Using probuilder in game

Hello all; I have a question regarding the Probuilder/Progrids API.

I was wondering, can the probuilder API be used in game - specifically for a survival type game I'm currently working on. My main interest is in creating walls and buildings in game, I think probuilder and progrids would be wonderful for this.

 

Awesome. The thing is, I am not sure where to get started. I see lots of documentation for it being used inside the editor (very helpful documentation, by the way) - but I was more referring to it being used via scripting for the player to build out there own "house" in game. I'm not sure if that's what you was referring too?

Thank you very much for your quick replies.

I have a few more unrelated questions, would you like me to ask here or start a new thread?

 

Awesome! Thank you so much!

Well, tree main questions I can think of, off hand.

The first being, do you know how well this would play with Unity's new ECS? I know you aren't so much the "scripting" guy, but as I understand it, to take full advantage of Unity's ECS, you want most in game objects to derive from the ECS system. Obviously, currently Probuilder uses the GameObject class, so I'm wondering if you'll have any support for that?

Secondly, what about the new Scriptable Render Pipeline, one of the things I love about Probuilder is the texture painting; but this can only be achieved with the probuilder shaders. Do you plan support for these?

And lastly; bit of a funny one. Do you plan on uploading more videos to your channel? I found them to be VERY helpful in learning probuilder, however I see there haven't been many new videos recently.

Thank you very much for your time, it's been very helpful to know what I can do!

 

Me and another are waiting on updates to ProbuilderVR(seperate thread) would love update on that to along with some more videos.

 

Yes seen does that mean it works with 2018 unity?
What off some improvments?

 

Awesome! Thank you so much for your help! Are there any plans on covering the scripting API, by chance? From the look of things, it requires a bit of knowledge of how shapes work in terms of code; which leaves me a little confused. I did take a look through the demo project and on the github, but they're a little more limited then what I was planning (although still great!) any plans on tutorials/documentation? Thanks again!

 

@gabrielw_unity When I import https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ProBuilder-API-Examples into a fresh 2018.1.1f1 project I get the following error

Assembly has reference to non-existent assembly 'Unity.ProBuilder.Core' (Assets/ProBuilder-API-Examples/Runtime/Unity.ProBuilder.Examples.asmdef)

Prior to that I had imported probuilder and progrids via package manager

 

Corrently this files is not important, just delete it(../Runtime/Unity.ProBuilder.Examples.asmdef and ../Editor/Unity.ProBuilder.Examples.Editor.asmdef), and you can continue (Works on Unity 2018.1.5f1 64bit)

 

I put the examples into a fresh 2018.3 project with probuilder downloaded as a package and I get
Assembly has reference to non-existent assembly 'Unity.ProBuilder' (Assets/API Examples/Runtime/Unity.ProBuilder.Examples.asmdef)

How did you guys get it to work with the package manager version (ver 4) as opposed to the asset store version (ver 2.9)?

 

it seems still no work.no Pribuilder dep can be selected

 

sir i wana use probuilder libiraray on play mode mean runtime in unity ? how can i make?
