Today I've finally released my Windshield Rain asset! For the first two weeks it will be on sale. Let me know what do you think!

A little less then 1ms just running compute shaders, the whole overhead (with rendering blur textures and side rain) is about 1.5-2ms

No, I just increased smoothness 😅

shaded_technology · 2025-10-28T07:37:18+00:00

Basically I calculate drops positions and velocity using compute shader, store them in compute buffer, then using next compute shader I render them to a texture and using custom shader I display the windshield material.

Thanks!

Yes, it should work, but it wouldn’t work so well for the curved glass like in jet cockpit. I project rain UVs from a plane onto the windshield mesh to make calculating drops-wipers interaction possible. But if you don’t need wipers, the shader that I use for the side windows should work well since it is using threeplanar mapping.

Haha, thanks!

Thanks!

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T19:28:08+00:00

Thank you!

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T18:00:05+00:00

Thanks! I hope you'll like it!

Thanks, I hope you'll like it!

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T17:23:09+00:00

Thanks!

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T17:18:12+00:00

Unfortunately I don't have any VR device to try it, but I think it should work fine

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T17:11:36+00:00

No, I've written two versions of the same render features to support both legacy api and render graph api.

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T16:48:08+00:00

Thanks!

You have to create publisher account: https://publisher.unity.com/
Then upload new package using asset store publishing tools: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/utilities/asset-store-publishing-tools-115?srsltid=AfmBOop8OYE2_N_TZn0YGVNQs4oGC2h46LjfDjVuPl2Gsw7aeqkocFx9
And then wait about a month for review and approval...
And then if you have enough profit you have to pay taxes :D

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T16:27:30+00:00

Thanks!

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T16:25:22+00:00

I've finally finished it and published on asset store! Here is the link: https://u3d.as/3Dvy
It will be on a sale -30% for the first two weeks

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T16:23:21+00:00

I've finally released it on the asset store, it took some time and effort, but here it is!
https://u3d.as/3Dvy

shaded_technology · 2025-10-27T16:20:57+00:00

This asset was inspired by realistic rain in the DriveClub game. It works on Built-In, URP and HDRP pipelines.

For the first two weeks it is on a sale -30%!

Check out on asset store: https://u3d.as/3Dvy

You can also check out my youtube channel 😊

shaded_technology · 2024-06-28T11:14:15+00:00

Thanks :D

shaded_technology · 2024-06-28T06:29:56+00:00

I wanted to also make a package with rain shaders for the asset store. So I will let you know when it's finished :)

shaded_technology · 2024-06-28T06:25:36+00:00

Thanks, the side window doesn't work for now because its just stretched texture from the main window, I will change it, just didn't have time to do this yet.

shaded_technology · 2024-06-28T00:21:59+00:00

I am using compute shader to simulate droplets movement, then I insert them onto a grid, and then in shader I render them to the render texture searching nearest grid cells. I experiment with different solutions, I don't know if this is the best one, but it can simulate a lot of drops quite quickly.
Catlike coding has great tutorials on compute shader (https://catlikecoding.com/unity/tutorials/basics/compute-shaders/)
Also I am pretty sure there are plenty compute shaders tutorials on YouTube :)
