Visual Effect Project Settings

Visual Effect Graph Project Settings is a section in Unity Project Settings Window. You can access these settings in Edit > Project Settings > VFX.

Properties:

Name	Description
Current Scriptable Render Pipeline	Displays the current Render Pipeline Asset that Unity uses to compile VFX Graph shaders.
Fixed Time Step	Sets the delay before simulation steps for any effect you configure in Fixed Delta Time Simulation.
Max Delta Time	Sets the maximum Fixed Time Step allowed for simulation.
Max Scrub Time	Sets the maximum amount of time you can skip when you enable Scrubbing in the Timeline.
Max Capacity	Sets the maximum allocation count allowed by a system. Unity skips any system that requests an allocation count above this value.
Indirect Shader	Sets the master compute Shader used for Indirect Calls. Unity sets this value automatically.
Copy Buffer Shader	Sets the compute Shader used for Compute Buffer Copy. Unity sets this value automatically.
Sort Shader	Sets the compute Shader used for Particle Sorting. Unity sets this value automatically.
Strip Update Shader	Sets the compute Shader used for Particle Strips update. Unity sets this value automatically.
Runtime Resources	Determines which runtime resources that VFX uses are available in runtime. For example, the SDF Bake Tool. Unity sets this value automatically.
Batch Empty Lifetime	Keeps an empty batch for a specified number of frames after deleting its last instance, allowing the creation of new instances. If no instances are created within this timeframe, the empty batch gets deleted.

Note: Fixed Delta time works in asynchronous update with deltaTime = N * FixedTimeStep (with deltaTime = min(deltaTime , MaxDeltaTime)). N is determined by the current framerate. In this mode, deltaTime can equal 0 at certain frames.
