Unity 5.1.0 Beta 5

Changes

• Mecanim: Changes in the behaviour for humanoid controller with generic clip animating a human transform. Before the generic animation for the Human transform had a higher priority than the human animation. Now the Human animation always have the highest priority for humanoid rig overriding any generic animation for this transform, you should see a warning in the inspector if such case is detected with the name of the faulty animation clip and which transform is affected.

Improvements

• Graphics: Command Buffers can be set on Lights, see LightEvent enum and Light.AddCommandBuffer.
• XboxOne: Unity is now built with the April 2015 XDK. You will need to install the April 2015 XDK on your PC and use the same or later recovery on your console.
• XboxOne: Added functions to XboxOnePLM (GetActivationUri, GetActivationTileId, GetActivationArguments) to retrieve cached values. We still recommend listening to OnActivationEvent in your Start() frame, and processing them that way, but this provides an alternative for last-provided values.
• Editor: When creating new clip from animation window, default to previously used path
• Windows Standalone: Hint to AMD driver that discrete GPU should be used, rather than integrated GPU.
• Animation Window: Dialog for the generated clip path/name when GameObject is initialized for animation.

• OpenGL: Fix crash in vertex stream management.
• Linux: Fix applying vsync and antialiasing changes without changing quality level
• Linux: Support more standard screen resolutions.
• MonoDevelop: Fixed issue with Attach to Process dialog making MonoDevelop unresponsive on OSX.
• MonoDevelop: Fix issue with file tabs being unresponsive after using auto-hide of panels.
• Serialization: Reapplied part of non-deterministic material serialization fix, but without increasing memory usage during building.
• XboxOne: GI files that are part of the mainData will be included in the package manifest.

• VR: Fix performance issue on certain hardware.
• Editor: Fix Player Settings UI truncation.
• Windows: Standalone player will not crash on Windows 8.1 or earlier if Direct3D 12 is chosen as the desired graphics API. Instead it will fall back to either Direct3D 11 or 9.

Known Issues

• Editor: Game View is black when using Image effects and Anti Aliasing.
• Launcher: Sign in state is not remembered when cookies are flushed.
• License: Return license does not work if you manually activated your license.
