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

The asset is designed and verified to work with built-in and URP. Although support for HDRP is not explicitly advertised, most of the asset features actually work with HDRP as well.

Some prefabs used in the demo scenes use built-in materials so you need to use the pipeline converter to make them render properly in URP or HDRP.
