So today i downloaded unity…I clicked new project and 2 folders appeared is that alll i need to make the game? if not what do i need and how do i get it…
all i want right now is to be able to walk around and hold an object
you need quite a bit more then those 2 folders. it also depends on what kind of view you want. 1st person or 3rd person. 3rd person will need more because youll need to set up animations and program them in. if you do first person you just need to use the 1st person character controller prefab thats included in the standard assets. with this you can just drop it in the scene and run around with the arrows/mouse. if you want to pick up objects youll have to write your own scripts for that
Reading the manual and the scripting reference would be a good start. Yeah really, there’s no way around it. If you know Java I would recommend using C#.
