Unity3D 2.0 is announced to be released this summer. Misterion once told me, that in his tests he found Unity to be much slower than Virtools. Looks like we need to test again:
(…) Across the board, you can expect a doubling in the frame-rate from previous versions, and greatly increased stability on the oldest of old graphics card drivers. (…)
And some other stuff Virtool users want (partially for ages):
- GUI System
- Terrain Engine
- Solid Outdoor Shadowing (at least that's the impression one gets from the screenshot)
Also nice: Networking/Multiplayer without additional costs. What is Virtools 4.x is going to have new under it's hood … ?
I think with 2.0 i need to review my things about Unity 🙂 I look at iterview with Nicholas Francis and after that i read many of topics from they forum 🙂 Then win32 development tool would be released i `m going to Unity 🙂 p.s. now i have no any access to any Mac PC so i can`t make new test with 2.0.
