Hi, I'm new in the Unity's world and for the Kinect + unity I've followed a easy tutorials, and basically i just installed the Microsoft Kinect for Windows SDK and executed the GAK package of Unity with some examples that decompress some files with proyects and assets.
In my case i've runned the examples and "worked" fine, but at the moment that i play th program Unity raise an exception: The data frame not available, then i sop the game and whe i try to execute again Unit freeze ad doesn't respond anyelse, so I must to re run all the Unity since zero.
Anyone may help me in thisdoubt or give me an idea for research a solution to the problem? Thanks a lot for read.
As you might have seen, there is already a question here. So post you own and only once.

Hi I'm new in the world of Unity but i want to collaborate with the community.
I've executedexaples and proyects with Kinect and Unity only with oficial software. I've followed some tutrials and examples and I jus installedtheMiscrosoft Kinect for windows and the GAK package of Unity that is a compilant of resorces, projects, examples and prefabs realated to Kinect.
Unfortunately i get an error at the moment a play with the sensor, "HRESULT 0x80310001 The data frame not available" although i play fine without troublewth the sesor and usability in the game, then I stop the program and when i want to play the again the IDE Unity freeze tatally and doesn't let me make anything. I must to stop unity completely and re run the Unity application to continue with ths development.
Someone have any idea of what's happened with my Unity + Kinect? it's only occuring with Kinect andthe sensor.
Thanks a lot

i tried to use the wrapper in the first link but i have an error in unity:
DLL not found exception :C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Research KinectSDK\MSRKINECTNUI.DLL
i can't find MSRKINECTNUI.DLL so where can i find it or download it?

Well, I don't know if this thread is still alive or relevent, but yes, I have been working on a Kinect Avatar Puppeteering project and it's going very well. I've been using the wrapper found here: http://wiki.etc.cmu.edu/unity3d/index.php/Microsoft_Kinect_-_Microsoft_SDK
Also, for AA89: Change "C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Research KinectSDKMSRKINECTNUI.DLL" to "C:\Windows\System32\Kinect10.dll"
It should work.
