How To: Hi Poly Object with a low Poly Shadow

Hi,

i need a shader that only cast a shadow. I found some keywords, but didn't find any documentation.

This is what i found, to only display the shadow of an object.

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. Shader "TreeShader"
3. {
4.    SubShader
5.    {  
6.       UsePass "VertexLit/SHADOWCASTER"
7.    }
8. }
9.  

But this is not working on transparent textures like trees.

Also i found some thing about ShadowCaster - but how it works?

 

i tryed it, but i doesnt work.

Unity Editor says: "Shader 'TreeShader': no subshader can run on this graphics card"

This is my shader:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. Shader "TreeShader"
3. {
4.     Properties {
5.         _Color ("Main Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
6.         _Cutoff ("Base Alpha cutoff", Range (0,.9)) = .9    
7.         _MainTex ("Base (RGB)", 2D) = "white" {}
8.     }
9.    
10.    SubShader
11.    {  
12.       UsePass "Transparent/Cutout/VertexLit/Caster"
13.    }
14. }
15.  

 

Thanks, this make sense. But where i can find the original shaders in unity3d? I can't find the shaders in the directory's.

 

Look at the stickies for the forum that this topic is in.
