Recreating the unity standard shader heightmap

I'm struggling to recreate the heightmap functionality of the unity standard shader. The parallax map example produces significantly different results even when using the same textures.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :D

P.S. I know that the standard shader looks worse in the example; I still want to recreate it.

Greetings,

No problem, we understand.

You'll have to remove 2 steps in order to replicate the basic height effect.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for replying! :D
I tried that and it still seems pretty different.

Any ideas?

Unfortunately, I believe that you'll only be able to approximate the effect using our POM node's technique.

If you require a 1:1 copy of the effect, which is possible to achieve through ASE, I recommend that you download Unity's built-in shaders in order to examine their own Standard Roughness shader, and ultimately try to replicate it in our editor.

Please let me know if you have any further questions, thanks!
