Hi,
I released a new asset that tints Unity shadows with a color.
I hope it will prove useful to your projects.

You can set separately the amount of tint on the diffuse and the projected shadows ( this is what makes it different from using an ambient light ).

All Unity shaders that can receive shadows are included.

Compiled shaders are fail.

I understand you would feel that way and to be honest I do too, but there might be a better way of saying it without being so blunt and sounding so negative. I suggest you get in touch with the author. Depending on what you need, you guys might come to an agreement, we never know.

Thanks for your feedback,
Compiled shaders have some advantages : They do not take time to compile, they are harder to be imitated.
There are customers who wish a solution - this asset is for them.
There are others who wish to learn or tinker themselves the shaders, this asset is not for them and I make sure those customers are aware before they buy the product. Thanks for the best first comment ever.

Alf203: Cheers mate, nice to see you around :slight_smile:

Great work!

Thanks for your kind words,
Colored shadows currently work where unity shadows work.
I am working on improving them a little, by allowing soft shadows in unity free.
