The first patch of PIDI Planar Reflections is now live!
- Support for Overlay / Stacked cameras in Universal RP
- Improved Reflections-only shader in URP, now with support for depth discard of non-reflection pixels (which makes it work better on Android devices)
- Bug fixes for UI when adding / removing materials to a reflection caster in-editor.
Hi, does it also work with deferred rendering (for the builtin/legacy rendering pipeline)?
Hi there!
Yes, the reflections should show up in deferred without any problems.
EDIT : Please be aware though that due to limitations in the legacy rendering pipeline, the reflections themselves will be rendered using Forward (as Unity automatically switches to Forward when using Oblique Projection Matrices, as those used in mirrors and other similar flat surfaces). If you disable the “Accurate Matrix” setting, the reflections will use deferred mode but some of the objects behind the reflection plane may show up in the reflection. Therefore, it is a matter of adjusting and tweaking to find the best balance 
We hope this helps!

Hi there!
Please contact our support email with all the details and we’ll be happy to help you as soon as the weekend is over. Alternatively, make sure you are using the latest version of the asset, as we have released a few patches that may have addressed this already. Thanks!
A new update is coming very soon, which will add improved support for Cinemachine + PostFX, as well as some other small improvements.
For anyone using CInemachine and noticing a small delay with their reflections, please ensure that our asset (Planar Reflection Renderer and Planar Reflection Caster) are executed AFTER Cinemachine in the ScriptExecutionOrder settings. This should solve it.
Again, the update is coming online soon.

A new update that allows you to select a specific Renderer when working on URP so that your reflections can have custom passes, lower quality rendering features and more has just been released.

Hi,
I’m thinking of buying this asset for URP. However, I want to ask first if it will work with an orthographic camera?
