PROJECT1: ArchViz

Further in this section we are going to work with the project template (a pre-arranged interior ArchViz scene), review the ways of solving common problems, and gradually add new functionality to the project.

The project is packaged and provided as an add-on, so we will need to download the add-on from the UNIGINE Add-On Store and add it to a new empty project. This should be done as follows:

  • Create a new empty C# project. Open the SDK Browser, go to the My Projects tab, and click the Create New button.

  • In the window that opens, be sure to select C# (.NET) from the API + IDE list and click Create New Project.

  • Once the new project is created, it will appear on the My Projects tab. Click Open Editor under the created project to open it in UnigineEditor.

  • Go to store.unigine.com and log in using your username and password.

  • In the search box, type course projects, press Enter, and select the UNIGINE Starter Course Projects in the list of results.

  • Go to the add-on page and click Download.

  • After downloading, open the directory where the add-in file was downloaded.
  • Drag the *.upackage file of your add-on into the data/ folder in the Asset Browser window.
  • In the Package Manager window, select the data/archviz folder, click Import Package and wait for the import process to complete.

Now all the required content is added to the project and we can start working.
