Editor won't open in 5.6

Keenan Woodall 7 years ago updated by Demian Ford 2 years ago 6

I'm using 5.6 and the editor wont open. The shaders work fine, but again, I can't edit anything or create anything with Shader Forge. Here's a recording of it not working.

Thanks for finding this out! This has been an issue for a very long time, and nobody had ever really found a consistent way to get Unity to download the correct one. I presume it works now?

So the asset store thought I had the latest version. I actually didn't have the latest version and Unity wouldn't let me update because it thought everything was up-to-date. I had to delete the local asset cache under C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\Unity\Asset Store-5.x so that I could update without Unity thinking I already had the most recent version installed.

Yea it works perfectly now :

I want to clarify for anyone searching for the solution to this problem in Unity 2017. The Asset Store is finding an old version in the cache folder instead of downloading the latest (currently v1.38) On a Mac, you need to navigate to Users\XXX\Library\Unity\Asset Store-5.x and delete the folder "Joachim Holmr". You can then download Shader Forge from the Asset Store normally and it will install and open. Many thanks to Keenan Woodall for finally solving this.

Hey joachim! i'm on unity 5.6.3 and when I go and click window>shader forge. nothing happens. I dont even get any errors. im at a total loss of what to do. ive already tried everything above and tried in a entirely new project.

I've always dreamt of winning BIG in the lottery. I surfed the internet for help to win the lottery massively and I was directed to the DR Amber website. I had a chat with him about what I needed and he assured me that his spell will make me become a lottery winner. He got back to me after 3 days with the numbers that I needed to play the lottery and told me to believe in myself. I felt enveloped by the control of the spell. I took his words and played the Mega Millions Lottery. Two days later, I was sent an email that I've won the sum of 107 Million Dollars. I was shocked and couldn't believe what my eyes were seeing. Immediately I was given the cash prize, I stopped working. I want to say a very big thank you to DR Amber for helping people like us who really need help. Now I know that there's absolutely nothing too hard for DR Amber to do. To get in touch with him, email : [ amberlottotemple@yahoo.com ] or click his webpage URL___ amberlottotemple.com
