HLSL examples?

Unity Engine
1

Hello,
I was wondering if there is any place where I can download some .shader file versions of any HLSL programs and/or examples of them. Also, if there is any way to write an HLSL program to calculate where in 3D world space a render actually takes place in such a way where if any 3D object which uses this shader should move around in 3D space or rotate, the texture virtually appears to stay stagnant in one spot, that would be great. Where could I possibly download such a shader that does this?

An almost perfect example of exactly what I am talking about can be found at…
http://www.pasteunity.com/WebPlayer.aspx?GameID=73
but includes a javascript to control the shader that is not always 100% accurate at doing what I want it to do, and heard something like this can be done in HLSL.

Unity doesn’t use HLSL.

Is there a way then to write a .shader file in Unity that will render a material’s texture by world position so that the material on any object that uses this shader will appear to stay in one spot as the object moves around?

This should do it;

It’s made for Unity 2.x but it sounds like you’re up for a bit of shader construction, so converting it shouldn’t be too hard.

I think the actual CG code is still perfectly useable, it’s just the SubShader {} and Pass {} wrappers that are have outdated tags in them, which you’ll need to replace with Unity 3.x equivalents.

Hi there I’m learning HLSL language with Nvidia FX Composer which I’m near to finish it, you keep track my web site and dl Shaders there :slight_smile:

Thank you Farfarer. That’s exactly what I was looking for.
