Breakdowns
Shoreline Shader Breakdown
A few shader techniques I've used in the past for mapping waves crashing into the shore/beach & leaving behind wet sand
Sun Beams / God Rays Shader Breakdown
Using billboarded quads (or particles) to produce a god rays effect
2D Water Shader Breakdown
A water shader intended for 2D, with pixelated highlights, distortion, reflections and simplified shoreline waves/ripples
Ultraviolet Lights & Invisible Ink
Examples for revealing invisible objects (especially decals, such as fingerprints or hidden messages) based on lights, stencils and other masking methods
Book (w/ Turnable Pages) Breakdown
A book with pages that flip/turn via vertex displacement, and selects a portion of a texture containing all pages.
Rain Effects Breakdown
A few rain effects, including particles setup, and shaders for ripples in water/puddles and rain interacting with surfaces
Waterfall Shader Breakdown
A waterfall shader that interacts with a sphere to part the flowing water. Uses a signed distance field and alpha clipping.
Fractured Cube Breakdown
Uses a shader which displaces (scales/rotates) vertices of a prefractured mesh with pivots baked into UV maps
Snowglobe Breakdown
Glass globe shader with background refraction & reflection. Particles are contained inside which inherit Rigidbody movements.
Tentacle Shader Breakdown
A shader that uses vertex displacement to simulate a tentacle grabbing / wrapping around an object
