Native Unity Plugin for exporting VulkanSceneGraph files from Unity3D.

The vsgUnity project consists of two Libraries

A C++ library exposing functionality to build, save and preview VSG graphs.

A Unity3D plugin that utilises unity2vsg to export a Unity GameObject or Scene.

To aid development a complete Unity project is included in this repository and contains the vsgUnity scripts as well as some useful test scenes. To open it select the root UnityProject folder when opening a project in Unity.

The UnityProject/Assets/vsgUnity folder holds the main plugin scripts and can be copied into other Unity3D projects. When building from source the unity2vsg binary must be copied into UnityProject/Assets/vsgUnity/Native/Plugins/(PlatformName) where (PlatformName) is the name of the OS platform you are using, unity2vsg contains a post build step that should do this for you.

Also note that you'll need to close Unity any time you want to copy a new unity2vsg binary as it'll be locked and the Unity only reloads the library on startup.

• C++17 compliant compiler i.e. g++ 7.3 or later, Clang 6.0 or later, Visual Studio S2017 or later.
• Vulkan 1.1 or later.
• glslang
• CMake 3.7 or later.

Ensure Vulkan is installed and the VULKAN_SDK environment variable has been set and that glsllang has been built and installed and that it's install path has been added to your CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. The VulkanSceneGraph project has more details on these subjects.

Command line instructions for default build of shared library (.dll) in source:

git clone https://github.com/tomhog/vsgUnity
cd vsgUnity/unity2vsg
cmake . -G "Visual Studio 15 2017 Win64"

A post build step will copy unity2vsg.dll into UnityProject/Assets/vsgUnity/Native/Plugins/Windows. Ensure Unity is closed or the .dll file will not copy.

Command line instructions for default build of shared library (.so) in source:

git clone https://github.com/tomhog/vsgUnity
cd vsgUnity/unity2vsg
cmake .
make -j 8

A post build step will copy libunity2vsg.so into UnityProject/Assets/vsgUnity/Native/Plugins/Linux. Ensure Unity is closed or the .so file will not copy.
