Instancing system that copies files over for use in the Assets directory and can also runs install scripts\r\n\r\n### ⬇️ [Download Latest Version](https://github.com/VRLabs/Instancer/releases/latest)\r\n\r\n### 📦 [Add to VRChat Creator Companion](https://vrlabs.dev/packages?package=dev.vrlabs.instancer)\r\n\r\n\u003c/div\u003e\r\n\r\n---\r\n\r\n## How it works\r\n\r\n* It gets called by a small dummy file included in the package, and when called copies all the files over, and replaces references to old files with references to new files.\r\n* It can also run an install script callback once it's done with this.\r\n\r\n## Install guide\r\n\r\n* It should generally only be installed as a dependency of a VRLabs package\r\n\r\n## How to use\r\n\r\n* Click the `VRLabs/[PackageName]` button in the toolbar and select an output folder to copy to.\r\n\r\n### Instance Any Package\r\n\r\n* You can use the `VRLabs/Instance Any Package` button to instance and rename any package in the Assets folder.\r\n* It will ask you for the package name and the new instance name.\r\n  * Note that it will only rename things that start with the package name, so if you have e.g. controller parameters that start with a different name, they wont be renamed and will clash with the initial package.\r\n  * Note that materials will reference shaders from the original package as shaders are not copied over.\r\n  * Note that big packages might crash your Unity Editor and cancel the renames, so notall packages will work.\r\n\r\n## Contributors\r\n\r\n* [Jelle](https://jellejurre.dev)\r\n\r\n## License\r\n\r\nInstancer is
