Unity has command line options for manual activation.
Thus, Unity Hub's manual activation dialog can be easily replicated, which would be great, because Unity Hub would no longer be needed!

In Unity Hub

Is there a way to do this in HubNative?

I don't know how to describe my issue but when I try to add a unity project to the hub and close it after I'm done working and close it the next time you try to open it there's no projects I have to manually add my unity projects to the every time I start working. It seems like even the hub saves it on my AppData folder it doesn't load my project lists from that but just started with an empty list.
Here's the files that I've found from my UnityHubNative folder residing in my appdata folder
*Sorry for my bad english
projects.txt
editorPaths.txt
*

when an editor is already installed there is no way to use it

Describe the solution you'd like
"add existing editor"

Describe alternatives you've considered
n/a

Additional context
When installing unity from Nintendo SDK it's done from an exe installer, not the hub

Release 1.42 does not open on Mac, 1.4.1 does open. the zip seems incomplete

currently the browser is in single folder selection mode
it could be in multi selection and that would allow to add entire folders or drives to Hub Native.
power that the webapp from unity doesn't have ;)

Can I use this one without the official unityhub?

Describe the bug
Every time I try to create a new project, I get a pop-up window that says "Creating project folder failed!" and no other error messages or logs. The hub also successfully creates the project folder, but it's empty. I made sure to choose a location that doesn't already contain a folder with the same name as the project.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. add "C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2021.1.25f1\Editor" to install search paths
2. click "Projects" -> "Create New"
3. name the project
4. set location to a folder than doesn't already contain a sub-folder with the same name as the project
5. select "3d-5.0.4.tgz"
6. click "Create"

Expected behavior
I expected the hub to put files in the project folder and not say something failed.

Computer information:

• OS: Windows 10 Home version 20H2 OS build 19042.1348
• IDE version (if applicable): Visual Studio 2019

repro:
go in the editor version tab
click install new (the window is collapsed by the way, so it needs to be resized - another bug)
search 11 (unlike project the search here requires pressing enter - another bug)
select 2021.3.11 then click on install selected
= nothing
should ne installing that version

it's in nativehub 1.5 with the awesome new multi project select and live search

The "open with specific editor" window pops up every time and it feels like that should not be the default setting if I have the correct version, and have opened the project in that version many times.

When the full name of the project and path are too long, you need to adjust columns every run.

Describe the bug

• Close Window menu doesn't work on Windows
• Incorrect string telling users to use the official hub when creating new project if no Unity instances are found
• some menus do nothing if the state of the app is invalid, instead of disabling themselves or displaying a warning dialog

I am noticing there is a rendering issue on the UHN taskbar icon. I can only see a couple white dots for the logo.

I think all that is needed is an updated scaling for this logo.

I am using windows 11. Here is a photo of what I see.

Not sure if this is even possible since I can't find those versions on the Unity download archive, but maybe someone can figure out where the official hub is grabbing its links from?
Keep up the great work and thanks for creating this!

example: no idea which project was being added, should remember that, right? until you start working with 4 laptops

Hey there,
I was quite excited to come across this, as it looks great but then I saw there was no Linux version yet. : ( I will be keeping an eye on it for whenever it does come out!

Thanks,
-MH

I will probably never use the unity learn tab and when I still want to I would open a browser.
Its not a major issue but I would love it if I can hide this tab :)

currently when i double click a project and the unity version isn't on the machine it'll display an error.
instead it should display the list of unity editors that's installed and offer to change the unity version, like unity hub

picture...thousand words

Description of the Problem

The Linux AppImage seems to be broken. I can run it just fine, but there is no icon, and it fails to be integrated to the system with AppImageLauncher. The logs suggest that both the icon and the desktop entry aren't working.

This has been verified to not be an issue with AppImageLauncher, as I've tested other AppImages and they integrate to the system just fine.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download the latest Linux release of UnityHubNative.
2. Have AppImageLauncher installed in your system.
3. Unzip and make the UnityHubNative AppImage executable.
4. Run the AppImage, and integrate it to the system.

Expected behavior
The AppImage gets integrated to the system as usual.

Screenshots and/or logs

When running from a terminal, we get the following logs:

$ ./UnityHubNative.AppImage 
WARNING: No icons found at "usr/share/icons"
WARNING: Using .DirIcon as default app icon
ERROR: Unable to load image.
ERROR: No icon was generated for: /home/henrique/Applications/UnityHubNative_856452fd4606b11d68f9e6b7d15a6679.AppImage
ERROR: appimage_register_in_system : Missing Desktop Entry
Directory '/home/henrique/.local/share/mime/packages' does not exist!

Computer information:

• OS: Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS

Additional context
Just for comparison, these are the logs when integrating the draw.io AppImage to the system. There is a bunch of other icon extraction logs in here, one for each icon size. I've ommited them for simplicity.

Extracting usr/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024/apps/drawio.png to "/home/henrique/.local/share/icons/hicolor/1024x1024/apps/appimagekit_c316550eb423e6c34d30fe7c366e5806_drawio.png"

gtk-update-icon-cache: Cache file created successfully.
Directory '/home/henrique/.local/share/mime/packages' does not exist!

I suspect this may be something that can't be controlled, but I find that what happens is:

• I launch UnityHubNative on Mac and it's deliciously fast. I tell it to open my project.
• My project launches correctly in Unity, hooray!
• But then the official UnityHub opens automatically too 😫

I guess this is something on the Unity side, I don't suppose there is anything we can do to prevent it? (I guess I could just delete it! But I'd like to keep it around just in case...)

when closed, the app is really closed so we have to relaunch it each time

Describe the solution you'd like
add an option "minimize to tray on close"

Describe the bug
When opening the Install New Editor Version popup, no versions show up, and instead you get an Unable to access Unity versions popup.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to Editor Versions tab and click on the Install New button

Additional context
Apparently Unity recently changed the URL to access Unity versions. (See GameCI fixing the same issue here game-ci/versioning-backend#43)

Describe the bug
In the Create dialog, choose a Unity version, but a different one will be used when creating the project.

Additional context
Bug in CreateProjectDialogD::OnCreate:72

The projects list seems to be initially sorted by order that the projects were added, and then on future launches seems to reverse the sort order every time.

I have a lot of projects, and while most of the time, I want them sorted by modified, I sometimes want them sorted by name. I never want them sorted by order added, and I certainly don't want the list to be different every time.

Please allow sorting by clicking on column headers, and remember the selected sort order.

The default window size is cutting off some content, I propose to make the default window a bit larger as can be seen in the screenshots.

It would be useful if the new project window could remember the previous project location.

It would also be useful if the templates were at least sorted by name, and use a more friendly name as they do in the official Unity Hub if possible.

It would also be useful if the window were sized so that the templates list didn't wrap into multiple columns, showed more of the project path, and ideally remembered the previously used size.

Ideally:

UnityHubNatve version used is 1.5
Anytime I close and reopen the application no project, installed editor version or install search path is retained.
Both Unity Hub and UnityHubnative are installed in my D:/ drive, my pc is running Windows 11 Home 21H2 build 22000.1281.

with over 50 projects, finding the one is a struggle. always on search was implemented in unity bloat 3.0, that's what's missing here.

repro:
install a version with the official hub (aka slug-hub)
open a project with that version = version is now tagged to that version of the editor
install native hub
add location, point to that editor
add existing, point to the project
double click on the project

= still not recognized
should be: recognized and launch

hey there, thanks for this great tool.
Unity Hub is extremely slow on apple silicon macs, so this has been great.

however, it would be great if the processor architecture could be displayed when installing versions.
this is what Unity's hub does:

Unity Hub Native doesn't indicate if it's apple silicon or intel:

Thanks

repro (i think):
enter search term that returns 1 project
hibernate or sleep laptop
revive
eras search term
= still only one project shown
should be : all project shown

I have a Unity project on an external drive and sometimes the drive is not connected to the computer ( Then its on the laptop )
And when I open unity hub native the when the drive is not attached to open any other project on my computer it will remove the project from the list in unity hub native.

I would prefer it if the project stayed in the list and just was grayed out.
I could then later attach the drive and the project will still be visible in the list.

Now I have to add the projects back every time and its a bit tedious.

Hope this can be added, thanks.

And if I want to remove a project I can already do that manually.

instead, it's the previously selected project that remains selected

See video.

Here I have a project named "New Unity Project" and I add a cube to the sample scene and save. Then I go to create a new project in UnityHubNative, leave the name at the default "New Unity Project" and it proceeds to overwrite the existing project with that name with no warning, I assume replacing all files from the template (you can see the sample scene goes from today 12:29 back to Nov 2020 and the added cube is gone).

This is very destructive. There should be a warning about overwriting an existing project.
