How to Use PlayFab in Unity 3D: Mobile Login (Lesson 3)

Create a Mobile Login System

For this lesson, we will be teaching you how to log in and register players in your game using a mobile device ID. This is all done with Unity 3D and the PlayFab SDK. There are two types of logins with the PlayFab SDK, anonymous and recovery logins. Anonymous logins do not require any user input to register the play, only the device ID. Recovery logins require some form of identification provided by the user, such as usernames and passwords.

Tutorial Setup

Welcome back to Info Game, This is the third lesson in our PlayFab tutorial series. We will teach you how to better you the PlayFab plugin with Unity 3D. In this last lesson, we taught you how to register and login a player using their username and password. In this video, we will expound on this and teach you how to Register players and log them in using mobile devices.

Before we get started you should take a look at your PlayFab backend dashboard. See if you were able to register new players from what we did in the last lesson. First, you will need to login to your PlayFab dashboard. You can find this by selecting your game in the PlayFab dashboard then select Players from the left-hand column. On the next page, you should be able to see a list of all your players.

Anonymous Logins

Now we will start coding our lesson. We will first want to open up our PlayFabLogin script. Once opened we will begin by creating an anonymous login for Android and iOS devices. This is good to have in your game because they do not require the players to give any personal information to create an account. The only information we need is the device ID which can be accessed in your login script. We will be creating this anonymous login in our start function. We will also use platform-dependent regions to create code for both Android and iOS.

Recoverable Logins

Once we have finished creating these anonymous logins we will then create a way for players to add there person login information so that their anonymous login becomes a recoverable login account.

Working in Unity

In Unity, we will duplicate our login panel and use this new panel to have players add the login information to their anonymous account. We will then create a new button that will bring up this new panel when a player clicks it.

Testing your Project

After you have finished adding all this functionality it is time to test our game. To test the mobile logins you can build your project on to an Android device. Your device should be automatically registered when the application first opens. You can check this by going back to your PlayFab dashboard and look to see if you have a new Android entry. You can then try adding a username and password to your Android account. Then go to your dashboard one more time and select your Android account and see if the same username has been added to the account.

If you are able to get all of this to work then you have done it correctly. This is everything we will talk about in this lesson. Make sure you like this video and leave any questions you have in the comments below. Also, subscribe to our channel so you can be up to date with all our content.

How to Use Playfab in Unity 3D: Login (Lesson 2)

Learn How to Create a Basic Login

we will continue our series on how to use PlayFab in Unity 3D. I will teach you how to allow the users of your game login to there PlayFab account for your game. Players will be able to register and log in to your game using an email and password. If they haven’t logged in to your game before then the code in this tutorial register the player automatically.

PlayFab Doc: https://api.playfab.com/docs/getting-started/unity-getting-started

SUBSCRIBE for regular Video Game making videos:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyoayn_uVt2I55ZCUuBVRcQ?sub_confirmation=1

Tutorial Setup

Welcome back to infoGamer, After this lesson you should have a working registration and login system for your game. To get started we will first create a new C# script. We can add this to a new folder called scripts and we will call it PlayFabLogin. We will then open our script in Visual Studio.

Login Basics

Once inside our script we will replace the start and update function with the script that can be found in the PlayFab Documentation link above or as I have pasted it here: 

using PlayFab;
using PlayFab.ClientModels;
using UnityEngine;

public class PlayFabLogin : MonoBehaviour
{
    public void Start()
    {
        //Note: Setting title Id here can be skipped if you have set the value in Editor Extensions already.
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(PlayFabSettings.TitleId)){
            PlayFabSettings.TitleId = "144"; // Please change this value to your own titleId from PlayFab Game Manager
        }
        var request = new LoginWithCustomIDRequest { CustomId = "GettingStartedGuide", CreateAccount = true};
        PlayFabClientAPI.LoginWithCustomID(request, OnLoginSuccess, OnLoginFailure);
    }

    private void OnLoginSuccess(LoginResult result)
    {
        Debug.Log("Congratulations, you made your first successful API call!");
    }

    private void OnLoginFailure(PlayFabError error)
    {
        Debug.LogWarning("Something went wrong with your first API call.  :(");
        Debug.LogError("Here's some debug information:");
        Debug.LogError(error.GenerateErrorReport());
    }
}

Now if we want we could go back to Unity and test out this script to make sure it is working. You will want to create a new empty game object rename it to PlayFabLogin and we will attach our script to this object in the inspector. After clicking player you should receive a message in the console that says “Congratulations, you have made your first successful API call!”

Customize Script

Now we are not quite done yet, we need to customize our PlayFabLogin script so that it will work with a player’s Email, Username, and Password. To do this we will comment out the last to lines of our start function and we will create a new HTTP POST request. The request we will use is called LoginWithEmailAddressRequest.

We will then create some new variables up at the top of our script for holding the player’s personal information. We will then pass these variables into our request and finally, we will send our request.

We will then create some public function that we can pair to some input field which we will use to receive the player’s input to register and log them into their accounts. We will need one for Email, Username, and Password. Finally, we will need to create a public function that we can pair to a submit button. Inside this function, we will copy and paste our login request function.

We then need to create and register request when we fail to login. Player’s will fail to login in if they have not registered. We can add this code to the callback function for login failures.

If we successfully register a player or successfully log them into their PlayFab account then we want to save their login information. This way we can automatically log them in if there return to our application.

Working in Unity

Now that we are done with our code we can save our script and return to Unity. In Unity, we need to create our Registration/Login panel. We will need three UI input fields and one UI button. You will then need to pair the different input functions we create.

Test your Project

We can now test our game. In player mode, you should now be able to fill out the input fields and click submit. If everything is working properly you should see the Login panel disappear. In the console, you should see a number of different debug messages telling you it was a success. If you restart your game, your game should automatically log you into your PlayFab account.

This is everything we will cover in this lesson. I hope you enjoy it. If you did leave like and a comment. Also please give us a sub.

How to Use Playfab in Unity 3D: Setup (Lesson 1)

Start Creating Cloud Saving Games

For this new tutorial series, we will be teaching you about the Playfab SDK and how to use it in Unity 3D. The PlayFab plugin helps the developer implement cloud saving features and other bonus features in their projects. Cloud saving is very important to have, especially if your game is multiplayer or has In-App Purchases (IAPs).

Learning about PlayFab

Welcome to Info gamer for this lesson we will show you how to get started with the PlayFab SDK in Unity. We have been receiving a number of requests from many of our subscribers to do this series so here we go.

If you want to learn about all the different feature PlayFab offers your game you can then go to the PlayFab link I have provided above. Cloud saving is going to be the most important feature you can implement in your game.

New Project

To get started we will want to create a new Unity project. We then want to navigate over to the PlayFab documentation. We can then scroll down to where it says pick your SDK. We will select the Unity link. This will take you to where you can download the Unity PlayFab SDK extension package.

Import the Package

Once you have this Package downloaded to your computer we then need to go to our newly created Unity Project. We will then go to Assets > Import Package > Custom Package. You will then need to find to the location where you save the PlayFab package, select it, then click import. This will then open a new window with a list of everything in the package. With everything selected we will click import and then we must wait for our project to finish processing the new files.

Connect to PlayFab

Once import you will see another new window called PlayFab EdEx. In this window, you can register yourself and the studio with the PlayFab website. If you already have an account you can skip this step. Once you and your project are registered you then need to connect your project title to your registered account. You can do this using the drop-down menu provided. After this, your project is all set up and connected to your PlayFab account.
