WebGL Player settings
This page details the Player settings specific to the WebGLA JavaScript API that renders 2D and 3D graphics in a web browser. The Unity WebGL build option allows Unity to publish content as JavaScript programs which use HTML5 technologies and the WebGL rendering API to run Unity content in a web browser. More info
See in Glossary platform. For a description of the general Player settings, see Player settings.
You can find documentation for the properties in the following sections:
Note: Although the Icon panel appears on the WebGL Player settings, there are no icon settings because WebGL games don’t use icons.
For more information about WebGL Publishing Settings, see WebGL Building and Running.
Resolution and Presentation
This section allows you to customize the screen mode and default size.
Resolution
| Setting | Function |
|---|---|
| Default Canvas Width | Set the width of the WebGL canvas element. |
| Default Canvas Height | Set the height of the WebGL canvas element. |
| Run In Background | Enable this option to allow your content to continue to run when the canvas or the browser window loses focus. |
WebGL Template
Select a template to use for your WebGL Project:
- The Default page is a simple white page with a loading bar on a grey canvas.
- The Minimal page has only the necessary boilerplate code to run the WebGL content.
- The PWA page has a Progressive Web AppA software application that’s delivered through the web. It uses certain browser features to create a user experience on par with a native application. More info
See in Glossary including a web manifest file and service worker code.
You can specify your own template so that you can run your game in a similar environment to the finished game. Follow the instructions in Using WebGL Templates.
Splash Image
Use the Virtual Reality Splash Image setting to select a custom splash image for XR displays. For information on common Splash Screen settings, see Splash Screen.
Other Settings
This section allows you to customize a range of options organized into the following groups:
Rendering
Use these settings to customize how Unity renders your game for the WebGL platform.
| Setting | Function | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Color Space | Choose what color space to use for rendering: Gamma or Linear. See Linear rendering overview for an explanation of the difference between the two. |
||
| Auto Graphics API | Disable this option to manually pick and reorder the graphics APIs. By default this option is enabled, and Unity includes WebGL2.0, with WebGL1.0 as a fallback for devices where WebGL2.0 isn’t supported. | ||
| Static BatchingA technique Unity uses to draw GameObjects on the screen that combines static (non-moving) GameObjects into big Meshes, and renders them in a faster way. More info See in Glossary |
Enable this option to use Static batching. | ||
| Dynamic BatchingAn automatic Unity process which attempts to render multiple meshes as if they were a single mesh for optimized graphics performance. The technique transforms all of the GameObject vertices on the CPU and groups many similar vertices together. More info See in Glossary |
Check this box to use Dynamic Batching on your build (enabled by default). | ||
| Graphics Jobs | Enable this option to instruct Unity to offload graphics tasks (render loops) to worker threads running on other CPU cores. Use it to reduce the time spent in Camera.Render on the main thread, which is often a bottleneck. Note: This feature is experimental. It may not deliver a performance improvement for your project, and may introduce new crashes. |
||
| Texture compression__ format__ | Choose DXT, ETC2, or ASTC to set the texture compression3D Graphics hardware requires Textures to be compressed in specialized formats which are optimized for fast Texture sampling. More info See in Glossary format for WebGL. For information on how to pick the right format, see Texture compression format overview and to learn how to create builds for desktop and mobile browsers from a script, see Texture Compression in WebGL. |
||
| Lightmap Encoding | Choose Low Quality, Normal Quality, or High Quality to set the lightmapA pre-rendered texture that contains the effects of light sources on static objects in the scene. Lightmaps are overlaid on top of scene geometry to create the effect of lighting. More info See in Glossary encoding. This setting affects the encoding scheme and compression format of the lightmaps. |
||
| HDRhigh dynamic range See in Glossary CubemapA collection of six square textures that can represent the reflections in an environment or the skybox drawn behind your geometry. The six squares form the faces of an imaginary cube that surrounds an object; each face represents the view along the directions of the world axes (up, down, left, right, forward and back). More info See in Glossary Encoding |
Choose Low Quality, Normal Quality, or High Quality to set the HDR Cubemap encoding. This setting affects the encoding scheme and compression format of the HDR Cubemaps. | ||
| Lightmap Streaming Enabled | Whether to use Mipmap Streaming for lightmaps. Unity applies this setting to all lightmaps when it generates them. Note: To use this setting, you must enable the Texture Streaming Quality setting. |
||
| Streaming Priority | Set the priority for all lightmaps in the Mipmap Streaming system. Unity applies this setting to all lightmaps when it generates them. Positive numbers give higher priority. Valid values range from —128 to 127. |
||
| Frame Timing Stats | Enable this option to gather CPU/GPU frame timing statistics. | ||
| Virtual Texturing | Indicates whether to enable Virtual Texturing. Note: The Unity Editor requires a restart for this setting to take effect. |
||
| Shader precision model | Controls the default precision of samplers used in shadersA program that runs on the GPU. More info See in Glossary. See Shader data types and precision for more details. |
||
| 360 Stereo Capture | Indicates whether Unity can capture stereoscopic 360 images and videos. When enabled, Unity compiles additional shader variants to support 360 capture (currently only on Windows/OSX). When enabled, enable_360_capture keyword is added during the Stereo RenderCubemap call. Note that this keyword is not triggered outside the Stereo RenderCubemap function. For more information, see Stereo 360 Image and Video Capture. |
||
| Load/Store Action Debug Mode | Highlights undefined pixelsThe smallest unit in a computer image. Pixel size depends on your screen resolution. Pixel lighting is calculated at every screen pixel. More info See in Glossary that might cause rendering problems in your built application. The highlighting appears only in the Game view, and your built application if you select Development BuildA development build includes debug symbols and enables the Profiler. More info See in Glossary in Build Settings. See LoadStoreActionDebugModeSettings. |
||
| Editor Only | Highlights undefined pixels in the Game view, but not in your built application. | ||
Configuration
| Property | Description | |
|---|---|---|
|
Scripting BackendA framework that powers scripting in Unity. Unity supports three different scripting backends depending on target platform: Mono, .NET and IL2CPP. Universal Windows Platform, however, supports only two: .NET and IL2CPP. More info See in Glossary |
Choose the scripting backend you want to use. The scripting backend determines how Unity compiles and executes C# code in your Project. | |
| Mono | Compiles C# code into .NET Common Intermediate Language (CIL) and executes that CIL using a Common Language Runtime. For more information, refer to the MonoA scripting backend used in Unity. More info See in Glossary page. |
|
| IL2CPP | Compiles C# code into CIL, converts the CIL to C++ and then compiles that C++ into native machine code, which executes directly at runtime. Refer to IL2CPPA Unity-developed scripting back-end which you can use as an alternative to Mono when building projects for some platforms. More info See in Glossary for more information. |
|
| API Compatibility Level | Choose which .NET APIs you can use in your project. This setting can affect compatibility with third-party libraries. However, it has no effect on Editor-specific code (code in an Editor directory, or within an Editor-specific Assembly Definition). Tip: If you are having problems with a third-party assembly, you can try the suggestion in the API Compatibility Level section below. |
|
| .Net Standard 2.1 | Compatible with .NET Standard 2.1. Produces smaller builds and has full cross-platform support. | |
| .Net Framework | Compatible with the .NET Framework 4 (which includes everything in the .NET Standard 2.0 profile plus additional APIs). Choose this option when using libraries that access APIs not included in .NET Standard 2.0. Produces larger builds and any additional APIs available aren’t necessarily supported on all platforms. Refer to Referencing additional class library assemblies for more information. | |
| IL2CPP Code Generation | Defines how Unity manages IL2CPP code generation. This option is only available if you use the IL2CPP scripting backend. | |
| Faster runtime | Generates code optimized for runtime performance. This setting is activated by default. | |
| Faster (smaller) builds | Generates code optimized for build size and iteration. This setting generates less code and produces a smaller build, but can reduce runtime performance for generic code. Use this option when faster build times are important, such as when iterating on changes. | |
| C++ Compiler Configuration | Choose the C++ compiler configuration used when compiling IL2CPP generated code. Note: This property is disabled unless Scripting Backend is set to IL2CPP. |
|
| Use incremental GC | Uses the incremental garbage collector, which spreads garbage collection over several frames to reduce garbage collection-related spikes in frame duration. For more information, refer to Automatic Memory Management. | |
| Allow downloads over HTTP | Indicates whether to allow downloading content over HTTP. The options are Not allowed, Allowed in Development builds only, and Always allowed. The default option is Not allowed due to the recommended protocol being HTTPS, which is more secure. | |
| Active Input Handling | Choose how to handle input from users. | |
| Input Manager (old) | Use the default Input window. | |
| Input System Package (New) | Use the newer Input system. To try the new Input System, install the InputSystem package. | |
| Both | Use both systems side by side. | |
Shader Variant Loading
Use these settings to control how much memory shaders use at runtime.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Default chunk size (MB) | Sets the maximum size of compressed shader variant data chunks Unity stores in your built application for all platforms. The default is 16. Refer to Shader loading for more information. |
| Default chunk count | Sets the default limit on how many decompressed chunks Unity keeps in memory on all platforms. The default is 0, which means there’s no limit. |
| Override | Enables overriding Default chunk size and Default chunk count for this build target. |
| Chunk size (MB) | Overrides the value of Default chunk size (MB) on this build target. |
| Chunk count | Overrides the value of Default chunk count on this build target. |
API Compatibility Level
You can choose your mono API compatibility level for all targets. Sometimes a 3rd-party .NET library uses functionality that’s outside of your .NET compatibility level. To understand what’s going on in such cases, and how to best fix it, try following these suggestions:
- Install ILSpy for Windows.
- Drag the .NET assemblies for the API compatilibity level that you are having issues with into ILSpy. You can find the problematic files under
Frameworks/Mono/lib/mono/YOURSUBSET/. - Drag in your 3rd-party assembly.
- Right-click your 3rd-party assembly and select Analyze.
- In the analysis report, inspect the Depends on section. The report highlights anything that the 3rd-party assembly depends on, but that’s not available in the .NET compatibility level of your choice in red.
Script Compilation
| Setting | Function | |
|---|---|---|
| Scripting Define Symbols | Set custom compilation flags. For more details, see the documentation on Platform dependent compilation. | |
| Additional Compiler Arguments | Add entries to this list to pass additional arguments to the Roslyn compiler. Use one new entry for each additional argument. To create a new entry, press the ‘+’ button. To remove an entry, press the ‘-’ button. When you have added all desired arguments, click the Apply button to include your additional arguments in future compilations. The Revert button resets this list to the most recent applied state. |
|
| Suppress Common Warnings | Disable this setting to display the C# warnings CS0169 and CS0649. | |
| Allow ‘unsafe’ Code | Enable support for compiling ‘unsafe’ C# code in a pre-defined assembly (for example, Assembly-CSharp.dll). For Assembly Definition Files ( .asmdef), click on one of your .asmdef files and enable the option in the Inspector window that appears. |
|
| Use Deterministic Compilation | Disable this setting to prevent compilation with the -deterministic C# flag. With this setting enabled, compiled assemblies are byte-for-byte identical each time they’re compiled. For more information, see Microsoft’s deterministic compiler option documentation. |
|
| Enable Roslyn Analyzers | Disable this setting to compile user-written scriptsA piece of code that allows you to create your own Components, trigger game events, modify Component properties over time and respond to user input in any way you like. More info See in Glossary without Roslyn analyzer DLLs that might be present in your project. |
|
Optimization
| Property | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Prebake Collision Meshes | Adds collision data to Meshes at build time. | |
| Keep Loaded Shaders Alive | Indicates whether to prevent shaders from being unloaded. For more information, see Shader Loading. |
|
| Preloaded Assets | Sets an array of Assets for the player to load on startup. To add new Assets, increase the value of the Size property and then set a reference to the Asset to load in the new Element box that appears. |
|
| AOT compilation options | Additional options for Ahead of Time (AOT) compilation. This helps optimize the size of the built iOS player. | |
| Strip Engine Code | Enable this option if you want the Unity Linker tool to remove code for Unity Engine features that your Project doesn’t use. This setting is only available with the IL2CPP scripting backend. Most apps don’t use every available DLL. This option strips out DLLs that your app doesn’t use to reduce the size of the built Player. If your app is using one or more classes that would normally be stripped out under your current settings, Unity displays a debug message when you try to build the app. |
|
| Managed Stripping Level | Chooses how aggressively Unity strips unused managed (C#) code. The options are Minimal, Low, Medium, and High. When Unity builds your app, the Unity Linker process can strip unused code from the managed DLLs your Project uses. Stripping code can make the resulting executable significantly smaller, but can sometimes accidentally remove code that’s in use. For more information about these options and bytecode stripping with IL2CPP, refer to ManagedStrippingLevel. |
|
| Vertex Compression | Sets vertex compression per channel. This affects all the meshes in your project. Typically, Vertex Compression is used to reduce the size of mesh data in memory, reduce file size, and improve GPU performance. For more information on how to configure vertex compression and limitations of this setting, refe to Compressing mesh data. |
|
| Optimize Mesh Data | Enable this option to strip unused vertex attributes from the mesh used in a build. This option reduces the amount of data in the mesh, which can help reduce build size, loading times, and runtime memory usage. Warning: If you have this setting enabled, you should remember to not change material or shader settings at runtime. Refer to PlayerSettings.stripUnusedMeshComponents for more information. |
|
| Texture MipMap Stripping | Enables mipmap stripping for all platforms. This strips unused mipmaps from Textures at build time. Unity determines unused mipmaps by comparing the value of the mipmap against the Quality Settings for the current platform. If a mipmap value is excluded from every Quality Setting for the current platform, then Unity strips those mipmaps from the build at build time. If QualitySettings.masterTextureLimit is set to a mipmap value that has been stripped, Unity will set the value to the closest mipmap value that has not been stripped. | |
Stack Trace
Select the logging settings for the WebGL platform.
- Select your preferred stack trace method by enabling the option that corresponds to each Log Type (Error, Assert, Warning, Log, and Exception) based on the type of logging you require. For example:
-
ScriptOnly: Logs only when running scripts.
-
Full: Logs all the time.
-
None: No logs are ever recorded.
-
ScriptOnly: Logs only when running scripts.
See stack trace logging for more information.
Legacy
Enable the Clamp BlendShapes (Deprecated) option to clamp the range of blend shape weights in Skinned Mesh Renderers.
Publishing settings
Use the Publishing Settings to configure how Unity builds your WebGL app. For example, you can choose to enable the browser cache to store its files in your build.
| Setting | Function | |
|---|---|---|
| Enable Exceptions | Choose how to handle unexpected code behavior (generally considered errors) at run time. The options are: None, Explicitly Thrown Exceptions Only, Full Without Stacktrace, and Full With Stacktrace. See the Building and running a WebGL project page for details. | |
| Compression Format | Choose the compression format to use for release build files. The options are: Gzip, Brotli, or Disabled (none). Note that this option doesn’t affect development builds. | |
| Name Files As Hashes | Enable this option to use an MD5 hash of the uncompressed file contents as a filename for each file in the build. | |
| Data caching | Enable this option to automatically cache your contents Asset data on the user’s machine so it doesn’t have to be re-downloaded on subsequent runs (unless the contents have changed). Caching is implemented using the IndexedDB API provided by the browser. Some browsers may implement restrictions around this, such as asking the user for permission to cache data over a specific size. |
|
| Debug Symbols | Enable this option to preserve debug symbols and perform demangling (displaying the original function names) of the stack trace when an error occurs. For release builds, all the debug information is stored in a separate file which is downloaded from the server on demand when an error occurs. Development builds always have demangling support embedded in the main module and therefore aren’t affected by this option. | |
| Show Diagnostics Overlay | Enable this option to display an overlay in WebGL builds that displays diagnostics information. It’s available for both Development and Release builds. For more information, see Show Diagnostics Overlay Player settings. | |
| Decompression Fallback | Include decompression fallback code for build files in the loader. Use this option if you are unable to configure server response headers according to the selected compression method. | |
| Initial Memory Size | The initial size of the WASM heap memory in megabytes (MB). By default, this is set to 32 MB. If Memory Growth Mode is set to None, then this is also the maximum size of WASM heap memory. | |
| Memory Growth Mode | Choose the growth mode for the WASM heap memory from the following options. The recommended option is Geometric. | |
| None | The WASM heap memory has a fixed size configured in Initial Memory Size. | |
| Linear | The WASM heap memory increases by a fixed amount configured by Linear Memory Growth Step. | |
| Geometric | The WASM heap memory increases relative to the current heap size depending on the factor configured in Geometric Memory Growth Step and Geometric Memory Growth Cap. | |
| Maximum Memory Size | The maximum size of the WASM heap memory in MB. By default, this is set to 2048 MB. This option is only available for the Memory Growth Mode Linear or Geometric. | |
| Linear Memory Growth Step | Advanced tuning option to control the WASM heap growth step in MB. By default, this is set to 16 MB. A growth step of 16MB indicates that the heap is increased by 16MB each time it needs to grow. Only available if Memory Growth Mode is set to Linear. | |
| Geometric Memory Growth Step | Advanced tuning option to control the WASM heap growth factor relative to the current heap size. By default, this is set to 0.2. A growth factor of 0.2 means that the size of the heap is increased by 0.2 * currentHeapSize each time the heap needs to grow. Only available if Memory Growth Mode is set to Geometric. | |
| Geometric Memory Growth Cap | Advanced tuning option to control the upper limit for a heap growth step in MB. By default, this is set to 96 MB. A growth cap of 96MB means that the size of the heap is increased by at most 96 MB. Only available if Memory Growth Mode is set to Geometric. | |
Show Diagnostic Overlay setting
To help optimize WebGL builds and diagnose potential problems, you can view diagnostics information (currently limited to memory usage) by enabling this setting. Once enabled, an icon appears on the build that displays an overlay with useful data about the build. It’s available for both Development and Release builds.
-
To view the diagnostics information, enable the Show Diagnostics Overlay option in the Player settings window (File > Build Settings > Player Settings > Publishing Settings).
On desktop, the Diagnostics icon appears on the footer of the WebGL canvas:
Diagnostics button on the footer of the canvas On a mobile device, the Diagnostics icon appears on the bottom-right of the screen:
An Android phone displaying the diagnostics button Click the Diagnostics
icon. An overlay appears showing the JavaScript memory, which is further broken down to display WASM heap memory usage:
The following diagnostics appear on the overlay screen:
| Property: | Function: |
|---|---|
| Total JS (JavaScript) Memory | The current size of the JS heap, including unused memory not allocated to any JS objects, in megabytes. |
| Used JS Memory | Memory in use by JS objects, in megabytes. |
| Total WASM heap memory | MLinear memory representing the entire heap of the C/C++ Unity engine that’s compiled with Emscripten, including unallocated memory, in megabytes. |
| Used WASM heapy | The space of the WASM heap that’s allocated, in megabytes. |
Important note about JS Memory
The JS Memory information is obtained using the performance.memory API, which is currently only supported on Chrome or Edge. There are no other APIs available that return this information for Safari or Firefox.
Note: This API isn’t supported on iOS devices.
On browsers where this API isn’t supported, a message showing N/A appears.
