I guess know that I understand the workflow (exporting out of unity then Taking several minutes of watching the ddms progress bar ever so slowly work its magic. It was a huge apk file though -the largest I've ever compiled(!), The apk compiles and ADBs over to my android device (where it runs)īut doesn't seem to respond to touch input. It is also called the 'Nightmare' project (which in my mind it has been - a total nightmare).

If you have a casual interest in using Unity just know to set a lot of time if you have a slow internet connection.Īnother several hours down the drain but I manage to compile the 4.6 version of the 'survival shooter' android unity sample project. I have other 3d software like Maya installed and no other software on my computer runs so slow like this. It runs so slow on the Mac though I try to move something and it takes 7 minutes just to update the view window after trying to drag something in the sample project.Įven under Windows using an overclocked core i7 CPU with 32GB of ram and the highest end nVidia video card it's so sloooowwww. The Mac install was just as bad and I had to use an old 4.2 version because my mac mini is still using Snow Leopard (and doesn't have the hardware requirements to go any further). I made the mistake of clicking on it and now it's been showing this 'Hold on' dialog box for at least 5 hours. Then I take the useless survey and then it comes up with a window with one link for an example project. I already had VisualStudio.Net installed, but it re-downloaded and installed another copy.

Literally - 16 hours to download the the Unity editor package to Windows.

Downloading and installing Unity takes a whole day.
