    as I was benchmarking vfx graph vs particlesystem i swapped out the render pipeline and to my surprise it works!
    URP v10 is installed.

    @laurentlavigne You provide more support than Unity. :D

    Btw, why did you mention you got URP installed if you tested with built in? Isn't that mutually exclusive?

    Because the production uses built-in and I'm testing URP to see if there is a tangible benefit.
    It's mutually exclusive in the sense that the renderer can only use one pipeline at a time. In a project you can have as many RP as you want.

    Is it still true ? I mean could we use VFX graph while on built-in ?

    Thanks for the answer, yet it's not very clear as I'm not entirely sure why you mention URP? I tried to import the VFX graph package in a built-in project however nothing seems to appear even though there is no apparent compilation issues.

    Basically it seems that Shader Graph is now backported to Built-in, so I guess as it generates these kind of shaders it should work.

    I tried the package from the page you've linked where you tested Shuriken vs VFX, but the same occurs, shuriken works ofc but nothing happens in the scene/game view in play/editor for the VFX asset.
    Is there something to configure, maybe with the Shader Graph so it targets builtin ?

    PS : juste tested the package on an HDRP project and it works out of the box for the VFX asset.
