Fake it until you make it. Or until somebody else makes it.
Recently the devilishly handsome Nick Breslin asked about an alternative to namespaces in Unity. Namespaces are a familiar concept to C# programmers that solve the problem of naming collisions, but Unity has yet to support them. The documentation promises that this limitation “will be removed in a future version,” but don’t hold your breath. You need to breathe. (more…)
I’m going to remake The Godfather… in 3D!
Today I’m releasing the cutscene editor I worked on as part of Unity’s Summer of Code last year. (more…)
I’ve had enough of your mumbo jumbo. Unless your mumbo jumbo encompasses coroutines. Those I dig.
After my last two borderline useless posts, perhaps today’s code snippet will be more valuable. I’m optimistic.
In the dimeRocker Unity client, of which I’m a developer, coroutines are used to send information to and from the servers. Conveniently, coroutines can execute in parallel with your own code or they can be called from another coroutine in order to wait for their completion. Such functionality is useful in Unity for a number of purposes, and seasoned developers will certainly be familiar with them. (more…)
I am overjoyed at your ability to use hyperlinks.
Recently a somewhat detailed progress report about my Cutscene Editor was posted on the Unity3D blog. Rather than copying and pasting the post here, I reckon I’ll link to the article instead. Enjoy!
A scroll view that tries to reveal its content, how utterly pointless.
Today’s Unity discovery: calling Event.Use() every time the OnGUI() function runs will cause scroll views to not work. At least, they won’t respect any dimensions you set and will simply stretch to accommodate the elements contained within it. “A scroll view that tries to reveal its content, how utterly pointless.” Those were my exact words.
