Hey guys/gals first off let me say thank you for checking out this thread.
Now a lot of you might be wondering what in the world Codex-It is. (Which is currently in Development for the Asset Store).
Codex-It was a nifty idea I came up with because like a lot of other people, I am always re-using the same assets (Mainly Scripts and terrain textures, etc), and I got tired of searching project after project to find everything and usually end up re-making it all over again.
So the big million dollar question, what is it?
Codex-It creates a local repository like folder system into a destination of your choice(Either a pre-created folder system or a blank empty folder system for you to start building the way you like). But that’s not what makes this unique, Codex-It takes it to the next level and lets you auto-sync everything you ever make into any project you ever made/make so long as the editor extension is placed into your project. However there is only one rule to follow, the assets you want to auto-sync across any project (must - be inside the repository folder) that way you can push and pull the Assets when needed from any project. (There is a Repository Folder in every Unity Project when either creating or loading a Repository).
But wait - there’s even more! Codex-It also allows of Zip Compression of your repository structure so you can always make backups when you need too with the click of a button! PLUS - FTP Upload support soon!
(I MAY) Include GitHub upload (if this is possible within Unity).
Please enjoy the video, and please if you have any questions, comments or even concerns please speak upon them here.
Thank you, I hope you enjoy the brief video.
Here is a brief video explaining and showing exactly what I’ve done so far. Dev Video # 1
@N1warhead_1 This is good stuff. GitHub integration is a good thing. I have had to use GitHub for some contracts and it is a hassle every time… and nobody wanted to pay me for the time taken to follow their procedures. That is fine if it takes a few minutes but I have effed around with some folks and it took more than a day to get the settings and security straightened out before I could access the repositories.
Dang that sucks man, well i sure hope i can get that feature built into this, (just not sure how good unity is at WWW class or anything else that Sends and receives data over net. Im sure ill figure something out, Just may take some time.
That is technically true! Thanks for mentioning that.
I forget there are Git’s all over the place, but I only (ever) hear about GitHub - I guess that’s the most popular version I suppose.
Any features y’all would like to see implemented into Codex-It?
It’s getting close to Initial Release version and if there is any more features I can put into this before submitting to Asset Store - please let me know what all you all would like to see in Codex-It. Because right now I’m just bug tracking and adding it tiny features I think make this more complete.
(GIT SUPPORT) - WILL BE PUSHED BACK. Reason - I have never used Git before, so I have to figure out how it all works, etc. So I want to make sure I know exactly what I am doing when I go to develop it into Codex-It (If it’s possible). Unless I have a major breakthrough and finally get GitUploading to work, it will be on hold. (I will be attempting to get it to work periodically). But not my main focus as of this moment.
FTP Menu is now accessed through the MAIN window, as well as Support. Which lets you just hit the Copy button so you can get to (this page) or get to my e-mail without having to type it.
The big bold white text is added to the image so you know what each window is.
Development Video #3 published on first post.
(Video cropping is correct this time)…
And please let me know if there are (ANY) features you’d like to see me add into this, because once I’m done fixing bugs, etc I will be submitting to Asset Store, and if there’s anything else you’d like to see in Codex-It please say something.
Looking for a couple testers to test Codex-It before I submit to Asset Store.
If you are interested please let me know and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
Looking for 2 testers to test over the weekend before submitting to Asset Store.
Testers will receive a voucher upon Asset Store acceptance (if accepted obviously).
