I am not a software wizard nor have I ever used or attempted to use anything like this so my questions may be kinda dumb - sorry?
I have downloaded and installed the latest version of Free Unity.
When I start the proggy and choose new project etc I do not get a wiremesh screen but a perfectly plain one - how do I get the wiremesh?
I started a project following tutorials and then I noticed that I do not have a mouse controller option anywhere. Is this normal (I have rollball; pads; joystick(?) but no mouse?
I am certain I followed instructions but when I placed an object in the middle of the screen and took it slightly off the ground then went to game I could not control in any fashion (this is when I saw I had no mouse controller in the far right hand screen). All I got was a notice about a ‘null object’ and my Y axis shot off the screen at great speed.
Are you talking about the grid? If so, try clicking the little button above the scene view that has something that looks like a mountain range on it.
What do you mean by not having a mouse controller option? What’s a ‘mouse controller’?
It’s hard to say without seeing your project. The ‘null object’ error should provide file and line info that you can use to narrow down the source of the problem. Also, what do you mean by the y axis shooting off the screen?
