Lack of documentation regarding VFX Ray Tracing support
Steps to reproduce:
- Open the VFX Output settings documentation
- Check if the 'Enable Ray Tracing' option has any listed limitations
- Open the attached project
- Open Test VFX Graph
- Select Output Particle Unlit Mesh
- In the Inspector window, look for the 'Enable Ray Tracing' option
Actual results: The Enable Ray Tracing option is missing, and there's no indicator inside the Editor or the HDRP/VFX Manual as to why that's the case
Expected results: VFX Ray Tracing limitations are listed in the Manual and/or there is an indicator inside the Editor why the option is missing
Reproducible with versions: 6000.0.47f1, 6000.1.0f1, 6000.2.0a9
Can’t test with versions: 2022.3.61f1
Tested on (OS): Windows 11
Notes:
- The only reference for VFX Ray Tracing limitations is the changelog
** The changelog lists that VFX Graph does not support ray tracing with meshes or strips. However, the 'Output Particle Shader Graph Mesh' node has this option inside the Editor
