Together with this Unite Now session we are also hosting a Q&A here in this thread to answer as many of your questions as possible.


A team of product experts from across Unity will be available starting after the session. Our Community team will continue to field questions for the next two days to foster an ongoing discussion with the community. Please feel free to ask your questions in this thread.


Some basic rules

• The thread will open up for questions on Thu, April 16 @ 1pm PST.
  
  
  
• Don’t bundle multiple unrelated questions in one reply. One question/topic per reply.
  
  
  
• Only questions related to the topics of the roadmap session are permitted.
  
  
  
• All questions will be fielded by our Community Managers (@LeonhardP and @AskCarol)
  • Replies will have to be approved by the moderators to show up in the thread.
    
    
    
  • Once approved, the questions will be forwarded to the relevant experts.

We really look forward to hearing from the community.

Thank you!

 

Hi there, I have no direct clever/challenging questions, sorry. At the moment barely dipping my toes into Unity. But the presentation was very informative, inspirational and entertaining and had a nice flow to it. The demo island looks gorgeous. The quick bread & butter application of effects drive it home, camera object and animation/timeline was a neat trick i expected would take a lot of C# programming, nice!

There is a small question: I was looking for an asset to change export/import models.obj/anything on the fly a little while back, but i see i can also do small edits with ProBuilder without leaving Unity. What was the asset though, might i ask used to export the model to Maya? WRP FBX Exporter? Or, where can i find it? Cheers!

 

@AskCarol This video has a bug. When I visit the page, first, it seems it starts, then after a couple of seconds it fails. See screenshots.
(Piggybacking on this: please, fix the login as well. I'm logged in on the Unity sites, but Unite Now does not recognize it, probably the SSO system does not allow the resources.unity.com domain or something. So I'm asked the two feet long questionnaire all the time with my company and stuff, it is very annoying.)

 

Thanks for flagging! I'm investigating immediately.

 

Thanks! After 5-7 attempts (in and out of that page, getting the Hub item not found message), it seems playing, finally.
But still, something was or still is wrong.

 

Any chance of adding support for Blender and other 3D modeling software.
