Hey macOS Unity users, if you’re running into issues with the Unity Installer while trying out the version of macOS that Apple announced at WWDC today, you can fix the error by updating your version of Unity with the instructions below:
All versions of Unity available via the Unity Hub can be installed without issue. If you need the Download Assistant for offline installation, you can update via fixed versions of the installers. An updated 2017 installer can be found here, and an updated 2018 installer will be available later this week with the release of 2018.4.2. Previous versions of the installer will not be compatible with macOS Catalina.
We’re working to resolve the error and we’ll let you know here when everything is updated. Let us know if you’re having any issues in the meantime.
I also can’t import shaders, due to UnityShaderCompiler being 32-bit only. Seems like Unity 5 is basically incompatible with Catalina. Can we expect a fix @nickrapp or is Unity 5 going to become unsupported?
The Wav file import issue with 2017.4 LTS, we have identified the issue as being an issue with an FMOD Tool being 32bit which is not supported in MacOS 10.15. We will release a fix for 2017.4 LTS but we will not be releasing an update for 2018.1/2018.2 as these are unsupported releases. The issue doesn’t manifest in 2018.3+ and we will update the documentations etc… to represent the support matrix below.
I have upgraded to Catalina because I need to build for the upcoming iOS13 and Catalina.
I also have audio import problems - not only WAV but also OGG. We do not use FMOD. The editor crashes with the following message every time:
Any luck? I’m able to on my personal machine, but not my corporate machine…which is the one I need it on Same behavior behind the firewall, on VPN or just on my home network.
I don’t see anything too weird in the diagnostic report other than “Wakeups: 45001 wakeups over the last 69 seconds (655 wakeups per second average), exceeding limit of 150 wakeups per second over 300 seconds”. I’ve attached the diagnostic report just in case anyone else can see anything useful in it :).a
For what it’s worth, people with the same computer, on High Sierra have no issues.
When I try to download the installer instead of the hub, I get a different error, but the same log. It claims the drive I’m installing to can’t be written to. That’s a lie.
This would cause a bunch of errors when you try and reopen the project which version were you using as this was fixed in 2018.4.8+
As for the installer issue I was able to install android support via the latest version of the Unity Hub (2.2.1) on 2018.4.8 on the current public beta of Catalina with no issue. I also verified that if you use the UnityInstaller directly the installation works fine, but the pkg files do seem to run into the read only issue mentioned above. We shall look further into that.
Same problem here. Cannot install any version of unity in Catalina OS. “Unity can’t be installed on this disk. The contents of this disk can’t be changed”
Feels like Unity have to ask In a new way permission to install and those guys haven’t tested right now.
Same - I’m trying to install Unity 2019.2.5 on Catalina but Hub doesn’t have that version (not sure why?) and the installer on the download archive doesn’t work in OSX10.15, despite being from September, well after this post.
of 2017.4 that is
