Currently there is a Unity multi-day conference in Copenhagen called Unite. One guy blogged about some announcements:
- next Editor release will run on Windows too
- one day Linux/Unix will be supported, too. There is a cooperation with Novell
- iPhone add-on now available
- FusionFall, a MMO project for CartoonNetwork, was intended to use GameBryo but now uses Unity for the client
- new features that were added to the MMO project will be included
- the Editor was completely rewritten in C# and comes now with docking panes, tabs and more scriptable interfaces
- 3d snapping inside viewports
Last year I hoped that they would release the PC-Editor this year – i.e. at this conference. With all the new platforms (iPhone and Wii) they added I got doubts. Thus it's great to hear that it's not sooo far away anymore … The windows release will certainly boost them once more.
Interesting times ahead… 🙂
Yahoo! I've been waiting a long time for this! I've been so fed up with Virtools licensing/policies and eyeing Unity3D for a while. This may be just the ticket to pull me back into interactive 3D 🙂
Very interesting indeed ! Wonder what this will do to virtools' marketshare. Thanks for the heads up.
I'm using Unity for 6 months now, and I can guaranty that I never saw such a exellent software : powerfull, fast, fast to learn, very well architectured, good documentation, excellent support & community ! I'm an happy customer.
Tnx for this news!
Hey Guys! I never did do that SwapMeet post, but we've been really happy with Unity over the last year (both the tech and the company). If anyone has questions about Unity, especially as it relates to Virtools, feel free to drop me a line.
