1. Create an empty project in Unity
Create a new project at the start page (New -> Create project
).
2. Import UniVRM package into the created project
Download the latest unitypackage (UniVRM-0.XX) from UniVRM/releases and import it into the current project (Assets -> Import Package -> Custom Package
). The path of imported files is../Assets/VRM
. It is recommended to delete existing VRM folder included VRM in advance before package import.

is selected.
