![]() ![]() Nothing too crazy going on here: we’re using TextMeshPro (TMP) for our text UI rendering. Our demo starts with some UI that represents some messages we might typically display in a game. We’ll build a small demo, primarily focused on UI and text, and proceed to install, set up, and utilize the package to localize this demo. In this article, we’ll go through how to use the official Unity package to localize our games. It’s in preview as we write this, but it’s not far from being released according to the Unity team, so we think it’s one to consider. Another option: the good people at Unity Technologies have been hard at work on a first-party localization package. You could roll your own solution, use an open-source library, or maybe pay for a package from the Unity Asset Store. So how do you go about internationalizing and localizing a Unity game? If you’re making commercial games with Unity, and have been kind enough to land on our little article here, you’re probably looking at expanding your game’s global reach through internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n). □ Note » Have you heard of the no-strings-attached alternative to Unity, Godot? Here's how to go about game localization in Godot. Even some AAA goliaths like Blizzard’s Hearthstone are made with the engine. Breakout indies like Cuphead, Overcooked, Hollow Knight, Ori and the Blind Forest, and Monument Valley all have Unity at the heart of their technology. If you are not a Unity desktop user, you are not able to use this.Unity is arguably one of the most popular off-the-shelf engines for independent game developers. Another thing is that the Smart Scopes is only available for the Unity desktop. It doesn’t support Google search though (and it will be perfect if it does). The Unity Smart Scopes is very useful for finding stuff on your desktop and on the Web. The Preview feature is an existing feature of Dash, and it is applicable to Smart Scopes too. You can also preview the result by right clicking it. You can change the Categories and Sources to get it to refine its search. Sources refer to the source where the results are retrieved from, such as Amazon, Firefox bookmarks, Deviant Arts, etc. ![]() Categories refer to the type of files it will return, such as Application, Music, Code, Graphics, etc. There are two sections you can configure: Categories and Sources. If you are not seeing the things you want, you can click the “Filter Results” link at the top right corner of the Dash. When you do a search, the Smart Scope will make a guess of the things you are searching and return the results. The best thing about the Smart Scope is that you can filter the results to get you want to find. The result should show up almost immediately as you type. After that, you can press the “Super” (or the “Windows”) key to open the Dash and start typing the term that you want to search. This might cause your system to stand still for a while (it did to mine, but your condition might vary). Once installed, it will restart the current Unity session. It shouldn’t remove anything from your system. It should only prompt you to install new packages and upgrade your existing packages. Note: If you run the last command “ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade” and it prompts you to remove some packages, DO NOT PROCEED.
