    I've posted this same issue on the Github repository, but I'll repost it here for the lazy:

    I'm getting a serious headache from trying to create a new Render Pipeline Asset. According to the instructions on both the forum thread and the blog post about the LWRP, you can make a new Asset via:

    Asset -> Create -> Render Pipeline -> Lightweight -> Pipeline Asset

    Or, you can upgrade existing materials via:

    Edit -> Render Pipeline -> Upgrade -> Lightweight

    Unfortunately, I see neither of these menu items and I'm now quite frustrated. The LWRP was the main reason for me to update to 2018.1 and now it won't even work. The only ticket I see which has a similar complaint is #1203. Yet, even after removing any errors in my project I still can't see these menu items.

    Silly me... I solved the issue by importing the Render Pipeline packages via the Package Manager under Window -> Package Manager
