Zibra Effects is a multipurpose, no-code toolset designed to simplify VFX creation for VR experiences. Make your virtual worlds immersive with real-time simulation.
Render pipeline compatibility
The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity’s default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.

Additional compatibility information

URP: You need to add respective Render Components for each used effect to your URP Renderer setting and enable Depth buffer.


HDRP: You must set light and reflection probe parameters for liquid to render and light parameter for smoke & fire to render.


Please see User Guide for more details.

Description

📌📌 Unity 6 is not fully supported


Note: when updating Zibra Effects from the Package Manager, please remove the old version before importing the new version (you may need to close the Editor and manually remove files of the old version).

  • Yearly: Annual Zibra Effects access for $120

🦓 Zibra Effects is a multipurpose, no-code toolset designed to simplify VFX creation for VR experiences. Make your virtual worlds more immersive by leveraging real-time simulation and realistic physics.

Powered by custom physics solvers and Artificial Intelligence-based technology for neural object representations, Zibra Effects makes working with interactive effects in VR/AR frameworks easier.


Zibra Effects allows you to create liquid, smoke and fire real-time interactive 3D simulations that can be used on small to medium scale and optimized to be used in VR/AR development.


Our out-of-the-box solution features an intuitive UI and a wide range of features, as well as many visual and physical parameters to customize the look and behavior of liquid, fire, and smoke effects according to your needs.


Zibra Effects real-time simulation can be used to create various VR experiences:


• Enhance environmental aesthetics with realistic, natural-looking VFX

• Easily create water surface, rivers, ponds, waterfalls, lava flows, burning fire, smoke trails, and weather effects, such as clouds, dust, debris, and fog

• Increase interactivity with custom game mechanics based on realistic physics

• Improve environmental storytelling (liquid caverns, flooded cities, etc.)

Technical details

Editor platforms:

Windows

  • Supported Graphic API: DX11, DX12, Vulkan
  • Supported CPU Architectures: x64

macOS

  • Supported APIs: Metal
    • Smoke & Fire requires a device with MTLReadWriteTextureTier2 support. Intel Macs without dedicated GPU will likely not satisfy that. All Apple Silicon macs do satisfy this requirement.
  • Supported CPU Architectures: x64, arm64

Build platforms:

Windows

  • Supported Graphic API: DX11, DX12, Vulkan
  • Supported CPU Architectures: x64

UWP

  • Supported Graphic API: DX11, DX12
  • Supported CPU Architectures: x64

macOS

  • Supported Graphic API: Metal
    • Smoke & Fire requires a device with MTLReadWriteTextureTier2 support. Intel Macs without dedicated GPU will likely not satisfy that. All Apple Silicon macs do satisfy this requirement.
  • Supported CPU Architectures: x64, arm64

iOS

  • Supported Graphic API: Metal
  • Supported CPU Architectures: arm64
  • Supported OS: iOS 12 or later
  • Supported Devices: iPhone 6s or newer (Metal GPU Family Apple3 or higher)
  • Supported Xcode versions: 14.2 or newer
  • iOS Simulator is unsupported
    • You can run iOS build on Apple Silicon instead

Android

  • Supported Graphic APIs: OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan
    • Smoke & Fire doesn’t support OpenGL, only Liquid will work when targeting OpenGL
  • Supported CPU Architectures: armv7, arm64
  • Supported OS: Android 7.0 or later
  • Meta Quest 2 and Pro are supported
    • Smoke & Fire doesn’t support Quest devices, since they lack Single Pass Instanced Stereo Rendering mode, so only Liquid will work on Quest devices.

VR Support:

  • Liquids - Supported only in Unity Render mode
  • Smoke - Supported only in Single Pass Instanced mode, except for the Effect Particles feature

Unity version: 2021.3 or later (the latest patch version is recommended)

Supported Render Pipelines: Built-in RP (BRP), URP, HDRP


📲 Note on Android device support:

We recommend using Vulkan API instead of OpenGL ES to get the best performance. The liquid is meant to be used on modern high-end devices released after 2019.

Check the mobile GPU performance table to see which GPUs and devices are supported.

You can also run the simulation with our Android benchmark demo (apk) to check how it works on your target devices and see the basic stats. We've made our own tests which you can see here.


Note on License validation in Editor:

When using Zibra Effects in Editor, it verifies license on each Editor launch, which requires Internet connection.

If you are not connected to the Internet, you may not be able to use certain features of Zibra Effects in Editor. You can disconnect from the internet after license verification.

Player builds that use Zibra Effects don’t have any license verification and will always

work after build.
