Creating tile in Unity 2019

Hi…
I just start to learn Unity (really newbie), so I just start following step-by-step tutorial.
The problem happened when any instruction to create “Tile”, because the menu not available.
I don’t know which version of Unity the tutorial used, but I just installed Unity ver. 2019.2.17f1.

Any body can help me, where can I find the “Create > Tile” menu is?

Thanks a lot.

Well if you don’t have a Tile asset available in menu, do you have Tilemap?

If not, you most likely have to just install the Tilemap package from package manager.

Tilemap used to be part of the default install, but not in later versions of Unity (2019.x ->).

See:

Appreciate for your response. But there’s no option of Tilemap package in package manager as shown below.

I just found, that it’s in “Built-in package” already. But the menu is not appear.

Check that you see Tilemap in Package Manager’s “In Project” view mode.

If not, you could try also disabling and enabling Tilemap package, although I have no idea if it would make any difference.

I don’t use 2019, so I’m running out of ideas, maybe someone else can help you.

Anyway, when Tilemap packages is installed properly, you should see create Tile asset below “Sprites” (your OP screen capture) in your Create menu.

Uh oh, it looks like your package manager does not pick up the 2D Tilemap Editor package somehow?

I am not sure why that is the case unfortunately, but if you have any special conditions set for your set up, such as restricting internet access for the Unity Editor, that would be helpful to know!

As the 2D Tilemap Editor package comes with the Unity Editor installation, in your project, could you add the following line to the “Packages/manifest.json” file under the “dependencies” block, and see it that helps?

    "com.unity.2d.tilemap": "1.0.0",

The comma at the end of the line above may not be needed if it is the last entry of the dependencies block.
