Release notes

Improvement

  • VR Oculus: Use DXGI 1.1 if possible.

Improvements

  • Animation: Group material color channel curves. Removing one curve will automatically remove other channel curves of the same color property.
  • Editor: Informative message will be shown in the material inspector when the material property block values are used.

Fixes

  • (none) - Android: Audio - Fixed CPU consumption by FMODAudioDevice thread on GearVR.
  • (699455) - Android: On some devices Screen.dpi returns more accurate values.
  • (701438) - Animation: Animating properties of the material with the custom shader does not cause error on the first play in editor.
  • (665246) - Animation: Remove relative material property blocks when the animator component is being removed.
