Re: Expose parameters to change UV set

Ah, that seems like it'll work for now. It'd be nice to be able change that as a property, but this will probably be a good workaround for now at least. Thank you for this!

Expose parameters to change UV set

Is there a way to expose the UV set parameters so they can be swapped in the material? I know they can be changed all over the place within the editor, but I haven't seen a way to expose that the way you can with a lot of other things.

Re: Easy way to "fade" a map input?

Thank you! Time to reconfigure some shaders and use the One Minus in there. Very useful!

Re: Easy way to "fade" a map input?

This makes a lot of sense! See, I knew it was something relatively simple and I just wasn't thinking of it in the right way. Thanks so much, I'm going to try this on my main shader as soon as Unity finishes opening.

The Snow Accumulation shader is actually one I keep finding myself going back to ...

Re: Easy way to "fade" a map input?

In short, I have 4 Substance sample inputs that Lerp together using a packed mask that contains a black and white mask each on RGB and a metallic mask on A. Metallic amount is driven by a multiply and a float, Smoothness is its own single float, and each Albedo map ...

Easy way to "fade" a map input?

I'm trying to create a shader that has a grunge node that can be faded on and off on top of a texture, but I haven't found a way to really do that. I'm using packed materials, so I'd have my albedo, normal, and a packed texture containing AO, metallic, and gloss. On top of that I want a global dirt ...

Re: Register index exceeded for texture samplers

I hadn't thought of packing masks per channel like that, actually! I'm already doing that with metallic, gloss, and AO for other shaders I've built. This definitely would give me more flexibility with the amount of masks being used, since in theory I can get 4 masks out of a single texture.

It's ...

Register index exceeded for texture samplers

I'm creating a shader that uses LERPs and masks to add multiple textures to objects and I keep running into the "maximum ps_4_0 sampler register index (16) exceeded)" error because there's too many texture inputs going on. To pare down on those, I want to create an option to toggle between any of ...

Re: Function not saving?

I feel ridiculous right now! Perforce checked my file back in while I was working, that's why it wasn't saving! Oh my gosh. It's working perfectly fine now, but thank you so much for the fast reply!

Though as long as you're here, could you answer my second question about creating comment frames? I ...
