    Hey, trying to add the PostProcessingLayer component to a camera at runtime (5.6.4p1, obtained via Nintendo Dev Interface) and get following error:
    The problem seems to be that the PostProcessRenderContext is not initialized correctly. How can I force this?

    Also curious why there is a difference between adding the component at runtime via a script and via the Add Component inspector menu. Adding the component via inspector menu works fine, but adding it by script does not.

    Nevermind, turns out updating to latest release of post-processing stack changed everything and solved the problem
