SeaShoreShader (test)

Testing something similar to this ( http://unitycoder.com/blog/2012/02/12/fake-water-shader-refraction/ )
but for sea & beach. (its all-in-one-shader & all-in-one-mesh for unity indie..)

Current features v1.0: (main image^)

– Looks horrible
– Beach texture
– Sea surface texture (uv-animated, with some distortions)
– Surface Hue property

Ideas:

– Substances? *edit: well well, http://u3d.as/content/allegorithmic/beach-shore-with-moving-waves/24V
– CameraDepthmap?
– Foam / waves that come to the sand?
– Sand looks tiled.. (maybe try uv mixing, like here: http://unitycoder.com/blog/2012/02/03/multi-uv-mixing-shader/ )

——————

v2

– Starting to get some depth to the distance, colors are bit off.. (using worldpos.. _CameraDepthTexture didnt work)
– Trying to use “linear” workspace, instead of “gamma” (its in the file / build settings / player settings..)
– Next should try fake caustics, cubemap?, some foam map? animated waves? (now it just has “ripples”)
– Distort the bottom also? (similar to surface..hmm)

v3

– Some mesh problems underwater..so cannot use transparent surface..
– This is not really working.. giving up until get some more ideas / time : )
