Changelog

All notable changes to this package will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[3.1.1] - 2021-03-08

Fixed

  • Fix for broken MSVO on desktop platforms.
  • Fix for compilation issue with BuildTarget error on XboxOne platform.

[3.1.0] - 2021-03-02

Added

  • Support for the PlayStation 5 platform has been added.
  • Support for the XboxSeries platform has been added.

Fixed

  • Fix for issue thrown upon unloading a scene from an AssetBundle (case 1262826)
  • Fix for MSVO when used with dynamic resolution reallocating temporary render targets whenever the dynamic resolution scale was changed which could cause a higher peak VRAM usage and fragmentation (Case 1285605). Temporary targets will now use dynamic scaling as well to solve this. Please note there is a bug in Unity that breaks this fix (case 1285577) To make use of dynamic resolution and MSVO please use Unity 2019.4.19f1, 2020.2.2f1, 2021.1.0a9 or later.
  • Fix for compilation error in the FinalPass shader with GLES2/WebGL1 (case 1311160)
  • Fix for MSVO errors on unsupported Android platforms (case 1316915)

[3.0.3] - 2021-02-19

  • bump version to 3.0.3 to not conflict with unrelease 3.0.2

[3.0.2] - 2020-12-08

  • Fix for a compilation error in the Depth of Field shader on Linux.

[3.0.0] - 2020-10-13

Fixed
