Plugin Installation

1. Launch Consulo

2. Search for Unity3D install plugin with dependencies
3. Once everything has been installed, close the settings window and restart Consulo.

2. Select Configure
3. Select Settings (or Preferences on macOS)
4. On the left, under SDKs/Bundles/Tools
5. Press the green (black on OS X) ➕ icon, and choose Unity3D
6. Locate your Unity installation directory, select it and then press OK

All set!

Manually Importing a Unity Project

1. From the File menu, select Open or Import project
2. Select the root directory of your Unity Project, press OK
3. You'll be prompted to “Open or Import project” (choose Unity3D if needed), then OK
4. On the next window, ensure the correct Unity SDK is selected, and press Finish

The project is now opened in Consulo

Configuring Consulo as the external script editor for Unity

1. Launch Unity Editor
2. From the Edit menu, select Preferences
