Using Prefab Upload and Scene Upload Depending On Your Needs
There are two ways to upload assets from Unity to STYLY using the Unity Plugin for STYLY. The two ways are, prefab upload and scene upload. The system behaviour differs, so please take note of the following points.
Prefab Upload | Scene Upload | |
Uploading assets per object Colliders are auto-applied Prefab upload is usually enough |
Features | Uploading the whole scene By using scene upload, you can upload a whole scene created in Unity to STYLY No colliders are applied You cannot place multiple scenes in a single STYLY scene |
You can move the asset around freely in STYLY Because the upload is per object, moving it around is easy Colliders are auto-applied, so you don’t need to set colliders in Unity |
Merits | Most settings you created using Unity are applied to STYLY too |
Colliders are auto-applied, so it is not suited for complex scenes using a lot of colliders | Demerits | You cannot move the uploaded scene around the scene in STYLY You need to plan and create the scene with the STYLY start position in mind |
It is suited for assets you plan to move around in STYLY | Pros and Cons | It is suited for complex scenes created in Unity (ex)Interactive scenes using colliders, or scenes using physics such as gravity Not suited for assets you want to move around and set using STYLY |
Since colliders are set automatically, there may be confilcts with Playmaker Trigger Events | Cautions | You need to delete the Camera in the Unity Scene before uploading Daydream/GearVR are not supported The upload may fail if the size is too huge |
