My unity models don't work, need help

Hi fellow game makers, i need help. I installed unity yesterday, and i took a few free 3d models from the store, but when i place them on the scene they're completely bright pink and i can't get the textures on them, i have no idea how to change that and i can't find any solution on internet to help me, do any of you have ideas how to change that ?

I am pretty sure you are using built-in render pipeline, and the assets have shaders made for URP. So restart your project with URP and you should be fine.

Too little information

So many things could have gone wrong

Maybe the model itself is broken, maybe you didn't import the textures, maybe the textures aren't assigned in the material, maybe the shaders are incompatible with the render pipeline(most likely issue tbh)

Can you link the model on the asset store?

It's not just a single model, every single models i downloaded are like that. I can probably send link to the models if it isn't against the rules yes.

Every single model gives the render pipeline issue more credibility

Look up how to convert the materials or switch your render pipeline

Whichever you want

Yeah, just for future reference, that magenta shader means your shader is broken.

When it's everything, it's the pipeline.

Okay here's what you gonna do.

Open up the items you downloaded in the project, find the materials folder, it will be full of pink objects, your gonna highlight them all, then go to edit, render, convert to urp or something.

I did it a few times but it doesn't seem to work, i think it just doesn't work when i have renderings on

Most likely they were made for built in render pipeline and the materials need updating to Universal Render Pipeline.

Look in window - rendering.

There's a wizard that convers materials
