Assets not showing up and buggy scene after updating high sierra

Hey all,

Has anyone else had this problem? After updating high sierra a while back (currently running 10.13.4, Unity version is 5.3.8p2) my projects which were working just fine are virtually unusable now. The game editor is just a blotchy mess of what used to be a normal game scene and all the assets are gone.

I've heard that other people have had issues with high sierra and Unity but It'd be great if someone has a workaround.

Much appreciated!

 

I can't help other than to point out that High Sierra didn't exist during the 5.3.8 release cycle, so I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work.

 

Is that a really old version? It used to work fine on my mac then stopped working a few months ago or so.

I also found this, which is very helpful.

5.3 is pretty old, and is no longer getting patches from Unity. 5.3 was originally released at the end of 2015. 5.3.8 was released a year ago, and 5.3.8p2 was released a few months later but only addressed a single security issue (the release notes only has a single item). High Sierra is newer than any 5.3 release. You should try to move your project to one of the later 5.x versions or 2017.x if possible.

 

Okay, that explains a lot.

I downloaded 5.5.5 and everything works again. Thanks for the help!
