Mesh Toolkit Update – Questions about Unity, Code Customization & Timeline
Hi everyone, I just read the recent announcement about the Microsoft Mesh Toolkit being retired as of June 24th, 2025, and I have to say it came quite suddenly. According to the message, the toolkit will be replaced with a new in-app, no-code customization experience. I have a few important questions: 1. Will Unity still be supported? Many of us (including our team) rely on Unity for creating and publishing Mesh experiences. Will this integration continue to work, or is it being phased out along with the toolkit? 2. Will code-based customization (scripting, APIs, etc.) still be possible? Or is everything moving toward a purely no-code model? That would be unfortunate—custom scripting has been essential for our more complex experiences. 3. When can we expect the new tools to be available? Is there a timeline or preview we can test? And when will we be able to migrate/update our existing environments to the new system? We currently run several meetings and collaborative sessions in Mesh spaces, so this change has a big impact on us. A clear migration plan would really help us prepare. Looking forward to hearing from the team and from others in the same boat! Best regards
No events showing in Microsoft Mesh after latest update
Yesterday mesh auto updated and ever since I can't view any ongoing or past events. This happened right before an important demo. Am I the only one with this issue? On the web the event is active. I can also find it on my laptop, which has not updated the app. However, on my VR headset it displays that no events are active. The outcome is the same for both organizers and participants of the event We found a workaround which was to guide the participants into the Environment Template, but that's complicated for people not that aren't used to VR or, tech in general. This needs to be fixed!
No differentiation between Avatar Triggers
Unity version: 2022.3.34 Mesh version: 5.2414.130 Hello, I have noticed an issue that appears when you have multiple Avatar Triggers in one scene. The issue is that the scripts attached to them will run regardless of which Trigger zone the avatar enters. Let's say, I have 2 trigger zones (1 and 2) and both of them have script (doesn't matter if it's the same script or different ones). If the script on Trigger zone 1 do ABC when Avatar Trigger value changed to true and Trigger zone 2 do XYZ when Avatar Trigger value changed to true, both ABC and XYZ will happen regardless if the avatar only entered Trigger zone 1 or Trigger zone 2. I have tried using different scripts, saved each Avatar Trigger component in different variables, Used different tags but the issue seems to be in the Avatar Trigger logic itself (even having an Avatar trigger game object with no scripts attached to it will trigger the scripts on other game objects). Of course I could have done something wrong, and I would appreciate some guidance if that's the case.
