The road to the metaverse is paved with real-time 3D

Unity Safe Mode is available in Unity 2020.2 beta. This improves how Unity behaves when opening a project that has script compilation errors.

If there are compilation errors at Editor startup, you will be prompted to enter Safe Mode. This mode is designed to provide the best environment for resolving compilation errors, so that you can quickly return your project to a functional state, without waiting for all of your project’s assets to be imported. This feature will simplify and speed up the process of upgrading a project to a new Unity version, and it will help teams working on large projects by reducing the number of cases in which the library folder contains incorrect import artifacts.

As the world’s leading platform for creating and operating interactive, real-time 3D content, Unity and those with Unity skills play an integral role in bringing these experiences to life. With surging demand in these industries, people with Unity skills are more coveted than ever, making this an opportune time to build and advance your Unity skills. 

Powered by NVIDIA GPUs, Unity ArtEngine’s AI has simplified workflow, and helped create vMaterials – a free library of over 2,000 high-quality real-world materials.  Creating realistic materials can be a time-consuming process. Even when working from high-quality references, it can take days of work to achieve impressive results. So when a team at NVIDIA was building up their vMaterials library, comprising more than 2,000 real-world materials, they looked to an AI-based solution in Unity ArtEngine. Powered by NVIDIA GPUs, ArtEngine became an indispensable tool in the pipeline that raised the quality of the produced textures while speeding up turnaround times for texture creation.
