Transparent Cutout Shader Family

Note. Unity 5 introduced the Standard Shader which replaces these shadersA program that runs on the GPU. More info

.

The Transparent Cutout shaders are used for objects that have fully opaque and fully transparent parts (no partial transparency). Things like chain fences, trees, grass, etc.

Transparent Cutout Vertex-Lit

shader-TransCutVertexLit
shader-TransCutVertexLit

Assets needed:

  • One Base texture with alpha channel for Transparency Map

Transparent Cutout Diffuse

shader-TransCutDiffuse

Assets needed:

  • One Base texture with alpha channel for Transparency Map

Transparent Cutout Specular

shader-TransCutSpecular

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 Cutout Bumped

Assets needed:

  • One Base texture with alpha channel for Transparency Map
  • One Normal mapA type of Bump Map texture that allows you to add surface detail such as bumps, grooves, and scratches to a model which catch the light as if they are represented by real geometry.
