Stunning thunderstorms for desktop and mobile. Compatible with Built-In RP, SRP, URP, HDRP, and any weather system.
Render pipeline compatibility
The Built-in Render Pipeline is Unity’s default render pipeline. It is a general-purpose render pipeline that has limited options for customization. The Universal Render Pipeline (URP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that is quick and easy to customize, and lets you create optimized graphics across a wide range of platforms. The High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP) is a Scriptable Render Pipeline that lets you create cutting-edge, high-fidelity graphics on high-end platforms.

Additional compatibility information

The included demo scene(import optional) uses the standard shader (from the Built-In Render Pipeline) for the terrain. To make the terrain shader compile in URP or HDRP you need to upgrade the material with Unity's material upgrade tool. (Edit/Render Pipeline/.../Upgrade from Builtin Pipeline/...)

Description

Links: DEMO | MANUAL



THOR Thunderstorm is the fastest, most user friendly, best looking and sounding thunder and lightning system you can get. It integrates into your project by simply dragging a prefab into your scene. It gives you everything between light thunder rumbling to the most apocalyptic thunder and lightning strikes you have ever seen in Unity.



FEATURES:


• High Compatibility (Built-In/SRP/URP/HDRP and third party assets)


• Automatic spawning of lightning


• Spawns randomly, in camera view or both


• Animated Lightning Bolts


• Animated Sheet Lightning


• Lightning Evolution


• Dynamic Spotlight with Shadows (optional)


• 26 High Quality Thunder Samples in 4 Distance Categories


• 3 Background Thunder Loops


• Automatic Pooling


• Zero Garbage Collection


• Blazing fast performance


• Tidy Custom Inspector with Tooltips



Unlike procedurally generated lightning assets, THOR thunderstorm relies on simple shader tricks, clever texturing & modeling, and smart scripting to achieve its blazing fast performance, great looks, and sounds.



THOR Thunderstorm is used in the "Made With Unity" game D.R.O.N.E.



Note: Thor Thunderstorm is not a complete Weather System, it focuses on Thunder and Lightning only and excels in that field. It can be integrated easily in existing weather and sky solutions.

Technical details
  • 8 lightning bolt meshes (~40 vetices)
  • 1 sheet lightning mesh (250 vertices)
  • 4096x2048 texture atlas for the lightning bolts
  • 1024x1024 texture for sheet lightning
  • 2 unlit shaders
  • 2 materials
  • 29 audio clips
