    Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, [download the Unity3D package] If you are using Unity3D you may be familiar with image effects. They are scripts which, once attached to a camera, alter its rendering output. Despite being presented as standard C# scripts, the actual computation is done using shaders. So far, materials have been applied…

    Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, [download the Unity3D package] The previous three posts of this tutorial have introduced surface shaders and how they can be used to specify physical properties (such as albedo, gloss and specular reflections) of the materials we want to model. The other type of shader available in Unity3D…

    Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, [download the Unity3D package] Why is it colder at the poles and hotter on the equator? This question, which seems completely unrelated to shaders, is actually fundamental to understand how lighting models work. As explained in the previous part of this tutorial, surface shaders use a mathematical model…

    Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5 This is the second part of a series of posts on Unity3D shaders, and it will focus on surface shaders. As previously mentioned, shaders are special programs written in a language called Cg / HLSL which is executed by GPUs. They are used to draw triangles of your 3D…

    Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5 We can safely say that Unity3D has made game development easier for a lot of people. Something where it still has a long way to go is, with no doubt, shader coding. Often surrounded by mystery, a shader is a program specifically made to run on a GPU.…
