De eerste & enige
tekst-engine voor Unity
Elke taal. Elke emoji. Elke stijl. Productiewaardig, uitbreidbaar, hoogperformant, gebouwd op industriestandaarden.
Unicode 17.0 · HarfBuzz · SDF/MSDF · Variabele lettertypen · Zero GC
1,8 miljard gebruikers vergeten
Als je game Arabisch-, Hebreeuws-, Hindi-, Thai- of Bengaalssprekende spelers heeft — toont TextMeshPro hen kapotte tekst. Dit zijn geen randgevallen — het is een kwart van de wereldbevolking.
Alles wat je nodig hebt
Gebouwd op dezelfde technologieën als Chrome, Firefox, Adobe en Android.
Elk schriftsysteem
Elk schrift op aarde — getest en geslaagd. 891.757 officiële Unicode-conformiteitstests, nul fouten. Van Arabisch tot Tibetaans.
Variabele lettertypen
Eén lettertypebestand, oneindige variaties. Animeer gewicht, breedte, helling vloeiend — in realtime. Eén lettertype vervangt je hele lettertypefamilie.
100 UniText + 100 TextMeshPro instances die tegelijk Font Size animeren. Ze staan op dezelfde positie gestapeld, dus alle 200 zien eruit als één blok.
Multi-coreverwerking
Tekstlay-out draait op alle CPU-kernen. 100, 500, 1000 tekstobjecten — prestaties schalen lineair.
Kleur-emoji
Gezinnen 👨👩👧👦, vlaggen 🇬🇪, huidtinten 👋🏻👋🏿 — allemaal correct. Gebruikt apparaatlettertypen: geen impact op buildgrootte, altijd up-to-date.
Omtrek & schaduw
Rich text-effecten via eenvoudige tags. Aanpasbare kleur, dikte, offset en zachtheid — volledig GPU-versneld.
3D-wereldtekst
Tekst in 3D-ruimte via MeshRenderer — geen Canvas vereist. Volledige functiepariteit: elke taal, elke emoji, elk effect — in wereldruimte.
Geen enkele andere Unity-tekstoplossing doet dit.
CJK zonder lettertypebestanden
Chinees, Japans en Koreaans komen rechtstreeks uit het systeem — geen fonts in je build, geen voorgebakken atlas. Memory-mapped: alleen de gebruikte glyphs belanden in het RAM.
Slimme woordafbreking
Thai, Lao en andere Zuidoost-Aziatische schriften gebruiken geen spaties tussen woorden. UniText weet waar regels afgebroken moeten worden — correct, elke keer.
100% Unicode-conformiteit
Elke officiële Unicode-test. Geslaagd. Geen uitzonderingen, geen voorbehouden.
Benchmarkvergelijking
Echte benchmarks op een Android-productiebuild.
Snelheidsvergelijking
Geheugen & GC
* 100 objecten, 10 iteraties, 3 warmups, ~2300 tekens per object (Latijn + Arabisch + Hebreeuws + Gemengd). UniText.UseParallel = false.
Glyph-rendering
Glyphs toevoegen aan de texture-atlas
Kleinere builds en bundels
Lettertypecompressie houdt je uitgeleverde game piepklein
Decompressie binnen een milliseconde tijdens runtime — spelers merken er niets van.
Gebouwd op een andere schaal
De codebase vertelt het verhaal — UniText is een complete tekst-engine, geen component.
Veel meer engine — en toch sneller en slanker dan TMP.
Alle platforms ondersteund
Native HarfBuzz- en FreeType-bibliotheken gecompileerd voor elk belangrijk platform en elke architectuur.

- 1.TMP has no native BiDi/Arabic/Hebrew. The usual plugin (RTL Text Mesh Pro) is a workaround, not real RTL: no proper Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm (UAX #9) — a heuristic glyph "fixer" whose own docs note mixed English/RTL multiline text breaks — and Arabic-script shaping via a fixed presentation-form table only (no OpenType shaping, no other complex scripts).
- 2.UI Toolkit: requires the Advanced Text Generator (HarfBuzz/ICU) — opt-in in Unity 6.4, default from 6.5. Without ATG there is no shaping/BiDi/ICU.
- 3.TMP does not compose ZWJ/skin-tone/flag sequences at all; UI Toolkit attempts them but Unity itself flags emoji with flags and skin tones as "problematic".
- 4.TMP has no bundled UCD table: emoji data tracks Unicode 14.0, character properties come from the .NET runtime.
- 5.UI Toolkit text-generation parallelization ships in Unity 6.5.
- 6.No engine builds true extruded 3D geometry. UniText stacks offset quad copies (2.5D, z=0) with a near→far gradient and a bevel mode; TMP uses a faux bevel via normal-map shading.
- 7.TMP fixed-ratio distribution (wordWrappingRatios 0.4) forces ~40% of the slack into inter-letter spacing on every script (not script-aware), hardcodes last-line alignment (no text-align-last), and tolerates 5% box overflow.
- 8.UniText merges all UniTextWorld components sharing a material and sorting into one mesh → typically a single draw call per group (extra meshes only past the ~64k-vertex limit). World-space TextMeshPro renders each object as its own MeshRenderer with no cross-object batching, so draw calls grow linearly with the number of text objects.
- 9.UniText direct developer support: responses within 10 minutes, bug fixes from 1 hour to 1 day, feature implementation from 3 hours to 3 days. TMP and UI Toolkit only have Unity’s official issue tracker and community forums, with no guaranteed response or fix times.

- 1.TMP has no native BiDi/Arabic. RTL editing needs a third-party plugin (RTL Text Mesh Pro) — a heuristic glyph "fixer", not real RTL: no proper Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm (UAX #9), only fixed Arabic-script presentation forms (no OpenType shaping), with known mixed-direction multiline issues.
- 2.UI Toolkit RTL/complex-script editing requires the Advanced Text Generator (opt-in in Unity 6.4, default from 6.5).
- 3.UI Toolkit’s runtime TextField has no undo/redo (the handler’s UndoRedoPerformed is an unimplemented TODO); editor IMGUI fields are a separate path.
- 4.TMP’s "Allow Rich Text Editing" edits the raw markup string (tags preserved) — there is no command to toggle bold/italic/color over a selection.
- 5.Both TMP and UI Toolkit copy/paste plain text only via Unity’s systemCopyBuffer — no HTML/Markdown/RTF or images.
- 6.UI Toolkit’s cut/copy/paste context menu is wired only in the Editor (EditorContextualMenuManager); a built player has no built-in text context menu.
Klaar om elke taal te ondersteunen?
Stop met vechten tegen kapot Arabisch, ontbrekende emoji en RTL-bugs. UniText regelt het allemaal.
