Bug Render Pipeline error : the XR layout still contains active passes.

A mistake out of nowhere! HDRP code has not been modified
Appears after loading the scene

 

I found a problem, it's the lack of material on the decal

I load scenes and materials with textures from separate bundles and if the dependent bundles are not loaded and there is no material on the decal, this error occurs

 

Update 9/3/23 - This occurs if I select "gray" scene display filter in prefab view. Not displayed if "hidden" or "normal"

...

I'm getting this as well and I'm not using bundles or decals. I am using URP and shadergraph that use data encoded into a "data" texture and depth / screen textures etc.

Filling my console window when viewing prefabs, shader graphs, etc. Painful / broken ?!

Also suffering from this.
Only occurs with VR and a Reflections asset enabled. I don't have any decals.

 

It got fixed for me when I disabled dynamic resolution bool in camera properties

 

Same for URP and VR when using the Performant outline asset and it's render feature. Gonna try the dynamic resolution bool now

 

Still an issue.

 

2022.3.2f1 LTS. Same Issue!

 

Trying to find where it comes from... so far hard to pin-point.

Tried to reimport all my project in a new Unity Project (copying Assets). Same problem.

 

One weird thing is that
looks like ENABLE_VR && ENABLE_XR_MODULE are defined (when I look at the Source: UniversalRenderPipeline.cs)
Is that normal ?

 

@DriesVrBase
Digging on it, just found out that the HighLight pLus (great outliner asset I use (in replacement of an older one) seems like the pb.
Still exploring
-> Foud something:
If uou diable HighLight plus asset: stop happening
If you disable Opaque Texture in the Rendering Asset the errors from happening,

Wrote the Discord of the devs to understand the problem.

 

Did you find the solution to resolve this issue? My case a bit different but seems has some similarity.
Here is my error log

I also use Kronenct Highlight Plus asset. I tried to reporoduce the issue using ARFoundation Sample project with Hightlight asset used there but it works fine, so it doesn't look like Kronnect asset is a true reason

 

Note: this workaround is for URP, but am hoping this also fixes your HDRP issue

Re: this "filtering the hierarchy with the scene view open causes a bucketload of URP log spam" issue.

I tracked this issue down to this checkbox.


The left hand one causes the issue, the right hand one doesn't.

If I un-tick the [Opaque Texture] checkbox on the left hand one, then it stops getting the issue.

I'll make a repro project and submit a Unity bug about it.

As a workaround to prevent this spam you can use a quality setting with [Opaque Texture] un-ticked when working in the editor.

 

Still an issue when fiddling with APV

 

Hi yes
Using latest Unity (2023.3.10) and latest Kronect HL+
(forgot the details, but pb in unity and small glith in HL+ from what I recall)

 

Thanks for this!

 

EDIT
Nope, that didn't really fix it for me. Yes, the scene is restored to normal, but crashes as soon as I enter play mode. And worse of all, even though I save as soon as I use the search bar, it reverts back to before using the search bar after re-opening Unity so no changes were saved..
I guess I'll continue relying on modifying my values through prefabs while this is being solved?

I'm using 2023.1.2f1

 

This worked for me for an urp project. Ty

The error only appears on a mac sillicon for me.
