# Render Pipeline Converter
|
|
|
|
The **Render Pipeline Converter** converts assets made for a Built-in Render Pipeline project to assets compatible with URP.
|
|
|
|
> **NOTE:** The conversion process makes irreversible changes to the project. Back up your project before the conversion.
|
|
|
|
## How to use the Render Pipeline Converter
|
|
|
|
To convert project assets:
|
|
|
|
1. Select **Window** > **Rendering** > **Render Pipeline Converter**. Unity opens the Render Pipeline Converter window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Select the conversion type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Depending on the conversion type, the dialog shows the available converters. Select or clear the check boxes next to converter names to enable or disable the converters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the list of available converters, see the section [Converters](#converters).
|
|
|
|
4. Click **Initialize Converters**. The Render Pipeline Converter preprocesses the assets in the project and shows the list of elements to convert. Select or clear check boxes next to assets to include or exclude them from the conversion process.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Yellow icon**: a yellow icon next to an element indicates that a user action might be required to run the conversion. Hover the mouse pointer over the icon to see the description of the issue.
|
|
|
|
5. Click **Convert Assets** to start the conversion process.
|
|
|
|
> **NOTE:** The conversion process makes irreversible changes to the project. Back up your project before the conversion.
|
|
|
|
When the converter finishes processing all the selected elements, it shows the status of each element in the window.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Green check mark**: the conversion went without issues.
|
|
|
|
**Red icon**: the conversion failed.
|
|
|
|
6. With the converter window open, inspect the elements with the warnings. After reviewing the converted project, close the Render Pipeline Converter window.

Available converters:
|
|
|
|
* **Rendering Settings**

This converter converts the pre-built read-only Materials that come with a Unity project. This converter indexes the project and creates the temporary `.index` file. This might take a significant time.
