About

What is OpenAI-Unity?

OpenAI-Unity is an unofficial Unity package designed to help game developers seamlessly integrate the OpenAI API into their Unity projects. This package enables the direct use of OpenAI's powerful AI capabilities, such as ChatGPT for conversational AI and DALL.E for image generation, within the Unity game engine. Developers can make asynchronous requests to the OpenAI API, including stream requests for real-time interactions. The package provides clear instructions for importing, setting up an OpenAI account, and securely saving API credentials. It also includes sample projects like a ChatGPT-like chat example and a DALL.E text-to-image generation example, making it easier for developers to get started with AI-driven game features. It supports various Unity versions for different platforms, including WebGL builds, though some known issues with WebGL are documented.

Best used for

Ideal for developers who need to embed advanced AI capabilities into their Unity games, create dynamic and interactive game experiences, and leverage OpenAI's models for features like intelligent NPCs or procedural content generation. Especially valuable for rapid prototyping and integrating cutting-edge AI without leaving the Unity environment.

FAQs

How do I import the OpenAI-Unity package into my Unity project?

To import the package, open Unity 2019 or later, go to Window > Package Manager, click the '+' button, select 'Add package from git URL', and paste 'https://github.com/srcnalt/OpenAI-Unity.git'. This will add the package to your project.

How can I securely store my OpenAI API key when using this package?

You can securely store your API key by creating a '.openai' folder in your home directory and an 'auth.json' file within it. Add your 'api_key' and 'organization' (if applicable) to this JSON file. This method prevents exposing your key directly in your Unity project code.

Are there any known issues when using OpenAI-Unity with WebGL builds?

Yes, there are a couple of known issues. Image results from DALL.E may not download in local WebGL builds due to CORS policies, requiring deployment to a server. Additionally, Unity 2020 WebGL has a bug where stream responses might return empty, suggesting an update to a newer Unity version.
