Free Live Online Training from Unity Technologies

Unity Technologies presents free live online training.

There are some great advantages of this new set up:

  • No preregistration is required. Simply turn up and participate.
  • No class size limits. We can broadcast to everyone who wants to participate.
  • No time zone confusion. Each class has it’s own countdown timer based on UTC.
  • Calendar Events. Buttons will save a session to your calendar using google calendar or ical events.
  • Archived Class Sessions. If there is a class you couldn’t participate in live, you can review it from the archive.

The live page will show the next class in the header and a list of all upcoming classes in the main body of the page. Simply follow the link for details about that class.

The live page will show the next class in the header and a list of all upcoming classes in the main body of the page.

These are live classes and we expect and encourage our participants to interact and ask questions of presenter just like any live class.

These classes will be recorded and are saved in the archive tab. If there is a class you couldn’t participate in live, you can review it from the archive.

For a full listing of our current classes please visit the Live Training Page for more information.

“Save the date” with a google calendar or ical event and: See you in class!

You simply need to go to the class page while the class is running, sit back, relax and learn.

It is probably a good idea to arrive at the page early enough to get settled and sign into the chat roll so you can ask questions and comment on the content. Don’t forget that this is a live class and you should feel free to participate if you want to by using the chat roll interface.

See you in class!

I’ve loved it. Have been following them for a while now. Most are a great review ,but I learn at least one new thing in each video.

NutellaDaddy! Thanks for the feedback. We are trying to get as many fun, but educational, sessions up as possible.

I found the 2D Character Controller Session by search couple of days ago and loved it. Have 4 handwritten Pages of notes. Really Awesome!

Now I found this… What the heck… Over 20 Sessions already? Insane. That is exceeding any expectations I had in terms of learning material for Unity.
This will get me going in no time!

Thank you Unity Team for making this possible!

If the previous class-sessions can be made available somehow it would help a lot…Missed them :frowning:

And am a beginner as well, so little bit of guidance from the admins would’ve helped a lot

They are available under the “archive” tab on this page:

Thank you a lot! This what differentiate unity than other! You care about us! Giving us free live classes wow!

All i want to say is thank you a lot! Though some classes I won’t be attending because of timing :frowning:

Anyway thanks a lot again :smile:

Thanks! I’m glad you like it and find it useful.

Let us know what times (and what time zone - GMT/UTC is best) that you can take a class for an hour or so.

We’ll see if we can fit a class in that time.

Can you please upload your latest live training! i missed it due to timing and i want to really watch it :smile: thanks!

Yes, I will asap. There is a technical glitch with the audio recording that I need to fix before I upload it.

:smile: Will definitely check this out.

The episode is up. We’ll do Part 2 tonight.

I tried my best to remove the audio issues, but it still feels like there is a bowl of rice crispies under the mic. My apologies!

If there are any topics or subjects you want covered, please let us know!

About Social API would be nice ( Unity - Scripting API: Social )

I’d like to make simple global highscore system, currently using/testing this instead:

(for android)

**or,

Setting up pixel perfect camera for multiple resolutions…(2D sprites)

What about server side programming? There’s not a lot of info about it…

Hey Adam,
Thanks for doing great videos, just a question. In 2d Catch Game Training Lesson(Pt1), you have mentioned that all assets will be uploaded to the asset store and the videos to Live training archive, but unfortunately the assets is not in the asset store. Do we need to look for some assetes ourself?

We are preparing the assets for the Asset Store as we speak. There has been, if not a change of plan, an addition to the plan, where we will package up a number of 2D assets, including the ones from Hat Trick, the Fun Catch Game! - and coordinating this has taken more time than expected.

The availability is “imminent”, so just a little more patience!

I’ll post here when they are ready.
