Hey guys, I really want to learn how to write shaders and manipulate them.
I’m starting to work in a company as a unity tech artist in 2 weeks, I’ve told them I don’t have knowledge in scripting shaders, and they said that they would teach me, but I’ve started to try and learn on my own for now, and I’m confused.
I’ve been going through some youtube videos like making stuff look good,
I’ve started to read the book called “The Unity Shaders Bible”, but I’ve stopped at about page 80~ because I felt like I was too confused by the information.
Then I found a book called “Unity 5. x Shaders and Effects Cookbook”, and started to read through it, at first I thought, this is much clear to me. Still, at around page 60~ some of the variables they use in the book don’t apply to the unity version nowadays and I got stuck and couldn’t understand how to manage it properly.
so I’m not entirely clueless now, but I do feel like it’s complicated, and looking for an efficient way to improve my understanding.
I will be very thankful if anyone can help to navigate me where to start my learnings.
