Quick Start — First reflections in 5 minutes
Follow these steps to see Shiny SSR 2 reflections in your project. No scripting required.
Step 1 — Import the package
Open Window > Package Manager, locate Shiny SSR 2 in My Assets and click Import. If you downloaded the .unitypackage manually, double-click it and import all files.
Step 2 — Add the Renderer Feature (URP only)
Select your URP Renderer Data asset (usually in Settings/). In the Inspector, click Add Renderer Feature > Shiny SSRR.
Tip: If unsure which Renderer Data is active, go to Edit > Project Settings > Graphics, open the Pipeline asset, and check the Renderer List.
For Built-in pipeline, skip this step — you will add the component directly to the camera in Step 3.
Step 3a — Built-in: Add ShinySSRR to the camera
Select your Main Camera and click Add Component > Shiny SSRR. Reflections will appear immediately in Deferred mode. In Forward mode, also add a Reflections script to objects that should receive reflections.
Step 3b — URP: Create a Volume with Shiny SSRR
In your scene hierarchy, right-click and choose Volume > Global Volume. In the Volume component, click Add Override > Kronnect > Shiny Screen Space Raytraced Reflections.
Step 4 — Tweak initial settings
Start with these beginner-friendly settings:
- Sample Count — set to
32–64for a good quality/performance balance. - Max Ray Length — set to
50for most indoor scenes. - Intensity — keep at
1.0and adjust after visual inspection. - Fresnel — set to
0.8for realistic angle-based attenuation. - Jitter — set to
0.3to reduce banding with minimal noise.
Step 5 — Verify
Enter Play Mode and check the Game view. You should see reflections on smooth surfaces. If nothing appears:
- Confirm materials have a Smoothness value above 0.3.
- In Forward mode, ensure the
Reflectionsscript is attached to target objects. - In URP, verify the Shiny SSRR Renderer Feature is added to the active URP Renderer.
Next Steps
- Reflections & Settings — understand all parameters in detail.
- Performance Tips — optimize for your target platform.
- Scripting Support — control reflections from code.
