1.29.0

Major Fixes and Changes

SSL Support in Toolbox

We added SSL support to the Toolbox with the new genvid-sdk generate-ssl command. It lets you create a certificate that uses Vault as the Certificate Authority. The bastion setup script (genvid-bastion install) configures Vault so that you can create a certificate using the new command.

If the Vault setup was excluded from the default setup of your bastion for some reason, you can add the required configuration to Vault using the genvid-bastion setup-vault-engines command.

See the documentation for more information.

Unity 2020.3 LTS Official Support

The Genvid SDK now officially supports Unity LTS version 2020.3.
