#Plugin Installation

This guide steps you through setting up the Beam plugin in your game engine of choice.

#Prerequisites

Beam requires the latest GLTFast plugin for Unity to load 3D objects. It is recommended to use the LTS version of Unity 2021 for your project.

The easiest way to install Beam is by adding it as a Git URL in the Unity Package Manager.

Go to Window > Package Manager, and click the + button in the top left.

Copy the following URL into the Unity Package Manager:

https://github.com/Beam-3D/beam-unity-plugin.git

That's it! There should now be a Beam menu item on the tool bar.
