Make a GameObject compatible with the GPU Resident Drawer

To make a GameObject compatible with the GPU Resident Drawer, check it has the following properties:

  • Has a Mesh Renderer component.
  • In the Mesh Renderer component, Light Probes isn't set to Use Proxy Volume.
  • Uses only static global illumination, not real time global illumination.
  • Uses a shader that supports DOTS instancing. Refer to Supporting DOTS Instancing for more information.
  • Doesn't move position after one camera finishes rendering and before another camera starts rendering.
  • Doesn't use the MaterialPropertyBlock API.
  • Doesn't have a script that uses a per-instance callback, for example OnRenderObject.
