It's like I'm watching a respawn of @keijiro.bsky.social but outside Unity.

I could also see you doing some splatting over the initial phase of photogrammetry where you extract the features. This after seeing the clip in another post with some kind of green torus like shape.

I have to say Iโ€™m also intrigued.

Weird bc this looks imprecise enough to be photogrammetry, but from what I remember from faro hand scanners leveraging both lidar and camera, they still had quite good geometry that it was obviously not photogrammetry. Unless itโ€™s done by phone with a fast process that allows for such artifacts.

For what itโ€™s worth the article has an apk analyzer you can use to look into the libraries that flag this warning. Thatโ€™s worth a looksie.

Although I didnโ€™t read it fully, I didnโ€™t notice any older devices compatibility thing. But then again I donโ€™t know the process well. It itโ€™s only warning apks targeting newer API lvls and assumes newer device, then it might make sense.

Library caches a lot of things for Unity to function. From compiled versions of your code to shaders, to other stuff for the editor. Or just the metadata for assets and being able to keep dependencies. Recently archived old projects and saved at least 150GB by deleting git(LFS) and Library.

19.10.2025 13:02 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

The only reason I can think that deleting Library might help is the packages that were mentioned in your forum discussion might have been updated to reflect the firebase update it took the poster to fix the warnings.

Yeah I Library has always been like that. Interestingly I heard someone from the Tin Hearts team say that on Wookash just the other day, how they have 60-70 (iirc) GB Library locally and it takes an absurd amount of time to get a new clone going.

Support 16ย KB page sizes ย |ย  Compatibility ย |ย  Android Developers

This explains a bit. Also says itโ€™s effective as of Nov 2025, which is why it didnโ€™t wasnโ€™t an issue before.

This has nothing to do either with executable space. Your link and the next three responses the post got, basically say itโ€™s a firebase+google issue. Looking into it further Google in order to support newer devices that target 16KB page sizes(memory related) require it of you.

19.10.2025 12:52 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

What 16kb constraint is this? Never published to Google Play. Also why is Library an issue? Do u also have to submit the code now? Library can be whatever it wants, the point is how big the final executable is and whether the data are with it or downloadable right? Or at least that's what I thought.

People have been waiting for a Japan installment for ages and they put black guy protag & for what? Wrong time to try for diversity. Now you have a setting where a black guy makes absolute sense. Assassins were disenfranchised ppl going for change. The era is perfect. And they nix it.*facepalm*

On the other hand, the instrumentation part in the Performance Profiler seems to allow you to selectively ask for perf data. Tells you hot paths, top functions with most self % and it does also have a tab for the User Marks. There's some more info to be seen if you click on Open Details

07.10.2025 17:08 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

To be honest, I'm not sure how to view the markers on the diagsession Timeline above. The tutorial and the VS version I have are different. But there is a tab called User Marks which gives the info you want.

Instrument your .NET application - Visual Studio (Windows) Explore how to use the dynamic Instrumentation tool for your .NET applications (C#, C++, Visual Basic, F#) in Visual Studio and analyze the report.

It works, you install the package (no need to copy files from VS installation folder), add the conditional comp. symbol and add user marks in your code. But...it's not seen in the Debug's Diagnostics Tools window, but you need to run the separate Performance Profiler to see them.

I see you're also going further up the resolution ladder. Good luck! Looking forward to it!

Sure my point is ppl come across stuff before docs when they donโ€™t suspect the possibility of foul play. They will check docs to verify.

Kinda how some people come across Get/SetPixel being expensive and propagate it by word of mouth(virtual or otherwise) even if they havenโ€™t used it and other such cases.

One thing about Unity(canโ€™t speak for other engines although it being common wouldnโ€™t surprise me) is that this is pne of those things you learn either investigating the issue or randomly reading a tweet/forum reply etc and it becomes โ€œengine loreโ€.

I read docs generally, but I probably wouldn't read the docs for a property from the get go, because I wouldn't expect anything shady, although the horror stories aren't uncommon. I would definitely read the docs for a function though.
