Unity 3 is out now!

Visit http://unity3d.com/ to download it.

So excited it's finally out...Unity is an amazing engine, and they've improved it by leaps and bounds for Unity 3.

Wow, nice new stuff! Probably one of the most exciting additions is the Umbra Occlusion Booster for enhanced occlusion. I believe Umbra OB typically runs between $9,000 - $50,000 for a license per title! Not bad for what basically amounts to a freebie!

Apparently GG also looked at adding it into T3D 1.2, but decided to roll their own.

Does anyone have a hand list of the new Unity3D features, aside from the occlusion thingee?

The list was buried a couple of links down. Honestly, aside from Umbra, there is not a lot of world-shaking changes from what I--a non-Unity user--can tell.

Torque really needs to get in the game quick. Everything is moving towards the web except Torque. Not a place I would wanna be.
