VFX Template Gallery

THE VFX Template Gallery enables picking a starting point upon creating a new VFX Graph or adding a new system in the VFX Graph window. It enables creating pre-configurations in project to kickstart editing.

Templates are organized in a window, and categorized, with a thumbnail preview and a description.

Usage

The template gallery can be accessed in two ways:

• For VFX Graph Asset creation, use the Visual Effect/Visual Effect Graph (from Template) in the Create Asset menu. Select a template, then set the name of the VFX Graph Asset. At the bottom of thewindow, you have an option to create and add a game object in the scene directly upon asset creation.

• For adding a new system, use the T key shortcut in the Graph Window, or the menu entry in the VFX Extension Menu.

Creating Templates

In order to create your new templates, please create a Visual Effect Graph Template asset from the same menu as VFX Graph asset creation. In the inspector, you can also also take screenshots from the scene view using the menu in the inspector header (Useful for making your template screenshots)
