Sand, Mud, Grass Specified Shader Smart, Advanced Edition

Details & User Guide| Updates

Introduction

This package contains a set of 18 shaders for PBR based shaders made specifically for sand, mud, grass materials. 6 shaders with parallax height features and additional customizable features are designed for mid-high-end build PC, 6 shaders with ambient occlusion and more customizable features are designed for PC/Console, and 6 shaders are designed for mobile game and application development.

Distortion feature has been introduced, where users can individually adjust the texture tiling and offsets of the distortion map, meantime, surface detail will blend seamlessly based on the major/minor UV size thus to enhance the complexity of surface patterns. In addition, wet surface functionality is introduced, where users have full control over the gray level, white/black channels, base color bias, and specular bias based on the wet surface pattern.

High customizable adjustments are introduced as well, including: contrast, brightness, gray-level strength, maximum/minimum channel values (for linear interpolation 1.0 and 0.0), normal bias, ambient occlusion, and parallax height. Users can modify most of the texture input properties in real time.

Varies input functionalities are introduced to each shader for optimizations of the rendering power, and enhancements for the graphic quality.
