Testing the system with additive scene loading.

One scene has the camera with the connect to fog script and another the lights, the Sun light must be grabbed after loading the scene and passed to the script for correct sun positioning in the fog.

ETHEREAL module for Volumetric Lighting and Fog, v1.1.3 - Per light power control WIP.

The LightControlA.x controls the Directional Light power, the LightControlA.y the Local lights overall power (inverse power), LightControlA.z-w and LightControlB.x,y,z,w control individually each of the 6 local lights power (all values are offset additionally to the individual Unity light power).

 

Sky Master ULTIMATE URP, Ethereal module for Volumetric Lighting and Fog, new features in v1.1.3a

- Per light power control. The LightControlA.x controls the Directional Light power, the LightControlA.y the Local lights overall power (inverse power), LightControlA.z-w and LightControlB.x,y,z,w control individually each of the 6 local lights power (all values are offset additionally to the individual Unity light power).

- Light selection controls (experimental feature v1.1.3a), new system to allow volumes on a single local light, as selected in the relevant script slot. Option for two lights will be added in v1.1.4 (using the 2ond local light B slot in the script). The volume effect in the selected light is enabled when one of its R, G or B colors is at 128, it does not matter which one, the other colors can vary as needed.

 

Sky Master ULTIMATE URP - Ethereal Volumetric Lighting module, new Demo for v1.1.4 of the system

 

Sky Master ULTIMATE URP - Ethereal Volumetric Lighting module, new Demo for v1.1.4 of the system.

 

Added the first two lights for testing the new light array feature in Ethereal module. (two point lights in the image middle)

Those are defined by two dummy point lights that are disabled and grab the color, intensity and falloff from their parameters(edited).

Currently is a base implementation and need to also occlude the lights based on scene depth, which is currently WIP(edited). The first version will support 32 point lights, the goal is to also add more lights and spot lights type.

Those are completely dynamic lights as well, so can be controlled at run time by the dummy scene lights or by any kind of scripting

 

Sky Master ULTIMATE URP Volume Lighting module Ethereal v1.1.4 has been submitted to the Unity Asset Store !!!!

Ethereal v1.1.4
- Added new forest with noisy wind demo
- Fixed n issue where absense of the 2D noise texture would create a memory leak
- Added check for sun light existance in the script if sun has not been referenced
- Added tooltips and categories for easier navigation in the volume lights script parameters
- Added new system of light array impostor lights for adding multiple cheaper light sources in the scene without actual scene lights activated
- Add bonusu screen space volumetric sun light module
