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.

Learn about different performance applications, fixing performance issues, memory management and graphics optimisations.

Once you've discovered a performance problem in your game, how should you go about fixing it? This tutorial discusses some common issues and optimization techniques for scripts, garbage collection, and graphics rendering.

9-slicing is a 2D technique which allows you to reuse an image at various sizes without needing to prepare multiple assets. It’s often useful to be able to dynamically resize graphic elements in a game or application. In this tutorial, you will learn to create and use the 9-Slicing technique.

In this course, Dr Penny de Byl reveals the most popular AI techniques used for creating believable game characters using her internationally acclaimed teaching style and knowledge from over 25 years researching and working with games, computer graphics and artificial intelligence. Throughout, you will follow along with hands-on workshops designed to teach you about the fundamental AI techniques used in today's games.  You'll join in as NPCs are programmed to chase, hide, flee, patrol, shoot, race, crowd, plan and much more.

You will create and set up the project that will soon transform into your very own Personal Project. For now, you will use “primitive” shapes (such as spheres, cubes, and planes) as placeholders for your objects so that you can add functionality as efficiently as possible without getting bogged down by graphics. To make it clear which object is which, you will also give each object a unique colored material.

The Universal Render Pipeline, is a powerful solution that delivers beautiful graphics and performance while scaling to a wide range of platforms. Learn how to create optimized and realistic lighting using the Universal Render Pipeline (URP) and learn the key lighting features of the Universal Render Pipeline. Whether you’re building 2D, 3D, VR, or AR projects, if you want to develop once and deploy everywhere, this is the rendering technology to use.

The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) has received several updates in Unity 6. This course will walk you through the latest features available in the Universal Render Pipeline, and show you how to begin using them in your own projects. We’ll start by looking at Screen Space lens flares and improvements made to Temporal Anti-Aliasing. Next, we’ll examine the new Spatial-Temporal Post-Processing upscaler, which will help deliver superior graphics performance across a variety of devices and screen resolutions. By the end of this course, you will be familiar with the latest updates to Unity’s Universal Render Pipeline. Configure and make use of the new Screen Space Lens Flare effect. Configure Render Pipeline assets to enable TAA in your project. Configure Render Pipeline assets to enable STPP in your project. Use the Rendering Debugger to analyze GPU Frame Time.

Watch the recording of the live virtual session where a Unity Certified Instructor led learners through a series of mini-challenges to create and upgrade existing projects to use the Universal Render Pipeline (URP). The URP aims to optimize real-time performance on traditionally performance-constrained platforms, such as mobile devices or low-end consoles and PCs. Learn how to optimize your project using Universal Render Pipeline (URP) by customizing the URP Asset Settings and converting your project’s Materials to use URP Shaders. Throughout the session, you will learn how to: Import and set up the Universal Render Pipeline in a new project. Convert existing projects from the Standard Render Pipeline to URP. Add new URP Assets to the Graphics Pipeline. Customize the project using each of the URP Asset Settings: General Quality Lighting Shadows Post-Processing Advanced Convert existing project Materials to URP Materials. Create and use new URP Materials

In this tutorial, you’ll learn to use occlusion culling to optimize rendering and performance of your 3D Unity projects.
