    Hello,
    i was previously using the B14 build that was very stable for our game. I recently updated to b22 and it appears while the changes were damn decent the b22 version of our game started crashing on startup on both Mac & Linux versions. In addition to that the audio was fading away every 30 seconds in the game.

    The bugs are reproducable as we just switched back to b14 and the game became operational again. If anyone from Unity is interested in investigating this i can supply you with both builds of the game for testing.

    That's what the bug reporting tool is for.

    I think that the output of that tool goes from the SMTP directly to /dev/null - everything i reported there so far never got fixed. But i figured that this bug actually might be important for the Unity guys as you cannot "code" arround it.

    I've had multiple bugs reported through the tool get fixed.

    Make sure you fill out the form as completely as possible and list any steps .

    Shot in the dark in regards to the crashing, but are you using the new Unity UI system, and touching the transparency of either an image in the UI, or a containing CanvasGroup? If so, is this something that plays fine in the editor, but crashes on an actual build?

    Yes, please post the bug number here and I'll alert the QA team. Please make sure that they have a project to test - they do a lot of testing on beta releases, so having something new to help them do testing is really helpful.
