Custom Lighting in Unity URP Shader Graph! Ready for Toony Lights! ✔️ 2021.1 | Game Dev Tutorial Ned Makes Games 2021-08-31 | ✔️ Tested in 2020.3 & 2021.1Do you have a material that doesn't look quite right in Unity's URP lit shader graph? Or would you like to experiment with stylized art styles with the convenience of the shader graph? In this tutorial, I show how to implement custom lighting, allowing you to solve both those problems. Afterwards, you could extend the graphs I show here to make a toon shader or handle difficult materials, like plant foliage, hair, skin, or fabric.📚 If you prefer reading, check out the written version of this tutorial here:► nedmakesgames.medium.com/creating-custom-lighting-in-unitys-shader-graph-with-universal-render-pipeline-5ad442c27276🌞 Interactive lighting math explorer:► nedmakesgames.itch.io/lighting-explorer👋 Subscribe for weekly game development videos!► youtube.com/c/nedmakesgames?sub_confirmation=1👑 Join my Patreon to watch videos early, download all project files, vote on future topics, and more!

Creating a Foliage Shader in Unity URP! Grass, Trees, Flowers, Hedges and More | Game Dev Tutorial Ned Makes Games 2021-10-15 | 🚀 Download Core to create games for FREE at bit.ly/Core-NedMakesGames✔️ Tutorial tested in Unity URP 2020.3 & 2021.3Plants, foliage and vegetation are really challenging to get right! It requires a custom made shader to tackle issues like translucency and wind. In this tutorial, I show how to create a foliage shader in the Unity URP (Universal Render Pipeline) Shader Graph. It supports all light types, shadows, and baked lighting, and includes several strategies for translucency, like separate normals for diffuse lighting and subsurface scattering. I also implement programmable wind animation and show a simple method to reconstruct normals. For grass billboards and tree leaf cards, I also demonstrate how to create double sided materials with normal map support.📚 If you prefer reading, check out the written version of this tutorial here:► nedmakesgames.medium.com/creating-a-foliage-shader-in-unity-urp-shader-graph-5854bf8dc4c2✏️ Text-only shader version coming soon!🌟Previous videos:► Custom lighting in the shader graph: youtu.be/GQyCPaThQnA► Intro to culling and double sided rendering: youtu.be/3WWKHt92XKQ► Creating a grass mesh with a compute shader: youtu.be/6SFTcDNqwaA🌞 Interactive lighting math explorer:► nedmakesgames.itch.io/lighting-explorer👋 Subscribe for weekly game development videos!► youtube.com/c/nedmakesgames?sub_confirmation=1👑 Join my Patreon to watch videos early, download all project files, vote on future topics, and more!

Unity Basics: Triangle Winding, Culling Modes & Double Sided Materials ✔️ 2020.3 | Game Dev Tutorial Ned Makes Games 2021-03-10 | ✔️ Works in 2020.2 ➕ 2020.3Triangle winding direction is a pillar of Unity's rendering system. Triangle points are ordered, and the way they're positioned on the screen, either clockwise or counter-clockwise, determines whether Unity will render them or not. You can change this behaviour my modifying the culling mode with a double-sided material. In this video, I explain how to do so with the default URP lit shaders, a custom code shader, and a URP shader graph.👋 Subscribe for weekly game development videos!► youtube.com/c/nedmakesgames?sub_confirmation=1👑 Join my Patreon for extra influence over topics, early access to videos, and downloadable project files!► patreon.com/nedmakesgames🔗 Check out my website for a searchable list of tutorials!► nedmakesgames.github.io🔴 Twitch ► twitch.tv/nedmakesgames🐦 Twitter ► twitter.com/nedmakesgames🎮 Discord ► discordapp.com/invite/ubxSVBK📸 Instagram ► instagram.com/nedmakesgames👽 Reddit ► reddit.com/u/nedmakesgames🎶 TikTok ► tiktok.com/@nedmakesgames☕ Ko-fi ► ko-fi.com/nedmakesgames💬 Video transcript► docs.google.com/document/d/1Ffl8yGfCMJ4YtgWyaS0vGHb_tzpvsYauXDR8Eqezkjo/edit?usp=sharing📚 Reference scripts & assets► Triangle texture: https://i.imgur.com/v4QWkc5.png► Triangle builder script: gist.github.com/NedMakesGames/accea6d833291bf6f304d3e97258c3cb► Simple shader: gist.github.com/NedMakesGames/89870fa301652676be3b7d631de251bd⏲️ Timestamps:0:00 Intro0:57 Vertex and index buffers1:53 Culling3:24 Double sided materials5:22 Double sided meshes6:02 Wrap up and credits🎖️ Credits and references:• XfrogPlants: Curry Leaf Tree Free 3D model - cgtrader.com/free-3d-models/plant/other/xfrogplants-curry-leaf-tree• freepik: Wrinkled paper texture - freepik.com/premium-vector/wrinkled-paper-texture_711440.htm• James "Nihilore" Opie: music "Motion Blur" - youtube.com/watch?v=eRZbwOpUJwk#GameDev #IndieDev #Unity
