Shaders

Official Shaders

• Built In Shaders - Here you can get the sourcecode for all the shaders that are built into Unity.

Unity 2.x Shaders

• BakedVertexColorBumpSpec2 - Lightmap in vertex colors, bumped specular.
• BumpColorSpec - Bumpmapped specular with colored specular map.
• DesaturatedDarks2 - Non-lit areas are desaturated; lights "saturate" the colors (updated for v2).
• FXHyperbolicStatic - Special effect for things like force fields.
• FXHyperbolicStaticParticle - Special effect for things like energy balls with particle systems.
• FXTrigField - Special effect for things like force fields.
• MirrorReflection2 - A shader and script to make reflective mirrors.
• SkinShader2 - Shadow-supporting wrapped-diffuse+ specular + bumped + rim + fresnel shader. Good for skin shading!
• TerrainTwoLayerBumped - A terrain shader that mixes two tileable textures, plus a bumpmap.
• TerrainFourLayerDiffuseFast - A terrain shader that mixes four tileable textures, and also works like the Diffuse Fast shader.
• TerrainFourLayer2Pass - A terrain shader that mixes four tileable textures; should work on all modern cards and has fog.
• ToonShadowed - Variant of the Toon-Basic shader that receives shadows.

Unity 1.x Shaders

Most of these will just work with Unity 2.x, except mostly for complex pixel-lit shaders. If you verified that a shader from this list works with 2.x, add it to the list above as well!

• AlphaDiffuseZ - Same as Unity Alpha Diffuse but with different Z buffering. Useful for interior (reversed normal) scenes that have alpha objects.
• AlphaSelfIllum - Textures object which is unaffected by light.
• AlphaVertexColor - A transparent vertex lit shader that takes per-vertex colors into account.
• Anisotropic - A classical anisotropic lighting.
• BakedLightingDetailTexture - A main+detail texture shader with precomputed per-vertex lighting.
• BakedVertexColorLighting - Like lightmapping only the lighting is precomputed in the vertex colors
• BlendedDecal - Suitable for superimposing alpha-masked textured markings onto the same plane as another surface.
• BlendedFlatColor - Colors a transparent object, good for HUD objects.
• BumpSpecModulate - Bump mapped shader that modulates between original texture color and "alpha color" based on alpha of main texture.
• Decal2UVs - Just like builtin Decal, just uses two UV sets.
• DepthMask - Masks areas with the depth buffer to cut holes in subsequent objects.
• DesaturatedDarks - Non-lit areas are desaturated; lights "saturate" the colors.
• LayerShader - A terrain shader that mixes two tileable textures.
• MirrorReflection - A shader and script to make reflective mirrors.
• MirrorReflectionLightmapped - A shader and script to make reflective mirrors with a lightmap.
• ProjectorAdditive - A shader for the projector component that does an additive/screen effect as opposed to multiply.
• Refraction - A fake refraction shader.
• Reveal Non-Uniform Texture - A shader for revealing a texture using another texture. Useful for non-rectilinear loading / progress bars.
• SimpleAdditive - Colors a object with a single additive color.
• SkinShader - A wrapped-diffuse plus specular plus rim righting shader. Good for skin shading!
• SkyboxBlended - A skybox that blends between two sets of skybox textures.
• TerrainFourLayer - A terrain shader that mixes four tileable textures.
• TerrainTwoLayerBumped - A terrain shader that mixes two tileable textures, plus a bumpmap.
• TextureAdditive - Colors a object with a additive texture.
• TexturedFont - Use this shader in place of the built in Text Shader for multicolored fonts instead of solid colored ones.
• UnlitAlpha - A non-backface culled, unilluminated, alpha tested shader which is suitable for sprites.
• VegetationTwoPass - Great vegetation shader, renders opaque and then renders semitransparent.
• VegetationVertexLit - Vertex-lit shader with no culling that is ideal for vegetation and other two sided polygon models.
• Velvet - Velvet / Rim light shader
• WindowShader - Suitable for windows (the glass things in houses, not the darn Seattle company.)
• VertexColor - A vertex lit shader that takes per-vertex colors into account.
• VertexColorParallaxBump - Like the builtin Diffuse Parallax Bump, only takes vertex color into account as well.
• XRay - Additive X-Ray shader.
