Hi, I am developing an application with Hololens.
I finished my first step on the application, and want to keep the first version while developing the second one.
I changed the application name, but the application is still overwritten whenever I do debug with visual studio.
Can anyone help me do this?
Just zip up the entire project directory and store that as the old version. Or you can simply copy the entire folder and rename it like MyGame_old. To roll back you just unzip the folder or rename it back.
To fork into two versions is the same, just copy entire project folder and give it new name then in unity project chooser choose which folder you want to open, new or old.
The name of the project folder is already different, and so is the product name. When they are deployed, the application name is different, but there are still overwritten. Is there any application identifier for Hololens UWP application?
I encountered this problem today. To fix it, I found that there are other places in the settings where names needed to be changed from the old to new project name. I am not sure which of the names would separate the programs. It is probably the “Package name”. I tried the “Product Name” first, so I know that’s not it, but I changed all the rest at one time.
To find to these settings: Edit > Project Settings > Player
Then in the Inspector window, at the top change “Product Name” to your new name.
Then under “Icon” tab find “Short name” and change to your new name.
Then under “Publishing Settings” tab find “Package name” and “Description”. Change both to your new name.
