  • Okay thanks for the update! I have got some explanations – user5155805 Aug 10 '17 at 23:19
  • @Terrance This isn't an exact duplicate.. they're asking different questions. – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:20

    @Seth Doesn't it start with Possible duplicate and not just duplicate. Plus there are answers in there about Unity ending. – Terrance Aug 10 '17 at 23:29

    @Terrance There's a reason the actual close banner says "exact duplicate". The duplicate system is for duplicate questions, not answers. – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:30
  • @Seth So, tell me why this one was closed as a dupe and the question seems different? – Terrance Aug 10 '17 at 23:33
  • @Seth I am not seeing the wording "exact duplicate" when I choose VTC. – Terrance Aug 10 '17 at 23:39
  • @Terrance Probably for the same mistaken reason this one is getting close votes ;) Although command-line questions are often more difficult because the only thing that changes are the arguments. – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:41

    @Terrance Hmm, looks like they indeed changed the wording. After 5 years I can no longer keep track of everything anymore >.< my point still stands, however. Two very different questions being asked here. – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:42
  • @Seth I only chose this one to point OP to that question as there is hope that they can still use Unity. – Terrance Aug 10 '17 at 23:42
  • @Terrance Plenty of ways to do that without casting a close vote. Most people just say "Related: " – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:43
  • @Seth I have seen it every both ways. This is one thing I find very frustrating on this site! – Terrance Aug 10 '17 at 23:44

    We can continue this discussion in chat. – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:44

Unity is DISCONTINUED - Nobody has forked Unity 7 yet!

Unity will still be available in the repository. So you could install it if you want until it quit working.

    you need to @-tag me or I don't see your comment. I edited your answer like that because as-is, IMO, the formatting is obnoxious and unnecessary. – wjandrea Aug 10 '17 at 23:31
  • Yes, the bold is way over the top IMO – Seth Aug 10 '17 at 23:32
  • But it made it clear – MathCubes Aug 10 '17 at 23:32

    @MathCubes Not any more clear than just plain text. It's a short answer, so IMO, you don't need any fancy formatting whatsoever. – wjandrea Aug 10 '17 at 23:33
  • @wjandrea My way of formatting anything is to make the important stuff in. So people don't need to read the junk if they don't want to. Like "The" "Is", etc... – MathCubes Aug 10 '17 at 23:35
  • So if it is important more then the other important stuff, it gets even bolder. – MathCubes Aug 10 '17 at 23:39

    @MathCubes But it's just so short that it doesn't matter. That is, it's three sentences. It takes 10 seconds to read it all. – wjandrea Aug 10 '17 at 23:44
  • @wjandrea that you, but however, if you have problems with reading or reading so much that you can truly no longer comprehension it. Then it still matters, because I am like that. – MathCubes Aug 10 '17 at 23:45
