Question Is it possible to do conditional overlapping of textures in shader graph?

Hi,

Im trying to overlap 3 textures. One is the base textures that should always exist (the map view) and I want to be able to change the other 2 at run time via script.

I have made the following shadergraph to achieve this:



This works fine when both textures and that is because the alpha of the overlapping is also an input to the Blend node.

But when the scene starts only the base texture will be on the model, and on top of this the overlaid textures will be chosen and applied, in this case the alpha goes all the way up and it looks like this :



How do I avoid this?

The user should be able to select the overlapping textures, and until that happens I want to show the map, not a white blank screen?

Can I set the alpha of blend to a set value when there is no texture selected in overlap_1 and overlap_2 and when there is a texture selected to take from the texture?

Thanks

 

You can set default textures to transparent ones.

 

Thats a good idea, thanks I'll give it a try.
