[Released] Lux URP Essentials

Yea I still use the legacy xr because the new framework is giving me trouble. After experimenting a bit i noticed ghosting on the left eye as well so it seems like it could be rendering to the left eye twice. Might try on a different unity version and see if that has an effect.

 

i tested it using legacy xr, oculus rift, unity 2019.3.1f1 and latest Lux UPR Essentials:
Water looks fine on both eyes if single pass instancing is enabled. Both in the game view as well as in the rift.
maybe you have forgotten to enable instancing on the material?

 

So the problem seems to be with unity terrain. As soon as I converted my unity terrain to a mesh the problem went away. I tried using unity terrain for the grass and tress but that still caused ghosting in the left eye.

 

ah, ok. have you checked the Lux URP terrain shader already? i remember doing some fixes for single pass vr a few month ago.

 

I have problem with this shadow, and I don't know what causing it ?

 

have you updated recently? URP 7.2 changed the way shadows are sampled. make sure you have the latest version of Lux URP Essentials as well.

 

Right. Thank you.

 

you are welcome.

 

Is there any way to have decals only project on specific layers? I dont want to have to put the "M Basic Lit Stencilwrite Dont Receive Decals" Material on everything in my game...

 

please have a look into the provided demo: you can use the draw order as well.
unity's layers in URP are cpu only afaik – used for culling and lighting.

Hi I've just updated to URP 7.2.1 and also tried 7.3.1 using unity 2019.3.2
It's seems like there's a bug the river doesn't get animated in GameView but does work in scene view and if I get back to URP 7.1.8 the issue disappear
Can you check please?

 

it works totally fine for me in unity 2019.3.1f1 using URP 7.2.1.

 

What about 2019.3.2f1 and newer ?

 

sorry, but i can't check any single version. but i am not aware about any major changes in URP > 7.2.1.

 

Is there known issue with Shadow Cascades? Enabling them seems to cause massive shadow flickering. Tested on 2019.3.2f1 on the "Grass Displacement RenderFeature Demo".

There is one or two other threads

 

Yeah I understand

 

you have to make sure you are on latest:

Lux URP/Transmission And Lux URP/Clear Coat

 

thanks, i will look into this.

 

compiles fine for me?!
but actually the shader code contained some old keywords.
that will b fixed in 1.44.

 

I use Unity2019.3.7f1,urp 7.18

 

you need at least URP 7.2. as 7.2. is the version which completely changed the shadow sampling.

 

Hi devs, i use lux lwrp hair shader, and have some questions.
Im pretty new in this and i cant understand what is wrong. My hair looks grainy and transparent that i can see character head through it. And i cant understand how to create this maps with 2 components(like Shift, Occlusion).

 

i guess this is alpha to coverage. try to deactivate it and look if this enhanced the hair.

 

Can i mail you or smth? to keep thread clear, if we solve this i put solution here after.
p.s if i use alpha cutoff its become like previous variant

 

you can pm me.

 

I think there are some problems with the new version of URP 7.3.1

 

which kind of problems?

 

Do we have a wet shader for URP in essentials yet ?

Stuff like puddles on roads or greesy oily shiny garrage floor services

 

Hi,
Just bought the asset specifically for the water and love it!
There's just a param missing from the water we're currently using. Would it be possible to adjust the foam color independently from the texture? We're using a single texture but with different coloration across the materials.

 

thanks.

it should be straight forward adding it yourself. i am super short on time, sorry.

 

wetness currently is not covered...

 

is there a shader thats just like the regular lit shader but with built in support for crossfading LODs ?

 

Hey lars,

I have a question regarding the dynamic grass displacement as well as the grass and foliage shader, could the shaders and grass displacement be used in VSP, as in with instanced indirect rendering? and also, would it be possible to create a stepped-on grass effect with the grass displacement or is it only for wind?

 

i haven't checked this but it should be possible if you make the shaders support instanced indirect rendering. vsp should offer some code examples...

it is not for wind. it is for stepped-on grass

 

Great! I look forward into implementing some of your shaders in my project. Thanks!

 

Can do this error any harm ?

Unity 2013.3, URP 7.3.1

 

When building WebGL my terrain is invisible. I looked through the topic a bit, if it was solved and I missed it, sorry for that!

Thing is I am instantiating it in the scene, its not there originally. If I put it in the scene hierarchy beforehand and then instantiate, its visible (both of them). But seems like material didn't load or is missing something if I dont put it there first.

Is there a fix other than actually putting the terrain in the scene first?

 

I am using 2018.4 Unity and LWRP; the default project. I get many errors when importing. I am totally new to render pipelines and post processing; can I be given some direction? I tried looking for a way to 'import only LWRP and not URP' but it wasn't obvious.

If LWRP is only available in 1.38, can I get that package version to import? Thanks

 

mots likely the asset store delivered the wrong version to you.
latest lux urp essentials need unity 2019.3+ and URP 7.2+
you may try to clear your unity asset store download cache, open unity 2018.3. and reimport it.
this should give you the latest LWRP version.

 

oh, this is not related to the shaders but how unity strips of materials i guess.
you may add the related shaders to the "always included" ones.

 

Hi,

I cleared the asset folder for 'forst' in cache, then I downloaded and imported from 2018.3.7f1 this time and there is 115 errors, but the import says manual for 1.38 is there:


I go into 2018.4.21f1 and it does not ask for an update; so it's downloading the latest no matter what. How can I get the compatible version?

 

i don't know. but from the first error message: lwrp is unknow?
2018.3 or .4 should definitely use lwrp instead of urp.
so waht version do you actually use?

 

Hi, it doesn't sound like you can help me utilize this asset. I would suggest removing 'LWRP' from the title of your asset, or please demonstrate it can work with LWRP from scratch and how you did it so I can replicate your steps.

 

pretty rude tone!
anyway: which version of lwrp do you use?

 

Hey, sorry, I just realized you never claimed to support 2018 LTS on the product page. This is my first time using any 3D aspects of an engine so I didn't know what to look for.

I have 4.1.0 and the max I can upgrade to is 4.10 in the package manager for LWRP.

 

Hi,

I changed my version because I wanted one that was compatible with all my assets (including yours), to 2019.2.0f1 with the 6.9.1 LWRP version. EDIT: This had some initial errors but they disappeared later. I'll bring up any if they re-appear.

 

Please fix this. Grass Displacement Render Feature cause weird shadow on single pass. (URP 7.3.1, Unity 2019.3.11f1) This happen as well on single pass instanced but the result is different. It effect every shadows as long as this feature is enabled.

 

sorry, but i think this is out of my scope. grass displacement does not work with vr right now.
