I downloaded and installed 5.4.2f2. fine. then i tried following Getting Started With Unity. None of the resources mentioned exists. thats bad. Ok the tute is pretty old but I couldn’t find anything newer.

So i created and new project and some basic stfuff as best I could but

  1. everything is pink. even the skymap. which afaik (since i didnt add a texture) should be a plane blue.
  2. no object textures show up
  3. even through keyboard mappings are present in the inspector no keys work when i am run.

So I downloaded the racing project with the elevated ramps. it looks terrible on my system (old dell laptop with an intel graphics chip - somehwere in the docs i think i noticed intel mobile chips supported since 2005).

anyone got some pointers for a noob?

the answer might be given here…

if i interpret that page correctly then intel 945gm support ended with unity 5.4 on account of dropping sm2.0 shader support. can someone more qualified can give a definitive opinion?

if i revert to an earlier version i be good? e.g. 5.3?
