[Version 2 RELEASED] A+ Assets Explorer - Know Your Assets In Project Better

I have already do quick test on Unity 8.3 and it works. You may try the free version first and see if it works on your side too.

 

Hello,
I’ve just purchased A+ Assets Explorer on the Assets Store but I have a problem to get unused assets.

After build, nothing happens.

I tried to clean my Log files as mentioned on this forum.

But without success. I didn’t get any errors (only obsolete warnings).

I use Unity 2018.3.1f1 and Unity Hub.

Any ideas ?

Regards

 

Hello,

Thank you for puchasing and your time on A+. What's the OS on your side? I will try to repro it on my side and get back the result to you.

 

I'm on MacOs Mojave.
My user directory is on a special drive (not the boot one), so log files are in:
/Volumes/Data/Users/Philippe/Library/Logs/Unity
Maybe the plugin doesn't find the correct log file...

 

That's possible. May I ask you try to modify the line 137 of AssetsUsageChecker.cs from

Code (CSharp):

1. string unityLogFolder = Path.Combine(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal), "Library/Logs/Unity");

To

Code (CSharp):

1. string unityLogFolder = "/Volumes/Data/Users/Philippe/Library/Logs/Unity"

and see if it works? Thank you very much~

 

Hi @Amlovey ,
I checked unityLogFolder and it's the right path. So the problem is not here.

But I notice something strange: when I add

Code (CSharp):

1. Debug.LogError("unityLogFolder="+unityLogFolder)

just before

Code (CSharp):

1. return unityLogFolder;

Then I never get the log on my editor console...
So the function seems to not be called after build or at Unity start...

I try again this way:
- Start Unity
- Click "Trigger a build"
- After build: double click on AssesUsageChecker.cs (which launch VS studio) and just add an empty line in GetEdtiorFilePath() then save
- Return in the Editor
- and it works! I get "Assets size summary" and used/unused assets...

So I think that there is something which is not called after build (but called when scripts are recompiled).

 

Thank you very much for the Information. It's Interesting that no script recompilation after build in 2018.3. In older Unity it has a recompilation in my experience. I will fix the issue in next release.

 

Hi @Knbmedia,

new version 2.1.6 is available on Asset Store, the new version have include the fix.

 

25% off sales is available now. it will end two weeks later

 

Hey there. I have had this for about 2 years but never really had a need to use it until now. I just upgraded a project to HWRP but was quickly met by errors indicating I was over the shader limit of 256. Turns out I have some 580+, lol. Well, I thought this would be a good opportunity to give this a try as it could find unused assets. Unfortunately, though, I installed it, scanned / created a dbcache and went to look at shaders and they all showed "?" under the column of being used or not.

Does this not happen to work for shaders? Perhaps I might have missed a step other than opening it up, but then also doing refresh data? I am using 2019.3.0b6 at the moment.

Thanks,
-MH

 

Hi MH,
May be this document can help you http://www.amlovey.com/assets-explorer/find-unused-assets. Note: the menu item is under Tools Menu of Unity Editor.

 

Hi. I have Asset Hunter Pro. What are your selling points on this asset?

 

Both of them have project cleaning feature, but A+ Assets Explorer have different features, for example:
1. Search assets by the specific properties. For example: we need to find models with more than 10000 vertexes, or all materials that are using the Standard shader, or the textures with ReadWrite property enabled.
2. Find which assets in Project are referencing the selected assets

Anyway, they are different unity editor plugins...

 

Using Unity 2020.2.1f1

Just downloaded the Asset and I get an error
APlus.ReflectionUtils.RegisterMethod

I just got the Assets Explorer window open and happens while it is Loading

 

Hi，would you mind send email to amlovey@qq.com.

A+ Assets Explorer is not working on Unity 2020, because CEF was removed by Unity. A+ Assets Explorer 2 works on Unity 2020.

 

Hi just bought this. Nice extension! There doesn't appear to be a way to do it out of the box, but can you please add the option to indent blocks starting with

UNITY_INSTANCING_BUFFER_START

and ending with

UNITY_INSTANCING_BUFFER_END

?

 

Hi, thank you for purchasing. Do you mean add an header to Shader category that show whether the shader contains the macro block?

 

What happens is if I create a new Surface Shader, put properties like

_Color

in the

UNITY_INSTANCING_BUFFER_START / END

block and format it then the formatter will remove the indentation.

This is what I would like to have:


This is what I'm getting after formatting:


So that unity specific block start and end.

 

Hi Matt, are you talking about ShaderlabVSCode? It's a thread for A+ Assets Explorer. For the formatting issue, it's easy to fix that. But may be someone don't like that style, i may add a option for you to config the style you like. I will add it in next release.

 

Uhh.. Yeah meant to be in ShaderlabVSCode thread. Haha sorry about that. That would be fantastic if you are able to add it. Thanks so much!
