Unity: Unlit material Shader that recieves shadows

thatKidDarko

I found a previous solution which was a custom shader that works exactly how I want it to, however, the shadows that are cast on to the object are completely black with no way to adjust them. I have no experience with shaders so not sure where to start or what I need to implement so any help is appreciated.

Unity has a node-based shader editor, so even non-coders can develop their own shaders. Have you tried making one? That's a good way to start.

See also the video series from Ben Cloward.

get the amplify shader editor it's the single biggest investment you will ever make when using unity.
check it's custom toon lighting sample.

check out it's other samples as well, they are a gold mine for getting to make simple shaders. Their discord and youtube channel is also very helpful.
