Unity 5 Cross platform input not working and tutorial needed

Hi,

The cross platform input is not working. I took the survival shooter sample compiled in for android on unity 5 imported the cross platform input package and put the joystick controller on the player, but still things do not work on the unity remote app. I also request you if you could arrange a tutorial for cross platform input in general because with unity 5 it is different as compared to unity 4.6 where we had the standard assets - mobile in unity 5 we need to use the cross platform input, correct? so it is difficulat to understand. Also there isn't any help in the unity manual as well

 

I agree.

 

Also can't get the Joystick to work, using it in exactly the same way I used to before.

I also put together a test program.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. using UnityEngine;
3. using System.Collections;
4. using UnityEngine.UI;
5. using UnityStandardAssets.CrossPlatformInput;
6.  
7. public class TestJumpNewGuiText : MonoBehaviour
8. {
9.    Text readout;
10.   bool jump;
11.  
12.    void Start () {
13.      readout = GetComponent<Text>();
14.  
15.      if (!readout)
16.      {
17.        Debug.Log("Readout needs a NEW GUI Text component!");
18.        enabled = false;
19.        return;
20.      }
21.    }
22.  
23.    void Update()
24.    {
25. // GetButton Returns true while the virtual button identified by buttonName is held down.
26.   jump = CrossPlatformInputManager.GetButton("Jump");
27.      if ( jump )
28.      {
29.        readout.text = "Jump";
30.      }
31.   else
32.   {
33.   readout.text = "NO Jump";
34.   }
35.    }
36. }

I never see a JUMP only NO JUMP....

Anyone see anything wrong with that test?

 

@twobob - In your project, make sure you do GameObject->UI->EventSystem. As soon as I added that to mine, everything started working.
