1. Open package manager
2. Install the Visual Effects Graph package

Expected result: No Warnings in the console

  1. Resolution Note (fix version 2023.3.0b8):

    The warnings about the buffer count on GLES3 will still be present, as VFX Graph does not officially support GLES3.

    These warnings started showing for me after updating from 2022.2.3 to 2022.3.11
