5/16/2023 0 Comments Jackie chan uncle aiyaWhen you build the game, the engine goes through all your Materials and figures out what combination of settings they use, and parse and compile shader programs for each combination necessary. something else, or no else at all #endif #if defined(_NORMALMAP))įoo = tex2dlod ( _NormalMap, uvw ) //or bar = tex2D ( _NormalMap, uv ) //etc. the "_" is a wildcard for "OFF by default" // can also have #pragma compile_type _DO_STUFF_OFF _DO_STUFF_ON _DO_OTHER_STUFF // Replace "compile_type" with either "shader_feature" or "multi_compile". Shaders are text files that are typically full of compile time directives like this: 1ĬGPROGRAM #pragma compile_type _ _NORMALMAP //<- you define the keyword here Things to look for: SetKeyword, MaterialChanged, SetupMaterialWithBlendMode, Shader.EnableKeyword(), Shader.DisableKeyword(). If you examine StandardShaderGUI.cs ( get it here), you see that a whole bunch of stuff happens when you change a material setting. You want to create a material with any specific shader variant, programatically. You want to switch a shader from Opaque to Transparent at runtime. You have a material with like 5 textures, what happens if you remove some of them at runtime? Does it become more efficient? (with specifics for unit圓d and Standard, Uber, Custom shaders) Here’s a few high level scenarios you’d experience: If you like what you read, follow us on Facebook and Twitter to get the latest updates.I’ll briefly explain how shader programs are created and invoked under the hood, with shader variant compilation.

Check. Two protagonist teens? One girl and one boy in futuristic battle gear? Check. Ling here has a point, as the similarities become obvious when compared side-by-side. There's a Singaporean connection in all of this too.Īn eagle-eyed viewer, Samuel Ling, realised something: The new Jackie Chan Adventures bears an uncanny resemblance to the animated series Dream Defenders, which was produced by a Singaporean animation company, Tiny Island Productions in 2013. The reason for this is probably because of a change in direction for the new series: Targeted at kids aged three to 10, the show wants to teach kids positive values, "highlighting traditional Chinese virtues and healthy habits". Other than Jackie, this new series has almost nothing to do with the original Jackie Chan Adventures at all. (新成龙历险记 in Mandarin)įrom the looks of it, the new series is a huge departure from the original. Recently, the announcement of a remake of the cartoon made fans excited for perhaps a nostalgic reboot, but many were let down when they saw the trailer for the All New Jackie Chan Adventures.
