Unity Compatibility
Minimum Unity: 2019.3 (0b4)
Package Dependencies
✨ Features
- Added shader function `GetMainLightShadowParams`. This returns a half4 for the main light that packs shadow strength in x component and shadow soft property in y component.
- Added shader function `GetAdditionalLightShadowParams`. This returns a half4 for an additional light that packs shadow strength in x component and shadow soft property in y component.
- Added a `Debug Level` option to the Render Pipeline Asset. With this, you can control the amount of debug information generated by the render pipeline.
- Added ability to set the `ScriptableRenderer` that the Camera renders with via C# using `UniversalAdditionalCameraData.SerRenderer(int index)`. This maps to the **Renderer List** on the Render Pipeline Asset.
- Added shadow support for the 2D Renderer.
- Added ShadowCaster2D, and CompositeShadowCaster2D components.
- Added shadow intensity and shadow volume intensity properties to Light2D.
- Added new Gizmos for Lights.
- Added CinemachineUniversalPixelPerfect, a Cinemachine Virtual Camera Extension that solves some compatibility issues between Cinemachine and Pixel Perfect Camera.
- Added an option that disables the depth/stencil buffer for the 2D Renderer.
- Added manipulation handles for the inner cone angle for spot lights.
- Added documentation for the built-in post-processing solution and Volumes framework (and removed incorrect mention of the PPv2 package).
📈 Improvements
- Increased visible lights limit for the forward renderer. It now supports 256 visible lights except in mobile platforms. Mobile platforms support 32 visible lights.
- Increased per-object lights limit for the forward renderer. It now supports 8 per-object lights in all platforms except GLES2. GLES2 supports 4 per-object lights.
- The Sprite-Lit-Default shader and the Sprite Lit Shader Graph shaders now use the vertex tangents for tangent space calculations.
- Temporary render textures for cameras rendering to render textures now use the same format and multisampling configuration as camera's target texture.
- All platforms now use R11G11B10\_UFloat format for HDR render textures if supported.
- There is now a list of `ScriptableRendererData` on the Render Pipeline Asset as opposed to a renderer type. These are available to all Cameras and are included in builds.
- The renderer override on the Camera is now an enum that maps to the list of `ScriptableRendererData` on the Render Pipeline Asset.
- Pixel Perfect Camera now allows rendering to a render texture.
- Light2D GameObjects that you've created now have a default position with z equal to 0.
- Documentation: Changed the "Getting Started" section into "Install and Configure". Re-arranged the Table of Content.
