Step 4: Update Materials to URP

1. Pink Materials Issue: After import, materials in your scene might appear pink. This happens if your previous project used the Standard Rendering Pipeline.

2. Convert Materials to URP: Go to realvirtual > RenderPipelines > Switch to Universal Render Pipeline (URP). This action will convert all materials in your project to be compatible with URP.

After following these steps, your project should be fully upgraded to realvirtual.io 6 with URP compatibility, restoring the correct material and scene appearance.
