I need this too, only for the water, for many years the default water tools in Unity has been very “basic”, i hope that the new SRP Unity system and new shaders change this.
Here’s the person that created the demo, I’ve heard that the demo is going to be released in the future but if you need it right now you should contact him.
I’m glad you liked the demo, looking to make the Git repo public asap but the crunch of 2018.1 release has kept me very busy so my ability to work on cleaning this up has come to a standstill right now. Hopefully won’t be long off, maybe next month but don’t quote me on that
I’m quoting you, but I’m not holding you to it.
We’re also really interested, because we’re pushing our rendering budget with the old pipeline right now, and since we use water in our projects, it would be interesting to see how this performs in VR if we dump our 4 million polygon boat in it.
i want this demo too…it’s very important for us to understand new LWRP
Really looking to get my hands on this demo, its almost a month lol ;);)
Haha, So I’m am busily working on it right now, we are going to be demoing it at Unite Berlin and @phil_lira and I will be giving a talk about getting started with LWRP.
The aim is then to clean the project up for a first release alongside 2018.2.
And trust me the wait is worth it, it’s already much better than a month ago, running faster and the code is getting much cleaner(which will make it more valuable to learn from/dig around in)
Looking forward to this as well. Love the water.
Any news on this?
Unity 2018.2 is out, now is this example project available?
I’m also wondering when it will be available. The presentation at Unite was great, only wish I took better notes. But that won’t matter once the demo is out
its almost a month now, 2018.2 was released on 2 july :(.
Please publish the project.
I dont mind delays at all, thats development life, but I do consider it somewhat poor form to just go quiet rather than provide an update about what is happening with this.
Hi,
Sorry for not responding about this and missing the date I first suggested.
A little insight to this since I think a lot of people are missing what this project actually is. This demo is created entirely by myself, this wasn’t part of my day job here at unity, I’m not on any of the demo/content teams we have so a lot of this was/is done in my spare time.
With LWRP being in the state it is and our major push now to stabilise it, this is now taking up all of my time as I am busy making sure we have proper coverage of everything and that we start to actually have documentation on it as releasing a demo is useful to learn how to do some specific stuff but without any documentation making sense of anything in that demo, it will probably be just as hard as diving into the code without a demo.
In saying this, I’m at a point where I just need to make the git public, I’m planning on merging in a submodule to make life easier for people grabbing it(no need to clone if you just want to grab the zip) and also making it work with the packages available rather than cloned git repos. One huge issue I am facing with it right now is the delayed 18.3 Beta which is frustrating as I converted some of the water rendering over to the much better custom pass rendering system that we have recently added into LWRP, this package now is only available in 18.3 so this leaves me in a tricky situation.
So I can make it public right now and everyone will have access to it, will it work, I’m not sure, I don’t have time to test it in 2018.2 right now(the preview nature of LWRP means we move on pretty fast internally), but in theory it would work, again this is not an official Unity demo project thus support for it will be limited, and at the end of the day it’s a test project to help me verify certain parts of LWRP are working correctly.
Again sorry for not responding here earlier, life has just been a little hectic here lately
Cheers,
Andre
P.S. I’ll distract you with this if you didn’t see it at Unite, because you know, chairs and all…
Thanks so much for the update, and I would like to apologise for moaning, I must have been feeling grumpy that day!
Anyway clearly the 18.3 beta delay isnt your fault, and personally I would rather you waited and released it whenever that beta lands. I hope it hasnt been delayed for too much longer, but either way I’m sure time will fly by.
Cheers
2018.3 betas have been delayed? Is there new estimate when they are targeted to get out? Like is it still happening this month?
It is still planned to come out this month, but I do feel like this has been the most delayed Beta we have had in a while normally we are pretty good at getting it out the door as we release the previous version, this time it wasn’t the case.
It may be nothing to do with the cause of delay (I have no way of knowing) but 2018.3 does sound like it will have rather a lot of new stuff in it so I’m not that shocked that its been subject to delay.
