Get started with instancing

You can easily use Uranus Instancer in your project and get all the benefits of an automatic hardware instancing solution by simple adding the uranus-instancer.js script to your scene.

The best place to add it is at your Root scene entity. That way it gets enabled before any other entity is initialized in your scene.

Uranus Instancer works with Render and Model (Legacy) components. Some features like Cells and LODs work only with Render components, so where possible use Render components in your project if you plan to use those features.

As soon as the script is added to your project Uranus Instancer will get activated and automatically parse and instance all of your scene models.

Note that a material used on an instanced object can no longer be used to render non instanced models. If that happens visual artifacts will render on your scene. To avoid doing that make sure to use a separate material on non instanced models.
