Dear support/community management/forum owners,
when can we expect a alpha/beta/test version of the Scaleform plugin for Unity3D that will work with Unity 5 ?
Obviously most Unity developers already have switched to Unity 5 or are going to switch to Unity 5 soon .. except all developers that are using
the Scaleform plugin now since that does not work with Unity 5 and there is not a roadmap, an ETA or even a promise that people / developers
are working on a new version of the plugin.
This is very similar to what happened when we needed a 64-bit plugin to support the new requirements of Apple to publish both 32- and 64-bit code. It took several months and a lot of 'rioting' in the forums. We also think that adding the 64-bit support was relative simple compared to adapting the plugin to Unity 5, perhaps we're wrong.
In short we are all very worried and taking steps to completely remove Scaleform from our Unity games since we cannot rely on Autodesk to support us developers in a serious way. Not just the updates are always late, the communication to us developers is below par.
But instead of silently complaining I hope this message reaches you and also triggers a response with some information about the future of Scaleform for Unity3D.
