Hey GFS! I'm working on a custom renderer built on top of URP for Unity that has similar results to Lumen (it's 100% real-time). I'd absolutely be happy to give you an exclusive free early-access copy (which I haven't given anyone else yet).
"It is very cool to see what can be done with the engine/editor given a team that can focus on and perform that work." If only Unity had a team to focus on the engine and the editor.
The reason these features are only available in Chinese version because in china there is no strict laws about copyright that's why we see mostly cheap things that is a copy of big brands. So I think they just copy and paste the unreal code in unity and if unity release this version in global than they will surely get sued but unreal.
I was thinking something similar myself, that this was essentially a rip-off with a name change. It would explain why it isn't released outside of China.
Or these features don't work as they claimed. Nanite needs way more meshes to show it's ability, but there is only a few video with simple scene. We will never find it out, until actually try it.
Thank you so much for making content on Unity. I'm trying to learn more about the company and understand if its a good company to invest in. Appreciate it!
Super easy to implement things like nanite and lumen when you have a good reference code available... I am certain they are not stealing code from Epic... China would never do that. Right?!
I suspect the real reason its not in western Unity isn't so much code (All the information is out there in the academic research, theres no great secrets here) but patents. The thing is, china doesnt really *do* software patents, thats a western thing. The end result is you can add all that stuff into chinese unity, but it cant be added into western unity. Because Epic cant sue in china, but it sure as hell can in the US and Europe.
@@shayneoneill1506 That is something China gets right. Patents are one of the worst things we have.

Sounds like a weird ploy for the executives and shareholders to garner the Eastern market - and possibly sell-off to their partners there. Wouldn't even be surprised if that's an announcement post Unity 6.
I'm already learning Unreal Engine. Even if "Unity West" builds these Nanite/Lumen-like features into Unity 6, that doesn't change Unity's completely depraved attitude. I'm just tired of being disappointed by Unity in so many ways.
Same. Been learning Unreal for the 3D stuff. Staying with Unity only for 2D, since 3D is an absolute pain on their engine. Don't wanna go to Godot till they get the Unity 5 treatment. Which could be a couple of years.

What an incredible video!!!! Could you imagine someone could use google translator and actually READ ENGLISH TEXT !!!!????? So much useful authored information! TY!!!!
If their management is completely separate from the main branch, *it doesn't surprise me they are doing more powerful improvements given the direction the board has been steering Unity towards since the company went public.* It doesn't even take a business genius to see the engine could use these features more than live service support. It feels like the quality and competitivity of the engine became secondary. *And now they are even charging $250 per seat for Odin, which is an asset that mainly just makes the workflow of the engine better, but is just not worth it on top of Pro and every other cost you need to deal with to make the engine good enough to be competitive. They shoot themselves on the foot.*
Unity devs can finally jump to an engine that's just like Unity with nice features..... I wonder what else is in the Taunjie engine roadmap, perhaps Unity users should also all group up and chip in to buy the source code so they can implement all the features and fix the wont fix bugs aswel.
China requiring foreign companies to start joint venture is very smart on their part. The company gets to profit from a huge market, and China gets to keep some of the know-how. I bet many other well known companies already do that, but we just don't know about it
Pretty sure it’s required by law, like EVERY foreign company has to do that. But like you china can keep the know how and have some control over the company, and reason foreign companies allow this is because China gives them much higher percentage of overall returns and favorable treatment.
In a way it makes sense. Both Unity China and UE are own by companies that make games while Unity Technologies does not. Unity Technologies only needs to care about making money from Unity engine but the game companies care more about making money from their games and reducing development cost. That creates different priorities and incentives. Could this be backported? Maybe but judging from the version numbering change they probably didn't intend to maintain compatibility.
It does not make any sense. Unity has only source of income: the unity platform, so they have more incentive to create a better platform. Instead Unity China and EU consider that both platforms are a side-project.
@@eng3d Their only incentive for creating a better platform is having a strong enough competitor. Who do you think those are? Look at what happened with CPUs when AMD finally came out with Ryzen versus before when it was basically all Intel. On the other hand for the companies that make games they can either save money by getting the same work done with fewer workers or getting more work done with the same amount of workers. Those are very tangible motives. For Unity it would be much harder to prove that any particular feature will earn them more money. They can't implement it and then go "hey we are going to charge you more money now that Unity has this feature". The only thing that would pressure Unity is a competitor offering this feature which could cause existing clients to switch over. Who do you think is that competitor?
Whoever still uses Unity… my honest condolences. No bad words. People still seem to love it. I can't share this experience after two Unity projects with 40+ people on each project.
@@hop3studio511 In short words: It's a difficult relationship. I have been a 3D artist for over 26 years, started with Unity around 12 years ago with a small project. If you don't have any programming knowledge, it was difficult to find support in any way. The forums were toxic several years ago, and even on simple questions you got responses like: If you can't do that easy thing, better stop trying to make a game. In comparison: Whatever question I ask on UE Forums and certain chat solutions, more than often I get response and help from Epic Devs themselves, sometimes with direct solutions. Later on, on bigger commercial projects, we ran into bugs that were never fixed for a decade. We had to use third-party solutions to get WYSIWYG into the normal editor. Things you get out of the box with Unreal Engine. I am not UE fanboying at this point - but pointing out that Unity struggles to find a sweet spot that seems more than easy for Epic Games. That involves all sides: engine, devs and the community. There are many nice games being done with Unity! There are many very talented people. But they know this engine from the inside out, the odds and probably how to deal with several obstacles. Obstacles that can cost a ton of money and time. I wish Unity all the best, but I closed that chapter for myself.
Do you know what a tpm is for? It's the chip that holds the keys to encrypt/decrypt the system. It's the same component that keeps your Bitcoin and shtcons pk save in a hardware wallet. So your argument is, theirs is better because it has no security?
The moment I read the words "Unity" and "China", Genshin is the first that came to mind. Obviously this is targeted to those companies making games like Genshin or Honkai Impact as they were all made in Unity and make tons of money. I fear that Unity will forever have two versions, but I still hope it also gets released in other countries.
I mean...there is no actual problem developing and producing a game with it OUTSIDE china right? this is what i'm curios of cause Nanite and Lumen are pretty hard to pass on tbh
@@Tomas9970_1 not the original poster, but I just wanted to mention documentation. The biggest hurdle I see everyone fighting for unreal is its a massive engine with horrible documentation. It's been a while since I've looked into it so maybe they are better now, but for someone just trying to get into the engine getting told to "just read the sourcecode" is enough for me to walk away.
According to the announcement. "Unity will retain majority ownership and control of Unity China, which will operate solely within the Greater China region". That means they will only sell this version to someone in the "Greater China region" whatever that means.
@@Tomas9970_1 because it's not Unity? The UX and workflows are very different between the two engines, especially when most people use visual scripting in Unreal (or you have to learn c++) vs C# in Unity
@messengercreator how is it hard? Harder than unreal? Cryengine? Godot is cool but it can't just be about easy, but more about usefulness. How will you ever get work if the only engine you use is Godot but they force you to use their own engine or UE or (god forbid) Unity
Gotta love how a lot of people in the comments are quick to jump at the idea chinese Unity devs might be violating Epic's copyright and not, you know, they have talented (and dedicated) enough developers working for a company (with a seemingly more focused vision than western Unity) that sees a potential for developing similar tools for such a large market as China because, apparently, Epic cracked the ONLY way to implement such tools on an engine and it's impossible for others to do so without copyright violations involved... especially in *shudders* China. I mean, if I'm proven wrong, so be it, but when it involves companies as big as these ones, I just doubt copyright infringement can go unnoticed.
Again, if tech was their priority, I am pretty sure they will be able to do legal walk-around or even come with something new. The company just seems to want to go easy path last years, so there is huge chance, they went easy path in this features too. And sure, China has long history of innovation and no evidence of copying western products.
They no doubt have talented and dedicated devs, nobody thinks they are a bunch of cavemen banging on keyboards with rocks and copy pasting code. Utilizing others work doesn't contradict that and they work in a system that encourages that as they are their own country with their own laws so it's perfectly legal there. Of course they will integrate features that would get them sued to oblivion if done outside of China.
@@vin7524 Feel free to correct me if I'm not getting this correctly, but AFAIK, "taking" a feature from one piece of software to another is not as simple as Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V a piece of code. There's a lot involved to just make it work, much less work well. If we were talking about a brand new engine that came out of nowhere, fine. But we are talking about feature implemented on a fork of Unity which works pretty differently to Unreal. At worst, this could be "reverse engineering" of those features which, in that case, it would be a perfectly legitimate development. To me, it seems quite evident that Unity China is following a bery different work ethic that main Unity, so I don't think this would be far fetched.
@@Diegorskysp17 Of course they have slightly different base that to implement it on. But both are working with same principles and are even written in same language. You still can steal feature's source code by decoupling it from its original base and align it to another one. It does not need to be 1:1 copy-paste. I guess exact principles for realisation has been patented and not general principle (maybe you will prove me wrong if you are familiar in this field and find proof it is not). And statement that "reverse engineering" is perfectly legitimate is crazy. Also they even do not need to bother with reverse engineering as they have full source code available on github.
@@DireSwift Like I replied to another person here, in my (admittedly quite limited) understanding of software development, just the sheer complexity of integrating Nanite and Lumen from Unreal to Unity would mean that you are, at worst, reverse engineering the thing. I'm not sure how source code access and it's "licensing" works tho, so I won't get there.
Do you really want to install spyware, and build spyware into the runtime? You could end up being the guy in court, answering question about whether you spy for China or not, just because of a non released experimental feature.
@TheIncredibleAverage Virtualized Micropolygon Geometry (Nanite) and Ray-Traced Dynamic Global Illumination (Lumen) are not invented by Epic Games either. There are many free white papers and even pseudo code samples from nVidia and other sources on the internet. Why do they need to spy on Epic Games? By the way Tencent is a major shareholder of Epic Games.
8:32 Based on that comment, I'm guessing no game made with Tuanjie will be released in the West. That also means this version will have separate system requirements.
He said "China creators and/or users", not "China creators and users". Also the quotes he used don't even mention users, they just specify the engine is for Chinese creators.
@@Nesuniken That's... semantics. If it says for Chinese creators, then it's likely only going to be for the Chinese market. They could expand further, but legal issues might be present.
That's progress! If the realized that China is way beyond them as far as tech goes and worked in harmony rather than the hostile attitude that prevails, we will all benefit. Maybe sooner than later,
Hmm... why wouldn't Unity want to bring these advanced features back to the rest of the world? Only reason I can think of is copyright. How "clean" is the nanite-like Unity? Is there any possibility that code from Unreal made its way across? (And before anyone points out, clean room reverse engineering is obviously fine, but if you can't establish that legal difference, you open yourself to a potentially ruinous copyright claim even if it's a different language)
Useful for non-gatekeeping sites(like that io site and many non-english main language sites, and p4ytre0n ) that doesn't check if u had legit Unity/license, in fact I think it's only playstore, ios, steam and epic store that checks unity license something am I right? would love to learn more. Also sounds really helpful for beginners(Like the nanite thing to reduce work for LOD, UV wrapping, less optimizing, etc), by the time beginners become pros Unity had probably their own version of nanite &/or Lumen or something.
I quit dealing with Unity back when they announced the China partnership. It's just a front for China to buy the technology and do what they want with it. This happens time after time after time. They used to just steal it but corporations are more than eager to take their money now. What does Unity have to show for it?
Eh, every company says that. They are just saying as of now it's not planned, in the future it may still come though. They are just not ready to make promises, but they would be dumb not to bring it over
Under John's direction Unity had put their own head in the toilet and has refused to stop flushing. Unfortunately the type of John is a porta potty which doesn't actually flush but it does have a golden parachute.
@@lionelt.9124 lmfaoo true unity could have had such a solid future if not for fucked management running it now everything feels uncertain and unreal almost never takes such big L's even godot's future is looking promising
Yup unity is having none of of the developer backlash and decided to purge the team to focus on china. The resources is really better userd there because of cheaper and large labor market.
Unreal also pretty much own by China now, with Tencent owning 40% share. They don't have to steal the code. By the way Virtualized Micropolygon Geometry (Nanite) and Ray-Traced Dynamic Global Illumination (Lumen) are not invented by Epic Games either. Epic just put a fancy name on it.
I wonder if by 2030 Unity will still exist or be bought by another company. Who knows maybe they change for the better or not... or bankrupt and makes the thing open source, but yeah... Unity is on the edge
Good to see our investment in HoYo's games brings developments to an otherwise dying engine. From what I have read, Genshin will get a graphics upgrade in the next update (higher settings or something like that). My 3080 wants to melt rendering all the gorgeous locations in the game, but the mobile-friendly approach keeps it back so far.
Even Godot is better than unity, now lol. Like c'mon man it's 2024. It's serious we still need to think about polycount, lightmaps, baking lights and stuff? I always tried to like unity but it's disappointed me all the time. It's unpredictable and unstable, has lots of unfinished and incompatible tools, the package manager is a mess, and so on
I'm not sure what you're going on about, there might be some unstable things in unity but that's true for any engine and tbh I don't think godot is really a competitior to Unity, godot lacks even the most basic features expected from an engine like a proper asset store, terrain editor, etc..., but all of this is not to support unity's bad financial descisions, but as of right now, I do not think Godot as a software is even remotelly as good as Unity
Unity devs in the comments acting very surprised that the American wing of Unity is just happy taking their money while not bothering to do any work to implement new features. Was this at all a surprise to any of you?
I came to hate all of those big corporations, Apple, Google, Unity, Microsoft, you name it. Too bad we are too entrenched in their technologies with many times without a route for escape.
What. The. Hell. Unity. Why would they not take advantage of the work done in Unity China? Tbh I don't even care about the specific features, even though they are awesome and what we need. I care that Unity is moving so slow, when Unity China demonstrate they have the ability to do good things.

IP competition is just one decent product spread over a dozen companies. You want one streaming service with the best (or your favourite) UX and everything to watch. Even if it's impossible that one engine could suit both Godot and Unreal developers, rendering optimizations like Nanite are beneath that divide. It's an artificial compromise that every developer has to make. Game development is compromised.
It's possible that these feature can't come to the west because they infringe in Epic's patents or copywrite. Being a Chinese company, they could easily ignore western copywrite laws. They could even use code stolen from Epic. That is just the way things are done in China.
@@MonsterJuiced It's those damn asset flippers that make the rest of us indie devs look bad who use assets and actually put in effort and modifes the stuff to make the game look good and actually works. (I use premade assets because I suck at art).

Oh, it's Unity *_based._* So that's like Goo Engine being based on Blender, or most browsers based on Google Chrome. So at this point it's not exactly Unity. It's a separate division altogether after all.
They decided that Unity is too slow with its feature development and decided to build their own Unity

Sounds like a weird ploy for the executives and shareholders to garner the Eastern market - and possibly sell-off to their partners there. Wouldn't even be surprised if that's an announcement post Unity 6.
I'm already learning Unreal Engine. Even if "Unity West" builds these Nanite/Lumen-like features into Unity 6, that doesn't change Unity's completely depraved attitude.
I'm just tired of being disappointed by Unity in so many ways.
Same. Been learning Unreal for the 3D stuff. Staying with Unity only for 2D, since 3D is an absolute pain on their engine. Don't wanna go to Godot till they get the Unity 5 treatment. Which could be a couple of years.

If their management is completely separate from the main branch, *it doesn't surprise me they are doing more powerful improvements given the direction the board has been steering Unity towards since the company went public.* It doesn't even take a business genius to see the engine could use these features more than live service support. It feels like the quality and competitivity of the engine became secondary. *And now they are even charging $250 per seat for Odin, which is an asset that mainly just makes the workflow of the engine better, but is just not worth it on top of Pro and every other cost you need to deal with to make the engine good enough to be competitive. They shoot themselves on the foot.*
Unity devs can finally jump to an engine that's just like Unity with nice features..... I wonder what else is in the Taunjie engine roadmap, perhaps Unity users should also all group up and chip in to buy the source code so they can implement all the features and fix the wont fix bugs aswel.
this is the passion i am looking for. haha
China requiring foreign companies to start joint venture is very smart on their part. The company gets to profit from a huge market, and China gets to keep some of the know-how. I bet many other well known companies already do that, but we just don't know about it
Pretty sure it’s required by law, like EVERY foreign company has to do that.
But like you china can keep the know how and have some control over the company, and reason foreign companies allow this is because China gives them much higher percentage of overall returns and favorable treatment.
Thats ging on for years now...
This is not true. The Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (WFOE or WOFE) are a thing for a long time now JV is not mandatory.
So it's basically a beta-testground for Unity's upcoming features, such as the dynamic LoD system which is suposed to rival nanite.
unity sure bring some interesting news
In a way it makes sense. Both Unity China and UE are own by companies that make games while Unity Technologies does not. Unity Technologies only needs to care about making money from Unity engine but the game companies care more about making money from their games and reducing development cost. That creates different priorities and incentives.
Could this be backported? Maybe but judging from the version numbering change they probably didn't intend to maintain compatibility.
It does not make any sense.
Unity has only source of income: the unity platform, so they have more incentive to create a better platform.
Instead Unity China and EU consider that both platforms are a side-project.
@@eng3d Their only incentive for creating a better platform is having a strong enough competitor. Who do you think those are? Look at what happened with CPUs when AMD finally came out with Ryzen versus before when it was basically all Intel.
On the other hand for the companies that make games they can either save money by getting the same work done with fewer workers or getting more work done with the same amount of workers. Those are very tangible motives.
For Unity it would be much harder to prove that any particular feature will earn them more money. They can't implement it and then go "hey we are going to charge you more money now that Unity has this feature".
The only thing that would pressure Unity is a competitor offering this feature which could cause existing clients to switch over. Who do you think is that competitor?

Whoever still uses Unity… my honest condolences. No bad words. People still seem to love it. I can't share this experience after two Unity projects with 40+ people on each project.
What bad about unity? I'm really asking out of curiosity
@@hop3studio511 In short words: It's a difficult relationship. I have been a 3D artist for over 26 years, started with Unity around 12 years ago with a small project. If you don't have any programming knowledge, it was difficult to find support in any way.
The forums were toxic several years ago, and even on simple questions you got responses like: If you can't do that easy thing, better stop trying to make a game.
In comparison: Whatever question I ask on UE Forums and certain chat solutions, more than often I get response and help from Epic Devs themselves, sometimes with direct solutions.
Later on, on bigger commercial projects, we ran into bugs that were never fixed for a decade. We had to use third-party solutions to get WYSIWYG into the normal editor. Things you get out of the box with Unreal Engine.
I am not UE fanboying at this point - but pointing out that Unity struggles to find a sweet spot that seems more than easy for Epic Games. That involves all sides: engine, devs and the community.
There are many nice games being done with Unity! There are many very talented people. But they know this engine from the inside out, the odds and probably how to deal with several obstacles. Obstacles that can cost a ton of money and time.
I wish Unity all the best, but I closed that chapter for myself.
why not? apple sold iphone with dual sim slot only in china, tiktok has different version for china, windows for china doesnt need tpm, etc
Do you know what a tpm is for?
It's the chip that holds the keys to encrypt/decrypt the system. It's the same component that keeps your Bitcoin and shtcons pk save in a hardware wallet.
So your argument is, theirs is better because it has no security?
@@Qewbicle the problem is we can't trust manufactures that make tpm
@Qewbicle The problem is that we can't trust the manufacturers who make tpm
The moment I read the words "Unity" and "China", Genshin is the first that came to mind. Obviously this is targeted to those companies making games like Genshin or Honkai Impact as they were all made in Unity and make tons of money. I fear that Unity will forever have two versions, but I still hope it also gets released in other countries.
Honkai Impact is actually made in Unreal Engine. Star Rail is in Unity though.
@@ViRiXDreamcore I was referring to the newest honkai impact, I think it was Star rail sorry
I mean...there is no actual problem developing and producing a game with it OUTSIDE china right? this is what i'm curios of cause Nanite and Lumen are pretty hard to pass on tbh
I wonder, is there any reason not to use Unreal if you are so interested in it's key features?
@@Tomas9970_1 because I have 10+ years unity experience and 9.5k$ in assets and tools?
What a stupid question and even stupider who liked you comment
@@Tomas9970_1 not the original poster, but I just wanted to mention documentation. The biggest hurdle I see everyone fighting for unreal is its a massive engine with horrible documentation. It's been a while since I've looked into it so maybe they are better now, but for someone just trying to get into the engine getting told to "just read the sourcecode" is enough for me to walk away.
According to the announcement. "Unity will retain majority ownership and control of Unity China, which will operate solely within the Greater China region".
That means they will only sell this version to someone in the "Greater China region" whatever that means.

@@marksmithcollins what?
Gotta love how a lot of people in the comments are quick to jump at the idea chinese Unity devs might be violating Epic's copyright and not, you know, they have talented (and dedicated) enough developers working for a company (with a seemingly more focused vision than western Unity) that sees a potential for developing similar tools for such a large market as China because, apparently, Epic cracked the ONLY way to implement such tools on an engine and it's impossible for others to do so without copyright violations involved... especially in *shudders* China.
I mean, if I'm proven wrong, so be it, but when it involves companies as big as these ones, I just doubt copyright infringement can go unnoticed.
Again, if tech was their priority, I am pretty sure they will be able to do legal walk-around or even come with something new. The company just seems to want to go easy path last years, so there is huge chance, they went easy path in this features too.
And sure, China has long history of innovation and no evidence of copying western products.
They no doubt have talented and dedicated devs, nobody thinks they are a bunch of cavemen banging on keyboards with rocks and copy pasting code. Utilizing others work doesn't contradict that and they work in a system that encourages that as they are their own country with their own laws so it's perfectly legal there. Of course they will integrate features that would get them sued to oblivion if done outside of China.
@@vin7524 Feel free to correct me if I'm not getting this correctly, but AFAIK, "taking" a feature from one piece of software to another is not as simple as Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V a piece of code. There's a lot involved to just make it work, much less work well. If we were talking about a brand new engine that came out of nowhere, fine. But we are talking about feature implemented on a fork of Unity which works pretty differently to Unreal.
At worst, this could be "reverse engineering" of those features which, in that case, it would be a perfectly legitimate development.
To me, it seems quite evident that Unity China is following a bery different work ethic that main Unity, so I don't think this would be far fetched.
@@Diegorskysp17 Of course they have slightly different base that to implement it on. But both are working with same principles and are even written in same language. You still can steal feature's source code by decoupling it from its original base and align it to another one. It does not need to be 1:1 copy-paste. I guess exact principles for realisation has been patented and not general principle (maybe you will prove me wrong if you are familiar in this field and find proof it is not).
And statement that "reverse engineering" is perfectly legitimate is crazy. Also they even do not need to bother with reverse engineering as they have full source code available on github.
@@DireSwift Like I replied to another person here, in my (admittedly quite limited) understanding of software development, just the sheer complexity of integrating Nanite and Lumen from Unreal to Unity would mean that you are, at worst, reverse engineering the thing. I'm not sure how source code access and it's "licensing" works tho, so I won't get there.
So can we get a torrent of it???? MEGASHARE?
Do you really want to install spyware, and build spyware into the runtime?
You could end up being the guy in court, answering question about whether you spy for China or not, just because of a non released experimental feature.
This guy is doing some cool Lumen / Nanite kinda stuff for Unity: www.youtube.com/@ChristianKahler/videos
Should do that for Godot instead.
Seems like they got a few capable engineers over there. Something Unity hasn't seen in a while ;)
@TheIncredibleAverage Virtualized Micropolygon Geometry (Nanite) and Ray-Traced Dynamic Global Illumination (Lumen) are not invented by Epic Games either. There are many free white papers and even pseudo code samples from nVidia and other sources on the internet. Why do they need to spy on Epic Games? By the way Tencent is a major shareholder of Epic Games.
@TheIncredibleAverage LOL
Can you respect the engineers? They don’t have the fault of having a terrible leadership, if anything , blame the ceo and the board team.
They're definitely more united right?
Where can I get the Chinese verison?
did u found it?
The Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (WFOE or WOFE) are a thing for a long time now JV is not mandatory.
I can hope that they add these features to the rest of Unity, not just Taunjie. Not that it’s going to happen.
if it has no runtime fee and has english interface maybe its time to try
I made right choice ditching Unity.
8:32 Based on that comment, I'm guessing no game made with Tuanjie will be released in the West. That also means this version will have separate system requirements.
He said "China creators and/or users", not "China creators and users". Also the quotes he used don't even mention users, they just specify the engine is for Chinese creators.
@@Nesuniken That's... semantics. If it says for Chinese creators, then it's likely only going to be for the Chinese market. They could expand further, but legal issues might be present.
@@Cabolt44What legal issues?
technically virtual geometry is more of gpu drive culling and rendering with mesh shader(way too off topic , but godot has an pr for mesh shader rn
That's right, nVidia already had mesh shader demos. In principle they are based on the classic LOD system, but in a dynamic way.
it would be illegal to distribute your game so its pointless.
not to mention that isnt so simple without source code access
That's progress! If the realized that China is way beyond them as far as tech goes and worked in harmony rather than the hostile attitude that prevails, we will all benefit. Maybe sooner than later,
People's Republic of China + Unity = the Unity features that are sorely needed.
surely no copyright infringement is involved
Virtualized Micropolygon Geometry (Nanite) and Ray-Traced Dynamic Global Illumination (Lumen) are not invented by Epic Games either.
I wish that Unreal Engine has c# support. I really, really wish that...
Hmm... why wouldn't Unity want to bring these advanced features back to the rest of the world? Only reason I can think of is copyright. How "clean" is the nanite-like Unity? Is there any possibility that code from Unreal made its way across? (And before anyone points out, clean room reverse engineering is obviously fine, but if you can't establish that legal difference, you open yourself to a potentially ruinous copyright claim even if it's a different language)
Useful for non-gatekeeping sites(like that io site and many non-english main language sites, and p4ytre0n ) that doesn't check if u had legit Unity/license, in fact I think it's only playstore, ios, steam and epic store that checks unity license something am I right? would love to learn more.
Also sounds really helpful for beginners(Like the nanite thing to reduce work for LOD, UV wrapping, less optimizing, etc), by the time beginners become pros Unity had probably their own version of nanite &/or Lumen or something.
I quit dealing with Unity back when they announced the China partnership. It's just a front for China to buy the technology and do what they want with it. This happens time after time after time. They used to just steal it but corporations are more than eager to take their money now. What does Unity have to show for it?
Tuanjie is the translation for Unity
now, after console exclusive games, and region locked games, we have region locked features for game engines... nice...
Eh, every company says that. They are just saying as of now it's not planned, in the future it may still come though. They are just not ready to make promises, but they would be dumb not to bring it over

Is this stolen code from the unreal engine 5, being fudged into Unity?
Unreal also pretty much own by China now, with Tencent owning 40% share. They don't have to steal the code. By the way Virtualized Micropolygon Geometry (Nanite) and Ray-Traced Dynamic Global Illumination (Lumen) are not invented by Epic Games either. Epic just put a fancy name on it.
NFS mobile is only available on china too.
Do chinese people know how to code these stuff?
I wonder if by 2030 Unity will still exist or be bought by another company. Who knows maybe they change for the better or not... or bankrupt and makes the thing open source, but yeah... Unity is on the edge
More likely they won't release the source code at all. It's a private company, not a charity.
@@Cabolt44 Well then if the company dies, the engine dies too sad for that happen if it happens
There's nothing subtle about that shade.
Good to see our investment in HoYo's games brings developments to an otherwise dying engine.
From what I have read, Genshin will get a graphics upgrade in the next update (higher settings or something like that). My 3080 wants to melt rendering all the gorgeous locations in the game, but the mobile-friendly approach keeps it back so far.
Unity is a misnomer now.
They have been Disunity the moment they took government redistribution.
Dis-unity / Division / Tribes would definitely be a better name.
Even Godot is better than unity, now lol.
Like c'mon man it's 2024. It's serious we still need to think about polycount, lightmaps, baking lights and stuff?
I always tried to like unity but it's disappointed me all the time. It's unpredictable and unstable, has lots of unfinished and incompatible tools, the package manager is a mess, and so on
I'm not sure what you're going on about, there might be some unstable things in unity but that's true for any engine and tbh I don't think godot is really a competitior to Unity, godot lacks even the most basic features expected from an engine like a proper asset store, terrain editor, etc..., but all of this is not to support unity's bad financial descisions, but as of right now, I do not think Godot as a software is even remotelly as good as Unity
There’s nothing united about unity at this point
Why is this not available in the west ? Wth
I use unreal. Im just hoping 5.4 brings some nice performance improvements
As of the current preview it has interesting additions but nothing concrete.
as far as i have seen - easy rigging, lets go.
#DISUNITY

Unless they're Unity China
IP competition is just one decent product spread over a dozen companies. You want one streaming service with the best (or your favourite) UX and everything to watch. Even if it's impossible that one engine could suit both Godot and Unreal developers, rendering optimizations like Nanite are beneath that divide. It's an artificial compromise that every developer has to make.
Game development is compromised.
Meanwhile, Unity, with it's 7,000 employees:

We need no normalize indie devs not using Unity, they are totally against your own interests
It's possible that these feature can't come to the west because they infringe in Epic's patents or copywrite. Being a Chinese company, they could easily ignore western copywrite laws. They could even use code stolen from Epic. That is just the way things are done in China.
I think Unity users are not interested in Lumen and Nanite as they don't want to limit their target audience to high-end rigs.
That's true, they just want to make their low poly stylised unoptimised asset flips
