Upon installation UFE will attempt to automatically update the Input Manager under Project Settings. If this fails, you might end up with a few errors such as controls not working or characters falling off the screen. A common description of this error can be found in the Unity's error console as “UnityException: Input Axis (..) is not setup”. To fix this error and update your Input Manager settings follow these steps:

• Close Unity.
• Using the explorer and navigate to (Project Folder)\Assets\UFE\ProjectSettings
• Open ProjectSettings.zip
• Extract its content to (Project Folder)\ProjectSettings
• Reopen your project in Unity

Opening the demo files:

• Navigate to UFE\Demo\ (or UFE\Demos\[game-mode]) and double click Demo.unity. Hit play to start the Demo.
• To open the global config file for the demo, click on UFE\Demo\Config.asset and under the inspector, click to open the Global Editor.
• To edit a Character file, navigate to UFE\Demo\Characters\[Character]\[Character].asset or, under the Global Editor, select Characters.
• To edit a Move file, unfold the Move Set option under the Character Editor or navigate to .\UFE\Characters\[Character]\Moves\[Move].asset.
• You can also open any of the editors from the top toolbar under Window → U.F.E..
• To create a new UFE file, under the Project Tab, click Create→UFE and select the file of your choice.
• The best way to get used to the tool is playing with the template files. Once you get used to the interface, start watching our videos and navigate through the content.

Starting a new scene:

• Click File > New Scene
• Make sure you have a camera on scene (Hierarchy view).
• Create a new Game Object, click Add component and type UFE.
