New 2019.3.0a10 Entries since 2019.3.0a8

Features

  • Editor: Scene Picking - Following the Scene Visibility tools that arrived in 2019.1, a second column has been added for enabling/disabling Picking of objects in the Scene View. An object that is "Not Pickable" will still be visible in the scene, but clicking or drag-selecting in the scene will ignore it. Like Scene Visibility, a status icon is displayed in the Heirarchy column, and customizable shortcuts are provided. Also the same, toggling Pickable/Not Pickable will not mark the scene as dirty, or affect the game data in any way.

  • GI: Added support for baking box and pyramid shapes for HDRP sportlights.

  • GI: AMD Radeon Pro Image Filters AI denoiser for the CPU and GPU progressive lightmapper. Currently Windows and AMD hardware only.

  • Package Manager: Added a Diagnose button to the Unity Package Manager critical failure dialog. Clicking Diagnose will launch the Package Manager Diagnostics tool and close Unity.

  • Particles: Bring managed job support for Particle Systems out of experimental status, and improve the API to support job dependencies, and Burst.

    • Note that this release removes the ParticleSystem.SetJob and ParticleSystem.ClearJob API, and replaces them with MonoBehaviour.OnParticleUpdateJobScheduled, which is the new place to schedule managed Particle System jobs.
  • Physics: PhysX 4.1 upgrade. This brings us lots of accuracy improvements, some better performance in a variety of cases.

    Additionally, we expose a few of the new features:

    • a new, faster, midphase that doesn't need R-Trees to be built (see MeshCookingOptions.UseFastMidphase, available on Desktop targets)
    • a new broadphase algorithm that's faster than sweep-and-prune in most cases (see Automatic Box Pruning in the physics settings)
    • a new solver that's good for reducing joints issues (see Temporal Gauss-Siedel solver type in the physics settings)
    • a new Physics.BakeMesh() function to pre-cook meshes for MeshCollider (including off the main thread)
  • Profiler: Added Deep Profiler support to Mono and IL2CPP players.

  • Profiler: Added support for managed allocation callstacks in players.

  • Universal Windows Platform: Enable Device Portal support for ExecutableOnly builds

Backwards Compatibility Breaking Changes

  • Editor: Grid Snapping moves the previous "Snap" settings to a Scene Toolbar drop-down control, and adds a (default ON) option for snapping directly to the Grid. Grid visuals can also be controlled from a Scene Toolbar drop-down. Keyboard shortcuts have been added to the Shortcut manager, and a new Grid API is now available for custom editor tools to make use of, ie geometry and spline editing tools.
    This is a new issue, not seen in any released version.

  • Editor: The PresetManager now supports a list of default Presets for each Preset type instead of a single Preset. The DefaultPreset contains a filter that is tested against the new default Object to decide whether this Preset should be applied to it or not. Every matching Preset will be applied in order to the newly default Object (whether it is created using ObjectFactory API or an importer created for a new file added to the project).

  • Scripting: Added icon for Assembly definition reference (asmref) asset files.

  • Profiler: Reworked Profiler toolbar as part of Editor Theming Update, rearranging buttons to better align with user workflows

    • "Profile Editor" button was removed, the workflow is still supported by selecting "Editor" as target.
    • "Record", "SaveAs", "Load", and "Current" are now Icon buttons to save space
    • "Allocation Callstacks" has been renamed to "Call Stacks" for brevetiy.
    • added "Open Manual" and an Overflow Menu button that contains colorblind mode and a link to Profiler Preferences.
