About Unity´s new built in GUI vs NGUI question to ArenMook

[sloopernine]

Hi ArenMook!

I know you are working 24/7 with the new GUI system to Unity.

What worries me is, when you release that new GUI. NGUI might not be needed anymore? Or do you have some imba cards in your sleeve to still maintain NGUI as one of the top choices of GUI for unity ? Or are they going to be significant different?

Thought I ask, but understand if you are under some type of NDA

cheers!

I've answered this question a couple of times here at Unite. The answer is: yes, they are different, and yes I will maintain NGUI while people are using it. But the goal of the new system is to ultimately succeed NGUI. I will release an "upgrade handbook" if nothing else. I'm not sure if the automated upgrading options are feasible at this early stage, but if I can, I'll do that as well.

Thanks for the honest respons!

I am currently looking at

Unite '13 Keynote Live

on youtube.

They mention about you and that you are going to talk about the new GUI later that day, are there any video about it?
Because I cant find anything about it...

Thanks!

It was recorded, but apparently it may take up to several months for the videos to appear on youtube.
