- [Voiceover] Hi, I'm Michael House, and welcome to Advanced Unity 3D Game Programming. In this course, we'll look at how to bring our game to life using the C# programming language in Unity Scripts. I'll start by showing you how to create basic scripts and use the debugger. Then we'll create a custom pre-fab system to allow end-users to mod your game. Next, we'll create procedurally generated Voxel Terrain landscapes. Finally, I'll show you how to implement a number of common game development algorithms in Unity and techniques for optimizing your game. We'll be covering all of these features plus plenty of other tools and techniques.
Now let's get started with Advance Unity 3D Game Programming.
Q: In the Chapter 3 file EntityLoader.cs, I get an error: DirectoryNotFoundException: Directory 'Assets\' not found. Removing the backslash after 'Assets' fixes it, but then I run into a different error. How do I fix this?
Q: What version of Unity does this course cover?
A: This course requires Unity 4.5.5. The newer versions of Unity have done away with the GUI system used in this course, so the interfaces included for many of the scenes will not work with 4.6 and higher. You can download Unity 4.5.5 at http://unity3d.com/get-unity/download/archive.
Q: The game object in the first chapter's Mouse Input Raycasting sample doesn't appear to follow the mouse. What's wrong?
A: Please enable the Box Collider component (by activating the checkbox next to the component name) on the game object. This is not explicitly mentioned in the video, but it will ensure the raycasts collide with the game object.
