The Aura Glass shader offers an effortless way to craft stunning, transparent materials that add a touch of sophistication and visual appeal to your projects.
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.

Description

The Aura Glass shader offers an effortless way to craft stunning, transparent materials that add a touch of sophistication and visual appeal to your projects. This versatile shader is compatible with both simple and intricate models, allowing for a wide range of creative applications. Tailoring the look and feel of your materials is a breeze, thanks to the easily adjustable color schemes and various shader parameters.


Enhanced Features:

  • Pure Shader-Based: The effect is entirely generated with shaders. Ensuring a consistent and high-quality appearance.
  • Highly Customizable: Adjust a wide range of parameters to fine-tune the material's appearance to your specific needs.
  • Optimized for Performance: Designed with efficiency in mind.
  • Extensive Material Library: Includes 30 pre-configured materials, ready to be used out-of-the-box or as a starting point for your own unique creations.
Technical details

The Aura Glass shader is designed for Unity and creates a unique visual effect that blends colors and transparency based on the object's orientation relative to the camera. This shader is ideal for creating glass-like materials with an aura effect that changes color and opacity dynamically.


Properties

  1. _Color (Color): Primary color of the material. Default is white (1,1,1,1).
  2. _SColor (Secondary Color, Color): Secondary color that blends with the primary color based on the view direction. Default is red (1,0,0,1).
  3. _Rim (Float): Controls the intensity of the rim light effect. Default value is 1.0.
  4. _Thr (Threshold, Range(0.0, 1.0)): Threshold for opacity changes. Lower values increase the range of view angles over which the color blend and transparency change. Default is 0.3.

Usage

  1. Creating Material: Create a new material and assign the "Custom/Aura Glass" shader to it.
  2. Configuring Properties: Adjust Color, SecondaryColor, Rim, and Threshold in the material properties to achieve the desired visual effect.
  3. Applying to Objects: Apply the material to any mesh renderer in your Unity scene.

Notes

  • This shader is best used on objects where a dynamic, view-dependent color blending effect is desired.
  • Performance may vary depending on the complexity of the scene and the number of objects using this shader.
  • Experiment with different property values to get the best result for your specific application.
