    Hello,

    I'm attempting to work out how to make a self occluding transparent shader and was wondering if it was possible within shader graph?

    The best visual example I have is of the Oculus Avatar shader on the hands in the attached picture.

    Any help, or advice with regards to making a similar shader would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Not possible with Shader Graph unfortunately. This requires a multi-pass shader, or possible two materials with one writing to Z and not color, neither of which are possible with Shader Graph. Multi-pass shaders aren’t currently possible in SRPs in general.
