It is now time for us to create the project for our game that will be used for the rest of the text. While we have walked through this at a high-level before, there are particular details that we want to include with this new project that require review.
- Create a new Unity Project.
Our project will use some of the unitypackages that come with Unity to provide some of the core functions without us having to write a large amount of code.
- Enter a directory name for the project.
- Select the Character Controller, Skyboxes, Standard Assets (Mobile), and Terrain Assets packages in the Project Wizard:
- Character Controller will allow us to move our character around the level without having to deal with a lot of scripting.
- Skyboxes are useful for being able to draw the sky for our world. We will be able to put up a simple texture to represent the sky or ceiling for our dungeons.
- Standard Assets (Mobile) will contain a lot of interface and optimized prefabs specifically for the iPhone.
- Terrain Assets will give us the basics for being able to paint on our terrain without having to go off and search for other assets.
- As we've done previously, we need to create a new App ID and provisioning profile on the Apple Developer Center's provisioning portal.
- Download and import the provisioning profile into XCode.
- In the Player Settings change the Product Name to Battlecry. This is the name that the application will display when it is installed on the device.
- Set our Bundle Identifier to that which we have from the provisioning portal. Here I have inserted
com.sojournermobile.battlecryto mimic what is stored in the provisioning profile. - As we're targeting both the iPhone and the iPad we must set the Target Device to iPhone + iPad so that we will end up with a universal binary:
- Provide an image for the game so that it will display with a real icon when it starts. In the assets there is an "icon_57_57.png" file. Import that and drag it in to the Default Icon field:
- To ensure that we're linking to the latest SDK, and have access to all of the functions of iOS available to us, select iOS Latest as the SDK version:
- Save the scene in the project. You will need to do this before you can include the scene in the build:
- Open the Build Settings and check our scene:
- Select the Build & Run function from the File menu. If everything is okay you should see your iOS device start and display the Unity logo.
