Topic: Unity releases source code

[Keith Brown]

While mainly a gaming engine, Unity can be used for CAD programming and multi platform apps.  Like Autocad they always allowed you to decompile their source code, but now they have officially released it for reference only.  i.e.  You cannot rebuild it or submit changes at this time.

Sorry VB peeps, it C# only!


Any other swampers programming in Unity?  Would love to connect and swap ideas, etc.

like autocad decompile source code?
I badly need to see how the civil bacth converter of civil3d works so i can help fix it, is that possible with not too many steps?
I mean the non-.net files, I know the .net ones are exposed.

I can't be 100% sure, as I don't have access to the AutoCAD source code, but I'm 99.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999ish% sure it isn't based on Unity.

I'm 100_ % sure its not unity related.
I've just never heard someone say autodesk allows you to decompile their source.
Given that adesk is too disorganized to listen to those trying to help them, wish I could do it myself if ethical.

This should have read


"Like Autodesk they allow you to decompile their source code for the .NET framework."


My apologies for any confusion.  I thought it was implied since this is the .NET forum.
