Creating a Foliage Shader in Unity URP! Grass, Trees, Flowers, Hedges and More | Game Dev Tutorial Ned Makes Games 2021-10-15 | ๐ Download Core to create games for FREE at bit.ly/Core-NedMakesGamesโ๏ธ 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.๐ If you prefer reading, check out the written version of this tutorial here:โบ nedmakesgames.medium.com/creating-a-foliage-shader-in-unity-urp-shader-graph-5854bf8dc4c2โ๏ธ Text-only shader version coming soon!๐Previous videos:โบ Custom lighting in the shader graph: youtu.be/GQyCPaThQnAโบ Intro to culling and double sided rendering: youtu.be/3WWKHt92XKQโบ Creating a grass mesh with a compute shader: youtu.be/6SFTcDNqwaA๐ Interactive lighting math explorer:โบ nedmakesgames.itch.io/lighting-explorer๐ Subscribe for weekly game development videos!โบ youtube.com/c/nedmakesgames?sub_confirmation=1๐ Join my Patreon to watch videos early, download all project files, vote on future topics, and more!

Mastering Tessellation Shaders in Unity! Easy LoD, Curved Triangles, Height Maps | Game Dev Tutorial Ned Makes Games 2021-12-01 | โ๏ธ Tutorial tested in Unity URP 2020.3, 2021.3Hi! Tessellation shaders are advanced shaders which can subdivide triangles in a mesh, creating new vertices. You can move these around for a variety of cool effects! This tutorial aims to give you a deep understanding of tessellation shaders in Unity by first explaining how to write your own and then showcasing several algorithms which use them. Some effects include advance culling, dynamic level of detail, curved triangles, smoothed silhouettes, height map rendering, and procedural meshes.๐ If you prefer reading, check out the written version of this tutorial here:โบ nedmakesgames.medium.com/mastering-tessellation-shaders-and-their-many-uses-in-unity-9caeb760150e๐ Subscribe for weekly game development videos!โบ youtube.com/c/nedmakesgames?sub_confirmation=1๐ Join my Patreon to watch videos early, download all project files, vote on future topics, and more!
