Backup unity project
https://www.shiftescape.com/2024/07/which-all-files-and-folders-to-backup.html

In order to be able to recreate the Unity Project from a backup zip, just remove Library and Temp folder when backing up the project to a zip file.



What's in there?

- Drawing Board Drag for moving objects while holding them, zooming in using mouse scroll and pinch zoom for touch devices.

- SimpleAES for encrypting and decrypting content.

- Orientation Manager for forcing a certain orientation on Android Devices

- Photon Connect contains a very robust Photon Matchmaking Example using Hashtable for Room Properties and Player Properties.

-SSUpload for taking screenshot of unity screen - flipping the textures and uploading screenshot using REST API.

############### for input to upper case ################

public InputField inputField;
this goes to start function:

  inputField.onValidateInput += delegate (string input, int charIndex, char addedChar) {
        return nameValidation(addedChar);
  };
and this is the addedChar function that does the control and modification on per character basis:

 private char nameValidation(char c)
 {
     if (c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z') {
         return (char)((int)c - 'A' + 'a');
     }
     else if ((c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') || (c >= '0' && c <= '9') || c == '_' || c == ' ') {
         return c;
     } else {
         return '\0';
     }
 }

no more onChange causing more change!


And here's an even simpler function to force uppercase...

 void Start()
 {
     your_input.onValidateInput += 
         delegate (string s, int i, char c) { return char.ToUpper(c); };
 }
 
And if you want ONLY letters:

 void Start()
 {
     your_input.onValidateInput += delegate (string s, int i, char c) { return char.ToUpper(c); };
 }
 
 char Val(char c)
 {
     c =  char.ToUpper(c);
     return char.IsLetter(c) ? c : '\0';
 }

Here's uppercase letters only, and a length limit:

     your_input.onValidateInput += delegate (string s, int i, char c)
     {
         if (s.Length >= 4) { return '\0'; }
         c = char.ToUpper(c);
         return char.IsLetter(c) ? c : '\0';
     };

(Alternately, don't forget the very handy .CharacterValidation approach. It is often all you need:)

 void Start()
 {
     your_input.characterValidation = InputField.CharacterValidation.Alphanumeric;
 }


So when using .onValidateInput the .Net "char." functions are very handy.

Unity Mobile Game Optimization Checklist

By
- On Image and Text components that aren’t interacted with you can uncheck “Raycast Target” on it, as it will remove them from any Raycast calculus. - Click on your textures in your “Project” window. Click on the “Advanced” arrow, and now check “Generate Mip Maps”, Unity especially recommends it for faster texture loading time and a lower rendering time. - Set the “Shadow Cascades” to “No Cascades” (Quality settings) - If you have dynamic UI elements like a Scroll Rect with a lot of elements to visualize, a good practice is to turn off the pixel perfect check box on the canvas that contains the list and disable the items that aren’t visible on the screen. - Set all non moving objects to "Static" - Above Unity3d 2017.2 you should turn off "autoSyncTransforms" on the Physics tab - Always use Crunch Compression Low on textures - Try to keep the “Collision Detection Mode” on “Discrete” if possible, as “Dynamic” demands more performance. - You can go to the TimeManager w...

How to make RPC in Unreal Engine Steam Online Subsystem and EOS

By
Remote Procedure Calls, also known as RPCs, are a way to call something on any other instance.  In the Unreal Engine, RPCs are used to ship events from the patron to the server, the server to the customer, or from the server to a specific group. It's important to word that RPCs cannot have a return cost. If you want to return something, you'll ought to use a seconds RPC within the contrary path. There are precise policies that RPCs observe, which are unique in the official Documentation. Some of these regulations encompass wherein the RPC must be run, such as the server instance of an Actor, on the owner of the Actor, or on all instances of the Actor. There are some necessities for RPCs. First, they must be referred to as on Actors or replicated Subobjects. The Actor (and component) have to additionally be replicated. If the server is looking an RPC to be executed on a customer, handiest the patron who owns that Actor will execute the function. Similarly, if a client is calling...
