    I can use Kinect and Unity to make games? I have seen Cinema Mo Cap, but it seems that this plugin only serves to record animations, I want to use Kinect to play at runtime, it is possible with Unity? any information will be appreciated,

    P.S: And of course not want to play in the editor, I want to play the game once compiled, it is possible for example to detect if Kinect is connected?


    Thanks in advance

    Yes, I have a xbox Kinect, but seems that plugins only work with Windows not with Mac… I'll try to see how it works , I would also like to know if you have options to detect if the kinect is connected, etc etc.
