Installation
After importing Tidal into your project, a guided setup process will help ensure your project and URP configuration are compatible. This process is designed to catch common issues early and provide one-click fixes where possible.
Welcome Window
When Tidal is first imported, a welcome window will automatically appear. This window provides quick access to documentation, demo scenes, and validation tools.
If the welcome window is closed, it can be reopened at any time from:
Window → Tidal → Welcome
Project & URP Settings
Tidal relies on several Unity and URP features to function correctly, including compute shaders, depth textures, and specific render pipeline settings.
Rather than requiring manual setup, Tidal provides a validation system that checks these settings automatically.
Validation Window
If required settings are missing or misconfigured, you will be prompted to open the Tidal Validation window. This window lists all detected issues along with their severity and recommended actions.
Each fixable issue includes a Fix button that applies the required change automatically. Non-fixable warnings are informational.
