Install the Banter Unity SDK and Build Your First Space

Banter provides an official Unity installer package and the Banter Builder editor window. The SDK can package a Unity scene as a space, package prefabs as a kit bundle, or prepare a GameObject as an avatar.

Official Setup Path

Create the correct Unity project, import Banter's installer, and complete the build through Banter Builder.

Create a Unity project that is compatible with the current Banter SDK package.
Import the official Banter installer package into the Project panel.
Open Banter > Banter Builder, add the content you want to build, then use the available build action.

1. Create the Unity Project

The current Banter SDK package manifest declares Unity 2022.3 with unityRelease 39f1. Use that package metadata as the minimum compatibility reference for the current SDK source, and confirm the installed package's own manifest before starting a production project. The manifest does not declare a required render pipeline.

2. Import the Banter Installer

Download the official Banter installer package. Drag the .unitypackage into Unity's Project panel and import it.

After the package finishes importing, Unity should expose a Banter menu in the top menu bar.

3. Open Banter Builder

Open Banter > Banter Builder. The content you add depends on what you are publishing:

Creator task	What Banter's guide tells you to add
Build a space	Drag the Unity scene file onto Banter Builder.
Build a kit bundle	Drag prefabs onto Banter Builder.
Build an avatar	Open the Avatar tab and drag a GameObject from the Hierarchy.

For an avatar, Banter's guide also calls out head-object visibility for the local wearer and the need to set eye and feet positions and orientations correctly.

4. Build or Upload

Use Build, or Build & Upload when signed in. Banter's official guide says the build exports asset bundles into:

Assets/WebRoot

Check the Unity Console after the build. Resolve errors before treating the exported content as ready for testing or upload.

Common Questions

Which Unity version should I use for Banter?

The current official package manifest declares Unity 2022.3 with unityRelease 39f1. Check the manifest included with the package you are installing because this compatibility value can change.

Which render pipeline should I select?

The current public documentation does not name a required render pipeline. Confirm the supported project configuration before importing the SDK into a production project.

Where is Banter Builder after installation?

Open it from the Unity menu at Banter > Banter Builder. If that menu is missing, check whether the package finished importing and whether the Console reports import or compile errors.
