Quoting: scaineI believe it was a Unity bug

No, it was a custom terrain shader relying on undefined behavior.

They've found the issue [External Link] - it wasn't related to Unity, but a custom shader relying on undefined behavior in the driver.

I believe that the bulk of the recent "unknown" hits come from a dart game on a kiosk-like installation produced by a Korean company, using a custom distribution. So, the stats are actually accurate: unknown distro, 1368x1536 portrait, 4GB ram - it's just that Korean virtual darts players (or maybe other places as well; I'm not sure how broadly the machines are distributed) outnumber Linux PC gamers 4:1.

Divinity: OS, Talos Principle, Dreamfall: Chapters, and Amnesia: TDD (because I realized at some point that I'd never finished it the first time)
Edit: Oh! and this great user-created campaign for SR:HK, The Caldecott Caper [External Link]!

Supporting Linux was a very difficult task. Even though Unity is supposed to be cross-platform solution, yet there are hundreds of problems related to compatibility and performance.

Dinocide, which is a classic platformer, was indeed a relatively easy port without any serious issues and we did make some extra income from this port.

our game required Mono, but most of the users didn't have it installed

if you are making something simple and only using native Unity tools, making a port is definitely a good idea.

It sounds like the moral is: Difficulty of porting increases with the complexity of the software.

Quoting: Seegras

Quoting: GuestThere is also the fact that WebGL is an officially supported build target.

It needs JDK 6.

It needs at least JDK 6. If it doesn't work with a newer version, that's unintentional (as far as I know) and should be reported/fixed.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleAlso wondering (and please, no pressure, take your time with this) - do you have any 5.3 editor plans?

We've just merged the latest changes from 5.3 final and are working on a test build now. (There are lots of vacations and holidays in December, though - this doesn't mean "hold your breath for a release tomorrow." ;) )

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI'm kinda curious if you guys have any handle on what the maintenance effort of the Linux editor might be in future.

We're still trying to evaluate this. Right now, Linux editor work is hosted on a dedicated branch that's isolated from the development mainline (i.e. trunk/master) and release mainlines, so it's currently more maintenance overhead than it potentially could be.

Quoting: Eikemake the editor not crash on load and save project under non-GNOME environments

From what I've seen, this has been a Gtk theme issue for the people who are experiencing it. You may have better luck if you try a different/standard Gtk2 theme.
