Checking Dependencies

The UMA integration module relies on both Game Creator 2 and UMA. Make sure you have these two in place before installing the module, or else it will encounter errors during script compilation.

• Unity Multipurpose Avatar (UMA) - v2.12 or latest

  • Unity Asset Store

Please note that this module consistently targets the most recent stable versions of its dependencies. Alpha or Beta versions of UMA may or may not work, but are not supported until the release version.
