  • Fixed Psuedo locale editor using the incorrect field for the locale name.
  • Fixed Unity freezing when calling WaitForCompletion on a string operation that threw an exception during formatting. (LOC-630)
  • Improved automatic releasing of operations so that we no longer use CompletedTypeless, which generates GC.

  • Added Custom Locale UI Window. This can be used to add any custom Locales that are not supported in CultureInfo class or the SystemLanguage.
  • Added Preloading Screen sample. This shows how you can wait for the InitializationOperation to complete.

Changed

  • Reduced the amount of garbage being generated by requests for localized strings and assets. The operations inside of AsyncOperationHandle are now returned in the subsequent frame after completion. If you wish to hold onto an AsyncOperationHandle you should call Addressables.ResourceManager.Acquire to prevent the operation being reused and Addressables.Release to allow for it to be reused.
  • Merged all Third Party dependencies into a single library Unity.Localization.ThirdParty.Editor.dll. This will prevent conflicts when projects/packages use the same libraries. Google Sheets, Newtonsoft Json and CsvHelper can still be accessed by adding Unity.Localization.ThirdParty.Editor as an Assembly Reference to your own asmdef files.
  • Removed dependency on package com.unity.nuget.newtonsoft-json. It is now part of the combined dependencies.
  • Updated Third Party dependencies. Google Sheets to v.1.49.0.2111, CsvHelper to 15.0.9 and Newtonsoft.Json to 12.0.3.

    • Removed SmartObjects
  • Updated to Addressables 1.6.13.
  • It's now possible to import StringTableCollections and AssetTableCollections into new or existing projects. When importing the Collection will create/update the Addressables and create any missing Locales in the project.

  • The Localization Tables window search field is no longer cleared when changing selected table.
  • After pulling from a Google Sheet, the order of the keys in the table will now match the order of the Google Sheet.
  • When pushing to a Google Sheet, Table entries will no longer be sorted by the Key Id but keep their current order, as shown in the table editor window.
  • It is now possible to use a Google Sheet with Sheet Id 0.
  • Creating a new LocalizationSettings asset in the Project Settings window no longer selects the asset.
  • Setting LocalizedString Arguments will now trigger RefreshString.
  • LocalizedString.RefreshString will no longer throw an exception if there are no StringChanged subscribers.

  • Fixed exception when calling GetLocale and no Addressables settings exists in the project.
  • Fixed XLIFF 2.0 generating empty notes nodes. (LOC-131)
  • Fixed Google Sheets PullEnd not being called after pulling from a Google Sheet. (LOC-133)
  • Google Sheets PullCellData is now called for all cells even if the sheet cell is empty. (LOC-134)
  • Pulling a Google Sheet using an API Key will now use the correct public API and no longer produce authorization errors. (LOC-139)

[0.7.1] - 2020-06-05

Added
