Hey everyone I am kinda new to Unity and I was wondering what features Unity has other than the ones on the homepage like for instance what type of coding/scripting would I have to use in order to make a FPS style game??? does the program run off of anything other than the download?? If I have to download anything else what do I need??
You get anything you basically need for a very good start from the free download, including the Game Engine and a coding environment. You need to code in C#, Javascript or Boo. In order to create your graphic assets you would need a 3D or 2D software (or both). It really is a wonderful tool.
really thats cool so all I need to download is the program ok well this sounds even better than the rest of the programs I have looked at so far.
You're good to go with the package that comes with the download. A tip is to try Unity Free firstly to get to know the basics and then tryout the 30 day trial of Pro when you start to notice the lack of functions.
Easiest language to start with is the UnityScript (which is similar to JavaScript). Choice of language doesn't have any effect on functionality or performance as Unity compiles them to the same language on build. So to build an FPS, choose either language available (JS, Boo or C#) and start digging into the documentation.
