New to Unity - am I right in thinking the earlier Island, Lerpz and FPS sample projects will not work without some reworking for Unity 3?
I’d like to work through the tutorials - can I still do this with the new version of Unity, or do I need Unity 2.6 for that?
Thanks.
The island one especially will not work as part of the shaders will be totally broken after auto covnersion
lerpz and fps should generally work, they don’t do anything complex
Thanks - I’ll try the fps one and see if ‘generally’ is something I can handle 
If I can I’ll post any necessary steps for other novices. Maybe it’s a useful exercise…
To answer my own question, the FPS project works (at least the completed one does). There are a couple of errors which the upgrade process takes care of automatically. The Island demo complains about the TerrainLightMapper, but works ok if you comment out a couple of lines that call this. Lerpz, the 2D platformer and the 3d shooter all work ok. I haven’t tried the Car tutorial.
So if anyone’s holding back from trying the tutorials in Unity 3 - no need 
the underwater effect among other things won’t work on the island demo either, thats why I wouldn’t recommend to go with it unless you have some solid knowledge on the shader stuff in U2 and U3 or just don’t have pro
Ah thank you - I’ve just looked at it and it’s ok. The missing effects don’t seem to interfere with the basic running.
Thats right, if you don’t own Pro the problems will likely not appear actually as the hand created shaders are those things that don’t survive the conversion
