[@Sim2322]

If you dive deep enough, you can do pretty much anything you technically fancy like completely override the renderers, une a bunch of unsafe code, and even use the library in other frameworks. Only downside to unity is the learning curve for beginner, since c# is relatively inrermediate-level, and the visual scripting is poop

As a solo game dev, BIGGEST challenge I am facing right now is optimizing the world for my open world game. And I am super happy to see these performance oriented updates, however.... those pricing changes still lurking in my mind though... .😅😅

[@damonfedorick]

As a solo dev, if you make over 250k I'm sure the pricing will not affect you. The pricing policy is designed for large teams taking advantage of unity's free service. Since unity is not a free product but do offer free resources for small teams and students to learn.

[@hamzahgamedev]

@@damonfedorick yes definitely 💯, if I will be able to hit the 250k target, I will be super happy to share with Unity. 💪🏻

[@WolfMobileDev]

@damonfedorick@@hamzahgamedev The original pricing change was very worrying, If you had a free mobile game, for example, that found major success but your average money per user wasn't good then you'd be paying major fees. This new change on the other hand, is totally fair. Even CodeMonkey hasn't reached the install cap despite his success and marketing. The amount of money you make vs the fees after the proposed changes is definitely fair, my only worry regarding all this is how quickly and aggressively the previous changes were sprung upon as all.

[@CarmenXero]

Could always switch to Unreal where most of these problems are already solved, I mean you either wait for this to come out or you learn Unreal in the mean time.

[@Haipeer]

@@hamzahgamedev Well, you don't pay until you hit that threshold, so no worries. Also, for performance - there's only two things - 1. Use URP, and 2. Move your static objects in the world into ECS. This will save you loads of performance.

[@sealsharp]

Looking forward to CoreCRL, but that's a bit longer down the road. But DOTS in standard systems is nice as well, hope they capitalize on that by improving things like animations and navmesh. To be honest, my hopes are not that high, Unity had a tendency to keep things "semi working" for years even before the layoffs.

[@jtlewis81]

Build profiles sounds very interesting since I released a game last year on Steam and Google Play. I wound up making 2 separate projects just because it was easier to keep track of which control scheme I was putting into which build. The main reason for this was a bug with the version of Unity I was using where the up/down axis control was flipped for positive/negative. It was a weird bug, and I kept forgetting to switch it around when I would switch between the PC and Android builds.

One of the big problem with Unity 6 is that the other plugins are not ready so many scripts from plugins as Google Play Games for example will have alot of errors. I hope they catch up.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

I-ve long wanted to make a video doing an overview but haven-t been able to do it yet, basically it's a collection of relatively simple utilities so by browsing the source code you should be able to easily understand what it all does. The ones I use most often are FunctionTimer to trigger an action after some time, FunctionUpdater to run logic on every update without having to create a game object, and a bunch of the helper functions inside the UtilsClass for things like calculating angle from Vector or getting the mouse 2D position.

[@guardian3472]

Unity made up for these past few years this year. Really exciting to use Unity 6 for my Projects! Thanks, Code Monkey you are best like Always

[@Haipeer]

It's not always a good advice to stick to LTS version Code Monkey. From my experience It's basically a dice roll whenever deciding on a Unity Version. Currently ECS is pretty much unsable on LTS version, has lots of major bugs, including a bug that I believe you had in one of your videos - not being able to click on entities in playmode to select them, among many others. We've decided to start making our DOTS multiplayer project on beta version, and most of these issues are resolved there.

Sir, now back to the "Real question", should we trust unity not to change runtime fees again? what they have announced thus far is very promising and competes even with unreal engine (to a certain point). are we going to see another tarkov/rust? or there will be more of Road to Vostok, for those who dont understand what i mean: Road to Vostok was supposed to be made with unity, ended up being remade with godot 3.5, and launched a open beta!

[@ivanonlyone7160]

Personally for me Unity as a tool is far more advanced than Godot. But I don't really expect to earn 200k from my game anually lol, so it's not really a big deal for me. Also Unity got kicked in the gut, so they will be more careful with such insane runtime fee changes. Road to Vostok shot itself in the foot, because Godot is more limited than Unity, has worse performance and 3D capabilities, it graphically looks better in Unity than in Godot, they should've spent these 400h porting on developing the game itself

[@taash32]

Anyone who has used HDRP knows its far superior than built-in. Pretty sure the only people who think its unusable are people who download broken assets and dont know how to fix them for HDRP. Either way pretty much anything in the asset store, regardless of the render pipeline, is not usable in a serious game. The asset store is a trap. Anyways, that being said, HDRP is extremely nice to use and I could never imagine going back to built in. Everything is going forward is built for HDRP as a default and maybe later ported for other pipelines.

Another cause is that a large portion of the people saying to use BIRP are people who haven't actually released games recently. That data is from games known to be in production. Unfortunately a lot of assets are still developed for the BIRP that then require conversion, especially when people use custom shaders.

Interesting. Still about the AI stuff it’s rather vague. And here is the mistake Unity has done before. Show some info but just part of the picture. With little clear real word examples. And real release dates. Whole unreal had a more grounded approach where when they announce things it seems more production ready and tied to real world examples. Sure it’s nice with the copilot. But as some of this is built on other open tech. It feels more like a plugin. Or asset store stuff than code integrated features. Like unreal is showcasing real wow opener. And at the same time show the core battle proven workflows now being moved into unreal where one can model. Texture and rig in one unified package. Still about the copilot for smaller projects and more beginners it seems as an awesome feature :)

Tbh i wish unity wouldnt tell us about ideas on paper. Only stuff they had made head way on and showed viable worth. Because we have had too many half done and abandoned or at least seemingly abandoned ideas.

[@litjellyfish]

@@lizkimber yes and let’s be fair. Many of new features and systems in Unity was implemented so so pipeline wise. And either abandon for lack of resources. Or abandoned as the desire really never worked well and was adopted by the users. A bit like with 3dsmax where they bought systems or plugins and interested it as their take on what other software had. It was just a cheap inferior version of it. This create bot just a bloated software but inconsistency and a shattered product. If one compare to many of the core systems in Unity that was good or even the one that was so so but was used by the majority. They were updated and improved. And is still used today. I talk more about the core of Unity around say 2014. Before too many new systems and features was started with promises. Today 10 year later many of those projects was never released or abandoned later in while still affecting the product. Which is sad as I felt that ten year ago Unity was so ahead of unreal when it came to easy of use. Prototyping etc etc.

@@v0ltdev it’s not presented in details. It’s more what the feature will be able to do but they don’t show HOW Yes but the tools for mentioned is so different. The level I so much higher for unreal. That is one of unity’s big issues. They have features bit either they don’t fully work or they don’t work so well / are slow / not very efficient. It’s this difference in qualify that off puts me. Ok yes you can do a lot with Unity. And it’s super good for quick prototyping. Still often it feels that the people making Unity have little real world game development experience compared to unreal where you know that they understand those real world large scale pipelines. And often innovent themselves with new production pipelines. I think Unity greatest feature was how they set up monobehavior and the core logic flow. / state. Nothing unique but at time it was nothing with this easy of use. But look at all the disasters with DOTS and their visual scripting. Projects that started ten year ago and still really have not delivered production proven yet.

@@litjellyfish they did show how the AI tools work last unite, what they did here at GDC is more or a recap of unite and a few extra stuff. It is true that some unity features feel a bit undercooked but its not like unreal is that much better, unreal just knows how to show the flashy stuff but there are a lot of undercooked features in it as well. The people working at unity are not the problem, it was more of a management problem, I know someone that works at unity and he told me a lot of them use the engine for personal stuff and there are a ton of talented people who want the best for unity, but they were always fucked sideways by management. But now with the management change the future for unity is looking really bright, unity really started cooking with unity 2023/6, the APV's and new light baker are very well made, the water system is amazing (unreal's is still experimental), RayTraceing works really well, the new editor overlays are really good, there are a ton of performance and QoL improvements and all this just from the tech release.

Personally, I've never understood the "remove Unity splash screen" demand, which appears to have existed even before the price change controversy. If I'm using Unity and enjoy the engine and am proud to use it, why the hell would I be ashamed to display that at the start of my game? It's not like it's a secret. And if I'm NOT happy with the engine or the company, then it's probably the case I'll be switching to a different engine that I DO enjoy; and it's not like I can erase the fact that any prior games were made using Unity. So this seems really strange to me, especially since other pieces of software all have splash screens. We're all just sort of used to that. And it's not like you're protecting kids by hiding it since the logo is completely neutral.

[@SolWayward]

Its a left over from the early days when the market was flooded with inexperienced devs using Unity to release trash. It caused people to associate unity with trash games. Its not a result of Unity being a bad engine, but a result of Unity being easy to use attracting bad devs. This stereo type of unity = bad game isn't as strong as it used to be but still holds true to the ignorant.

[@MarushiaDark316]

@@SolWayward That might have been true once upon a time but still doesn't make any sense in the current year since we now have titles like Hollow Knight, Cult of the Lamb, Oxygen Not Included, Yooka Laylee, and Cities: Skylines all made with Unity and those are top notch games.

[@flamart9703]

@@MarushiaDark316 It's because 2 seconds delay every time anyone will open my app/game, and 2 second for mobile game is a lot. In the era of youtube shorts and tiktoks, people are bored after 3 seconds. Also for clients project "made with Unity" doesn't look professional. I newer played these games, but did they use free version with logo splash screen? I feel like they used Plus version which was affordable and used by many indies to remove splash screen.

@@CodeMonkeyUnity Less bloat, less bugs, and less focus on selling assets. The physics, animation, input, lighting and terrain systems are too basic yet overly complex at the time and glitchy. I would also like more trust in the company. Their terms of service, privacy policy and payment model seem to be constantly fluctuating and demanding just a little more.

Ok but Unity said it was going to charge per install so no thank you, I don't want Unity they can keep their software and shove it.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Watch the end of the video where I cover that TLDR: It only applies after 1 million copies sold AND $1mil in revenue, so chances are it will never apply to you. And if it does, the fee caps out at 2.5% which is half of what Unreal charges

I'm SO happy to hear that CoreCLR and the language version update is on the roadmap. For instance first-class record support in Unity would be absolutely excellent!

[@NadjibBait]

And we'll finally get rid of Mono. .NET 8+ should be close to Mono + Burst performance wise.

[@torginus]

That's the only feature I care about, unfortunately there's no ETA on it (it's not coming with Unity 6) :(

[@Bongface.]

After flirting with Unreal and what they have going, Unity needs step its game up. Unity always had the documentation and asset store advantage but thats starting to change as well.

[@AHEK8]

Unreal is great but It has a very steep learning curve and even not runs in mid-end pc lags in my GTX 1650 super even though I have i7 9th gen processor

[@hrindr0243]

​@@AHEK8Absolutely, in my current company, they made a racing game in unreal engine with a team of 5 people in 1 year but it ended up belly-up on the performance side. Investors were about to put the funding but fortunately I managed to give them a Game with the unity asset store within a week. Luckily it saved the round and the whole team was fired and I went from being an intern to leading a team of 6 with a hefty bonus. Say what you want to say but where time is critical, you just can't beat unity.

[@hermes6910]

@@AHEK8 Just not true. Even though UE is heavier, it runs on a 10-year-old computer... Just don't expect to make heavy scenes, but it's the same with Unity. As for the learning curve, you could start with BP and have easier access than Unity's C#. Even Unreal's C++ looks more like C# than good old C++. The only real big point against Unreal is the documentation, which simply doesn't exist officially, unless you look at the source code yourself. And i'm not even talking about making multiplayer games, they are way more easier in Unreal.

[@WolfMobileDev]

@@hermes6910 I would say that alongside documentation lacking, the amount of resources for Unreal are also far less. It's still a big engine so you can find what you need most of the time.. but there always seems to be relevant information when I run into issue with Unity. I also think Unity makes packaging built project a lot easier than Unreal does, but admittedly it has been a few years since I've used Unreal.

[@Jlewismedia]

Agreed, it's not so much the graphics it's the leaps and bounds of innovation that Unreal demonstrates meanwhile Unity let's its corporate side run a muck.

[@PharmacyBrain]

Unity 6 preview is out now. Do you have any idea when it's going to officially release? I am ready to start a new game, but I sort of want the new license more than anything. It's going to be a 2D tile map single player game, so performance won't likely improve too much, but that personal license increase to 200k is tempting me to wait.

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

They have their Unite conference in September so I'm guessing it will be out at that point In terms of features the Preview version already has everything, so if your game is more than 6+ months away from release I would say yup you can use Unity 6 Preview, that's the main one that I'm going to start using from now on

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

Yeah I wish Muse had a free tier, they do have a 30 day free trial but a limited monthly free tier would be great. I think it's an excellent tool, especially for beginners, but being paid really limits things.

[@suicune2001]

Awesome! Sounds like a lot of good features are coming. And having the benefits of DOTS even for people like me who don't understand it sounds great. I've stayed away from AI for ethical reasons but if their AI stuff is ethically sourced then I'd try it out.

[@HeavySandvichGuy1]

I mean, you shouldn't stay back from AI. You can ask AI to help you with the code, or you can ask for an art that you can use for inspiration. Of course using AI art directly in the game/media is bad. But I don't see any issues when you use it as a reference

[@ironhell813]

I think it could be used on a parody situation, that way it’s at least legal from a us constitutional standpoint. Wouldn’t matter what it generated or how… That said it definitely shouldn’t be used outside this and should always defer to human talent first if you can….

[@nickromanek9444]

Great video! Would love to see a series where you create an RTS game Also, the VR Multiplayer template that's available in the LTS version is quite impressive, I'd definitely watch any content you put out on that, espeically if you could explain networked objects. So many things to look forward to with Unity!

[@krox477]

Lots of good improvements this time

[@NoTimeLeft_]

CodeMonkey did Unity say anything about the T.O.S. for Unity 6 after the debacle a few months back? If I remember correctly, Unity 2022 LTS is the last version that won't implement the new pricing scheme.

[@user-to7ds6sc3p]

Watch the Video. It will only affect Studios that makes 1 Million in revenue a year and have over one Million copies sold. Per game. And the max Runtime fee is 2.5% of revenue, getting lower the more you earn so you never pay more than 54k a month. A 2.5% cut for providing the engine, asset store, finshed games with guides and other ressources is not really worth mentioning if you consider that Steam takes 30% and Epic 12% of sales anyways.

[@Hobby_Technology]

No matter what, unless you have an F2P mobile game with less than $0.80 earned per user, the Unity pricing is still cheaper than Unreal's

[@CodeMonkeyUnity]

On the last update in that whole saga they mentioned how you can lock the TOS for the version that you're using. And yes Unity 2022 does not have the runtime fee regardless of copies sold.

[@BrunodeSouzaLino]

@@CodeMonkeyUnity Also, that's the last TOS where you don't give Unity permission to retroactively apply changes.
