I wanted to finish this Takeover with something I get asked a lot: how do I set up my characters in Unity? So here is how to create, rig and animate simple characters all in Unity! I threw together a cute robot for this occasion 🤖

#UnityTips @AlexStrook
It’s easy to create simple characters with basic primitives. Probuilder is useful too! For this character I used 4 models that I duplicated, scaled, rotated around to create this cute robot. It helps to think about animation at this step!
Once the model is done, I create empty gameobjects, and place them where the joints would rotate. These are the objects that will get animated, it’s important to name them correctly for animation! Using front/side views helps with precise placement.

Hello Unity fam!👋
My name is Fabian Willis (@FabianWillisArt), 3D Artist from Atlanta, and I will be your flight attendant on behalf of #Unity3D Airlines. Please ensure your electronic devices are not set to airplane mode as I’ll be sharing some #unitytips & tricks with you 🧵
Some info about me:
📌Been learning 3D w/ Blender since 2018 & Unity gamedev since 2019
📌My art evolved from flat creations to low poly cel shaded characters & enviro design
📌My inspo comes from games I’ve played in my childhood: Zelda, Kingdom Hearts & Final Fantasy 9 & 10
.@HofmannDev & I (@FabianWillisArt) are working on a game like classics Jak & Daxter, Wind Waker, & Majora’s Mask. It features a main character called Demi, has a compelling plot, the gameplay of an action-adventure, & the mechanics of a 3D platformer👇

In case you didn’t know, there’s a very fun way to get more bang for your buck when using particle systems and custom shaders: custom vertex streams!

Let’s take a look at what these are, and how we can use them for more advanced particle effects! 🧵

@HarryAlisavakis #unitytips
@HarryAlisavakis As you already know, rendered models in Unity are made with triangles which consist of vertices. And vertices hold all essential information regarding these models, like their individual position, their UV coordinates or their vertex color!
The cool thing is that we can add any sort of arbitrary data to our vertices and use it in our custom shader however we like ✨ That’s what custom vertex streams in particle systems allow us to do: pass particle-related information to our vertices that we can use as we please!

We’re trying something different for this week’s #unitytips Tuesday! In this thread, the design team gives you some insight into the process behind a great Unity 2019.1 addition, Shortcut Manager.
It all starts with an idea - and this one was about making hotkeys more accessible. How can we make it easier to assign, manage, debug, and understand all your hotkeys in Unity?
Once we’ve explored the concept a bit and done some sketches, out come the wireframes. We’ve got some old-school designers that still like to use @Balsamiq for interaction callouts, states, and rapid iterations.
