Transparent Shaders

Note to players: This mod is a dependency for other mods. It does nothing on its own. This mod provides Transparent Shaders for other mods to use: - EnvironmentTransparentURP - for game objects and buildings. - TerrainTransparentURP - for the game's terrain (used by my Transparent Terrain mod). - TerrainLayerToolTopShader - for the terrain layer tool's top layer. - PlainColorTransparentURP and UnlitPlainColorTransparentURP - for simple, untextured, plain-color objects for various purposes. Example usage can be seen in my Transparent Terrain mod (source code). It also includes a built-in helper service, TransparentShaderService, injected in the Bootstrapper context. - Use properties such as TransparentShaderService. TransparentEnvironmentShader or TransparentShaderService. TerrainTransparentShader to access the desired shaders. - Helper methods like ReplaceShaders, ReplaceRenderersMaterials, RestoreShaders, and RestoreRenderersMaterials are provided to quickly switch between shader variants (for example, EnvironmentURP ↔ EnvironmentTransparentURP). Note: Restore* methods only work after at least one replacement has been performed. All alpha channels are independent of the color channel. The shader properties are: _EnvironmentAlpha, _TerrainAlpha, _TerrainLayerTopAlpha, and _ColorAlpha. These are defined in TransparentShaderService as follows: public static int ShaderEnvironmentAlphaId = Shader. PropertyToID("_EnvironmentAlpha"); public static int ShaderTerrainAlphaId = Shader. PropertyToID("_TerrainAlpha"); public static int ShaderColorAlphaId = Shader. PropertyToID("_ColorAlpha"); public static int ShaderTerrainLayerToolTopId = Shader. PropertyToID("_TerrainLayerTopAlpha"); public static int ShaderColorId = Shader. PropertyToID("_Color"); You can also use the provided extension methods for Material: myMaterial. SetEnvironmentAlpha(0. 5f); === Mod source code and donation: https://github.com/datvm/TimberbornMods (feel free to use the code for anything). v10. 1. 0: Added Terrain
