One more tool in your portfolio to leverage the performance of your game. We will dive into IL2CPP internals to find new ways to make our games faster and create better experiences for our players
In this series extension, we deep dive into performance testing for Unity ECS. With Unity’s multiple approaches to do the same thing, testing has been crucial in optimizing my game. Many developers, like me, held off using Unity.Entities until the 1.0 launch because the API kept changing. Performance testing allows us to compare different techniques quickly. Talking about parallelization, it’s hard to tell if your code is running better on the main thread or otherwise, unless you test it. Through testing, we can decipher minute performance differences. I also use tests to track performance after optimization attempts and minor code updates. I’ve further explained the test setup and provided code examples for clarity.
In this post we continue to look at how to deform a mesh in Unity using a real-world example. We will learn MeshData API and optimize the algorithm
Compilation of best Unity tips by Unity engineers gathered at Unite conference. I spent a bunch of time rewatching those talks so you don’t need to.
While passing technical interviews the topic of using ScriptableObjects was raised a lot of times, but not all studios use them or even know about its advantages. In this post I would like to share reasons why I use it myself and would be happy to discuss additional pros and cons in the comments.
TL;DR: Use ScriptableObject when you need to store and customize properties of your scripts.
