As it turns out, it's extremely easy to modify the standard self-illumin diffuse shader so it uses the second UV channel when applying the illumination texture. Here's the code for the modified shader...

This might not be the problem in your case, but I once encountered similar behaviour when parenting an object with children to a moving object. In my case, some of the children developed offsets when...

You'll presumably be dealing with an object that has an attached [Collider][1], [Rigidbody][2], and [AudioSource][3]. Off the top of my head, here's how I would try to implement what you've described:...

Perhaps [Application.CaptureScreenshot()][1] would work for you (note that it has a scaling factor argument for producing high-resolution output). I don't think Unity is capable of sending an image...

This is an issue with the alpha channel of the texture, not [UV coordinates][1]. The alpha channel of an image (if the image has one) contains transparency information for each pixel. I suspect that...

One way to accomplish this would be to simply have a boolean variable that gets checked before playing the sound and set when the sound plays. Something like this: bool soundHasPlayed = false; function...

By "return control to Unity" the documentation is referring to the fact that coroutines are non-blocking (when one is called within a piece of code using `StartCoroutine()`, the calling code doesn't...

The centre of a group of points at arbitrary locations in 2D or 3D space is usually referred to as the [centroid][1]. This is computed by averaging the location of the points in each coordinate (x, y,...

Assuming the camera controls are implemented using a script, give the script that controls the GUI a reference to the camera script and set the latter's `enabled` variable (see [this page][1]) to...

It's possible to turn off automatic scaling of textures with dimensions that aren't powers of two. I don't know how Unity handles this under the hood, but I assume it would preserve the actual size of...

One quick note: if your experiment requires precise timing (e.g., accuracy on the order of milliseconds when presenting stimuli or recording reaction time), implementing it in Unity is not a good idea....

In a nutshell, call [DontDestroyOnLoad()][1] on the object containing the AudioSource playing the music. For additional details (including a simple way to avoid multiple copies of the same persistent...

The upper bound of `Random.Range()` is exclusive (i.e., it will never be selected). Thus `Random.Range(0, 1)` will always return 0. See [the documentation][1] for more details. You could instead use...
