Getting startedCompatibility

Compatibility

Verify that your Unity version, render pipeline, and Cinemachine setup are compatible with PBADOF 1.4 before installing or upgrading.

Compatibility overview

HIBIKI entertainment's Physically Based Auto Depth of Field 1.4.0 targets Unity 6 and supports both HDRP and URP.

PBADOF 1.4.0 narrows its supported Unity versions to Unity 6, from 6000.3 through 6000.6. If you use an older Unity version, from 2019.4 through 2022.3 LTS, the legacy 1.3 release remains available but is no longer actively developed.

Render pipeline support

Render pipelineSupportNotes
HDRPFully supportedPrimary development target. All features are available.
URPSupportedWorks best with Bokeh depth-of-field mode. Some debugging resources are more limited than HDRP.
Built-in RPNot supportedOut of scope. No plans exist to add support.

PBADOF 1.4.0 does not support the Built-in Render Pipeline. Use an HDRP or URP project before installing the package.

Cinemachine compatibility

Cinemachine versionSupportNotes
Cinemachine 3 with Unity 6Experimental adapterAvailable through the optional HIBIKI adapter. Lens authority modes and conflict detection are supported.
Cinemachine 2.xNot directly supportedThe adapter targets Cinemachine 3. Legacy versions support Cinemachine 2.x

XR support

XR support is not exhaustively tested across all headsets. If you encounter performance or visual issues in XR, report them through the support channels.

DXR and path tracing

Path tracing is not supported at runtime. PBADOF operates through the standard depth-of-field render pass and does not integrate with DXR path tracing. User should use the unity native depth of field component workflow for this.

HIBIKI Core dependency

PBADOF 1.4.0 ships with HIBIKI Core 1.0.0, which has an independent version lifecycle. The Core package is included automatically and does not require separate installation.
