Hi linux devs! There hasn’t been any word it seems for a while, hoping Unity didn’t just stop working on the Linux edition! I’m using it to build a Game, and I think a lot of others are too! Hoping there will be more bug fixes and updates soon! 🙂

Agreed. I hope they plan to push another build out.

Hope she’ll get around to it.
All the basic things are already working so well, just a small number of showstoppers left 🙂

Good to know that things are moving forward, but Linux editor is still very sluggish when working with large projects ( \>5gb). Waiting for that speed improvements )

Integrating the changes from 5.2 has been painful as expected, but also in some additional unexpected ways.
We’re still working toward having a shippable build soon™

Looking forward to it! Thank you for the hard work on the Linux build 🙂

I really want 5.2 for the new Tanks! project/tutorial by Unity on Youtube… 😕

Thanks for the update @Tak . I’m looking forward to getting the latest Unity version up and running. I recently made the switch to Linux (Elementary OS) on my brand new ThinkPad, and Unity is running quite well—it starts up fast! I’m glad to now be able to do most of my work without booting into Windows.
Now if someone could only convince Adobe to port Photoshop to Linux…Gimp still feels so alien.

@jwinn , Gimp is outdated… The new thing is “Krita”. It’s a very very well made ‘Photoshop’ style program, and gets updated fairly often as I’ve seen. 🙂

So far my experience has been pretty darn good with the Linux Editor. There are some bugs of course, but things aren’t too bad actually.
Thanks so much for your work on it!
Y’all are really close, so don’t hesitate to update the beta sooner rather than later. 🙂

Is there a time estimation as to when the next build will arrive? It is itching in my fingers 😉

Agreed, Krita is a very nice professional grade program with some essential texturing features that Photoshop doesn’t even have but should have had years ago. Namely, wrap around mode.

Wrap Mode is a HUGE feature, that should have been in Photoshop ages ago (as people have requested)… It’s as simple as pressing “w”, and seeing it tiled, and painting anywhere and you can see how it repeats… So nice!
