See in Glossary, but 2048x2048 is the highest available on many graphics cards and platforms. Pixel lighting is calculated at every screen pixel. Pixel size depends on your screen resolution. You can use up to 4096x4096 pixels The smallest unit in a computer image. If you author your textures to a power of two (for example, 512x512 or 256x1024), the textures will be more efficient and won’t need rescaling at build time. It’s always easier to add polygons than take them away. A good rule of thumb is often to start simple and add detail where needed. 726 may not sound like a great deal of polygons, but if this is used 40 times in a level, you will really start to see the savings. See in Glossary has 156 triangles on the right and 726 on the left. Nurbs, Nurms, Subdiv surfaces must be converted to polygons. Unity supports triangulated or Quadrangulated polygon meshes. Meshes make up a large part of your 3D worlds. In this diagram, the same shape mesh The main graphics primitive of Unity. The method you use to construct objects can have a massive effect on the number of polygons, especially when not optimized. Where you can afford them, evenly spaced polygons in buildings, landscape and architecture will help spread lighting and avoid awkward kinks.Other high density NURBS patch models designed for render.Many character models need to be intelligently optimized or even rebuilt by an artist, especially if sourced or built from: Optimise your geometry if it has too many polygons.Sensibly named objects help you find things quickly Mesh This can often save time when running updates and importing unnecessary data. With big projects in your 3D application, consider having a working file outside your Unity project directory.Keep your hierarchies as simple as you can.Use simple but descriptive names for both objects and files in order to allow for duplication later.Avoid special characters such as *()?'#$.This helps you locate and troubleshoot specific Meshes in your project. Name objects in your Scene sensibly and uniquely.

Because of this, it is a good idea to set this consistently across your pipeline (for example, at 30fps).

Animation frame rate defaults can be different in different packages.

In each Scene, you place your environments, obstacles, and decorations, essentially designing and building your game in pieces. Think of each unique Scene file as a unique level.

If in doubt, export a meter cube with your Scene A Scene contains the environments and menus of your game.

For example, if you want to achieve Scale Factor = 1 and Object Transform Scale = 1, use one of the proprietary file formats and set the Convert Units option. Make sure you check the FBX import scale settings. importing native 3D modeling software files.

Unity has different scaling for importing FBX vs.

Be aware that different systems use different units - for example, the system unit default for Max is inches while in Maya it is centimeters.

Set your system and project units to Metric for your software to work consistently with Unity.

Working to scale can be important for both lighting and physics simulation.

This short guide has been put together by games artists with developers at Unity to help you create Assets that work better and more efficiently in your Unity project. Unity supports textured 3D models from a variety of programs or sources.
