Custom lighting in shader graphs no way that the shader contribute to GI?

This is probably the same problem as in the DepthNormalsPass, where normals are not outputted on Unlit targets. You probably need to use a Lit shader, doing the “hardcode 0 in everything except emission” trick. But having a “PassFilter” node that will let you output through color, emission, normal outputs, or whatever is needed ONLY in the required passes (Like Meta and DepthNormals)

Shader Graph Custom Lighting Sample

Hey, been checking and im realizing it might not be doable with Unlit target, because even if you add a “Normal” output, it will get ignored when the shader is generated for the DepthNormals pass. It would only be doable on a Lit target using the “classic” ultra-cumbersome and unmaintanable tricks of not allowing the default lighting model to run so the compiler strips it (this is normally done by outputting all color through the emissive output and hardcoding 0 on all others so the compiler un…

I think Unity should consider writing this passes whenever the new “KeepLightingVariants” option is checked on the Unlit Master Node if they really want to support custom lighting on ShaderGraph. Its not propper support, but at least will let us have “something” to work with in the meantime
