I'm a bit slow and just thought - won't all the add ons for Playmaker have to be rewritten for 1.8?

 

Most add-ons should work fine with 1.8. The update has been in beta for a while for testing and to allow third parties to update any add-ons if needed...

 

Really hope so. .

 

1.8 will be in public beta to work through any issues. But we have quite a lot of private beta users who have been using 1.8 for a while now...

 

Great. . When's the public beta out? [edit] . Also, I own Playmaker so is there anyway I can get in on the beta now?

 

The main thing that has been holding up a 1.8 release is the package import changes made in Unity 5.x.
These changes meant importing an update could make duplicate files and break projects in ways that weren't obvious to fix. We feared this might generate a lot of support requests and be generally frustrating for users.

So we were waiting for Unity to address the issue, and Unity 5.3, due any day now, is supposed to fix the problem.
However some last minute questions about the new package importer have been raised by asset store publishers.
So I'd like to see how that pans out, in case we need to modify the 1.8 public beta.

I know this is frustrating. Trust me it's created a log jam for updates that we'd very much like to clear!

However, you can get access to the beta now by emailing us:
- Your Playmaker invoice number
- A google\gmail address to send the google groups invite to

Thanks for your patience. We really want to get the 1.8 update out asap!

 

Understood. I'll wait a week to see if the log jam bursts....

Hi Alex chouls
I suggest
1
release an offline chm manual
2
integrate the mecanim pack. mecanim is unity defaut feature, the mecanim pack shouldn't be an additional download pack.

 

Is the ecosystem thingy (add ons) part of the normal download? . It should be if it isn't...

 

Great suggestions, thanks!

I'm hoping to make an offline manual after we've updated the online one. Unfortunately I haven't found a way to save a fogbugz wiki in an offline document, so it will probably be done manually. Given the amount of work involved we probably won't be able to include the Action Reference (hundreds of pages on the wiki), but the offline document would cover Installation, Core Concepts, User Interface etc.

Until recently we were still supporting Unity 3.5, but it's definitely time to integrate Mecanim support now...

 

I assume you mean the Ecosystem? Officially the Ecosystem is still in beta, but we will look at including it in the main installation soon... It is very useful!

 

I did! And look forward to that...

 

Made some progress figuring out a way to scrape the fogbugz wiki, so it might be possible to build a complete offline doc after all...

But leaning towards a pdf document for cross platform compatibility.

We've released a first pass at an offline version of the Playmaker Manual:
http://hutonggames.com/playmakerforum/index.php?topic=11924.msg55671

Check it out and please leave feedback...

NOTE: We're still in the process of updating the online docs, but taking a snapshot is now fairly easy, so we can update the offline docs as we go

Happy Holidays,
Alex
