worked fine before

[storm patio]

if they were just outside the repo, they wouldn't be tracked, that'd be an issue
lfs has them saved outside the repo, but still tracked

[storm patio]

do you actually have any large assets where lfs might be necessary?
cloud providers' free tiers do have limits, which are possible to hit with large assets for example

[fallen dragon]

its a pixelated game
with minecraft like characters
doubt even models would hit much

[normal ingot]

DOES unity take my money when i make the game

[worldly cave]

no

all of the information is available online

[normal ingot]

bro I'm just trying to start a conversation here

[storm patio]

this is a help/discussion channel

[worldly cave]

this is a help channel

this is not general chat

[normal ingot]

its called Unity-talk

[worldly cave]

oh boy

[normal ingot]

and it is on the general section

[fallen dragon]

Yeah no wonder its to ask questions about unity

[worldly cave]

this conversation again

there are no casual, general chat or off topic channels here

[storm patio]

it's kind of in a weird position

[worldly cave]

pretty much every channel except for a few like #🏆┃daily-win or #1180170818983051344 are help channels

[normal ingot]

then why you didnt call it unity-questions huh why u put it in the general section if its not general

[fallen dragon]

[normal ingot]

this server is wierd

[storm patio]

then new joins would put every question in this channel

[worldly cave]

im sure Burnout didnt personally choose the name of the channel

[fallen dragon]

oh didnt know daily win existed, thanks

[storm patio]

under the premise that the other channels don't have "help" or "questions" in the name

[normal ingot]

yeah i wonder who's fault is that

[worldly cave]

the new joins

almost always lol

because all of this information is available

people just choose not to read

[storm patio]

...this is your suggestion, so this would be.. your fault..?

im confused what you're asking lol

[normal ingot]

mybe

anyways u will find me at the unity toolkit room

alone

[storm patio]

just btw, keep in mind timezones and workdays are also a thing

[fallen dragon]

son someone created a thread in #archived-shaders what is this 😭

[brisk hill]

Hi it's me again. idk why, I can't put the textures properly, for the character. It supposed to be a cat human with mushrooms and blue coat. As you can see, the character appears all yellow. I saw that I could use a single texture material, but even that doesn't help

[worldly cave]

#1180170818983051344 to promote your game

[worldly cave]

theres a few issues going on here...

but your character appears mostly yellow probably because its materials are also yellow

can you clarify what you mean by you cant "put textures properly" ?

you also typically dont want to have close to 11 materials for just 1 character

that is overkill

[little marsh]

Damn

Know any unity discords I can hire?

[worldly cave]

not really no

I doubt there are any Unity specific ones

[little marsh]

Yea

[brisk hill]

no, my initial texturation from blender is not that yellow.

[brisk hill]

each element applys on the wrong and right (so randmly) object of the caracter. For exemple "element 1" will select both the coat and the nose, two very differents objects.

But you answered me

I think ?

[worldly cave]

that means that in blender those 2 meshes shared the same material slot

this all depends on how you actually handled the materials inside of blender

but seeing your character has 11 materials is a problem on its own

[brisk hill]

when I click on "-" the objects disapear too.

[worldly cave]

i think its less they dissappear and more the fact you are removing their materials

making them not visible

[brisk hill]

I said this exemple but there were many more who don't share the same material

[worldly cave]

yes and what i said still applies

it also highly depends on how the materials are set up in blender when you exported the asset

[brisk hill]

can't I just do something with the single whole texture image ?

this

[worldly cave]

i mean i have no clue what your uv map looks like and how your materials are set up

[latent meadow]

you should talk to #🔀┃art-asset-workflow . it looks like your entire character can be one texture, but you have it split over multiple materials assigned to certain vertex groups. .. maybe the blender discord is a better start, to get that part resolved

[brisk hill]

yeah, I already tried from the blender community, but there weren't that much helped unfortunatly.

But it's ok, maybe I should re-export the character into one single material instead of 11s ?

[latent meadow]

if the contents of that texture in the image of the UV is the entirety of your character, then yes, barring a need to change it in game, such as character customization.

[brisk hill]

gotcha.
and just for the record, it's not for a game

it's a VR

[latent meadow]

then, as kuzmo mentioned, that many materials is severe overkill. each one is a draw call. bad mojo for #🥽┃virtual-reality

[glossy topaz]

do u guys have bare .blend files for each one of ur guns animations?

[worldly cave]

not the common workflow no

typically its 1 blend file, with the gun and all of the animations inside that one blend file

[vital forum]

Hello, I was wondering how to convert a .bundle file into a Unity project. The thing is, I’m trying to copy a literal level from a VR game, and am unsure if what I’m doing is correct (since I ended up with errors)

[uneven coral]

does anyone here play on a taller screen than 16:9? (specifically PC games)

[vivid cedar]

You don't.

If you want the assets from a game, contact the developer and discuss it. Asset ripping discussion isn't permitted on this discord server

[vital forum]

Oh no my bad, perhaps I worded it wrong. There is a mod-friendly VR game called “Blade & Sorcery”, which has a guide on how to open the SDK and unity project, etc…
In the modding community, many people have taken old maps and simply reuploaded them as mods (since in newer versions they became inaccessible) and I am planning to do something similar just with daytime cycles of maps, like make mods for maps for both night time and day time

FOR that, I would need to edit one of the level bundle files

[balmy kettle]

ask in that game's modding community. asset ripping of any kind, including for modding, is not permitted here. and modding discussions are also off topic since they require non-standard things (like this)

[vivid cedar]

Discussion of modding, asset ripping, decompiling, etc, for good or bad, is just not allowed on this server - Unity's decision.

I see

Thank you for letting me know

[balmy kettle]

i can't imagine taller is all that common, but wider certainly is

16:10 did used to be common, but that was overtaken over 15 years ago by 16:9

[uneven coral]

yeah i figured
I was just asking because my UI becomes more unplayable as I approach going into phone resolution

[median bear]

i switched to godot does that mean i will get banned?

[slow dirge]

If you keep on asking silly questions, maybe.

[median bear]

how do i add a stingaling to my game

[slow dirge]

Ask in Godot server. We don't provide help on Godot here if that wasn't clear. 😅

[rocky mirage]

helloo, i want to ask, im learning and trying to make a 3d third person fighting game, is there any good tutorials on where i should get started?

[wild otter]

isn't that too overkill?

I mean, is this server really THAT strict?

man, people can't even joke

just be nice man

jeez

[tall hearth]

which of anything he said was a joke?

[wild otter]

I was not referring to this specific situation, but i've seen it before

[slow dirge]

Indeed. People here can't even make a joke!

[tall hearth]

i wouldn't even call the "jokes" that have been said here as jokes, it's like if you went up to your teacher and saying "67" when he asks you if you need help with school work

[wild otter]

again, not like that

[tall hearth]

it is like that though, this is a help server not a communication / hang out server

if you aren't here to discuss something related to unity in there respective channels why be here

[slow dirge]

They asked a clearly provocative "joke"-like question.
I gave them a clearly provocative "joke"-like answer.
I don't get what the issue is..?

I get it, I just think it woudn't hurt for people to be a little nicer sometimes, sure this is a help server, but some newcomers might not know it is that strict on the matter

[wild otter]

yeah I love it, been learning a lot on it

[slow dirge]

I don't really understand what you mean by "strict". I'm not a moderator and can't ban them. My comment had nothing to do with "strictness".

[wild otter]

I know you're not, i'm talking about people acting like they were. You were the trigger for this subject, but i am not talking about you specifically, and I got that your response wasn't that unpolite bro

I'll stop talking about it, don't want to be annoying or anything, sorry

[azure musk]

the shadows look too realistic

[hidden panther]

there's too many passive-aggresive chuds on this server, this is my last resort whenever I had a problem

I could've asked on reddit and will probably get similar answer, but it's nice seeing someone genuinely like to help

[median bear]

so does all that mean im banned for switching or nah

[copper gust]

no

no one cares

its a program not a football team

[hidden panther]

lmaoo ur finee

[slow dirge]

No, but if you keep on trolling you will get banned.

[median bear]

on kieth?

[iron frost]

I need help with something.

I try to drag a png folder into unity and it keeps showing up with a blocked sign (aka 🚫)

[potent geyser]

What part of Unity are you dragging it into? It should be the Projects panel's asset folder.

[iron frost]

Yeah. I’m dragging into the assets area

[potent geyser]

Take a screenshot of your editor and mark where you're doing it

[iron frost]

There is this warning message. It might mean something.

[iron frost]

I will

Here’s what’s going on

Idk if it’s a problem with the png or a unity problem.

[potent geyser]

Apparently a permissions thing. Either way, you can just open your project folder and drag the files in directly.

Right click one of the folders there and you can open it in explorer as a fast way to get to it.

[iron frost]

I’ll try

Didn’t work for me.

Idk what’s going on.

[potent geyser]

You can't even put the files into the folder outside of Unity?

[iron frost]

Idk what’s going on. I’ll try to do sum real quick

[potent geyser]

Is this your personal laptop?

[iron frost]

Grandmas. I’m saving up for one rn.

There’s a warning at the bottom that says “The following asset(s) located in immutable packages were unexpectedly altered. Making changes to immutable packages isn’t recommended because the changes can be lost without any warning during Package Manager Operations.

[potent geyser]

Put the files in the folder outside of Unity

[iron frost]

I tried importing it. It worked but it didn’t. It said it completed successfully but it didn’t happen. I think I figured out how to do it.

FINALLY!

[iron frost]

Tysm Osteel. You’re the goat!

Ima go work on my project now. Let’s hope it goes well!

[tall hearth]

this is probably really simple and I'll look dumb for asking but why's the whole Buttons header not serialized? do UIElements.Button not serialize?

[copper gust]

it seems so yeah

[tall hearth]

annoying ~_~ UI.Button do but they dont have the clicked event that UIElements does

oh wait these are two seperate things huh, think UIElements is for making your own windows inside the editor?

[lapis gate]

probably

Unity Button should be serializable

[tall hearth]

where tf is the documentation on UI.Button then 😭

scripting api only has UIElements

[tall hearth]

it is but i dont know the event for it and clicked which is it for UIElements doesn't exist for UI

[lapis gate]

guys i used codex to code out a tennis game. i tried to change the main loading screen.

when i press play, the game works normally. however, if i press build 3d prototype scene, the game reverts back to the original version that codex produced.( the one without the changed main screen).

what can i do to prevent this from happening? ANy advice is greatly appreciated thanks!

when i changed the main loading screen, i added some objects to the scene hierarchy and some scripts that made the yellow screen disappear then show the game. everything else was coded by codex

[storm patio]

don't forget to save

[arctic obsidian]

even after i save and the aesterix is no longer there. clicking on build 3d prototype scene ruins the game. hold on let me show u a video

maybe i can pm you?

[bitter horizon]

yo what is going on

what are these numbers

how to turn them off

i tried to format my code in vs code and somehow it turned these numbers on

[copper gust]

Hi everyone,

I'm researching Unity Shader Graph file structures and compatibility across different Unity versions.

I'm looking for large or complex Shader Graph examples for testing purposes.

If anyone is willing to share Shader Graph files (HDRP, URP, VFX, Water, Terrain, Stylized, etc.), I'd really appreciate it.

Please let me know:

• Unity version
• Render Pipeline (URP/HDRP/Built-in)
• Whether the graph uses Sub Graphs

I'm especially interested in graphs with:

• many nodes
• multiple groups
• subgraphs
• advanced setups

Thanks!

[molten olive]

Nike sponsored youth team straight ripped the Unity logo lol.

Arizona Unity. Saw a youtube short with one of the players and did a triple take on the logo

[storm patio]

ai prompt: make a logo representing unity
the output:

[tall hearth]

bruh, is it bad that i want to see them get sued by unity and lose?

how does someone fuck up that badly

[storm patio]

probably not lol

[worldly cave]

I think its a bit of an overreaction lol

Chances are someome who designed the logo googled the word "Unity" and saw the old Unity symbol, not realizing its trademarked and just tacked it on

Surprisingly or unsurprisingly this sort of thing happens often

THIS DOESNT WORK

😭

[worldly cave]

What doesnt work

[molten olive]

I want this to go viral badly lol. Just cause its funny.

[pallid rampart]

what idea

[terse ridge]

when updating my scripts, sometimes the editor play button cannot be clicked. not even the hotkey works. but if I go to menu Edit > Play Mode > Play, it works. this problem happens a lot, and i have found a way to fix the unclickable play button by rapidly pressing Ctrl and Escape (and maybe left clicking) in random sequence.

[subtle owl]

I personally click the scene object hierarchy or project folder after updating scripts, and everything works. It's possible this is due to switching tabs.

[robust vortex]

exactly

[pallid rampart]

wym

[robust vortex]

what idea

[pallid rampart]

im asking him

i have my own idea

[robust vortex]

Yo how does unity relay work cuz i heard they recently combined all the multiplayer packages into one package and now whatever i do i always hit a roadblock

Im just tryna let my friends be able to play my netcode game

Hey, guys! Unity has a 3D modeling tool called UModelerX did you know about it?

I mean first or second time it is that I have heard about it and its really interesting you can really do modeling within Unity like in Blender XD

probuilder can do modeling within unity too (to an extent)

Does anyone here dev for VR games?

Plenty of people do, if you have a question regarding VR ask it here or in #🥽┃virtual-reality

[terse ridge]

I'll try that, thanks.

What do I do if I'm stuck at "Compiling Scripts (busy for 2:33)" ? I pressed cancel, and it's stuck at "Cancelling"

It normally compiles at 2 seconds.

I went to Task Manager and ended the task for Unity. I restarted Unity, and it's stuck at the Unity Engine splash loading picture, at "Compiling Scripts: Running Backend". This all started when I added void OnDisable() { Debug.Log("test"); } to one of my monobehavior scripts.

ok, I ended Unity task, and closed Unity Hub. Deleted Library/ScriptAssemblies and Library/ArtifactDB, and I noticed multiple .NET Host tasks and .NET, and I ended those. I commented out the OnDisable code. Relaunched Unity, and it's working now. Uncommented the code, and it's working.

[normal ingot]

[worldly cave]

Whats wrong?

[normal ingot]

was you always like that with people?

[worldly cave]

what?

[latent meadow]

you gave someone proper server directions, how dare you kuzmo!

[normal ingot]

yeah he's annoying people

leave them alone bro

[worldly cave]

Idk man the only person not leaving anyone alone right now is You lol

[normal ingot]

bro I'm just giving an advice yk

there is no need to insult me

ik u angry from the inside

but i love you bro

let it go

[slim turret]

❤️

[normal ingot]

thanks for spreading positivity

[near wigeon]

yet you're here always spamming nonsense - unrelated / instigating replies

fast way track to a mute

I don't think I've seen you once actually reply to help someone..

[normal ingot]

i just opened discord yesterday

and i started using it

(the acc is old but yeah)

[near wigeon]

nobody cares. Your stay here has just been replying to instigate shit.

[normal ingot]

u wanna help , I'm here bro

[normal ingot]

lets stay with an attitude alr 😊

kuzmo will mute you

[worldly cave]

Bringing me up again just proves what nav is saying is true

youre here just to talk shit and not provide anything of value

[normal ingot]

u did the clown imoji didnt u ?

[worldly cave]

Im not going to play "he said she said" with you, but its you who started it, provided nothing of value to the conversation and then felt the need to tell me and nav to effectively calm down

[normal ingot]

i found that disrespectfull

[worldly cave]

Im sure you did, just how im finding your behavior and attitude abhorent

[normal ingot]

i didnt insult somone at all

[worldly cave]

[normal ingot]

i see nothing wrong with that question

I didnt insult you

[latent meadow]

that was sarcasm, as in, there was nothing at all wrong with directing someone to the proper rooms, and giving instruction. you seem to be having a personal issue. please take it somewhere else.

[normal ingot]

ik it was sarcasm bro I'm not blind

let's see what dibbie says

i am sure he's with me

[fair cove]

Your comment was a emoji to kuzmo pointing someones code-related question to a code-specific channel, you then made that comment suggesting that it was wrong to point them to a different channel, then you made assumptions such as "hes annoying people" and "angry from inside" even though no indication proved either statement, even with the context I dont understand where your confusion comes from

[near wigeon]

here just to instigate, go somewhere else

[latent meadow]

i assumed language barrier, not vision issue.

[normal ingot]

yeah but it was a Constructive criticism

[normal ingot]

''blind'' has a lot of meanings yk

[near wigeon]

you can keep unwanted critisim to yourself especially when it has 0 to do with the scope of the server .

[latent meadow]

anyhow, this has gone on more than long enough. everyone get their last sentence in if needed, then please move on before a moderator has to be bothered with this.

hi sam

[sturdy totem]

Unity 6.4 is taking long

It said failed 3 times

[worldly cave]

taking long to do what?

Install?

[sturdy totem]

Ye

[worldly cave]

whats the command for the installing issues again?

[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.

[worldly cave]

did you run through this checklist?

[normal ingot]

alr guys enough rage baiting ( just to let sam get the help he wants without bothering )

[sturdy totem]

Where do I find it

[worldly cave]

find what?

[sturdy totem]

Look

[worldly cave]

do you not see the bot message above?

[near wigeon]

in the bot message

[sturdy totem]

I can't find the pic

[sturdy totem]

But idk

[worldly cave]

this?

do you not see this in the chat?

if so you might have to turn on "embeds" for discord

[sturdy totem]

I do

[fair cove]

Are you viewing Discrod on mobile atm? Maybe the message shows up differently

[near wigeon]

[worldly cave]

so what are you having trouble finding im not understanding

I already did all of that

Still

[stuck flower]

Wonder if it might have been a storage space thing? Like, you didn't have enough room on your C drive before, but when you went to check today, some cache cleared or something and it was able to fit it all?

If you're close to full on your C drive, it might be good to clear some off just in case. Unity installs things to your OS drive before extracting it elsewhere, even if you set it to install to a different drive

[sturdy totem]

I deleted everything

But now the project keeps crashing

Unity please fix it

[stuck flower]

When you say you "deleted everything" what does that include?

Because if you deleted things from your project or your unity install I would expect crashing to be the result

[sturdy totem]

Every file for it to download

But the project is crashing now

@stuck flower

It crashed again

[stuck flower]

So, you deleted the editor files and you expect it not to crash?

[sturdy totem]

No

[stuck flower]

Try not deleting the editor

[sturdy totem]

I wanna open a project

But it keeps crashing

[stuck flower]

What did you delete then?

[sturdy totem]

The other files I never use

[stuck flower]

Unrelated to Unity at all?

[dusky forum]

Was the project crashing before you deleted everything?

[sturdy totem]

What is version 6000. 4. 9f1.

[sturdy totem]

Yes

[dusky forum]

So deleting stuff wasn't the cause of the project being unusable initially.

[near wigeon]

so is this a specific project or a brand new project?

[sturdy totem]

New one

I lost the old ones

Idc Abt the old ones

[tall hearth]

you lost the old ones? is your drive dying / corrupted?

[near wigeon]

I would try make a new project with other versions as well to eliminate the possibility of corrupted app

[sturdy totem]

It said

Failed of a version

[sturdy totem]

This version

""6000. 4. 9f1.""

[stuck flower]

What does it say specifically

Don't try to paraphrase what you think is important

[sturdy totem]

I just need to know what version I need to use

[stuck flower]

For a new project, literally any version

[sturdy totem]

Then why does it crash with the same version

I tried two projects on the same version

I used 2

[stuck flower]

Maybe you should explain what you mean by "crash"

[sturdy totem]

And it crashes

[sturdy totem]

It doesn't load and and kicks me out of unity6 and unity itself

[worldly cave]

what kind of project are you loading?

your own?

[stuck flower]

If there's no error message and the program just doesn't load at all it would indicate either you need to reinstall or possibly your computer itself is the problem

[sturdy totem]

I'll try restarting my pc

[sturdy totem]

It's always my graphics API whatever it is

I quit this

Unity thingy

It never works

It worked but now not anymore

I'm gonna do it one more time

3 more

2 more

1 more alr

[worldly cave]

what kind of gpu do you have?

what are your specs?

[sturdy totem]

I quit

[worldly cave]

Ok, would still like to know, maybe your specs are the reason for your troubles

your gpu, cpu and ram?

[sturdy totem]

Idk

Brother I'm done

[worldly cave]

open your task manager, go to "performance" and tell us what it says

[sturdy totem]

If it doesn't work it doesn't work

[worldly cave]

I mean thats not a healthy attitude to have

especially if you want to develop games lol

[sturdy totem]

My brain isn't braining

[worldly cave]

Im just saying, youre going to need more tenacity for these kinds of things

lets eliminate your specs being an issue, go to your task manager, and under the peformance tab, tell us what kind of cpu, gpu and how much ram your pc has

[worldly cave]

ah

that would then confirm it yes

[vivid cedar]

Yeah that's a low power CPU with an integrated GPU

[worldly cave]

and 8gb of ram

possibly single channel

[sturdy totem]

Never going to India ever again

[worldly cave]

Yeah Unity is going to need a lot more out of your PC than your PC can actually afford to give

Honestly until or unless you upgrade, i would suggest you switch to something like Godot

[sturdy totem]

So it won't work

What's godot

[worldly cave]

another game engine

lighter more performant for weaker set ups

[sturdy totem]

Alr

[worldly cave]

Unity has a lot of overhead

[sturdy totem]

I'll download godot now and sleep and tomorrow I'll finish the rest

I'll add you to help me I got 0IQ

[worldly cave]

dont

[sturdy totem]

Why

[hollow fiber]

this isnt an issue with specs

[hollow fiber]

are you able to open a previous project?

[sturdy totem]

Cya tmrw y'all goodbyeeeeee

[sturdy totem]

No

[worldly cave]

The Issue is unrelated, but theres no way this person will have a pleasant time using Unity for anything with specs that weak...

[sturdy totem]

I'm switching to godot

Btw recroom is gone tomorrow

Not 31 may

June 1

🙁

But bye

[glossy topaz]

could u send a screenshot

[worldly cave]

of what?

[glossy topaz]

a blend file with the gun and all of the animations inside that one blend file

[hollow fiber]

I would suggest deleting your package cache folder

[worldly cave]

How is a screenshot going to help you here? its as I described it

[sturdy totem]

30 seconds in godot and I already made a project

It works

[sturdy totem]

Nah is ok

Bye for real now I go sleep

[glossy topaz]

do u use bone constraints?

[sturdy totem]

Gn

[scarlet notch]

I have a question what is the best modding hubs for a gorilla tag fan game I need atleast 2

[worldly cave]

I use a custom Rig

[worldly cave]

hubs?

[scarlet notch]

Mhm

[worldly cave]

no clue what that is

[scarlet notch]

or someone that can protect my game

[hollow fiber]

the issue with your workflow is if you want to then edit some parts of the model you have to edit 20 blend files

do you know what an action is in blender?

[worldly cave]

Protect how?

[hollow fiber]

people usually just put a bunch of actions in the one project

[worldly cave]

Im confused as to what you are asking of us here

none of this is regular terminology

I think you are best off asking in the actual Gtag server rather than here

[scarlet notch]

From exploits

[scarlet notch]

idk if prob get banned or smth

[worldly cave]

you will get banned here too if you continue talking about modding games 😩

[scarlet notch]

balrighttt

[worldly cave]

anyways, for gtag stuff always ask in their respective communities

its too specific for anyone here to really know anything about it

[glossy topaz]

no its just that i got my character, got my SKS, i am gonna animate the gun and sks but i got a bone constraint with a bone of the sks attatched. but if i want to animate a new gun, i need a new constraint and then for every animation i gotta set influence of t he first constraint to 0 and its gonna be like that for every new gun

i dont know if ur allowed to use this stuff or do what im doing for unity

[tropic vortex]

Hello everyone

[worldly cave]

Hi #🌱┃start-here

[tropic vortex]

Misread one of the roles

[rocky trail]

Hi I have a question so I want to start making 3D horror but Idk if I should try Unity or godot I want to mainly aim for low-mid poly style like the monetary assistant and Emily wants too play or like Madison even though Madison uses hdrp hopefully this make sense I mainly want to just make anomaly games and narrative later though ofc can’t start that rn

[worldly cave]

I dont think theres a right answer here... at the end of the day its your choice

but consider youre asking us in the Unity server, if you should pick between Unity or another Engine

youre going to get biased answers

theres a ton of resources online comparing both Engines, at the end of the day its a choice you will have to make yourself

[latent meadow]

quick way to possibly eliminate Unity is your system specs. how much RAM, and VRAM?

[worldly cave]

Yeah godot is significantly more lightweight compared to Unity... if your PC is on the weaker side it will simply be the better option based on that alone

[high vale]

Anyone have suggestions on how to improve this?

[latent meadow]

make a #1180170818983051344 and ask there

Hello

Every time I create a unity project I get a “Virus detection” message

And it breaks the unity project

The older projects work completely fine

But I can no longer create new projects because of this issue

[latent meadow]

screenshot the message. list the version of Unity you are using.

[jade kiln]

Alright give me a second

[slow dirge]

What files does it detect as a virus?

[jade kiln]

So I’m using versions
6.000.0.36f1
And
6.000.4.6f1

[jade kiln]

It’s marking them as a DLL file

[tall hearth]

took you 30 minutes and not even a screenshot 💔

[slow dirge]

marking the files as a dll file?

That's not exactly what I was asking. What's the message that the antivirus gave you? Why did it quarantine these files?

And no photos of the screen please

[latent meadow]

update 6.0

[jade kiln]

It said “threat detected”

That’s it

[latent meadow]

https://www.take-a-screenshot.org/windows.html

[jade kiln]

I know mate
But I turned off WiFi just in case anything happens
Because I borrowed this laptop from college

[slow dirge]

It gives you the specific reason here:

[tall hearth]

where i've marked are lines where you can get more info on the type of virus, and the file path of where it originated

[jade kiln]

it took me here

[slow dirge]

It would also help if you provided the full path of that dll library...

[humble kayak]

Hey! So, i want to increase my max lights above 8, but i cant seem to do that inside the urp asset. How can i fix?

[latent meadow]

use deferred or forward+

[slow dirge]

This looks like some custom package, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a chance for it to contain infected dependencies.
Maybe not custom. Gotta have a better look.

[humble kayak]

So- i did. It is on forward+ but changed nothing

[latent meadow]

do you mean per material/object, or total in scene?

total in scene

[latent meadow]

there should not be a limit.. i have never seen that. perhaps talk to #1391720450752516147

[humble kayak]

oh alr

[near wigeon]

id nuke windows at this point lol

[jade kiln]

i'd do that to exept the fact that this isn't my Laptop

I got it from college for two years

[near wigeon]

so is this a school antivirus thing installed or you put that ?

could be catching false positives but infected dlls are not uncommon so 🤔

[jade kiln]

I have Sophos Endpoint

[near wigeon]

that doesnt really answer lol

[jade kiln]

It was built in

i didn't install it ...

it was already there when i got the laptop

[near wigeon]

I would remove it if it lets you and stick with the Windows one. If that isnt detecting it, highly unlikely a third party thing would catch it better

[tall hearth]

so a school antivirus, windows doesnt by default have whatever sophos endpoint installed

[jade kiln]

yes ig

[latent meadow]

if you are willing to go back online, upload the dlls to virustotal dot com and see what they have to say.

[jade kiln]

:)

[latent meadow]

it was a temp folder, so it is gone now. you'd have to catch it in the act. at least that is what i assume is happening

[slow dirge]

Seems like a common false positive with this antivirus specifically:
https://community.sophos.com/sophos-central/f/discussions/147929/mal-encpk-aqq---malware-alert

[latent meadow]

for what it is worth, the general AIs are suggesting false positive too

[random glen]

Hey gamers, soo. I haven't touched unity in forever and just tried making a new project just for it not to launch, anyone familiar with this? I honestly am not even sure how "to launch" it really ....

[humble kayak]

Ok- i fixed the lighting max with a simple reload- but now i have the issue of not being able to bake my lights because unity's toon shader doesn't support it

[jade kiln]

How do i solve this issue ?

it happens everytime

for like a week now

[latent meadow]

you first, upload the dlls to the mentioned site. if they suggest it is clean, you remove sophos, as suggested, or at minimum, disable it while not connected to school networks

[latent meadow]

yes, your computer is an agent for the auto-bots. they have decided no Unity for you.
or, maybe we just need more details to be sure

[thin wagon]

is this the place to ask about the animation window UI? I'm really confused on a very specific part...

[jade kiln]

the files are gone

i can't find them

[latent meadow]

@random glen you can check the logs to search for Error

#🏃┃animation

[random glen]

Ah shucks... perhaps this could help although im not sure what info I can provice besides the version. I am using Unity Hub and the version is an older one for an ad-on I'm going to use :') (2019.4.3f1) Here is the program

[thin wagon]

thank you!

[near wigeon]

your project itself seems corrupted

0 bytes

[random glen]

ah fr?

[latent meadow]

yes, they are Temp files. they will come and go. do what you did previously to trigger it, then go directly to the folder, before closing Unity, and see if you can Copy it to a new location. it Might be that sophos auto-quarantined it. i am not sure

[random glen]

oh lord ... you're right, how to fix? make a new one?

[near wigeon]

have you tried a new project yet ?

[latent meadow]

also, 2019 is not a supported version. long out of date.

[random glen]

mmm. yes it didnt even make it appear on the projects tab

[slow dirge]

Yes. Because your antivirus quarantined them. Disable the antivirus and recreate the project fron scratch

[random glen]

I know, unfortunately my adon isnt gonna work with newer so Im kinda just taking it as it goes I suppose .u.

[near wigeon]

but what if you do Add and go to the folder you created project in

[random glen]

I just remade my project and it actually showed without me needing to path it this time, it says the size is a "-"

Okay, nvm it also says the path isnt found for this one wtf

[jade kiln]

what if it's a positive one ?

[near wigeon]

could be pathing or permissions issue

make sure Hub has proper permissions
try to avoid spaces in paths, sometimes causes issues

[slow dirge]

Well, then unity distributes a virus and you should avoid installing it.

[near wigeon]

holy flashbang

[random glen]

mmm i tried even with just /user/ on my main drive and it didnt do much honestly

[slow dirge]

For starters, don't create projects inside the users dir.

[jade kiln]

alr

[near wigeon]

idk too much about linux but you would need to check Hub has been given permissions to write into folders

also check the Hub logs for more details on when its failing to confirm

[random glen]

Where do I get access to that? is there a specific path to it ?

also if you installed via Snap or alike, I'd avoid that

sandboxing issues

[random glen]

I've tried both discover, and also just through the website it seems regardless it causes issues

[near wigeon]

maybe older version of hub you can try ? perhaps someone in #🐧┃linux knows

[random glen]

How the heck do I get access to chose channels whaaat 🤯

I didnt see platform options when setting up lol

[mellow basalt]

show all channels

[random glen]

Bless you!

[jade kiln]

but it didn't let me copy them

[latent meadow]

how does it not? what does it say?

[jade kiln]

file removed

can't copy it because the file no longer exists or sm like that

[latent meadow]

ok. at this point, this is not a Unity issue. i suggest talking to the IT dept. at the school, or going to a computer shop and having them do a deep virus scan

[jade kiln]

i've changed file locations to Documents before this too

[jade kiln]

Alright

thank you for the help everyone

Bless

[glass depot]

just spent nearly an hour debugging and stressing just to realise all my issues happened because I forgot to turn off collisions on my model parts 🫠

gg

[raven spindle]

Yeah, I keep forgetting to dissable the XR Simulator so when I test on my headset for my VR Game it's an experience worse than any rollercoster i've been on LOL

[tulip jungle]

how do I install newer version

[near wigeon]

https://screenshot.help

[latent meadow]

it would be faster to google this

[tulip jungle]

I don't have discord pc

[near wigeon]

https://docs.unity.com/en-us/hub/add-editor

free on the house this time

[tall hearth]

it'd be faster to use ones eyes, especially when just two tabs down is "installs" 😭

[latent meadow]

you and i know it, but i just do not have the time to explain things that are a matter of record/too obvious

[near wigeon]

it takes 2 seconds to use it through browser..

[tall hearth]

in layman's terms it's here

[latent meadow]

discord is a website that you can just login to. no need for a pc app or anything

[tulip jungle]

wrong time

wait

(i edited a dedicated static watermark that displays 9:55, but the taskbar time shows 10:10)

[latent meadow]

what does this have to do with anything?

[storm patio]

you can open discord in your browser

[tulip jungle]

yea, i just found out earlier

[tulip jungle]

I added a watermark to my screenshot

just to troll whoever sent the https://screenshot.help/ link

[glass depot]

is it possible to make a movement shooter without slopes...

theyve been causing me nothing but agony for like 3 hours I fucking hate slopes

[potent geyser]

Why do you think it wouldn't be?

[glass depot]

well stairs and general map design

most stairs are just fake slopes

[potent geyser]

Yes, because that works fine

[glass depot]

and it feels like im very much cheating and poor code if I cant make slopes generally work with my movement handler but its been so terrible

the speeds just dont make sense

[potent geyser]

Most games don't rely on realism as long as it's fun. You don't have to make it make sense.

[glass depot]

sure but I want my base movement to be generally consistent, and kind of irrelevelent to slopes but im just flying up non flat walls

ive managed to make a sort of dynamic drag system but slopes really mess with that since it changes my speed around

its pretty game breaking so I wanna make sure its just out of the way and done before I move onto stuff like actual wall running and whatever else

its one of those things I feel if I just ignore slopes itll bite me in the ass later

but I guess I could sweep it under the rug for now

[potent geyser]

Making a character controller has always been an absurd amount of work

And one that kind of needs to be nailed down, before you start level designing

[glass depot]

yeah which is why ive been suffering with slopes because I dont want my game to just not have any

technically possible but i think itd be pretty damaging to level design]

[potent geyser]

Well, I can't offer any advice other than ... good luck lol

Or I guess if I could offer advice, when making a CC, you need to calculate the velocity each frame based on all the things that are trying to modify it. Never give one single thing the ability to define the velocity of the character, to avoid the issues of things changing the speed around.

There can be circumstances that override the velocity, but that is something that gets calculated into the final velocity.

[glass depot]

Yeah ive kept it relatively clean, im mixing snappy precise movement and momentum based movement with customisable drag

nothing is forcing anything so its all flowing well

until slopes

because slopes are slopes

[potent geyser]

I don't know what that means

[glass depot]

high drag/low drag depending on speed

[potent geyser]

But if you actually explain to yourself what the ideal solution is for slopes, you can work your way to a solution. Something vague like "it doesn't feel good" or "they're slopes" is too vague.

[glass depot]

oh with slopes nothing has worked

theyre the spawn of the devil

[tall hearth]

to be fair if im a person in one of these fps games and i see a flight of stairs my first thought wouldn't be to slide down them so such features just remove from "realism"
