Version 2.0.1 is now available for download on the Unity Asset Store!

Hi Tony,

Thanks for the update. I have a small doubt though. I guess that you'll work on that 'search & replace' feature we talked about in some time and at your own pace (no pressure here), but I'm wondering if you have planned for it to be ported to 1.8.2 ?

I ask because I've tried to migrate to 2.0.1 (beta) and my sequencer shortcuts text got all scrambled. So I got back to 1.8.2 at that time, to avoid spending more time in troubleshooting.

I guess I'll try again in the near future, but it would be good to have a Plan B.

Thank you!

Hi,

I didn't have time to get global search & replace into version 1.8.3 or 2.0.1. It's scheduled for 1.8.4 and 2.0.2.

You may still be interested in some changes in 1.8.3. Here are the release notes:

• Fixed: LuaInterpreter updated to properly handle OS language number formats in .NET4.6.
• Fixed: Dialogue Editor’s Sort > Reorder IDs > All Conversations only updated current conversation; now updates all.
• Improved: Added several keyboard shortcuts to node editor.
• Improved: Added node editor options: confirm deletion on/off, trim whitespace when splitting pipes.

The upgrade process from 1.x to 2.x requires extra steps. This may be why your Sequencer Shortcuts weren't working.

I upgraded to 1.8.3 just today, after realizing you've uploaded it.

Regarding my upgrade attempt, I followed the upgrade guide you mention. Anyway, I could have done something wrong. I'll try again at some point in the future to confirm.

Thanks!

Did the sequencer shortcuts turns into incomprehensible numbers, like 12b37890a02d8e907123? If so, then if you try to upgrade again in the future, please try changing Serialization to Force Text manually before upgrading.

Hi Again,

I'm still having an issue with the Typewriter script - in that I just get an empty script on my component.

Other that the TMP_PRESENT added and the TMP add on installed is there anything else required to get it working?

Edit:

Just updated to 2.02 and it's working. I'm sure I was on 2.01 but maybe I was still on 2.00.



Nathan

If you're using Unity 2018, you may very well have been on 2.0.1. I'm still trying to figure out why the script sometimes requires an extra recompile for Unity to recognize it when using the package manage version of TMP, even with TMP_PRESENT defined.
