Package Contents

The LayerFX package contains the following:

• The LayerFX Render Feature, supporting 3 different rendering modes and a wide variety of customization options. Full source code is included, allowing advanced users to inspect, debug, and customize the render feature if needed.
• A custom editor script for the render feature to make configuring LayerFX settings easy and manageable.
• Demo Content including:
  • A preconfigured 2D Renderer set up with LayerFX.
  • 7 sample shaders, set up for easy use with LayerFX, including both an HLSL shader and Shader Graphs.
  • Preconfigured materials for each included shader.
  • A demo scene allowing the user to cycle between effects for demonstration purposes.
  • 3 simple sprites used in the demo scene.
  • 2 scripts used for demo scene functionality.

All demo content is optional and can be safely removed from your project.
