Bring realism to your games by mastering post-processing effects
and advanced shading techniques in Unity 2018 Key Features Learn
the secrets of creating AAA quality shaders without writing long
algorithms Master shader programming through easy-to-follow
examples Create stunning visual effects that can be used in 3D
games Book DescriptionSince their introduction to Unity, shaders
have been seen as notoriously difficult to understand and implement
in games. Complex mathematics has always stood in the way of
creating your own shaders and attaining the level of realism you
crave. Unity 2018 Shaders and Effects Cookbook changes that by
giving you a recipe-based guide to creating shaders using Unity. It
will show you everything you need to know about vectors, how
lighting is constructed with them, and how textures are used to
create complex effects without the heavy math. This book starts by
teaching you how to use shaders without writing code with the
post-processing stack. Then, you'll learn how to write shaders from
scratch, build up essential lighting, and finish by creating
stunning screen effects just like those in high-quality 3D and
mobile games. You'll discover techniques, such as normal mapping,
image-based lighting, and animating your models inside a shader.
We'll explore how to use physically based rendering to treat light
the way it behaves in the real world. At the end, we'll even look
at Unity 2018's new Shader Graph system. With this book, what seems
like a dark art today will be second nature by tomorrow. What you
will learn Understand physically based rendering to fit the
aesthetic of your game Write shaders from scratch in ShaderLab and
HLSL/Cg Combine shader programming with interactive scripts to add
life to your materials Design efficient shaders for mobile
platforms without sacrificing their realism Use state-of-the-art
techniques, such as volumetric explosions and fur shading Master
the math and algorithms behind the most used lighting models
Understand how shader models have evolved and how you can create
your own Who this book is forUnity Shaders and Effects Cookbook is
for developers who want to create their first shaders in Unity 2018
or wish to take their game to a whole new level by adding
professional post-processing effects. A solid understanding of
Unity is required to get the most from this book.
