Master performance optimization for Unity3D applications with tips
and techniques that cover every aspect of the Unity3D Engine About
This Book * Optimize CPU cycles, memory usage, and GPU throughput
for any Unity3D application * Master optimization techniques across
all Unity Engine features including Scripting, Asset Management,
Physics, Graphics Features, and Shaders * A practical guide to
exploring Unity Engine's many performance-enhancing methods Who
This Book Is For This book is intended for intermediate and
advanced Unity developers who have experience with most of Unity's
feature-set, and who want to maximize the performance of their
game. Familiarity with the C# language will be needed. What You
Will Learn * Use the Unity Profiler to find bottlenecks anywhere in
our application, and discover how to resolve them * Implement
best-practices for C# scripting to avoid common pitfalls * Develop
a solid understanding of the rendering pipeline, and maximize its
performance through reducing draw calls and avoiding fill rate
bottlenecks * Enhance shaders in a way that is accessible to most
developers, optimizing them through subtle yet effective
performance tweaks * Keep our scenes as dynamic as possible by
making the most of the Physics engine * Organize, filter, and
compress our art assets to maximize performance while maintaining
high quality * Pull back the veil on the Mono Framework and the C#
Language to implement low-level enhancements that maximize memory
usage and avoid garbage collection * Get to know the best practices
for project organization to save time through an improved workflow
In Detail Competition within the gaming industry has become
significantly fiercer in recent years with the adoption of game
development frameworks such as Unity3D. Through its massive
feature-set and ease-of-use, Unity helps put some of the best
processing and rendering technology in the hands of hobbyists and
professionals alike. This has led to an enormous explosion of
talent, which has made it critical to ensure our games stand out
from the crowd through a high level of quality. A good user
experience is essential to create a solid product that our users
will enjoy for many years to come. Nothing turns gamers away from a
game faster than a poor user-experience. Input latency, slow
rendering, broken physics, stutters, freezes, and crashes are among
a gamer's worst nightmares and it's up to us as game developers to
ensure this never happens. High performance does not need to be
limited to games with the biggest teams and budgets. Initially, you
will explore the major features of the Unity3D Engine from top to
bottom, investigating a multitude of ways we can improve
application performance starting with the detection and analysis of
bottlenecks. You'll then gain an understanding of possible
solutions and how to implement them. You will then learn everything
you need to know about where performance bottlenecks can be found,
why they happen, and how to work around them. This book gathers a
massive wealth of knowledge together in one place, saving many
hours of research and can be used as a quick reference to solve
specific issues that arise during product development. Style and
approach This book is organized based on the major features of
Unity engine and should be treated as a reference guide. It is
written as a series of investigations into both common and unusual
performance pitfalls, each including a study on why the bottleneck
is causing us problems, and a list of enhancements or features that
can be used to work around them. Differences in effectiveness,
behaviors, or feature-sets between Unity 4.x and Unity 5.x will be
highlighted.
