## Install from Asset Manager

* Open **Unity → Window → Package Manager → My Assets**.
* Find **Seamless Converter Shader** → **Download** → **Import**.
* You’ll see the `SeamlessConverter/` folder in your project.

## Automatic Render Pipeline Setup

Decal Collider automatically detects your project's active Render Pipeline (Built-in, URP or HDRP) on first import and installs the correct shader variant silently in the background.

No manual installer steps are required.

If you later switch render pipelines, simply reimport the asset to trigger the auto-setup again.

***

## Load the correct Pipeline version

* Go to: `SeamlessConverter/Renderers/`
* Open the folder that matches your project (**Built-in**, **URP**, or **HDRP**).
* **Double-click** the installer/import file inside → **Import**.
* If you switch pipelines later, re-import the matching variant here.\
  \&#xNAN;*Pink (magenta) materials = wrong or missing variant.*

## Make your first material

* **Create → Material** (e.g., `M_SeamlessTest`).
* Set **Shader** to **Seamless Converter Shader**.
* Assign a **non-seamless** texture to **Texture**.
* Turn **Seamless** **On**.
* Quick tuning:
  * **Style:** Texture / Both / Debug
  * **Focus:** smoothness between hex cells
  * **Rotate / Zoom:** per-cell variation to break repetition
  * (Optional) Add **Normal** map and adjust **Strength**.

## Try the demo scenes

Open `SeamlessConverter/Scenes/` → **Plane**, **Triplanar**, **Sphere** to see ready setups.

## Common fixes

* **Magenta materials:** Re-import the right variant from `Renderers/`.
* **URP/HDRP not rendering:** Ensure a valid **Pipeline Asset** is assigned in Project Settings.
