2020.3.38f1 Release Notes

Features

  • Editor: add editor analytics event tracking for "Refresh access" and "New link..." button click

  • Version Control: Added notification banner on the status bar for live updates

Improvements

  • Mono: Add support for direct ETW profiler integration on Windows Desktop for managed code, with no plugin required.

  • UI: The TextureImporterInspector will now disable the "sRGB (Color Texture)" toggle for HDR targets instead of silently overriding. (reflected in API docs) (UUM-7553)

Changes

  • IAP: # Changelog
    ## [4.3.0] - 2022-06-16
    ### Added

    • GooglePlay - API IGooglePlayConfiguration.SetQueryProductDetailsFailedListener(Action) called when Unity IAP fails to query product details. The Action will be called on each query product details failure with the retry count. See documentation "Store Guides" > "Google Play" for a sample usage.
  • Version Control: Renamed "Invite members to workspace" option to "Invite members to organization"

Fixes

  • 2D: Fixed case in VirtualRedirectTransfer when loading AssetBundle while entering Play Mode. (UUM-2207)

  • 2D: Mouseclick with Alt/Option on a sprite layer in the Visibility pane does not toggle out of hide state (DANB-67)

  • Android: Blind fix for an issue where executing Android SDK tool command would fail with missing java error. For ex., "Unable to locate a Java Runtime". Even though everything is set correctly in Preferences->External Tools->JDK. Also during the failure, Unity will now print environment variables thus helping identifying such issues in the future. (UUM-2106)

  • Android: Fix overflow of MotionEvent global references (UUM-8438)

  • Android: Fixed an Android audio crash when targeting API Level 31 and running on an Android 12 device.

(UUM-5652)

  • Android: Fixed building exported Unity project in Android Studio (UUM-520)

  • Android: Fixed Screen.safeArea returning wrong height when building Native app with Unity as a Library. (UUM-515)

  • Editor: Fixed an issue where certain properties could not be excluded in the TextureImporterInspector. (UUM-3787)

  • Editor: Fixed crash when calling GUIClip.SetMatrix early in the domain reload. (UUM-2217)

  • GI: Fix a crash: GetManagerFromContext: pointer to object of manager 'LightmapSettings' is NULL (table index 22)" error when creating a new scene (UUM-9213)

  • GI: Fixed issues with overlapping lights using shadowmask and wide spot angles. (UUM-2761)

  • GI: [GPU PLM] OpenCL shader loading time in new projects has become significantly slower. Fixed regression by speeding up OpenCL shader loading stage by caching binaries in the GICache. (UUM-1350)

  • Graphics: 2D Textures with multiple faces or images now correctly update their hash values when any face/image is changed and not just the first one (UUM-2506)

  • Graphics: Fixed a regression where calling the the Texture2D.Resize method with a Texture format parameter caused the underlying GraphicsFormat to flip color spaces on each call. (UUM-1804)

  • Graphics: Fixed AssetPreviews + texture preview window for ASTCnm/Plain normal maps. (UUM-7833)

  • Graphics: Fixed numerous cases where mini-thumbnails would not match the expected visual look when using linear project color space. (UUM-7833)

  • Graphics: Switching vsync mode while in a Metal player could sometimes cause a freeze due to the vsync status not syncing correctly before waiting on the frame present - this has been fixed. (UUM-5547)

  • Graphics: The generated mini-thumbnail of TextureGenerationOutput will now properly set its expected stored color space. (UUM-7833)
