Hi everybody,

I’m using shader graph to make an ocean. My shader modify vertices height to make waves.

Now I wanna create floating object wich react to waves.
I don’t want to use a collider on my ocean for performance.
But I need to get height of my mesh at some points…

Do you know how can I get it from my shader or from a script ?
Does existing a sort of ray casting for non-collider object ?
Thank you for all =)

You can’t “get” the height. You need to mirror the “wave generation” function from your shader in a c# script and create a function to recalculate the wave parallel at your desired position to get the height.
