Cg Programming/Unity/Two-Sided Smooth Surfaces
< Cg Programming | Unity
This tutorial covers two-sided per-pixel lighting (i.e. two-sided Phong shading).
Here we combine the per-pixel lighting discussed in Section “Smooth Specular Highlights” with the two-sided lighting discussed in Section “Two-Sided Surfaces”.
Shader Coder
[edit | edit source]The required changes to the code of Section “Smooth Specular Highlights” are: new properties for the back material, duplication of the passes with front-face culling for one copy and back-face culling for the other copy, and negation of the surface normal vector for the rendering of the back faces. It's actually quite straightforward. The code looks like this:
Shader "Cg two-sided per-pixel lighting" {
Properties {
_Color ("Diffuse Material Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_SpecColor ("Specular Material Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_Shininess ("Shininess", Float) = 10
_BackColor ("Back Material Diffuse Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_BackSpecColor ("Back Material Specular Color", Color)
= (1,1,1,1)
_BackShininess ("Back Material Shininess", Float) = 10
}

Summary
[edit | edit source]Congratulations, you have reached the end of this short tutorial. We have seen:
- How two-sided surfaces can be rendered with per-pixel lighting.
Further reading
[edit | edit source]If you still want to know more
- about the shader version for single-sided per-pixel lighting, you should read Section “Smooth Specular Highlights”.
- about the shader version for two-sided per-vertex lighting, you should read Section “Two-Sided Surfaces”.
