2021.3.5f1 Release Notes

Improvements

  • 2D: Com.unity.2d.animation - Updated Visibility Tab documentation page.

  • Asset Import: Importing Models and their Materials using MaterialDescription will correctly use the glossiness value from the Material Fbx properties and applies it to the Standard Shader. (1370645)

  • Graphics: Reduced command buffer CPU overhead.

  • Graphics: Reduced RenderGraph CPU overhead.

Changes

  • 2D: Com.unity.2d.animation - Removed the 'Open' button from Sprite Library Asset and Sprite Library Source Asset inspectors.

  • Serialization: Changed alignment in Resource Image transfer function from 4 to 16 bytes to improve patching results on some platforms.

Fixes

  • Android: Fixed potential crash during shutdown when using Vulkan. (1423459)

  • Animation: Fixed InvalidOperationException when undoing in Animator Window with empty AnimatorController. (UUM-1853)

  • Asset Import: Fixed an issue that importing Models and their Materials using MaterialDescription will correctly use the glossiness value from the Material Fbx properties and applies it to the Standard Shader in HDRP and URP. (1370665)

  • Asset Import: Fixed an issue where the Model Importer remaps materials even when MaterialImportMode is None. (1401070)

  • Asset Import: Fixed internal MaterialDescription AssetPostprocessor priorities to -1000 so they don't conflict with users default implementations. (1360618)

  • Asset Import: Scripted importers that use Allocator.Temp allocated memory no longer leak memory on the asset import worker.

  • Editor: Fixed default vertex colors for the billboard LOD vertex data for SpeedTree v8 imports. (1417551)

  • Editor: Fixed ReorderableList first element height when the element uses PropertyDrawer. (1409773)

  • Editor: Fixed spurious assembly file locking which could prevent rebuild after using the right clic "Open source code" on a test in the Test Runner window.

  • GI: The editor could crash in case of overlapping light probes when additively loaded scenes. This fix eliminates an attempt to deduplicate light probes with respect to positions. A warning is introduced as the lack of deduplication could cause flickering objects.

  • Graphics: Allowed a native Texture3D to be bigger than 2GB. (UUM-4006)

  • Graphics: Disabled dynamic lightmapping shader variants that have DOTS_INSTANCING_ON enabled.

  • Graphics: Fixed a crash happening when an invalid Skinned Mesh Renderer is used with Ray Tracing effects. (1404046)

  • Graphics: Fixed consistent Gfx.WaitForPresentOnGfxThread editor spikes when using Metal. Also fixed issue which caused the Game View FPS to drop when the editor was moved to a different display. In addition, fixed bad performance when Game View was displayed in a different window at the same time as the Scene View. (UUM-4697)

  • Graphics: Fixed occasional crash when compressing to ETC2 with Texture2D.Compress. (1417802)

  • Graphics: Fixed potential stall on buffer uploads in OpenGL GfxDevice. (1369478)

  • Graphics: Fixed realoading of VFX Assets while inspecting a Cube Render Texture. (1340307)

  • Graphics: Fixed reinitializing of a compressed, non-crunched texture. (1401977)

  • Graphics: Shadow casters with different UnityPerMaterial aren't properly SRP Batched. (1421660)

  • IL2CPP: Corrected the behavior of named pipes on Windows platforms. (1420995)

  • IL2CPP: Corrected the module initializer function call signature to avoid calling the wrong method on WebGL. (1399638)

  • Kernel: Fixed an issue when attempting to load corrupted rest-certificate.pem cert would crash Unity. (1423569)

  • Linux: Fixed Linux Editor ignores mouse scroll wheel input when the cursor is locked on the new input system. (1354498)
