Graphics programming - Unity 3D shaders - 004.

In the previous tutorial number 002, I presented how a shader can be implemented using an HLSL type file that provides two output variables: _in1 and _in2. Theoretically, they should be renamed with _out because they are output. Today I will show you how to use the color variable as an input in the custom node. Here is the source code with a compound math function on a vector with size 4 for Color added in Shader Graph.

Let's see the source code :

#pragma shader_feature_local OutCode001

float DataInput_float( in float4  _in11, in float x , out float4 _out11)
{
    //_in11 = _input11Float;
    _in11 = _in11;
    _out11 = sin(_in11) * ( x * 1000 );
    return  _out11;
}

This is how to link the _in11, x and _out11 to Inputs and Outputs lists. You can see the function is used like DataInput and not DataInput_float in the GUI.

Graphics programming - Unity 3D shaders - 003.

This is a new default example like the one from the previous tutorial, it is a little more complex, but you can see the differences.

I commented the default source code generated by Unity 3D and added a default source code for coloring with RGB color range.

// Upgrade NOTE: replaced 'mul(UNITY_MATRIX_MVP,*)' with 'UnityObjectToClipPos(*)'

//Shader "Custom/CG_RGB"
//{
//    Properties
//    {
//        _Color ("Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
//        _MainTex ("Albedo (RGB)", 2D) = "white" {}
//        _Glossiness ("Smoothness", Range(0,1)) = 0.5
//        _Metallic ("Metallic", Range(0,1)) = 0.0
//    }
//    SubShader
//    {
//        Tags { "RenderType"="Opaque" }
//        LOD 200

//        CGPROGRAM
//        // Physically based Standard lighting model, and enable shadows on all light types
//        #pragma surface surf Standard fullforwardshadows

//        // Use shader model 3.0 target, to get nicer looking lighting
//        #pragma target 3.0

//        sampler2D _MainTex;

//        struct Input
//        {
//            float2 uv_MainTex;
//        };

//        half _Glossiness;
//        half _Metallic;
//        fixed4 _Color;

//        // Add instancing support for this shader. You need to check 'Enable Instancing' on materials that use the shader.
//        // See https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/GPUInstancing.html for more information about instancing.
//        // #pragma instancing_options assumeuniformscaling
//        UNITY_INSTANCING_BUFFER_START(Props)
//            // put more per-instance properties here
//        UNITY_INSTANCING_BUFFER_END(Props)

//        void surf (Input IN, inout SurfaceOutputStandard o)
//        {
//            // Albedo comes from a texture tinted by color
//            fixed4 c = tex2D (_MainTex, IN.uv_MainTex) * _Color;
//            o.Albedo = c.rgb;
//            // Metallic and smoothness come from slider variables
//            o.Metallic = _Metallic;
//            o.Smoothness = _Glossiness;
//            o.Alpha = c.a;
//        }
//        ENDCG
//    }
//    FallBack "Diffuse"
//}
Shader "Cg shader for RGB cube" { 
   SubShader { 
      Pass { 
         CGPROGRAM 
 
         #pragma vertex vert // vert function is the vertex shader 
         #pragma fragment frag // frag function is the fragment shader
 
         void vert(float4 vertexPos : POSITION,
            out float4 pos : SV_POSITION,
            out float4 col : TEXCOORD0)  
         {
            pos =  UnityObjectToClipPos(vertexPos);
            col = vertexPos + float4(0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.0);
            return;
         }
 
         float4 frag(float4 pos : SV_POSITION, 
            float4 col : TEXCOORD0) : COLOR 
         {
            return col; 
         }
 
         ENDCG 
      }
   }
}

Here is the result attached to the same material from the previous tutorial, but with this default shader.

Unity 3D : Prefabs in Unity 3D.

You can read documenatation on this official website.

In short, a prefab is a way to package data so that it can be more easily and drag-and-drop into the folder called Prefabs.

Since there is more than one prefab in the construction and dynamics of the game, two creation modes are defined: one original and another that allows us to make changes to the original.

Use the drag and drop operation twice with an object created in the Hierarchy area and you will get a dialog that will allow you to differentiate.

After choosing how you want to use it, the prefab can be used with drag and drop and assigned to the game environment in the Hierarchy panel.

If you want to change it, you will have to right-click and you will see a Prefab menu with submenus for allowed operations.

These are basically what you need to know about prefab.

Graphics programming - Unity 3D shaders - 002.

In this article - tutorial I will show you how to use the most simple HLSL source code with Unity 3D.

You need to install the Shader Graph package in Unity 3D.

Create a basic shader with Create - Shader Graph - BuildIn - Unlit Shader.

Open this shader in the Shader Graph package and add a Custom Function.

This allows you to create variables and use an HLSL file.

You can see how I create this in this image:

Create a file and name this file with this name: MyNewCode.hlsl then add this in the Shader Graph package like in that image.

For each variable is need to use the Outputs to add these two variables: _in1 and _in2.

In the HLSL file, you can add this simple source code.

// file for custom node shader function
static float _input1Float = 1;
static float _input2Float = 1;
void Data_float(out float _in1, out float _in2)
{
    _in1 = _input1Float;
    _in2 = _input2Float;
  
}

Now, you have a custom node shader in your Shader Graph package project with an HLSL source code.

Graphics programming - Unity 3D shaders - 001.

If you have studied shader theory and computational graphics in the past, then the only impediment would be the Unity 3D interface.

For a shader that uses the CG programming language, then you can use this type of shader in Unity 3D software.

You can create with right-click on Unity 3D interface.

This will create a shader file, you can open and see the default shader.

Let's make a CG shader with one color.

Remove all content from this file and add this source code:

Shader "Cg basic shader" { // this is the name of the shader 
   SubShader { // Unity chooses this like an subshader and works with your GPU specifications
      Pass { // passes in higher-level shader/material systems GLSL/Cg/HLSL is a way of setting up states necessary for multi-pass rendering, in this case is one pass
         CGPROGRAM // start programming with Unity's Cg

         #pragma vertex vert 
            // this specifies the vert function as the vertex shader 
         #pragma fragment frag
            // this specifies the frag function as the fragment shader
		// define vert for vertex shader 	
         float4 vert(float4 vertexPos : POSITION) : SV_POSITION 
            // vertex shader 
         {
            return UnityObjectToClipPos(vertexPos);
              // this line transforms the vertex input parameter 
              // and returns it as a nameless vertex output parameter 
              // (with semantic SV_POSITION)
         }
		 // define frag for fragment shader
         float4 frag(void) : COLOR // fragment shader
         {
            return float4(0.0, 1.9, 7.6, 1.0); 
               // this fragment shader returns a nameless fragment
               // output parameter (with semantic COLOR) that is set to
               // opaque red (red = 1, green = 0, blue = 0, alpha = 1)
         }

         ENDCG // ends the part in  programming with Unity's Cg
      }
   }
}

This is a standard shader and if you search on the web you can find more simple shaders.

Add an object to your scene, create a new material, and add to this object, drag the file shader to the material, and will fill with this RGBA color: 0.0, 1.9, 7.6, 1.0.
