What’s new in Unity iPhone 1.0.1

w00t! :smile:

Yea!

.m4a and .mp3 support is good! Was .aac left out because it is more processor-intensive?

That’s a great deal for the store!

Congrats with the release, right on time for the loads of christmas iphone apps :smile:.

Cool, sounds like a great opportunity to drop everything, buy Unity, and enter uDevGames, and win. :slight_smile:

The extension .m4a is one of the extensions for AAC – the one the iTunes uses. :slight_smile:

Cheers,

So it is! I’ve done listening tests, and preferred AAC over mp3, but all of the music I keep is in Apple Lossless format, which carries the .m4a extension. I completely forgot the detail you pointed out.

I’ve already played with audio a little bit in 1.01. I’m much more of a happy camper now.

Two great news in one day :slight_smile:

Sure my Development Account won’t like it as much as I do but count me definitely in as one of those who will fully upgrade the “indie stuff” to Pro on Unity as well as the iPhone. Just have to wait for a pending payment and I’m in :slight_smile:
Both gave me great pleasures and financed their upgrades themself again.

Great job there and thank you for proofing that I’m a fool on some assumptions, but a happy fool :smile:

dreamora - I’m with you. I was planning on upgrading to Unity Pro and iPhone Advanced at some point in the future. A 20% discount is enough to get me to do it now.

Awesome gang, we’re glad that the rebate coupon is sufficient encouragement to get you on board with those upgrades. Happy Happy, Joy Joy. :slight_smile:

Damn! I just updated to Unity Pro yesterday. :cry:

Unfortunately that sort of thing happens, no matter when we put a rebate coupon out there there will always be some folks that just bought a license. I’m sorry that you fall into that category and hope that you’re still happy with the upgrade to Pro as it’s still the same awesome-kick ass tool it’s always been. :smile:

I know Tom, in the good side, I must to say I received a couple of interesting job offers recently, so I’m happy to have Unity Pro now. :smile:

I am now the proud owner of Unity Pro and iPhone Advanced! Thanks for the 20%!

Can the end of the year discount be combined with other discounts?

Hello,

i have Unity Indie license and two days ago i have upgraded to iPhone Basic.
Now i would like to upgrade to Unity Pro, Asset Server and iPhone Advanced.

Can i use 20% discounts for all three upgrades?

In the Store you could add the upgrade path for situations like mine.
( in fact if i select “upgrade to Unity Pro”, i can chose asset server but not “iPhone Advanced Upgrade from iPhone Basic”)
For now it’s not a problem if i had upgrade Unity Pro( with asset server) and iPhone advanced separately with the 20% discount for both.

Thank you

Andrea

This one made me smile.

Fantastic demo, thanks, beautiful to watch!

that’s great - the mouse shake is a nice touch.

happy holidays : )

Missed it too. It’s the first one i know where the flakes/logos (nice idea) can break out of the glass. ;O) Honestly i don’t like the colours in the scene but the tune is catchy.

you can and the path already exists :slight_smile:

just take Unity Pro upgrade + asset server + iphone advanced

then on the next page enter your Unity Indie + iphone basic key and you will get the iphone basic upgrade reduction as well :slight_smile:

I’m going to do the exact same thing actually
