🕙 Change Log

Additions 🎉

• Added CesiumWebMapTileServiceRasterOverlay, which enables Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) imagery to be draped on a Cesium3DTileset.
• Added support for the KHR_texture_transform glTF extension - including rotation - for picking with CesiumFeatureIdTexture.

Fixes 🔧

• Normal, metallic-roughness, and occlusion textures from glTF models will now be correctly treated as linear rather than sRGB.
• Fixed a bug where UVs were not properly interpolated in CesiumFeatureIdTexture.GetFeatureIdFromHit, resulting in incorrect values.

In addition to the above, this release updates cesium-native from v0.33.0 to v0.34.0. See the changelog for a complete list of changes in cesium-native.

Cesium for Unity v1.8.0

🕙 Change Log

Breaking Changes 📣

• Feature IDs and metadata are now parsed through the EXT_mesh_features and EXT_structural_metadata extensions respectively. Models with EXT_feature_metadata will still be parsed, but their metadata will no longer be accessible.
• CesiumDefaultTilesetMaterial and CesiumUnlitTilesetMaterial have had their overlay-related parameters renamed. For instance, _overlay0TextureCoordinateIndex has now become _overlayTextureCoordinateIndex_0. Custom materials that relied on the previous naming scheme may break.

Additions 🎉

• Added CesiumCartographicPolygon and CesiumPolygonRasterOverlay, which together can be used to clip out polygonal areas of a Cesium3DTileset. These new classes are only available in Unity 2022.2+ because they require Unity's Splines package.
• Added CesiumFeatureIdSet, which represents a feature ID set in EXT_mesh_features.
• Added CesiumFeatureIdAttribute and CesiumFeatureIdTexture, which derive from CesiumFeatureIdSet and respectively represent a feature ID attribute and feature ID texture in EXT_mesh_features.
• Added CesiumPrimitiveFeatures, a component that provides access to the EXT_mesh_features on a glTF primitive when it is loaded by Cesium3DTileset.
• Added CesiumPropertyTableProperty, which represents a property table property in EXT_structural_metadata and can be used to retrieve metadata.
• Added CesiumPropertyTable, which represents a property table in EXT_structural_metadata.
• Added CesiumModelMetadata, a component that provides access to the EXT_structural_metadata on a glTF model when it is loaded by Cesium3DTileset.
• Added CesiumMetadataValue, which can hold a metadata value from EXT_structural_metadata while abstracting away its type.
• Added a distance property to CesiumOriginShift, which specifies the maximum allowed distance from the current origin before it is shifted.
• Added support for the KHR_texture_transform glTF extension - including rotation - in baseColorTexture, metallicRoughnessTexture, emissiveTexture, normalTexture, and occlusionTexture. The transformation is now applied on the GPU via nodes in the Material, rather than on the CPU by directly modifying texture coordinates.
• Added materialKey to CesiumRasterOverlay, which matches the overlay to its corresponding parameters in the tileset's material. This allows for explicit ordering of raster overlays and overlay-specific effects.
• CesiumCameraController can now accept custom input actions that override the default inputs.

Fixes 🔧

• Removed the "Universal Additional Camera Data" script from DynamicCamera, as it shows up as a missing script in other render pipelines.
• Fixed a bug where adding a CesiumSubScene as the child of an existing CesiumGeoreference in editor would cause the parent CesiumGeoreference to have its coordinates reset to the default.
• Fixed the "DynamicCamera is not nested inside a game object with a CesiumGeoreference" warning when adding a new DynamicCamera in the editor.
• Fixed support for loading textures with less than four channels.
• Fixed "Destroying assets is not permitted to avoid data loss" error when using a custom opaque material with texture assets on a Cesium3DTileset.
• Fixed jump at the end of the flight path in CesiumFlyToController.

Deprecated ⏳

• CesiumMetadata has been deprecated. Instead, retrieve the CesiumModelMetadata component attached to a tile game object in order to access its glTF metadata.
• CesiumFeature has been deprecated. Instead, retrieve feature IDs from the CesiumPrimitiveFeatures component attached to a primitive game object in order to access its glTF features. Feature IDs can be used to retrieve metadata from the CesiumModelMetadata attached to its parent.
• flyToGranularityDegrees in CesiumFlyToController has been deprecated. CesiumFlyToController no longer works using keypoints, so this value is unnecessary.

In addition to the above, this release updates cesium-native from v0.27.4 to v0.33.0. See the changelog for a complete list of changes in cesium-native.
