Unity first lesson

Yeah yeah final exams are over!!!

A brief introduction to unity

1. What is it?A development engine for creating games and three interactive content (developed by unity technologies)
2. What can I do?2D, 3D game development, AR/VR development
3. The history of unity?Three young people who love games in Copenhagen, Denmark decided to develop a convenient game development engine to help young people who love games realize their dream of creating games!!!The well-known Monument Valley and Temple Run are developed with unity3D
4. What platforms does unity support?Both Android and Apple PC (seems to be 26 platforms) are popular in the market due to their cross-platform nature and ease of use
5. About the unity version?The author uses 2017.3.1f1 and 2018.4.30f1. These two versions should be relatively stable (at least there is no problem yet). It is recommended to download a unity hub first, so that using multiple versions of unity at the same time will not have any problems.Question
6. About scripting languages?Generally use C#
7. About the installation: I remember that I need to select some components during installation, which can be based on my own development content and development platform.For example Android Build Support.Remember not to put it on the C drive!!!
8. About the hardware question: If it is a notebook, it is better to use an i7 or R7 to be more mobile.Of course, if you are a beginner, i5 should also work
   

unity learning resources recommended

• The first is unity official website, which has some videos, developer community, etc.

• Component Reference: User Manual This is really important!

• Script API: Some notes on scripting

• Recommendations about some video courses:
  When I first started self-study, I really looked for resources all over the Internet. Here are a few video courses recommended.(Because I mainly study the development of unity+vuforia on Android, I can only recommend courses in this area. Friends who want to use other plugins can ignore this)

  • SIKI Academy AR Tutorial
  • A ​​simple AR program based on recognition map
  • PokemonGo-LBS AR project combat
    I haven't tried this yet, friends who want to play can join us in winter vacationLearn to duck!!!I was so excited to cry when I found this tutorial
    

Then Jianshu and Zhihu Baidu have many tutorials on installation and configuration environment that are very suitable for beginners, so I won't post them here

Some basic introduction to the unity interface

• Layout: set the basic layout of unity

• Edit skin shades: edit-preferences-editor skin

• Find the unity manual in help A useful manual!

• scene state used to edit the game game trial run assets store (buy some model UI controls, etc.)
  Note that the game view can be adjusted as shown below
  
  
  How to view some runtime data?
  

• hierarchy view: used to display all game objects in the current scene
  
  Resources folder and console
  
  Some resources can be imported into these folders
  The console can be used to display debugging information and running error information in the program

• Ispector is used to display the properties of the currently selected game object
  transform refers to the coordinate position

Things to know before doing a project

• In fact, each game is composed of many scenes, and you can use buttons to jump between scenes
• I personally think that the setting of parallel light is very important, that is, the effect of adjusting the light on the atmosphere of the scene (of course, it can also be adjusted in the modeling software)
• Websites to find resources and where to find open source projects: Aigei.com or the official resource store introduced at the beginning, open source projectsYou can go to github (this chicken has not learned yet)
• The other is Baidu!!!What can't be found on Baidu, or the wrong information can also be searched in Baidu (of course, it is better if you can use google)
