Time Ghost: Environment is a Unity 6 sample package containing one of the environments created for the latest Unity Originals demo, Time Ghost. This sample is meant to illustrate the techniques and approaches used for the creation of this environment scene, so that Unity creators can consider whether applying similar ideas can be relevant to their own productions.
The assets and tools in the project can also be used commercially, as the project is provided under the Standard Unity Asset Store EULA.
This HDRP environment sample provides a closer look at how Unity’s Demo team has utilized DOTS (Data-Oriented Technology Stack), ECS (Entity Component System), and additional tooling to carefully manage entity instantiation and resource allocation.
You will also be able to explore solutions including:
- Our foliage control system for configuring settings on environmental effects.
- A GPU-based approach to handle interactions like collisions with vegetation.
- How we used octahedral imposters and our simple tool to generate and integrate imposters directly within Unity.
- APVs and Scenario Blending.
