Welcome back, my fellow game developers.
In this video, we are going to be
downloading unity and stalling good and
integrating with it the Visual Studio tools
that we are going to need for the scores.
So let's get started.
First thing you need to go into Google and then go,
go simply type in right here, download Unity.
It's as simple as that.
When you type in, you will get a lot of suggestions.
So make sure that you find the one with the Unity
3D.com and the get unity of course,
and click on the download Unity,
which will open this page right here.
So in here you will need to download
Unity Hub if you have never before used Unity.
Now, what is Unity Hub?
Unity Hub is like a place where we will keep all of
our versions of Unity and
also all of the projects that we make.
Now before Unity Hub,
our project will be all over our computer,
somewhere in different directories and so on.
So the Unity Hub really makes it much
easier to go through your project and really have,
if really good organization.
So make sure that you download
Unity based on which operating system that you have.
So if you have the macOS,
you need to make sure that you download
the Unity 40 macOS.
And if you have a Windows 7,
then you download it for Windows 7.
So simply click on download Unity Hub.
And when you finish downloading,
Q should have this installation folder right here.
When you double-click on it,
it will ask, do you want to? Yes.
So you continue on,
you click on Agree,
you choose the destination where you
want to put your Unity Hub.
And then you start the installation.
Now because I already have Unity Hub installed,
I will not install it again.
So make sure that you install
everything and I'll see you in just a bit.
Oh, okay, welcome back.
So if you've installed Unity Hub correctly,
you should get a message or
a window right here that looks something like that.
Now, we don't have any projects yet,
but this is where our projects will all be
present and we can access them at our leisure.
Now, before you continue on,
Unity will have to make sure that you have an account.
So this is my account right here.
I used my Google Gmail to create an account on Unity.
You can either create a new account or you
can also use your Gmail or Facebook.
I'm not sure if they allow that.
And once you've created an account on Unity,
you can go right here into the installs.
And this is where we download
different versions of Unity.
Now, for this course,
I'll be using the latest version
of Unity that we currently have.
Now, if you want to install a new version of
Unity or any kind of version of Unity,
simply go right here into the ad.
Click on Add.
And in here you can see that we have
different types of unity that we can install.
Now, first of all, we have the recommended releases.
These are the ones that have already been
tested and thoroughly tested and they work perfectly.
But you can also go and look for the official releases.
Now, we are going to be using this version right here.
And this is a very good version.
You can install it.
And you also have the pre-release is now press releases
are do work the same as
the official release and the recommended releases,
but they are sometimes a bit buggy and
you may encounter a couple of
bugs on the official releases.
There also might be able to bugging issue,
but they are not as evident as in the previous releases.
You may not encounter any problem,
but I would recommend that you use
the official release because they are
newer than the recommended releases and
less bulky than the pre releases.
So download the latest version
that you have on your computer.
Or currently maybe you are from
the future and you have a newer version than me.
So download the latest version.
And don't worry, this course
works or the project that we are going to
create will work on any version of Unity and the future.
Now, we are going to click on Next right here.
And this is a very important part of
downloading and installing Unity now.
And here we have modules,
and these modules are like add-ons to our unity
that allow us to create games on different platforms.
So for example, in here you can see that we can now
load modules for different platforms.
So for example, if you want to create a game on Android,
you can use the module for Android.
Or if you want to create a game for
the iOS or icons and so on.
You may also be looking to create games
for Linux or Mac OS or what.
So, based on what you want to create,
you can choose one of these model modules,
or you can just wait later on,
you can download these at any point.
You also have the documentations
which I recommend you download.
These documentations are the Unity documentation
and they are very important.
Maybe sometimes you want to look up certain things.
And finally you have the language pack.
And maybe if you're Chinese or Korean,
I'm not sure what these are,
honestly, I have no idea.
Maybe you can use one of these language packs.
But the most important thing,
and you need to make sure that you have
the Microsoft Visual Studio Community
2019 or newer installed with your unity.
Because we are going to be using
Visual Studio to code everything,
everything, and all the behaviors of
the objects that we create immunity.
Now, this is all you need to do.
Simply click on Next and you will begin
the installation of your Unity.
So with that said,
it's time for your first challenge.
And your challenge is going to be to
download Unity and Visual Studio.
So download Unity Hub,
just like I showed you,
make sure that if you have a Mac,
you download the Mac version.
If you have a Windows,
you download the Windows version.
Then you need to download the latest release.
And finally, make sure that you also
download Visual Studio with Unity.
So pause the video right now and go ahead
and download unity with Visual Studio.
And in the next video we'll simply
go over the interface of unity and
Visual Studio you just saw we
can get over our initial fears.
So I'll see you in the next one.
