Is Unity3D trying to tell me something?

In my PlayerPrefs I'm getting the following key/value strings:

"LoggedInUser" / "Jackass".

And I can not find out where the hell that is coming from!

 

Hahaha, what do you mean exactly? You are reading that pref and you don't like the value? Can't you change the pref to "LoggedUser" instead of "LoggedInUser"?

 

No. I'm not setting that anywhere. I'm trying to get rid of it. Here's more info:

I am on OSX, running Unity 4.3.4. And I keep getting old UserPrefs settings from somewhere.

My Build Options are set to Standalone, and the PlayerSettings are:

Company Name: DefaultCompany
Produce name: TOTu

So when I run a project this creates: ~/Library/Preferences/unity.DefaultCompany.TOTu.plist

But there are many old leftover settings in that Prefs file. I can delete it. Create a completely new project with nothing in it but the Main Camera. And when I run that empty project the old UserPrefs with leftover settings are back.

After I delete my UserPrefs then run the project I can see that Unity creates a temporary UserPrefs file named like unity.DefaultCompany.TOTu.plist.gnKdRbg

How can I get rind of those old PlayerPrefs?

 

Have you tried PlayerPrefs.DeleteAll()?
If that doesn't work then try changing your company name and product name to something else.

 

That works and gets rid of the old stuff but if I change it back then I get the old stuff back. So Unity must be keeping a backup hidden somewhere. And I'd like to know where.

 

Note that MacOSX caches too - just deleting the plist file will not clear that cache.

 

The simplest thing is to log out and back in again. There's also some shell command which I forget....

I'll try that. thanks.
