Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Thanks Kees! The area light is made using a spot light because its the only light that has a rotate-able light view prj. So I can create an area by offsetting its position left and right, up and down with a transposed light view prj. None of the other lights rotate the projection on the z axis. As I control the bias inside… -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Thanks for your time kees! I love you! About the shadow map, I did a very simple custom code to show you what happens. As you can see by the node preview, the custom code compiles normally (float3 shadMap = SFX_TEXTURE0.Sample(SFX_SAMPLER0, uv);), but as soon as you connect it to a light loop, it throws an error:… -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Shadow Map: Can you give a code example of the shadowmap issue? I don't completely understand what is happening for you. There shouldn't be anything generated that is not available during compile time, but I might be misunderstanding the issue. We use shadowmap information directly also in for example the… -
[MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Hi folks! Decided to redo my pbr shader from the ground up following a metallness workflow. There will be two versions, one with all parameters textures separated, and one that uses each channel of a single texture. Also simplified a lot of things, one of them is that you no longer need a checkbox to use a texture. This… -

@blukazs I think I will have the shader done by sunday! @shaderfx Thanks a lot for your time Kees! Can we hope for it to be added? What about that custom code shadow map error? Any ideas? -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Hey Kees! Sorry to bother, but I was checking maya docs and saw that dx11ShaderNode and GLSLShaderNode has the some uniform parameters. One of them is the following. AreaPosition0-3 float3/4 (dx11Shader) vec3/4 (glslShader) Position for the four corners of an area light. Is it possible to query this in shaderFx, maybe… -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
No problems! No, shaderFx is visual programming, much more powerful then mayas viewport. You can create custom techniques and do lots of things that are impossible via hypershade. Things like custom shadow filtering, blending normals, blur maps, create your own procedurals and even raymarching, etc. Also, hypershading in… -
Re: [MAYA] My ShaderFx Uber Shader v2
Great job indeed. I loved Shader FX when it was a separate plugin for 3d max . (a decade ago) But once integrated it became too messy and complicated for my taste, nothing like it was before. My new toy is Eevee from new Blender 2.9 Imo the best real time rendering in a full scale 3d soft. True real-time reflections,…
