I am so happy ~ I did buy the tool before but so glad that a refund is to be made~Kore5 is right, you can use Bolt for your game, that´s fine, but write code will be always a more efficient and better way to approach your hardware and use your time (write is speedy compare to move nodes and blocks), that´s why a lot of people hates the poor documentation made by Unity about coding shaders for the new URP and the HD pipeline in favor of shader graph.well, you can still use the traditional method in coding and there is no harm in that! It enables Unity users to create logic for games or applications without writing code.

We want people to feel empowered to make amazing things and Bolt is a way to accelerate that mission. In the final version, the corresponding code of any selected node gets We want students, teachers and professionals to be able to use Bolt to learn not only programming concepts, but also the actual C# syntax, a leading language in the industry.

Every graph you create in Bolt will be automatically converted to human-readable C# code for maximum performance. Well, so do we. Every graph you create in Bolt will be automatically converted to human-readable C# code for maximum performance. With Bolt 2, you'll get the ease of use of visual scripting, with the performance of C++ code.

Then, thanks to Unity's IL2CPP, this C# code will be converted to C++, reaching The performance gains are massive, for example with a typical method call:But C# script generation brings more than performance improvements. Unity is the ultimate game development platform. Unity remains committed to providing a core experience of visual scripting in Unity for all types of projects, regardless of the architecture. To learn more about Bolt, find tutorials, and find links to the community, check out the We believe the world is a better place with more creators in it, and we know that visual scripting is a critical part of being able to create amazing things with Unity. We will keep you in the loop with a transparent development process and frequent activity updates.

Anyone facing this issue?

As well as the immediate availability of the tool, also announced was that Bolt 2 will also be free once it is released.

Hey, Unity 2018.2.6 with bolt in editor so lagging performance while editing graph.

It would be awesome more tutorials about this to compare vs coding as usual :)Those are great news! The performance gains are massive, for example with a … Also the sentence “We are actively working on refining the synergy between our various node-based tools so that visual programming gets progressively unified across the engine” sparked joy for meUnity want to reach UE but UE is the best engine.Unity can’t reach UEThanks, Unity Technologies this is realy awesome !!!

The The code literally writes itself as you drop in nodes and make connections. Expect an email communication with more information within the next two weeks. Bolt is just a toolVisual scripting does have its place.
