Synty® Studios Presents: POLYGON - Arid Desert - Nature Biome
Beneath the relentless sun, our 3D Low Poly Arid Desert biomes pack unfolds a tale of desolation and survival.
The landscape, dominated by rolling dunes of unyielding golden sand, stretches endlessly, a canvas of isolation. Vegetation clings desperately to life, their twisted forms casting long shadows in the relentless heat. The sun-bleached colour palette captures the harsh beauty of a world forgotten by rain.
With meticulous detailing in environment materials, textures, FX and props, this asset pack allows you to weave a game narrative of solitude and survival in this unforgiving, arid desert.

Great asset. These Biomes have been on my wish list for a while.
Did get 'is self-intersecting and has been discarded' and 'Can't import tangents and binormals' warnings. I used unity-polygon-store-importer-08232023 to import all of the Season One and Two Biomes at once
This would have been 5 Stars if upgrading to URP the Post Processing profiles where changed to URP Volume Profile so I did not have to install Post Processing V2 into the project. Note that the Bloom effect is missing the Dirtiness Texture guessing it is because the GUI ID for the default lens dirt texture is referencing is different depending on the Post Processing version you are using (A Post Processing problem).
In Unity 6 after Updating to URP the scene Loaded but some of the materials that were using Synty Shaders did not display, see my POLYGON - Tropical Jungle - Nature Biome review for more details, as I did not trouble shoot this one in Unity 6 after trouble shooting the Tropical Jungle by itself, I am assuming it is the same exact issue.
Hopefully this will be updated to use Unity 6 once it is out of Preview. Because of the Rendering Performance alone, not to mention some of the other Unity 6 only features.
Thanks for the review and providing us feedback. At this stage we only support LTS versions of Unity. We'll work to add support for Unity 6 once it reaches LTS.
