Components Reference

TL;DR: Every component shipped with the Content Creation Kit, grouped by what it does. Jump to the section that matches your task, or open a specific page from the sidebar.

The CCK ships with roughly seventy-eight components covering avatar setup, world and prop authoring, rendering, physics zones, IK, networking, video, and combat gameplay. Each page describes the component’s purpose, its inspector fields, and links to related components so you can see what pairs well.

Not sure where to start?

If you are setting up an avatar, world, or prop for the first time, begin with one of the Core components below (CVRAvatar, CVRWorld, or CVRSpawnable). They are required and pull in everything else you need.

CVR GI Material Updater Calls UpdateGIMaterials on the attached Renderer for realtime global illumination on emissive objects.

CVR Skybox Manipulator Customizes the skybox material, mesh, origin, and local transform for a target camera.

CVR Mirror Mirror reflection component with controls for resolution, reflect layers, frame skip, and pixel light culling.

CVR LTCGI Adapter Installs and configures LTCGI (linearly transformed cosines global illumination) in your world.

CVR Blitter Runs Graphics.Blit with optional material overrides, automatic clearing, and random write target bindings.

CVR Blitter Controller Defines a specific execution order for a set of CVR Blitter components.

CVR Line Renderer Helper Helper for LineRenderer components.

CVR Canvas Wrapper Configures interaction distance and collider setup for world-space UI canvases.

CVR Distance LOD Toggles GameObjects on or off based on their distance from the local player.

Physics and Interaction Zones

Volumes that change gravity, apply drag, deal damage, vibrate haptics, or snap objects together.

Physics Influencer Lets an object react to gravity zones and fluid volumes; modifies center of mass, buoyancy, drag, and uprighting.

Gravity Zone Adds shaped gravitational fields that can layer, override, invert, and reorient players inside the volume.

Fluid Volume Defines a fluid-filled zone with stream direction and strength, combined with Physics Influencer for buoyancy.

Force Applicator Applies a constant force along a local vector to a target rigidbody, optionally only while submerged.

CVR Damage Raycaster Raycaster that applies Damage to hit targets.

CVR Haptic Zone Zone with on-enter, on-stay, and on-exit events that drive the CVR Haptic Area Chest.
