URP
Sword Slash Shader Breakdown
A shader applied to a ring mesh that pans a texture along it to create a swipe/slash effect
Writing Shader Code in Universal RP (v2)
Explains how shader code (ShaderLab & HLSL) is written to support the Universal RP
Holofoil Card Shader Breakdown
A shader that replicates the Holographic Foil effects on Trading Cards. Also explains the stencil shader effect on the card window.
Soft Foliage Shader Breakdown
Soft shaded foliage shader that uses alpha clipping with foliage texture and a small amount of vertex displacement to simulate wind. Applied to a mesh consisting of intersecting quads generated from a particle system
Intro to Shader Graph
A detailed introduction on how to use Unity Shader Graph (updated for v12+)! Graph setup, Data types, Understanding Previews, Properties, Keywords, Sub Graphs and more!
Crystal Shader Breakdown
An unlit/glowing crystal shader with a colour gradient based on object space Y position, and refraction via Scene Color node
Fire/Flame Shader Breakdown
A shader which distorts the UVs with noise for sampling a fire texture or shape generated using ellipse nodes
Sprite Glow/Outline Shader Breakdown
A shader which uses a signed distance field stored in the sprite texture's alpha channel to create an outline/glow (and inner-glow) effect, with control over the colour and thickness
Sprite Stencil Overlay Breakdown
An example of using the RenderObjects feature on the Forward Renderer to produce an overlay effect for sprites (not compatible with the 2D renderer)
Dissolve Shader Breakdown
A shader which uses noise and step functions to discard pixels to create a dissolving effect. Also provides examples for dissolving based on height / Y and using view space position as UVs to avoid seams
