Lit/Unlit ParticleStrip options not showing up in Visual Effect Graph menus

I’ve noticed on a new computer that I’ve set Unity up on, I don’t see the Lit and Unlit Output ParticleStrip options in the Visual Effect Graph menus. It only shows the ShaderGraph version in the menu. If I do something like bring in the Simple Trail template into the graph, I can then copy an Output ParticleStrip Unlit from it, but it still remains nowhere in the menu.

This is a fresh project using URP, but I’ve also seen it in another project I’m working on that definitely has those options on my other computer.

Seems like there are other nodes missing from the menu. Was just working on another effect and the GPU Event is also missing. Had to copy/paste it from another graph. :confused:

So, GPU Events and Strip Output are flagged as Experimental due to some edges cases and some limitation. Just go to : Preferences>Visual Effect > Experimental Operator/Block.

With this turn on, you should see the full library. An update is coming for GPU Event and instancing that should get them out of the experimental flag. Have a great day.
