● Recently, many works related to Light have been uploaded. For users, this means a wider range of choices and the ability to select according to their needs, which is great.
● I have also been working on 'Light' for quite a long time, and recently I was able to finish this project...
So this was originally intended to replace VAM's hair physics, but I ended up starting with a new renderer and figured the community might want to play with it.
It's far from a finished product - basically just a tech demo, but I thought it was pretty cool.
The original intent was to improve...

A cel shader built with various techniques to smooth out shadows on VAM's geometry. Cel shading can be pretty sensitive to small misalignments between mesh normals, which is pretty common with VAM's morph system.
So a standard shader might end up with jagged shadows:
I tried a bunch of...
Clothing Smoother
A lot of VAM clothing is mid to low-poly — up close you see flat facets and hard, angular edges, especially on tight or curved garments.
Clothing Smoother fixes that on the fly. It adds geometry to your clothing in real time on the GPU, rounding out faceted surfaces into smooth...
Classic panty, sim is off default. This has the new custom shader I've created to have better satin, latex, pvc material effect. There is normal and a pulled to side variant.

To change the color just use the usual color picker, to keep the satin look make sure the...

I love VAM. I've been an avid user of it since the early days. But the one thing that had always bothered me was how it renders sheer clothing items. As a stocking lover, it particularly frustrated me. This week, I decided to create a shader for use with The Shader Loader plugin by @regguise . I...
Using RenderDoc to inspect a frame from the game, I discovered that before the final render texture is generated, there's a 16 bit per channel floating point render texture generated, which is then passed through a pixel shader to map the values to an 8 bit colorspace, with no correction...
A performance-focused multi-layer fur shader for VAM. Built on a shell technique optimized with geometry-shader rendering, it pushes fur up to 32 layers while giving you the controls to keep your frame rate in check. From short stubble to a long flowing mane, every look is driven by one clean...
This is just a simple unlit shader for use with regguise's Custom Shader Loader plugin. There's one version that is plain unlit and another version with an outline. Not sure if I implemented it correctly, but the outline is based on the inverted hull style and it has a shader properties .json to...

1. What it does
On a single skin, clothing item, or CustomUnityAsset, Custom Shader Loader Alt lets you run several different custom shaders at the same time. Each shader slot drives only the materials you assign to it.
2. Quick start
Add the plugin to a Person, a clothing item, or a CUA atom...

10.0 Shader Rework
person_shader: Switched to dual‑layer shadows; added face SDF functionality.
cloth_shader: Adapted to VAM's Spec‑Gloss texture workflow; now uses dual‑layer shadows. The plugin automatically adjusts the transparency mode based on the material's render queue value...

This Shader comes with three plugins, respectively for...
If you find the model too dark, please check if the Shadow Threshold value is set too high.
It is recommended to use 1-2 directional lights as the light source. This shader does not perform well under multiple light sources, point lights, or spotlights.
