A new version of Mesh Baker LOD has been released. This includes the ability to translate the world to avoid floating point precision errors when the user is far from the origin.

A new tutorial video has been added demonstrating the new clustering features for Mesh Baker.

We are excited to announce that a new clustering component MB2_MeshBakerGrouper has been added to Mesh Baker. This component makes it easy to combine meshes that are near each other. I will post a tutorial video over the next few days showing how the new features work.

These are some of the best resources I have found for optimizing games in Unity. The Unite videos have some good tips that are not in the manual. Be sure to take a look at them. Make sure you have read this section of the Unity Manual http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/OptimizingGraphicsPerformance.html Here are some good videos in the Unite…

Using Mesh Baker to quickly create atlases and copies of prefabs that can use the atlas to take advantage of Unity’s static and dynamic batching

Here is an experiment mixing physics and animation. Simple PD Controllers (springs) are used to constrain the bones to an animated skeleton. The rigid bodies are not constrained to each other. More info on stable PD controllers described here http://www.digitalopus.ca/site/pd-controllers/

Mesh Baker 3.3.4 has been submitted to the asset store. Improvements: Texture colors bleed into atlas padding Meshes can be baked without creating atlases if all meshes use the same material New script for culling animations on combined meshes Buffers are cleared after baking to reduce scene size and memory use Mesh Baker is available…

Here is a video of greenhouse space station modules being destroyed by a meteor swarm. Video clip from unnamed, upcoming space game.

Here is the hyperspace gate for a new game I am working on. Don’t have a name for the game yet.

I have been keeping notes on my PC about best practices and undocumented Unity details. Others may benefit from this so I have decides to put these notes online. My first page is about rigidbodies.
