VFX Graph is essentially unusable. We have a long way to go.

    Dear Unity,
    This simply cannot stand. Fresh install of the VFX graph, newly created effect, I open it up and I am greeted with what you see below... Needless to say, I instantly uninstalled 2018.3. It is obviously nowhere near ready.

    Thank you for your time.

    "VFX graph essentially unusable"... because of the quality of the connecting lines in the node editor?... how does that make the resulting effects unusable?

    This thread made my day, thanks for the lols.

    Seriously tho - Animator alignment fixed in 18.3, we know it's silly that it took forever, Visual Effects graph is in early preview and we're still working on node graphs backend amongst other parts of it.

    I'm gonna walk home now, I would have driven but my car seat doesn't go to the exact angle I prefer, so my car is essentially unusable.

    Oh come on. It's a P666 on the priority scale problem. I'm actually glad that Unity takes the real problems first even if it means the UI is not perfect (being PC here).

    Well I guess it's time for Unity to do some serious R&D into lines of some sort. Clearly it's a ship stopping issue.
