Universal RP Missing from Package Manager?

Hi, I’m trying to follow some upgrade guides but I can’t seem to get past the 2nd main step. I do not see Universal RP anywhere on the list after completing step 1.

I am currently using Unity 2019.2.11f1

Here are the steps
https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.render-pipelines.universal@7.1/manual/InstallURPIntoAProject.html

To install URP into an existing Project:

  • In Unity, open your Project. In the top navigation bar, select Window &gt: Package Manager to open the Package Manager window. Select the All tab. This tab displays the list of available packages for the version of Unity that you are currently running.
  • Select Universal RP from the list of packages. In the top right corner of the window, select Install. This installs URP directly into your Project.

Hi @InitusInteractive ,

Sorry, Universal RP is only available starting at 2019.3.0b4, package version is 7.1.2. That’s why you can’t see it at step 2.

Regards,
EmmanuelH

Hey there. Could you please provide us with your Editor.log so we can look into this in more detail?

I am having the same issue as above.
I checked the Log Files and it said:

Edit: I forgot to mention that in every attempt to do this I used latest versions, not the 2018 ones.

Edit Edit: Okay so I figured it out. For some reason the Unity Hub kept launching in 2018 versions instead of latest. To fix this I just pressed the down arrow next to new and selected the 2020 one.
Hope this helps anyone else with the same problem.

Nudge.

Having the same issue. Can’t find “Universal RP” in my Package Manager. Using Unity 2021.2.7f1.

However, I do see “Render Pipeline-Universal” but this is giving me an error, it’s not working as URP should.

Hi @amxxvi ,

I confirmed that in that version of the Editor, version 12.1.2 of the package com.unity.render-pipelines.universal should be visible as Universal RP, not Render Pipeline-Universal. I’m not sure why you wouldn’t see Universal RP in the Package Manager window. You can try adding it by name (see this Unity Manual page) and type in com.unity.render-pipelines.universal. (Make sure there’s no space before or after the name before clicking Add.) You might need to specify 12.1.2 as the version as well if it doesn’t work with the name alone.

I fixed this by changing the packages to unity registry in the packages menu. Then I was able to search for Universal Rp.
