For those of you who are trying to use the Photon 2 Plugin with the latest version of Unity 2018, you may be receiving a weird bug where the Photon View script cannot be added to the inspector through the Add Component button. This lesson will help you understand how to fix this problem so that you can keep working without missing a beat.
For this video, I will explain how to fix the problem in Photon where your editor and your standalone create new rooms instead of connecting to each other. This problem is not caused by any errors. Instead, it is only due to both games connecting to different region servers. You can fix this problem by manually connecting to a region while your game is still in development.

Happy New Year it is now 2019 and we are going to start this year off right, with a new Photon 2 tutorial in Unity. Animations are an important part of video games and even multiplayer video games. In this lesson, we will teach you about the Photon Animator View which is used to synchronize animations across the network. Sometimes animations don’t need to be synchronized and sometimes they do. If it doesn’t matter that each player is seeing a different part of animation at different times then the animation does not need to be synchronized. However, if the timing of the animation is critical to the gameplay of the of your game then it will be an animation that you will want to synchronize.
