Title: NGUI vs uGUI
Post by: vidjogamer on April 10, 2014, 06:44:07 AM
Hello, I am trying to decide which gui system is the right fit for my team. I am pretty familiar with NGUI. And I have watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wcODp8Sh8o.
I understand Aren is somewhat of a gui expert. So Aren, or anyone else familiar with both systems, what are the pros and cons of each? Can NGUI do everything that Aren talks about in his Unite talk about uGUI? I'm leaning towards NGUI just for the awesome customer support and community, forums, etc.. but I just wanted to get some opinions from those of you more experienced than I am. Thanks!

That's my Unite 2013 talk.

After I did that talk I ended up creating NGUI 3, which aimed to address everything I wanted it to. NGUI 2 (which is what existed back at Unite 2013) is very inferior to what people are working with right now in the NGUI 3's cycle. Can NGUI do everything I wanted the new system to do? Pretty much. Will uGUI do some things in a more elegant fashion? Certainly. Is it too early to compare the two? Yes. Wait until it's out first. :P

Thank you for the info! I have one more question for you, do you intend on continuing to improve NGUI? Will we see a NGUI 4?

I doubt there will be NGUI 4. I will continue improving NGUI 3 however.
