๐Ÿงต breakdown thread of the Halo energy shield vfx!

(there's a couple approaches you could take for this, and a lot of optimisations possible for each part, so take this more as a general 'approach' than a specific step-by-step!)

It's a custom shader in the scene rather than post-process based, but yeah using some similar concepts

Waves A Unity Flow tutorial about moving vertices to create waves.

Calculated in shader, was 3 or 4 Gerstner Waves, with an added noise texture to break up some of the obvious repetition

Thanks! My first thought is to cheat a bit, by passing the required light data in via properties using a C# script, and copy however HDRP calculates the attenuation or use a cone SDF

Feel like I haven't shared anything in a while - probably because progress has been pretty slow on my current project. Might try posting more WIP stuff ๐Ÿ‘€

Quick and dirty test for some TotK-inspired "fluid" motion on volumetric height fog โ˜

Rendering the sphere on a buffer with top-down projection and using that buffer on a custom RT that displaces and blends it with itself in order to leave a distorted trail

But I can't imagine it was more than a few hours total... and maybe another just staring at it and tweaking values ๐Ÿ˜‹
