Unity Compatibility

Minimum Unity: 2023.1 (1f1)

Features

  • Added error message in UI if full output file path exceeds 259 characters.
  • The AOV Image Recorder now supports recording multiple AOVs at once and writes multi-part EXR files.
  • - Added the option to export AOVs of each frame to a single multi-part EXR file or to multiple EXR files.
  • - On upgrade, AOV Recorder settings seamlessly translate the former single AOV drop-down selection into the corresponding new AOV checkbox.
  • - Added categories to AOV selection UI for improved conceptual grouping and multi-selection.
  • - Revised all AOV labels and added tooltips for each AOV and category.
  • The AOV Image Recorder supports additional compression options: Zips, B44, B44a, DWAA and DWAB.
  • Added a tutorial in documentation to set up a Unity project with API scripting for starting recordings via a command line.

📈 Improvements

  • Removed resolution automatic rounding to the nearest even number when Movie Recorder uses MP4 codec and "Match Window Size" output resolution.
  • Removed JPEG export option from the AOV Recorder.
  • The Ambient Occlusion AOV was outputting the contents of the occlusion material map. Now, the AOV outputs the result of the Screen Space Ambient Occlusion post-processing pass.
  • Removed two unnecessary composited Lighting AOVs (Diffuse Lighting and Specular Lighting) from the exportable AOVs.
  • Refactored the documentation around the two recording frameworks available and the different use cases provided as examples.
  • Updated the documentation architecture overall to improve navigation and findability.

🔧 Bug Fixes

  • Prevent video output from being corrupted when generated via a Recorder Clip run through a Scene loaded in Play mode.
  • Ensure the project uses the right RenderPipeline settings at all time: quality RenderPipeline settings or default RenderPipeline settings.
  • Ensure that the status messages at the bottom of the Recorder window are always readable even if the window is small.
  • Fix the visibility of the Preset icon in Light mode.
