Transparent Shader Family

The Transparent shaders are used for fully- or semi-transparent objects. Using the alpha channel of the Base texture, you can determine areas of the object which can be more or less transparent than others. This can create a great effect for glass, HUD interfaces, or sci-fi effects.

Transparent Vertex-Lit

Assets needed:

• One Base texture with alpha channel for Transparency Map

Transparent Diffuse

Assets needed:

• One Base texture with alpha channel for Transparency Map

Transparent Specular

Assets needed:

• One Base texture with alpha channel for combined Transparency Map/Specular Map

Note: One limitation of this shader is that the Base texture’s alpha channel doubles as a Specular Map for the Specular shaders in this family.

Transparent Normal mapped

Assets needed:

• One Base texture with alpha channel for Transparency Map
• One Normal map normal map, no alpha channel required

Transparent Normal mapped Specular

Assets needed:

• One Base texture with alpha channel for combined Transparency Map/Specular Map
• One Normal map normal map, no alpha channel required

Note: One limitation of this shader is that the Base texture’s alpha channel doubles as a Specular Map for the Specular shaders in this family.
