Materials and Shader Graph
Go beyond material presets. Visual graphs, text shaders and access to frame data.
- Visual and text shaders
- Custom post-process materials
- Masks and intermediate textures
Build materials from operations
Connect Shader Graph blocks or write .rshader code. Visual and text materials share the same surface input contract.

Post-process materials have 10 injection points and 48 camera-context inputs. Use intermediate textures and multiple passes.

Custom depth and object IDs define masks for selective effects. Use the editable outline as a starting point for your material.

All features
Game-engine post-processing and color grading
Give every frame its character. Exposure, color, bloom and optics through camera profiles and local volumes.
Deferred
Detailed surfaces and clustered lighting. Deferred combines a G-buffer, shared materials and Forward passes for transparency.
SharpGraph
Build gameplay visually. SharpGraph turns typed graphs into C#, with events, async actions and step-by-step debugging.
Questions and answers
Does Shader Graph replace C#?
No. It describes image computation; gameplay uses C# or SharpGraph.
Can I edit presets?
Yes: shader presets are editable starting points for your own effects.
