Hi,
My University has just started using Unity for one of it’s game classes. We have had great success and need some examples of the games created to go through accreditation. The question is, can we anonymize the Unity projects to get rid of any identifying information from them?
I am asking because I do not know if there are any settings or watermarks that can be tied back to the students.
Any information would be much appreciated, thanks!
Mike
To sum up what has already been said in the comments above:
I don’t know of any identifing information stored in Unity project files beside the underlying filesystem (creator of the files, …). Filesystem related information usually is stripped when you package the project into an archive (zip / rar / …). However the archive file itself of course also has a creator…
You didn’t really state what exact concerns you want to cover. Any information in scripts (comments written by the students) will of course remain. I guess there are tools out there to manually strip all comments, but that’s usually not a good idea since comments might have an important use to understand the code.
Of course if you build the project there are no comments anymore. However, afaik a Unity build contains the license information which has been used to create build. I don’t think it’s possible (but if, it’s most likely not allowed) to remove such information.
