Unity

Automatic installation

Unlike other SDK builds, the SDK Unity build supports automatic installation using the SDK Manager. The SDK Manager is a Unity plugin tool that provides Unity app developers with features such as SDK Unity installation, automatic updates, integrity verification, and rollback functionality. If you cannot use the SDK Manager, manually install SDK Unity.

Install SDK Manager

  1. Download and unzip the latest version of the SDK Manager.
  2. Open the Unity Editor and activate the Project window. Then, drag and drop the HIVE-SDK-Manager.unitypackage file from the unzipped folder onto the Project window. Alternatively, open Assets > Import Package > Custom Package, select the HIVE-SDK-Manager.unitypackage file, and choose Import.
  3. When the Import Unity Package window appears, select Import to install the SDK Manager.
  4. If the SDK Manager is installed correctly, you will see the Hive > Hive SDK Manager menu in the Unity Editor.

Install and update SDK Unity

Install the SDK Unity using the SDK Manager. If you have already installed the SDK Unity, you can update it to a higher version.

  1. In the Unity Editor, select Hive > Hive SDK Manager > SDK Upgrade.

  2. When the UpdateListView window appears, select the version of the SDK you want to install or update.

  3. When the upgrade completion popup appears, click OK and check the /Assets/Hive_SDK_v4 folder.
