AR Background Renderer Feature Missing in URP

I am trying to run my AR app using the universal render pipeline but I am having issues setting it up.

My unity version is 2019.3.4.

My URP verision is 7.1.8. I have tried other versions but still not getting the option.

After I create a forward renderer and click the plus button to add a renderer feature i dont get an option of
AR background renderer feature. The only option I get is of Renderer Objects.

How to get this option?

Just upgrade your ARFoundation and ARCore/ARKit version to 3.0.1 or above in the package manager. I had the same problem :slight_smile:

You can select a different version of ARFoundation / ARCore XR by clicking the little arrow next to it.

Package manager

You won’t get that option until you install ARFoundation. I just faced this same issue and I noticed I had not installed ARFoundation package. So just go to Window > Package Manager > Install ARFoundation and then you will be able to see the ARBackgroundRendererFeature.

For those like me who at this stage must still work with Unity 2019.4 “LONG TERM SUPPORT”, I am sharing the [172330-manifestjson.zip|172330] that makes things work for me. I am using URP, XR Interaction Toolkit, ARFoundation and ARKit so this is for iOS. I haven’t tested with ARCore but changing the entries for ARKit to ARCore might be enough.
