This is great. Thanks for sharing.

I think the short video or the webpage would benefit from showing the mesh without the shader, and showing the grass image which you used, so that it becomes more clear how much is achieved by geometry and how much is achieved by texture.

 

This one is really nice!

Two suggestions if you would like to enhance it:

- Add another texture, that makes the gras Color / texture. I would like to use a texture Atlas, so I could have various grasses with one material! That would be so great for my usage…

Thanks for sharing

 

Main benefit comes from self shadowing of the grass and the texture. Shader doing small wind and fix light problem.

 

Thanks for sharing.

 

But it's not production ready.
It uses a mesh for fur. For a custom mesh you have to create your own manually.

 

Hair&Fur(WSM) modifier -> Convert to mesh. About 3 minutes. Maybe couple of LODs

 

@halley The original blog post no longer exists I don't suppose you still have this shader? If so, could re-upload it, or share the code here on the forum, please?

 

I'm not the author, but the original page is still up on archive.org:

With a link to the unity project:

I ended up grabbing a different shader (https://github.com/Sorumi/UnityFurShader), so I've not tried this one, but I thought I'd reply since I found this thread while searching

 

This one is really very good, too!
It would be so great if it had shadows and direct light impact.

 

Thanks @codebiscuits!
