Unity Issue Tracker — Creating Bug Report in Unity
This chapter tells about a separate case that is not covered in the Video Tutorial.
During Updating My Limited FPS Shooter to Unity 6.1 from Unity 2022.3, I faced 4 Bugs in Unity and AR Foundation. I was forced to use a different Color Space (Linear – default) and made some adjustments in the project to make it work now.
For All Bugs, I created Bug Reports — the crucial action in Development because bugs can be relevant only for your project and exist for years.
At the same time, creating the bug report can require a significant amount of time (several hours).
Bugs are not reasons to pause project development, there is almost always another way to achieve the goal. 1 Bug out of 4 is already fixed by Unity — Thank You!
These bugs are not affecting the project, but they are existing in Unity. In addition to Creating Bug Reports in Unity Issue Tracker, I also composed detailed posts on Unity Discussions to get more attention to the bugs:
- Unity AR Foundation/ARCore/OpenGLES3 Bug: Texture must have width greater than 0; Exception: Failed to create texture because of invalid parameters.
- Enabling Image Stabilization causes Blinking on Android (AR Foundation: ARCore).
- Unity AR Foundation/ARCore/Vulkan Bug: Gamma Color Space affects AR Camera Background (Feed from Device Camera is too Bright).
- Android Build is Closed at the very first launch after installing using Development Mode.
Unity’s Jira & Bug Fixing: How to Add Info to Bug Report
Unity uses Jira for Bug Reporting and Issue Tracking.
There is one amazing thing here: you can have a static chat with a QA Engineer that can request additional info about your issue, and you can attach any file.
Email notifications work, and the whole process has been improved over the years: you will be notified about every update in your report.
