Web player performance problem on MAC OS X

Question

Hello,

my application works fine on Windows (all browsers) but is laggy on Mac OS X (with all browsers except Camino). Did somebody have the same problem? I am wondering if the problem occurs with every application or is caused by one of my scripts or shaders...

Thanking you in advance,

Martin

Unity support answer :

It is possible that somet$$anonymous$$ng in your project reacts badly with the Mac browsers but it could also be a fault with the Unity player. There only seems to be one other performance issue reported for Mac webplayers

Hey,

I don't t$$anonymous$$nk that it would be anyt$$anonymous$$ng in your game that is causing it to be slow, as you said that t worked fine on windows, and that I worked fine on Camino

What I would t$$anonymous$$nk that it is, is probably the browser that is lagging, if it is Safari thy is lagging, then I would just reccomend uninstalling the web player, restarting your computer, reinstalling the web player, and then restarting again, and seeing if that works!!!!!

If its Firefox, then try uninstalling and reinstalling that too. (Don't wory, Firefox should still keep your preferences and settings after uninstalling, at less that's what it did on my Mac when I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox). See if that works.... Also, how is your game becoming laggy?

Hope t$$anonymous$$s fixes, and if you need more help, then just comment back!

Thanks for your answer!

I think that i could be something in my game because we already had some problems with Mac OS (see the link : http://answers.unity3d.com/questions/182960/changelog-unity-webplayer-342f3.html) Rendering methods are differents on Windows and Mac and depending on the browser.

Moreover, all our users have the same problem...

Oh ok, then yes, it must be your game.... What version of unity are you using? Because I noticed in the link to the question above it says version 3.4.2f3..... Try upgrading to 3.5 public beta.... That's what I am using now, and there isn't anything wrong with it!!!!!!

It's better but not ok at all! (about 3 fsp to 10 fps...) And there is still a big gap between Windows (or Camino on Mac) and Mac (Safari, chrome or firefox) Unity support answers that they are not able to reproduce the bug with the last version they have... So I hope it will be fix with the next update...
