Physics 2d Actions aren't appearing
« on: December 09, 2015, 12:11:38 PM »
I've been trying to do a variety of 2d tutorials for PlayMaker... but all of them show options for Physics2d.  I just see Physics in the Actions Browser.  My project is set to 2d... I'm running PlayMaker 1.7.8.3.p2 Student Version on Unity 5.

Is there a simple solution for this?  Thanks in advance!

Edit:  I should add that I've imported the 2d pkg grabbed from here:

https://hutonggames.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W1150

There must be some sort of way to activate it that I've missed.

Hi,

There is not trick you are missing, you just need to know you need this package :)

If you point me to the tutorial you followed, I can maybe make it clearer or contact the respective authors to make a bigger mention of the initial setup required to follow them tutorials.

 Yes, it's not intuitive I give you that. This reminds me I need to put this package on the Ecosystem

Bye,

 Jean

Thanks Jean.

This is the tutorial I've been following:
I have the 2d package already, and have imported it (see screenshot to see it in the project window), but the Physics 2d tab simply doesn't appear in the Actions Browser (also attached).  Do I need to do something else to make it appear?

Thanks!

Edit: I've added the 2d prefab to the scene / added the proxy to the object I'm trying to use physics 2d on... still no luck :/

Testing good for me on Unity 5.0, 5.2, 5.3.

Try making a test project, importing playmaker and playmaker 2d package.

I must be blanking on something... I've attached grabs of my inspector, showing the proxy on the GameObject, and the Hierarchy with the Unity 2D item in there. 

My actions pane is still appearing as above.  I'm running Unity 5.3

Thanks- hopefully it's something simple!

To make sure, if your using Unity 5.3, you need to make sure your using the Playmaker 1.8 beta.  Its available in the unity asset store, once imported go to the playmaker folder, editor folder, Install, and 1.8.0

Then installed the Unity2D package from  https://hutonggames.fogbugz.com/default.asp?W1150
Make sure that everything has checkmarks, during the import.

I just did that in a test project, and it shows correctly for me.  Using 5.3 Mac

Ah maybe it's a function of me using the Student license.  I see the 1.8.0 pkg in the asset store, but it's asking me to purchase the license.

When I try to access my original DL link, it just redownloads the package I already have (1.7.8.3).

Appreciate the responses on this... I'm sure I'll get it working one of these days.
