Hello Polycount Community
Here is the first volume of a
new shader series. Each volume will contain
one or
multiple shaders adapted from existing games for
Unity.
Game Shaders : Volume 1 is a shader framework based on the well known
Dota 2 game. It contains one base material declined in multiple versions. This shader is based on the
Dota 2 shader system and rendering.
By using this shader, you are able to follow the workflow provided in the
Dota 2 Official Blog Workshop to create your assets and thus boost your
creativity and
productivity.
You are able to create
any type of render,
realistic or close to the
Dota 2 rendering look as you can see in the demos.
It's also very easy to convert your
Physically Based Rendering textures to this material. Most of the demos were made with
PBR texture base and converted easily.

This was rendered with the associated original VMT files values and textures.

Will surely follow your progress
I am glad to present some of the features available in the Custom Hero shader.

Most of those features are completed. Few of them need optimization. And in addition, here is a screenshot of the Nyx Assassin.

Thank you very much !
See you soon !
I am always working on it but it takes some times to provide something really easy to use and very clean.
First, I'll provide a demo to let you see the shader and his properties in action. In this context I am searching an artist that can provide some art to illustrate my shader.
If you are interested or if you know somebody that might be, feel free to drop me a line at contact@blackfire-studio.com.
Next step is to make the shader available on the Unity Asset Store.
It won't take much time.
I am glad to show you the first Demo of the Dota 2 Game Shader Volume.
More demo's are coming showing weapons, characters and of course Dota 2 characters.
Release is also coming, stay tuned !
Many thanks to Svein Yngve Sandvik Antonsen for his beautiful Dishonored FanArt ! If you want to know more about him you can look at his portfolio : Svein3D
Looking forward to a release.
Here is a new demo of the Dota 2 Game Shader Volume.

Many thanks to Corentin Sibret for his very nice Shield based on a concept of Artyom Vlaskin !

Here we are... Game Shaders Volume 1 - Dota 2 is going to be released very soon. But to keep you entertained while waiting, here is the last demo made for all Dota 2 lovers (and of course for all the other one too ).
Game Shaders Volume 1 - Dota 2 Demo 3
You will discover some of the Dota 2 Heros shaded with the Game Shaders Volume 1 without any modifications in the texture and using the original VMT files values.
You can load the next/previous Hero by clicking on the arrows and look at the top to see the progress while you continue looking at the current one. Once the following is loaded it switches this one.
Simple, isn't it ?
I have a great news !
The Game Shaders 1 - Dota 2 package is now available on the Asset Store for only 20$.
Those shaders offer the same features as the one used in the well known Moba game : Dota 2. They give you the possibilty to follow the workflow provided in the Dota 2 Official Blog Workshop to create your assets and thus boost your creativity and productivity.

Version 1.0.2 is on its way ! This is a small update, but you'll be able to say hello to our new little Unity friend inside an example scene included in the package.
Game Shaders 1 - Dota 2
In this example you'll be able to take a look at a basic material setup and understand how to build easily a nice looking material.
If you want more precisions you can of course take a look at the Dota 2 Workshop !
I have also in mind to provide an example scene for those who are not friend with programming. You would have to possibility to drop you mesh inside a sample scene, configure your material and then just built and show your great Art to the World.
Don't forget to rate the package and post review if you liked it, or not...

Thank you very much !
The Demo 3 has been updated !
- You can now control the volume of the music.
- You can now compare the Dota 2 shaders and the default Unity shaders and see the differences between them.
To see the changes it's this way : Game Shaders Volume 1 - Dota 2 [Released]Thank you !
A new version of the shader has been submitted. In this version you'll be able to use the shader in combination with the Light Probes.
Here is a little demo to see what you can achieve with this feature.

I would like to present you Crowfall. It is a new type of Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) by ArtCraft Entertainment. The Worlds of Crowfall feature unique maps, rules, and victory conditions. Every World is different, and players join teams (Factions, Guilds or Noble Houses) to vie for control of each World.
I am talking about Crowfall because they use the Game Shaders Volume 1 - Dota 2 package for their demo footage. But better than words, I let you enjoy those screenshots where you can appreciate the great style of the game.
