## 🎬 [**Enabling the plugin**](https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxiVXg6mPzyh2495Da3torepj_S-9droSn)

## [🎬 **Enabling Virtual Textures for your project**](https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxRViv8BZWSuCGwLm3ZglC6FpWgl8pwdx0)
Virtual Textures are very important to keep the shader complexity of the Instances low.
To use them, you'll need to enable them in your project.
* Open your project and open the Project Settings.
On the top search bar, search for "Enable Runtime Virtual Texture" and tick "Enable Virtual Texture Support". Enable other options if you need them.
{% hint style="info" %}
Virtual Textures for Mobile, at least as of 5.2, is unstable and may crash the build.\
It's not recommended to enable them.
{% endhint %}
When finished, close your project and restart your project.
It'll take a moment to re-open as it'll need to recompile a lot of shaders.
## [🎬 Launching the Interface](https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxPG0w49V4Q0tkR4cychJV4ax2JRELpY2V)
Simply click the new PANORA|make Icon to the top of your UE5 interface.
If everything is set up correctly, this window should pop up !
{% hint style="success" %}
It's **heavily recommended** to dock the Interface to the right of your viewport, as **it was designed to be used vertically to leave more space for it !**
{% endhint %}
