Go to the Unity Download, click on Download (Win) button then select Unity Installer.

For personal use, the personal edition is completely sufficient.įollow the following steps to download and install the personal edition of Unity: Unity Personal is completely free, while the Unity Professional comes at a monthly fee of $125 and Unity Plus at a monthly fee of $25. Unity provides three different versions: Unity Personal, Unity Plus, and Unity Pro. Software installation is a very simple and straightforward process these days, and Unity is no exception. Before we begin to use Unity, we first need to download and install it. If I then try creating a new project, the window opens up but : if I rename the folder and move it to '~/Documents' and open '~/Documents/unityEngine/', the item in the list will be called 'Documents') : then it just adds a new item named after the grandparent of that item (if I select '/tmp/unityhub-9fbe5a20-6305-11ea-bdba-858cc54fd2fc/' it will be called 'tmp', and I can no longer add another item from the entire /tmp tree because itt considers that it is the 'same item'. With what seems like the right set of files : '', 'UnitySetup-Linux-IL2CPP-Support-for-Editor-2020.1.', ect. If I try to open the folder I find in /tmp 'unityhub-9fbe5a20-6305-11ea-bdba-858cc54fd2fc' If I, at this point, choose the project tab and hit 'new' it still rejects me : Once the download finishes it looks like this: Then I have to select and download a unity version : I first have to add a license, then I have to set the download folder (which is ignored since it downloads to /tmp anyways) I try to use the 'Unity Hub' which is the recommended (and only?) method to install Unity on ubuntu. It's a v2 and it does have it's own quirks. Also it looks and behaves nothing alike visually. The launcher is no longer missing any dependencies pre-launch, it runs out-of-the-box on a vanilla ubuntu 19.10 with nothing else changed. This guy has got the right idea!! if a developer makes a native solution for you, you try that first.īut as you can see in his stackoverflow answer and video: things have changed even more still since the release of that launcher. ( YouTube video by the same guy since the stackoverflow and source he links names match and since the ubuntu desktop cusomisations are exactly the same in the youtube video and the gif). It is not the prefered and recomended install method for linux/ubuntu by the unity devs. they used to post bimonthly, the last post and build dates back to a year. The devs have stopped posting builds there. I tried this solution and it does not work.
