6000.5.9f1 Release Notes

API Changes

  • Editor: Added: Project Auditor: add migration areas so we can add migration rules.

Fixes

  • Accessibility: Fixed AssistiveSupport.screenReaderStatusChanged not being supported by Narrator (the Windows built-in screen reader). (UUM-147175)

  • AI: As a result of an unsupported configuration, a NavMeshAgent would try to separate from its own NavMeshObstacle component by jumping in arbitrary directions. Now the agent moves in one stable direction. (UUM-141803)

  • AI: NavMeshAgents created or teleported inside box NavMeshObstacles could not move out of the obstacles. (UUM-146477)

  • DX12: Fixed an issue where VRAM used by small textures wasn't released back to the GPU driver after the textures were destroyed when using the Direct3D12 graphics API on Windows.
    You can now tune the small-texture heap size with the d3d12-small-texture-tiles-per-heap boot config parameter to balance VRAM reclamation against heap-allocation overhead. (UUM-142284)

  • Editor: Fixed a crash in ATG when using fallbacks whose Source Font File is missing. (UUM-148158)

  • Editor: Fixed a typo in the services-gateway fallback URL that could cause sign-in and Cloud services to fail on Editors launched via Hub when the remote config CDN was unreachable. (UUM-149207)

  • Editor: Fixed an issue where Shift+clicking a prefab child in the Scene view selected the child object instead of the prefab instance root. (UUM-148884)

  • Editor: Fixed an issue where updating a package while an MPPM clone was active caused the clone to crash. (UUM-148292)

  • GI: Fixed objects without valid lightmap UVs being removed from baked lighting with an "Every triangle in the Mesh UV layout has zero area" warning. (UUM-148666)
