Unity 2 6 Introduction
summary
Overview of Unity 2.6: a new profiler with deep profiling shows per-frame rendering, script, GC and physics breakdowns so spikes can be traced to exact functions; default non-readable textures halves memory use; threaded background streaming via LoadLevelAsync and AssetBundle.LoadAsync lets scenes and assets load without hiccups; mesh compression yields 2x–4x smaller models and animation compression gives ~2–6x savings; FMOD replaces OpenAL, SSAO and AA work with image effects, web player is 100 KB smaller and installs per-user, and external VCS uses .meta files.
