Sinespace SDK/Editor Pack 14 also includes Unity 2018.1 and 2018.2, and is generally robust.

Unity 2018.3/2018.4 are also available in SDK/Editor Pack 14, but is considered experimental.

2019.1+ in SDK/Editor Pack 14 is very experimental.


Reports on any and all possible bugs in any version is appreciated on https://issues.sine.space/my_view_page.php

Importing Existing Content

We strongly advise importing the Sinespace Editor Pack into a blank project. Existing assets may incorporate incompatibilities in dependent assets, such as Unity's Post Stack V2 (which we bundle the Sinespace compatible version in our package, ditto Cinemachine.) which can cause conflicts. To import existing content, we recommend creating a blank project, and copy the assets into the new project, if you encounter incompatibilities please let us know!
