unity3d shader指南

Unity中的Shader有3种方式：

1.      surface shaders

2.      vertex and fragment shaders

3.      fixed function shaders

在shader tutorial中会指引你使用合适的shader类型。

不管你选择什么类型，shader的代码实际上都在用ShaderLab来组织。如：

Shader "MyShader" {

    Properties {

        _MyTexture ("MyTexture", 2D) = "white" { }

        // other properties likecolors or vectors go here as well

    }

    SubShader {

        // here goes the 'meat' ofyour

        // - surface shader or

        //  - vertex and program shader or

        //  - fixed function shader

    }

    SubShader {

        // here goes a simplerversion of the SubShader above than can run on older graphics cards

    }

}

建议先从ShaderLab的基础概念、语法了解起，然后是Surface Shaders，或是vertext and fragment shaders。由于fixed functionshaders是用ShaderLab来写的，你可以在ShaderLab中找到它们的更多信息。

下面的指南中包括大量的不同类shader的例子。为了获取更多特别的surface shaders，你可以从Resources section中获取Unity内置shaders的源码。Unity的Image Effects包包含很多有趣的vertext and fragment shaders。
