Unity Crashing since OUYA Integration

Bovine · June 2013

Hi All

Since starting integrating the OUYA ODK Unity crashes every time I try and go to a breakpoint. It was find before but I have recently upgraded to the newer version, 4.1.3f3.

Is anyone else having this problem? Is there anything I shouldn't be doing #if defing out? - that said I cannot get it to break in one of the samples even :/

Thanks

4.1.3 is still in beta. And if you have access to the beta the mailing list has several posts about the crashing breakpoint issue. I don't think it's specific to the ouya-unity-plugin.

That said, I had serious performance issues opening Unity 4.X on my old Macbook PRO until installing 4.1.3 which worked normally. The Mac editor before 4.1.3 was not even responsive.

Hmmm still in beta? I just downloaded the latest version from Unity's website.

Well look at that.... Thanks for the heads up. They need to email the beta list when these things go live...

No problem, at least I know it's Unity :D

Tbh, common issue I've found between versions, some are (like this one I suspect) a bit annoying - hard to go a point release without setting a breakpoint!

Are you using the MonoDevelop debugger or the Visual Studio debugger? There are alternatives...

Bovine · June 2013

Mono, I'm on OSX, though I didn't realise you could use the VS debugger.... hmmm

Oh yes - http://unityvs.com/

:D

How do you like it? Is it more reliable? Holy cow, I'm just thinking how life would be a lot easier in VS

Can I safely open the solution project without breaking it?

I wonder, would maybe be a bit odd, but I could do this with parallels coherence mode maybe hmmm

=P~

I typically on the Mac run Visual Studio in VMWare Fusion in a Window. With the Unity editor running on Mac. I made a custom exporter for that. However, UnityVS has it's own exporter. I haven't tried using UnityVS on the Mac... Not sure if that works? But I do know it's possible since VMWare has command-line hooks that could make it possible...

hmmm I am looking for a trial. It would be good to get reliable debugging and a more familiar editor...

Bovine · June 2013

So you ARE running Unity on the mac and debugging it from UnityVS installed on a VM in VMWare? Do you use VMWare's 'Unity' mode? :P

I see this in their FAQ:

6. Can I use UnityVS to debug Unity running on OS X?

UnityVS comes with a preview of this feature.

tgraupmann · June 2013

Haven't tried that yet, but good to know!

Bovine · June 2013

Well I posted on two gamedev FB groups about it and I've bought a copy and already another member is buying a copy :D

I just noticed 4.1.4 is available for download:

Thanks, Tim

And with some useful fixes: R22 and debugger crash - I managed to encounter two out of the three things they've fixed

Howdy, Stranger!
