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.

Technical details

Compatibility

URP Compatible.

Tested on Windows, Android, iOS and VR(standalone Quest 3S).

On Meta Quest the most we got without lag is around 300-500k points, while on mobile it’s a bit more. On Windows, sky is the limit (based on your GPU).

Tested on Unity 6000.0.37f1, Visual Effect Graph 17.0.3


Warning

It should work fine for most .ply files, but, based on your export, it might have cases I didn’t consider and crash on import.

In case you need updates, changes, or solving compatibility issues feel free to contact me. I am open to extending and fix the project if I have the know-how.
