Any news on Screen Saver publishing option for Unity?

Hi guys,

I tracked down an old forum post regarding this, but need more information about current Unity uses and current platforms.

Has anyone managed a commercial PC/Mac screensaver using Unity ?

Thanks,

Hi,
theoretically you just could rename any .exe windows executable into .scr and put it into c:/windows/system32 folder to get it listed inside the screensaver selection.

I just tested it with a Unity Standalone , but sadly while testing the program could not find its corresponding “filename_data” folder anymore after renaming it to .scr … hm.

On OSX I have no idea.

@oxl - Try renaming the data folder to “DATA”. Haven’t tried this myself, but that’s an alternate data file name that works for stand alones.

@bigkahuna : I tried it, but it seems not to work anyway. It’s still looking for the Clouds_Data Folder, though its definitely there.

I would be very interested in knowing the details of how to create a screen saver out of unity.
