Challenge Overview: Use the skills you’ve learned in the previous two lessons to score on a basketball hoop. After you’ve scored, you will have to use the hierarchy and inspector windows to manipulate the way your catapult works. When you’ve found out how to make changes to your catapult, try the Free Play activities again using different catapult settings. When you’ve finished working with the catapult settings, look at the code that calculates the values you see inside the simulation. Challenge Outcome: Catapult will throw a cannonball through a basketball hoop Catapult settings and characteristics will be manipulated Editor code will be investigated Challenge Objectives: In this challenge, you will reinforce the following skills/concepts: Using mass and force sliders to send a cannonball to a specific location Use the hierarchy menu to select elements of your catapult Adjust the launch settings of your catapult using the inspector window in Unity Complete the Free Play activities without the use of the force and mass sliders Adjust the project settings and investigate the effect of your changes in the Free Play activities Look at the code that allows the physics editor to make calculations

This tutorial will guide you through the process of rigging and animating in UModeler X. In Rigging Mode, you will learn how to animate your model by assigning and modifying weights on the meshes.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use UModeler X’s UV Editor to map 2D images onto 3D models. This will allow you to accurately apply textures, which are 2D images, to 3D models.

In this tutorial, you'll work with Muse and the Unity Editor to prototype a simple game. Your prototype will include the following elements: A background sprite (or multiple sprites) generated from Muse Sprite. A character made from another sprite generated from Muse Sprite. Platforms made from cubes, stylized with materials made from Muse Texture. A script to control your character from the keyboard, generated by Muse Chat. Note: Unity Muse is $30/month, with a 15-day free trial, which includes a growing set of features that enhance game creation, and access to pre-releases. For more information, go to the Muse page on unity.com.

Rendering graphics in Unity is a complex task. This guide provides a better understanding of the underlying concepts related to rendering, and best practices for reducing the rendering workload on the GPU.

Ragdolls are variants of animated objects whose bones are completely taken over by the force of physics. They’re most often used when a character is defeated, like in an action game when a player’s health depletes, or when you want a character’s movement to appear to be driven by physical forces. In this tutorial, we’ll create a Ragdoll using Unity’s built-in Create Ragdoll window. We'll use the Eva character in our examples, but you can use any character you want.

A profiling tool gives detailed information about how a game is performing. The Profiler window is a powerful profiling tool that is built into Unity. This tutorial describes what the Profiler window is used for and how to use it to diagnose performance problems in a game or other application.

Use the resources in this tutorial to help complete your game project using the Unity Playground framework. Each step drills down into one of the scripts, actions, attributes, or conditions that are used in the project.

In this tutorial, you will learn about the features and campaign types available on Unity's UA dashboard, including campaign setup, creative pack addition, targeting options, monitoring tools, and best practices for optimal performance.
