Re: Gradient Shader - I'm struggling!

Hi Rick,

thank you for taking the time to reply :)

Just a quick question regarding your solution; How do I go about converting a Lerp to a Texture sample?

Kind Regards,

Re: Gradient Shader - I'm struggling!

Perhaps I could use a triplanar method to map the gradients?

I'm trying to avoid having to create the UVS myself.

Cheers

Re: Gradient Shader - I'm struggling!

Hi Rick,

Thank you for responding :)

Apologies, I am a shader noob and learning as I go.

I will try my best to describe what I am trying to do:

1. Create 3 gradients, each using 2 colours. Blend gradient using world Y
2. Apply each of these gradients to geometry depending on world normal ...

Maybe there would be some way to restrain the normal angle in Y?

Kind Regards,

Re: Gradient Shader - I'm struggling!

OK, sorry folks. I didn't realise that there were node examples supplied.

I found the PositionCutOff example and it helped a lot.

Gradient Shader - I'm struggling!

Hey everyone,

I love to play around in amplify shader and I've been trying to learn how to make my own gradient shader.

I've made some progress but I'm stuck on a particular concept:
