Cheap Light Alternative💡 Using a modulate blend material you can multiply screen colors and use depth masking to fake a light radius, make sure you clamp the result in a range above 1, Cheap and can work surprisingly well #gamedev #VFX #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine5 #UnrealEngine

A great way to cheaply fake lighting on particles is using a sphere mask in world space. If you add a Vector3 to the Object Position node, it can be offset to any desired position #gamedev #VFX #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine5 #UnrealEngine

You can smoothly mix gradients using Distance, Noise, and Power nodes to create a dynamically controllable falloff with texture variation. Replace the Noise node with any texture sample for more customization #VFX #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #gamedev #UE5

Using this Quantize shader will help limit the number of discrete values from a full 0-1 range. Extremely useful when it comes to achieving a toon effect #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #gamedev #VFX #UE5

Distorting UVs can be a great way to add variation and achieve certain effects. For example, this shader pushes and pulls the UVs for a bulging or pinching effect. A quick way to add depth to panning textures #gamedev #realtimeVFX #UnrealEngine #indiegames #VFX
