Question regarding development

Unity Engine

Hi all, new to unity and the community. I have a question regarding development for an iPhone app.

While I am at work I have easier access to a Windows based machine and I was wondering what is possibility of using Unity on the Windows based machine and then using Unity iPhone for the final touches of the project. Is this possible? Should I not even consider doing something like this?

I know there are certain things that Unity iPhone can’t take advantage of, so I am assuming that I would have to stay away from doing such things in the standard version of Unity.

I just wanted to get an idea of whether or not I should even try to do something like this, from someone who has experience with Unity and iPhone development.

Thanks in advance.

Simply no.

It is possible for some of the scripts, but just no.

You’re going to get misled about GUI (draw calls), Shaders, memory issues, performance, etc.

It will be very beneficial to develop on Mac, with Unity Remote from the beginning. Because what you find comfortable and easy on a PC, may run perfectly on a computer, but during that ‘final touch’ phase, will cause you overhaul various things.

Thank you very much, that was exactly the type of reply I was looking for. Detailed and to the point. :slight_smile:
