To get the EOS working, the plugin needs to know some specific things about your EOS project.
- A Unity project to integrate the EOS Unity Plugin into.
- An Epic Games Account, which you may sign up for here.
- Accepted Terms of Service for Epic Online Services.
- An EOS Product config, set up in your Epic Games Developer Portal.
-
Open your Unity project with the integrated EOS Unity Plugin.
-
In the Unity editor, Open
Tools -> EpicOnlineServicesConfigEditor
. -
Configure the EOS Unity Plugin.
-
From the developer portal, copy the configuration values listed below, and paste them into the similarly named fields in the editor tool:
- ProductName
- ProductVersion
- ProductID
- SandboxID
- DeploymentID
- ClientSecret
- ClientID
- EncryptionKey
At this point, you are ready to start developing using the Epic Online Services Plugin for Unity! Simply attach EOSManager.cs (Script)
to a Unity object and it will intialize the plugin with the specified configuration in OnAwake()
.
If you would like to see specific examples of various EOS features in action, import the sample Unity scenes below.
The included samples show fully functional feature implemenation that will both help with EOS integration as well as validate client to dev portal configuration. After installing the samples from the UPM package, you will find scenes for each major feature.
In addition, the samples include Unity friendly feature Managers that can help to quickly integrate new EOS features into your title. They provide functional usage of the main feature functionality and can be a good base template.
To use the samples, install them from the UPM manager.
The samples include both usage of the EOS SDK, and convience wrappers to make using the SDK more ergonomic in the Unity game engine. By being samples in the UPM sense, they are placed under Assets which allows modification.
-
Launch Unity project with the samples installed.
-
In the Unity editor, hit
Play
. -
Login with a selected authentication type.
-
Launch the Developer Authentication Tool
-
Pick a port to use on the computer. 8888 is a good quick to type number that isn't usually used by a process.
-
Log in with one's user credentials that are registered with Epic.
-
Pick a username. This username will be used in the sample to log in.
