Unity 5 beta now available for pre-orders!

awesome .... feeling tempted

I'm looking forward to checking it out when I get home from work today :)

Does anyone know if there is Oculus integration in the beta?

Cool, thanks for the info.

it actually says when you follow that link Download the Unity 5.0 pre-order beta for Unity pre-orders and Unity Pro Subscribers. Have any Unity subscribers on here figured out exactly how to get the Unity 5 beta because it's a mystery to me.

I just clicked on the download button on the link. The license key that they originally gave to me works to activate the beta.

fyi The link doesn't show up in Linux for whatever reason.

I got it, I think I'm going to backup my project and give this a try.

The Oculus 0.4.3 SDK does not support Unity 5.0 yet. Sorry guys.

Any info on eta? Is it a high priority and are there any technical details that might postpone a release of a unity 5 integration?

But vrdaveb wrote this in a 0.4.3 thread:

Do you know of any issues getting direct to rift working in Unity 4.6 or 5 betas?

Nope, both work on my machine. To make it build you will need to change

#if (UNITY_5 || UNITY_4_6 || (UNITY_4_5 && !(UNITY_4_5_0 || UNITY_4_5_1 || UNITY_4_5_2 || UNITY_4_5_3 || UNITY_4_5_4)))

to

#if (UNITY_4_5_5)

Unity 5 beta 9 keeps crashing while trying to convert my project anyway :( oh well.

if you talk about the beta you might also want to make clear if you talk about the now outdated open beta or the current closed beta.
