Photon Unity Networking (PUN)
|
||
This package includes the Photon Unity Networking Api, the Realtime Api (on which PUN is based) and other optional Photon APIs.
|
||
Also included: A setup wizard, demo scenes, documentation and Editor extensions.
|
||
|
||
|
||
PUN Free versus PUN+
|
||
The content of the PUN Free and PUN+ packages are identical.
|
||
We offer a PUN+ package which includes a one-off Photon Cloud Subscription for 100 CCU. See below how this is applied.
|
||
|
||
|
||
UnityScript / JavaScript
|
||
We do not support UnityScript with PUN v2 and up.

Integration
|
||
This package adds an Editor window "PUN Wizard" for connection setup:
|
||
Menu -> Window -> Photon Unity Networking (shortcut: ALT+P)
|
||
It also adds a commonly used component "PhotonView" to this menu:
|
||
Menu -> Component -> Miscellaneous -> PhotonView (shortcut: ALT+V)
|
||
When imported into a new, empty project, the "PunStartup" script opens the "demo hub" and setup scenes to build.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Clean PUN Import (no demos)
|
||
To get a clean import of PUN, just skip all folders named "Demos".
|
||
The folder "UtilityScripts" can be useful for rapid prototyping but the components are optional.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Server
|
||
Exit Games Photon can be run on your servers or you can subscribe to the Photon Cloud for managed servers.
|
||
|
||
The window "Photon Unity Networking" will help you setup a Photon Cloud account.
|
||
This service is geared towards room-based games and the server cannot be modified.
|
||
Read more about it: https://www.photonengine.com
|
||
|
||
Alternatively, download the Server SDK and run your own Photon Server.
|
||
The SDK has the binaries to run immediately but also includes the source code and projects
|
||
for the game logic. You can use that as basis to modify and extend it.
|
||
A 100 concurrent user license for the server is provided for free.
