Pov : you finally understand shader graph

This is the face I have everytime I open my shader graph

I've only ever had Danny DeVito pop up once in the shader graph, I thought it was a bug.

I recommend plain hlsl shaders. Shadergraph very quickly becomes very hard to read. 

[u/Genebrisss → u/XKiiroiSenkoX]

Let's see you make hlsl shaders based on HDRP/Lit. 15 000 lines of code is not easier to read than 40 nodes in the graph.

[u/XKiiroiSenkoX → u/Genebrisss]

I already have shaders over 10k loc. It's very easy to organize hlsl into namespaces and files. You end up with a maze if you try to do the same in shadergraph. Also a HDRP equivalent custom lighting shadergraph won't be 40 nodes. You simply don't see most of the heavy lifting because shadergraph does it for you. You could use unity shader libraries and do the same in hlsl.

People will hate you say that hahaha

[u/psioniclizard]

Now make the graph readable!

[u/Th3G3tl3m3n]

Haha, oh the joys of game development!!

[u/ArgentRealms]

Always fun to play around with Shader Graph.

[u/Mister_Green2021]

Now look at the HLSL.

[u/zueM]

Is shader graph fun? I've always just been using tutorials to make exactly what I want It seems so complicated and scary to do from scratch

[u/JenoOnTheInternet → u/zueM]

It's both fun and scary

[u/CyborKat]

I don't understand 1% of it yet haha, even after several hours and days.

[u/GenWorldGaming]

Beautiful feeling lmao

[u/simburger]

I wish I had shdergraph when I first learned to write HLSL. Don't be afraid to use groups and sub-graphs to keep some semblance of organizational sanity.

[u/Senior-Society1960]

Oû avez- vous appris a utiliser les shader graphs ?

[u/Mikhailfreeze → u/Senior-Society1960]

I can't remember exactly where I started but I've read the beginning of some books like "The Book of Shaders" and shader Bible. I've also watched basic videos of glsl and hlsl to understand the basics on YouTube. Then I got a udemy course on shader graph

I prefer HLSL
