Inspired by the release of Hi-Fi Rush by Bethesda, I wanted to see if I could get a similar vibrant and stylized aesthetic in Unity. Little did I know, it would swiftly lead me down a rabbit hole of custom rendering in Unity and, in turn, completely overhaul my entire perception of Unity's Scriptable Render Pipelines. This video is a showcase of that journey... so let's take a look at how we can use Scriptable Renderer Features, and Scriptable Render Passes to completely overhaul our rendering in Unity and replicate some of the techniques on show in Hi-Fi Rush.

This is exactly what Unity has needed. The SRP has been in a really unstable state for a while so tutorials are often outdated. Now that it's a lot more stable, we need more clean and informative content surrounding how it can be used by developers

@GameDevGuide Год назад

Thank you so much, I absolutely agree. So many people (including myself) have absolutely no idea how they work, or why they're actually better than the Built-In pipeline. So hopefully this video sheds some light on it!

Awesome video on the SRP .. You are correct. There is a lack of quality information about the use of the SRP/URP from Unity, and the quality of the tutorials online are often limited to "how to do this one thing with the SRP" without actually showing how it fits into the SRP. Really well explained here so I hope you will do more tutorials on URP in the future because this one is awesome.

For those who have a blank grey/white screen when following along, make sure the Bloom Texture in the shader graph has 'Exposed' set to off on the BloomTexture property in shadergraph. This stops it being overwritten to a blank white texture as its expecting to be set in a material.

@TheFerruccio 3 месяца назад

You are a LIFE SAVER! Thanks for pointing that out! I am able to get the bloom effect working, though if I dare switch to the “scene” view, I get a ton of null reference exception in reference to the SetupBloom() method, in the BlitCameraTexture() method right before the line “var lastDown = …” but I’ve been unable to debug this.

@csgocondom8372 Год назад

Hello, I am having some trouble following the tutorial from minute 12:20 onward. There is a very big jump in complexity and pacing when it comes to explaining the code. I tried looking for the Post Processing Pass inside of the package, but cannot find it. Inside of the CustomPostProcessPass.cs script: -The variable m_BloomEffect is never declared as far as I am aware. -''ProfilingScope'' gives me errors, changing it to ''UnityEngine.Rendering.ProfilingScope'' seems to fix it, though -m_CameraColorTarget is not declared -m_Descriptor is not declared. I tried declaring it as a ''private RenderTextureDescriptor m_Descriptor'' Inside of the CustomPostProcessRenderFeature.cs script: -m_pass is never declared I am trying to wrap my head around it, but I cannot fully understand how to fix the missing links to make the code work. Any help would be apprecciated. Thanks in advance.

@csgocondom8372 Год назад

Update: - I have managed to fix the m_Bloomeffect by creating a ''private BenDayBloomEffect m_BloomEffect'' variable. I don't know if this is correct, though -The Profilingscope now works. I probbaly made a mistake on my part earlier - I fixed m_CameraColorTarget and CameraDepthTarget by creating two ''private RTHandle'' variables - I fixed m_Descriptor by creating a ''private RenderTextureDescripture m_Descriptor'' variable I have no idea if any of this is corret, but I hope it can help anyone stumbling across this problem. I still cannot get the effect to work. I see at 14:47 that an ''internal void SetTarget'' is used. But this gives me errors because of ''public void SetTarget'' (which was implemented previously and can be seen shortly after). Is the video correct or am I missing something? Just a quick update.

Incredible video - more than enough information to get started without being overwhelming. I've used most of these features just enough to get a taste of what they're capable of, but never managed more thanks to documentation that is either missing, out-of-date, or just flat-out incorrect. I'd honestly assumed that there was something wrong with either my brain or my Unity install, the number of times I've butted heads with it and lost. I'm glad to hear someone who actually worked for Unity admit that this topic is mostly just badly documented, when it's documented at all.

@shrimpindustries Год назад

My dude, that is perfect! Ever since Unity has switched from working on the engine as a whole to working on hundreds of different modules simultaneously, they have neglected documentation so much. As every one of these modules is pretty much always in "development" state, they don't bother to document it well. And that really pisses me off, cause there is so much potential, yet so much time wasted on plain experimentation on how to get things working.

Otherwise it's a really great video, it's just not possible to follow along with sadly.

@smokydave 9 месяцев назад

I'm also having trouble. He forgets to mention declaring the m_BloomEffect, it switches between calling the CustomPostProcessPass variable m_pass and m_customPass. And the jumping around instead of completing one function at a time makes it extremely hard to follow. He clearly knows what he's doing but he's terrible at explaining it. I'm stuck at 13mins in with a white screen and i've gone through the tutorial 5x now trying to find what is causing it with no luck.

@graig2558 Год назад

This is amazing and what I've been looking for for so long. Do you think its possible to make a Depth Of Field blur post process that works with sprites using this method? This is needed by pretty much any serious 2D game and it's baffling why there is no 2D version available. I understand its related to the depth buffer etc and transparents dont work with it but can it not be set up to work off of say Zpos, or even sorting layer? If you could work this out it would be a HUGE help to the Unity community. I'll give it a shot now that I understand this a bit better but I doubt I have the skills to pull it off as well as you could. Anyway thanks heaps honestly this is such a great video.

For anyone not able to get this working, try blitting camera color to a temp handle first, and then blit it back to camera color through the composite material. It seems like blitting from src to dst when they are the same handle (ie. camera target) as shown in the video is not working for me (Frame debugger will show the _blittexture as black).

@vrclckd-zz3pv 4 месяца назад

I can't seem to get it to work. Could you share your code? I have: using (new ProfilingScope(cmd, new ProfilingSampler("Custom process pass event"))){ RTHandle tempHandle; tempHandle = RTHandles.Alloc(Vector2.one, depthBufferBits: DepthBits.Depth32, dimension: TextureDimension.Tex2D, name: "__tempHandle__"); Blitter.BlitCameraTexture(cmd, m_cameraColourTarget, tempHandle); Blitter.BlitCameraTexture(cmd, tempHandle, tempHandle, m_testMat, 0); Blitter.BlitCameraTexture(cmd, tempHandle, m_cameraColourTarget); tempHandle.Release(); } I still get strange graphical artefacts doing this though

@greywolf7849 4 месяца назад

@@vrclckd-zz3pv I think it's because your rthandle is allocated as a depth buffer but not a color buffer. Here is my code: First allocate in OnCameraSetup: public override void OnCameraSetup(CommandBuffer cmd, ref RenderingData renderingData) { m_Descriptor = renderingData.cameraData.cameraTargetDescriptor; m_Descriptor.depthBufferBits = (int)DepthBits.None; RenderingUtils.ReAllocateIfNeeded(ref m_CopiedColor, m_Descriptor, name: "_ColorCopy"); } Then blit in Execute: Blitter.BlitCameraTexture(cmd, cameraTargetHandle, m_CopiedColor); Blitter.BlitCameraTexture(cmd, m_CopiedColor, cameraTargetHandle, _compositeMaterial, 0);

Just wanted to thank you so much for this! I've had several stabs at URP NPR effects on my weekends, and it's been super frustrating on many fronts (apis changing, tutorials for older versions). I've managed to leak gpu memory and totally hang my computer a few times because it's been unclear how and when to dealloc RTHandles etc. It has not been for the feint of heart! I hope you do more examples, but this on is great at getting the concepts across more holistically. Finally feels like I can make some progress on my side work!

@JunkerJames Год назад

I'm about half way through - got the blurred elements coming through and about to get into the shader node part. I can't tell you how grateful I am - I felt like I was never going to break the back of this, despite being relatively adept. But by following the tutorial to the letter, and not going off script, everything seemed to work! There was a little bit of a breakage when I had hadn't yet executed the command buffer (since I guess the RTs get reallocated but never actually used?) but that was informative in of itself. It's about the 8th weekend I've thown myself at pipeline code and I'm finally getting a sense of the psycho-geography of where everything lives, how to use the debugger etc. I'm gonna head over to the patreon!

@JunkerJames Год назад

One issue i ran into was an error when i was editing in the Shader Node editor. "AddRenderPasses" must have been called for the MainPreviewWindow - I had not wrapped the enqueue call with a check to see if it was the game window. Needs to be this: public override void AddRenderPasses(ScriptableRenderer renderer, ref RenderingData renderingData) { if (renderingData.cameraData.cameraType == CameraType.Game) { renderer.EnqueuePass(m_customPass); } } Hope this helps others!

@JunkerJames Год назад

I also hit an issue with the URP Sample Buffer Node. It seems to render just one time when I hit save, but after that it seems to be black. Feels like it could be a number of things. The video says you may have to blit this yourself if your urp package is older (mine seems to be 14.0.7... which i thought was up to date?) (i assume in the same way as we blit the bloom targets and then give it a global shader name - except we just borrow the bloom material's first pass which is a simple copy).

@JunkerJames Год назад

Me again! 20:00 I tried adding the SSAO feature so that i could snipe the "_ScreenSpaceOcclusionTexture" and pull it into the composit shader as "_SSAOTexture" after calling SetGlobalTexture. And it seemed to work, partially. Like, it'd work for one frame then go to grey. Seems to flicker when the mouse moves/updates the screen. Maybe something in the renderer is rendering it really sparingly. Maybe it's because i have lots of checks to see if it's the game camera only. Investigating.

Hey! I really love these videos - there is one thing I have been struggling with - something I thought would be so simple, but I'd greatly appreciate a tutorial on if you know of a way to do it. While using URP, I am trying to get bloom on just certain objects. It's a real pain - because there's no such thing as a post processing volume for certain layers, even using camera stacking. It seems almost like a no-brainer when trying to achieve the effect of just some things glowing - but I have spent days now trying to find resources which can help me achieve this. On a side note - I'd also love to see a break down of the Shader Graph. Thanks for reading. :)

@foundtexas5424 Год назад

Maybe emission maps could help and setting the treshold to be greater or equal to 1 that will only apply the bloom to the bright areas you define.

Is there a way to minimise all those ResolveAA instances in the frameDebugger? There is at least 3 or 4 of them, maybe more and they are very costly. They are caused by using MSAA, so in theory could all be removed by disabling it, however if they are simply resolving the same renderTarget each time ( hard to tell without looking at the project ), surely there must be a way in SRP to store or access that resolved texture for effects instead of triggering another resolveAA?

@TheFerruccio 3 месяца назад

Several things regarding the “Ben Day Dots” effect: 1: Why do you have the “mode” set to “tiled” for “Screen Position”? Keeping it as “Default” eliminates the seams. 2: Why do you have a time parameter in the composite node group? 3: I needed a screen node to calculate the ratio to get the dots to remain circular for any aspect ratio. There might be a better way of doing this. 4: _BloomIntensity will not work unless its exposure in the node settings is disabled, as it’s been set via SetGlobalFloat() in the command buffer, and exposing it would override the buffer value.

@McSpjuver Месяц назад

Tiled actually tiles the UVs uniformly around the center, which automatically deals with aspect ratio.

@@McSpjuver Ahh that makes sense, it was an aspect ratio issue! Instead of stretching to the aspect ratio, it simply maintains the (ratio of the input image)?

To those who can't make it work, you need Unity 2022 and URP 14. RTHandle doesn't appear in ScriptableRenderer before URP 14, and SetupRenderPasses doesn't show up until Unity 2022. GDG mentions that he uses Unity 2022, but it's really critical here.

Honestly, The thing that confuses me the most is knowing what the different rendering stages are useful for in the pipeline. The order seems to matter completely and Idk much about what each stage does or the order of it. The best thing that has helped me start to understand so far is just learning OpenGL on it's own. It's alot to take in but it eases you into it a little more imo because It's a fundamental part of using OpenGL. When your using unity. Unity takes care of all of that inbetween stuff for you. You can choose to skip past it and focus on other stuff. (Which is the purpose of unity to begin with). It's just easier for me to lead into it rather than go back and tweak pre-existing systems personally.

I have been desperately trying to make a custom fog effect using a fog shader I created, which works fine when a material is created and placed on objects, but when trying any of the custom render features tutorials it never seems to work. I am confused by all of the shader specific (ben day bloom effect) things added into the code here and can't find any resources to help with my scenario. Do you have any advice?

@LM-cc7qz Год назад

Can someone please tell me if "GetCompatibleDescriptor" at 13:56 is also giving them an error and possibly how to fix it? I am on the same version of unity as the tutorial and I can't figure this out. Edit: he calls it before actually showing us the code for it which is at 14:35, would be nice if this was structured in a way so that we knew this instead of spending huge amounts of time thinking I was missing a using statement. Another edit, make sure that for your bloom texture parameter in shader graph that it "Exposed" is not checked. this will cause your composite shader texture to not actually be assigned the bloom texture.

@AleksanderFimreite Год назад

There is still a lot of fundimentals which are foreign to me about rendering and shaders in general. I can quite easily understand everything that happens within the shader graphs, but the entire code that wraps around it just to assign it to work was still confusing to me. Would be great if Unity just made a render pipeline which just had an array of shader graph assets to assign and then they all happen in order. But I suppose that might introduce some limits to people who wants more advanced access? (Or somehow be technically difficult)

can you make a video about compute shaders rendering to the screen in URP?

@Lantertronics 11 месяцев назад

Excellent tutorial on the SRP! Although... it's not clear to me what you're doing here that could be done with a custom post processing effect in the original Built-In Pipeline. I must be overlooking something.

Is the toon shader also used as a renderer feature? I always wanted to add a toon look but have so much different shaders on object that I never could afford to change all of those to toon shaders

@GameDevGuide Год назад

No, that's just the default unlit shader my object materials use.

@KandyMan90 Год назад

Does the custom renderer feature created in this video replace the custom renderer feature you made in previous videos? I only ask as since 2022.2 the previous custom renderer feature you did doesn't work for full screen effects. I tried using Unity's full screen feature in my 2D pixel perfect game, however if the UI is set to screen space camera then it doesn't work. Been bashing my head off a wall for months trying to solve this now

@GameDevGuide Год назад

This is the only video I've ever made about renderer features so far. The outline video was a custom post-process made using the built-in renderer. But, you could use the techniques shown in this video to port the effects over from that one into the render pass.

@FlashBash64 Год назад

I got it to work finally, but now I have an issue where the scene view looks like it has no light at all except for the bloom when I have the render feature enabled, so I'm no sure what to do about that. besides re-enabling it every time I want to see it.

@trashcaster Год назад

Did you end up getting a bunch of NullReferenceException as well in the console during scene view? It seems like m_CameraColorTarget is not getting assigned because the cameraType isn't always Game. If I add a bypass to it (just using else and passing the same functions/values through) I get a scene that is pretty much all black, other than the gizmos/grid, but no more issue with NullReferenceException spam Edit: I finally got it working. The trick was to replace "Params" with "_Params". The vector never got filled because the wrong property name was referenced. Edit 2: My dots just appear black, so its as if the BlitSource isnt showing under the Ben Day effect. At least it works this way in Scene view. In Game View it works mostly okay. But I have been noticing that my emissive colors on my materials, the intensity is going wonky on its own. I set it to 2, and then edit it again later and it's up to 9, and it seems like as you adjust it, it is growing exponentially (it stops at a certain point, it's not infinite). Edit 3: I've learned from adding a Debug log that the source is sometimes null in SetupBloom (which is m_CameraColorTarget in Execute). I think it is related to the Scene view, because the Execute function doesn't check if the rendering data camera type is game, while the SetupRenderPasses does check for game view. So the solution is to add a guard clause to Execute which prevents it from running in Scene view, or to remove the check from Setup so it initializes in all views

He kinda skips over it quickly so it's easy to miss, but the Execute method should end with these 3 lines after the profiling scope call: context.ExecuteCommandBuffer(cmd); cmd.Clear(); CommandBufferPool.Release(cmd);

@bovineox1111 2 месяца назад

I mean I was looking at multi-pass today and found it incredibly annoying tbh. I can use both the light mode tags you mention or I can add a renderer feature, which I think is what you’re doing here, or maybe you’re doing your own custom SRP but is this really any better than duplicating the object and rendering the same mesh with a different material, ensuring it renderers first?

@5daydreams 8 месяцев назад

I don't know what I have wrong or different to your scripts, I have rechecked line by line several times over the course of three hours now: I noticed a null reference regarding the camera color target. Is there some sort of editor setup which is necessary to retrieve the camera color target from the bloom shader? My result applies the ben day dots, but it doesn't render literally anything from the scene - I also had to force my post processing to check for both the ingame camera and the editor camera, otherwise nothing gets rendered at all in either the viewport or the game screen. I know for a fact that I messed up. I just can't see where and when, and I do have a feeling that the issue could be within the shadergraph settings or the scriptable objects for the URP setup.

@5daydreams 7 месяцев назад

Yeah, after a few days hopping in and out of this, I can only say the tutorial does bring great content to light, and should very much serve as a good template for the SRP workflow, and I have learned a lot thanks to the information provided. However, as several other commenters have pointed out - one issue here is the sudden burst of information from the 12:00 timestamp and onwards. This could have been alleviated by easing the viewer into the usage of the Render Pass and Features through a simpler effect, and then going into the BenDay effect. Another issue is I noticed is the quick cuts around the codebase without ever showing the full content - these issues are weird, as at some point the best approach to this is done, at around 14:00 - where the shader code is presented fully on the left, while zooming into the relevant parts on the right. I'm not saying this makes the tutorial bad, but it does make me question why are there so many different styles of code presentation being tossed around - it was incredibly easy to follow the thought process, but very hard to follow most of the syntax used and the overall structure of the project. These are points that I saw brought up by some other commenters, that I'd just agreeing with and adding my proposed solutions, however, I'd say my main gripe was the quick shuffling through the editor without emphasizing the really necessary steps, such as toggling the "exposed" boolean off within the shadergraph and other very unity-specific things which will completely break your workflow. Spending a few seconds just to highlight or at least mention that some of the editor setups will conflict with the code being written should have been a paramount priority - as these issues are the hardest to debug/detect. With all of that being said - I'm stil struggling to get the exact same effect happening, and still following this tutorial's guidelines. I do think the content here is great, and presented with a good audience and reach for exposure, but I still am not convinced this is the most instructive approach to this.

@HansPeter-gx9ew 7 месяцев назад

@@5daydreams I think the tutorial is *garbage* bc of the reasons you mentioned. The effect he shows is extremely simple, but the problem is just how to do it with Unity, it's just know-how. There is not much to understand here. This is no complicated linear algebra for shaders, but just: click this, write that. If he doesn't show it, doesn't provide the code it has almost no worth. I don't know why these game dev guys always skip half of the code, it#s then more of a show off then any help.

how different is this than doing it the normal way? if i want to add some fog, i'll just add it using a post process shader then graphics.blit. then lets say i want to have bloom too. then ill write a shader that blurs the pixels then bring the whites up and stuff. then graphics.blit. is this way of doing things any different than what i do?

@GameDevGuide Год назад

Not really... The whole point of the video is that you're writing your own pass, and bypassing URP's limitations via your own renderer. While it's true that the Shadergraph used in this video would be compiled to a full-screen shader, I do not see why you couldn't just write your own composite shader outside of Shadergraph for earlier versions of the SRP Package.

Haven't tried myself yet, but if I understand correctly it would probably be something like: write a custom render pass that duplicates the behaviour of the classic MainLightShadow pass, isolate the shadows, run that to a texture, then to a custom shader, then back to screen space, similar to how the bloom and AO effects are dealt with.

These days you can add generic post-processing features quite quickly by adding the Full Screen Pass Renderer Feature to the URP asset. It's just not as customizable, for example, you wouldn't just get access to the bloom texture as shown in this video.

For some unknown reason setting the global texture to share results form one material to another didn't work and didn't output anything. My workaround was simply cached it and set it directly using material's SetTexture API. Other than that this is a great demo for the capabilities of SRP. Thanks a lot!
