Unity 3.4 Issues / Bugs

I’m not sure if others are having these issues so I figured it best to post it to this forum and see. I recently upgraded to Unity 3.4 and the following issues have come up…

  • When I drag and drop the Advanced Water prefab into my scene it automatically puts some strange dark sepia tone filter on my camera that is impossible to remove. The only work around I have found is to save the scene, quit Unity and then restart Unity and then the strange filter is gone.
  • Sometimes the Undo feature doesn’t work at all and other times it works fine, but there has been numerous times where I can’t undo anything at all. The menu items are ghosted.
  • Audio playback stops completely and no sound is heard when I press the Play/Run Game button. If I quit Unity and relaunch it Audio playback works fine.
  • All kinds of JavaScript errors… even with scripts that are part of the standard assets. I read that their is a new JavaScript compliler on the release notes, but I’m getting other errors that are not listed on the release notes page and don’t know how to fix.
  • C# script errors in scripts that previously worked fine in 3.3
  • Problems with scripts in the “Mega-Fiers” extension that I would normally not have to look at beause they worked fine in 3.3

Also, where are the instructions on how to make use of the new Substance Materials that are now built-in to the Unity Editor? The only info I could find was on the Substance web site. Do I have to purchase something in order to create a substance?

I think i can answer your question about substance. What it is actually a type of shader and you need to have this substance, .sbsar files to use them. You can purchase substances (like purchasing textures/shaders) or download free. Go asset store look for the 18 free substance and the airstream demo as well. Or you can make your own substance, by purchasing the substance designer. And there’s also a special type of substance that’s called bitmap2material, what it can do it can load in your texture input and generate bumps and other things.

Note bout substance: Some substance allow you to change the input texture, some do not. So basically just head over to asset store and download the demo and the free substance and give it a try. :smile:
