SU & NGUI?

[dharry]

Hi All,

I'm pretty new to all things Unity & SpaceUnity so please bare with the noob

Does anyone have a how-to when it comes to getting SU and NGUI to work together? I just can't seem to get the camera's right

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Cheers
Dean

Same as anything else. Make sure they all use different layers.

Thanks Aren,

I know I just dont understand the hierarchy of where things should be placed but I am trying to learn

SpaceUnity has it's own camera system and my scene has it's own camera as well. So when I add in a NGUI element it adds UI Root and another camera under that. I just can't seem to work out what camera should be where and if I need both my main camera and the NGUI camera as well. I have tried various different camera placements but just can't seem to get it right.

Can you point me to a simple how-to perhaps on the order of things?

Regards,
Dean

This has nothing to do with hierarchy or positions. As I said, check the layers.

Only one camera should be drawing the UI. This means only your UI Camera should be drawing the UI. So check the culling mask for other cameras and make sure they don't draw the UI layer. It's that simple.

Aren,

Thanks You! You were right, I was thinking about it way too much, making sure the layers were right has done the trick.
