You will get access to the beta for $12 a month, It will be released under the Creative Commons license. So not for commercial use, though as the plugin is more solidified, it will become available on the Unity Asset Store. If you would like to use it for commercial use in this stage, you can contact me. Currently my website/email is down, so you can contact me on Patreon account, or through Discord: PeerPlay. I'd say try it out first.

​@@PeerPlay Thanks for the prompt reply! I just sent you a friend request to discord (can't DM you there otherwise). Best Marvin

nevermind, noticed your patreon is still up and I cant lie, I want it bad enough I will pay ;)

@@XarmonixMusic the webhosting company billed my 250euro a year for the webhosting, so i cancelled it. I should have moved servers, now my server/site/email will be down for 40 days ;)

​@@PeerPlay Wow, I can understand the migration! & thank you for the update, I naturally assumed Patreon was an easier and more cost effective way to essentially host anything. When everything is back up I will be sure to check it out! Have a great day Peter.

Can you give me a specific example for a UI shader?

@@PeerPlay Sure, for example shaders used on UI like a coin button with a glowing and reflection effect when is pressed

Hi, I'm not sure what the problem might be. It could be that you used the capital Get instead of get, or it's something else. Make sure that you are using the Unity builtin pipeline. What version are you using. It could be that there have been changes with new versions. Here is a link with the RaymarchCamera script, as the result of this tutorial part. Try to compare this script with your version, and see if this works. pastebin.com/yS6MW1k4 Let me know if it helps!

It's not a secret. I don't have a tutorial yet on this specific shader, but it's a combination of Audio Visualization, that you can learn by following my tutorial series called Audio Visualization in Unity, and using Raymarching technique, of which I also have a tutorial series. Ofcourse it would be nice if I could make a tutorial on this visualization specific. I'd like to make a tutorial on that aswell, or release this as source code on patreon. I need to spend some more time on thinking of a best strategy, but above tips should get you started.

cool, i didn't check that out. I created my own. / im creating my own...

Impressive @@PeerPlay 👏

this answer! I may have left some parts of the code out in enough detail. Thanks.

Thank you, im happy you got intrigued, thats all im hoping my stuff does. Hopefully i can continue to explore the realms of audio visuals deeper.

This setup works in Standard Render Pipeline, not URP. For that you need to use a RenderFeature. Its an old tutorial. I would like to soon rewrite this shader to work with URP, but that will be available as source on patreon, not as a new video tutorial.

I wil most probably show you all these secrets one day. For now i just low key play around with it, and learn more about the techniques myself, but would love to teach raytracing audio visuals. If you are just looking for the source code, im planning in releasing those to the $12 tier. I need some new content for that tier, cause im busy changing it, so that the $6 tier gets alle source files of all tutorials.

Source code would help a lot for sure, I will pay any price for this pure gold content. Keep up the amazing work@@PeerPlay

what does sm mean? This is not a promo, but an introduction part. part 1, 2, 3 and 4, are already released.

I use OBS (Open Broadcaster Software), it's free.

Do you record in play mode or make builds? @@PeerPlay

@@eternal8lueforever in this case in playmode, as its a work in progress, but normally when its finished, i will create a build, and record in the highest possible resolution

🤩

No, that's perfectly normal.

If you open source what you have, i can add some of what I have, if it makes sense.

None of the options. This is pure hlsl shader, i use the raymarching technique. To be more exact sphere tracing. This is a signed distance field, no geometry.

In the video the white is the background of the unity camera, because the distance at which the shader is iterating is set to a fixed amount. So after that point it draws the camera background or skybox

Yes, try adding these 2 functions OperationRepetitionLimited: float2 opRepLim(in float2 p, in float s, in float2 lim) { return p-s*clamp(round(p/s),-lim, lim); } float2 opRepLim(in float2 p, in float s, in float2 limmin, in float2 limmax) { return p-s*clamp(round(p/s),-limmin, limmax); } an example of implementation: //store position in q, so you can use the repetition for a specific object float3 q = p; // repeat the object with a distance of 1.0, 40 times in X and 20 times in Z //this works from the centerpoint, so it will add the 40 on each sides of the original, so this creates a row of 81 in X, and 41 in Z dimension q.xz = opRepLim(q.xz, 1.0, float2(40.0,20.0));

ooh, im PeerPlay, just responding with the wrong account :P

@@prolthof great answer haha

I finally managed to get this: float pModLimited(inout float p, float size, int maxCopies) { float halfsize = size * 0.5; // Calculate halfsize for later adjustments. float c = floor((p + halfsize) / size); // Calculate how many times the interval 'size' fits in the range from 'p' to 'p + halfsize'. if (c >= maxCopies || c <= -maxCopies) // Check if the maximum copy limit was reached on both sides. { p = (c >= maxCopies) ? (size - halfsize) : (-size + halfsize); // Sets 'p' to the maximum allowed or minimum allowed value depending on the side return maxCopies; //Returns the limit of copies } p = fmod(p + halfsize, size) - halfsize; // Sets 'p' to be in the range [-size/2, size/2) using the fmod function. p = fmod(-p + halfsize, size) - halfsize; // Adjust 'p' to keep it in the range [-size/2, size/2) using the fmod function, this time with the negation of 'p'. return (c >= 0) ? (c + 1) : (c - 1); // Returns the number of wrappers and also adjusts 'p' in the process. } but when the copies collide with each other, it fills up to infinity 😭

@@JR-jt7cn that seems rather overcomplicated. Please dont use if statements in a raymarch shader. That will slow the shader down immensely. Graphics cards are not built for if statements, you want each pixel tot travel the same path. Have you tried my solution above?

good idea, maybe time I connect my Meta Quest 2 again, to see how this performs in VR

@@PeerPlay quest 2 does not have 3D scanning. Only quest 3. I can make a demo somewhere next month on mobile AR if you want

@@DevDunkStudio Oooh, i didnt know about scanning environment thing, i just watched a video on it. Yeah, that would probably be possible, and could actually be a really cool idea to sell my visuals, as mixed realilty toys / artworks to put in your room. This is purely a raytraced shader, have to see how it performs in VR, but luckily nowadays VR is more powerful. Might get really heavy, as its basically raytracing on left and right eye, for each pixel. I have to be careful with these shaders anyways, to not overly do stuff, to get high framerate, but ofcourse that is also the fun challenge with these shaders.

Would even be cooler to make this in real life, with a mini cilinder, inside another cylinder of maybe 2mm diameter, spanning 3mm to the next one and have like like this example 81x81 of these, which would form a 24cm2 grid, and then put it within a glass cube, and have them all pushed up and down based on sinewaves and noise, with each cylinder being a led light. would be a pretty expensive toy though.

@@PeerPlay ahhh ray traced sounds like a yikes on mobile😂 If you want I can put it into AR somewhere next month. Niantic just dropped some meshing updates I want to try out anyways

I don't see the point of uploading this to unity assetstore. Right now, this serves as a video on youtube, to have some extra content on my channel. I might sell it as a standalone visual on my Patreon, or create an Interactive Audio Visual out of it. This is something I still like to make at some point. Visuals that you can adjust as a player, and use some game mechanics to interact with the visualizer, while playing your own music. I think that could be something people might be interested in, so you can use it as a gadget at your local party, or use it to record your own audio for content.

Yes, the universe is calling you to enrich us all with your audiogame!

depends, how would you like to buy it? As a standalone program, that you can use for your own visuals on music and customize, or as a unity asset source code? What do you mean?

Would love to play around with this too. Do you still release your code on the Patreon site?

Yeah, I've been, and still run into that problem aswell. Doing too many things on the cpu, is heavy. You have to get creative to use alot of objects. This scene, is just a shader, with a calculation of a 2 cilinders and a cube. The rest is a duplicate of that, using modulation, to get infinite amounts. In objects spawning, you need to look at gpu instancing your objects, and materials, look at shared materials, or use a compute shader to render them. If you are talking about 100.000+ objects

That's great to hear! Can I see your work on audio visuals somewhere online?

@@PeerPlay Sure, there is a bunch of them scattered arcross my channel

for this visual I'm still using the built-in renderer, based on the system I created with the raymarching tutorial you can find on my channel from 5 years ago. In the next months, I will upgrade the system to URP renderer though.

most VJ's use Resolume for their visuals. Using unity for audio visualization is kind of a niche.

Yes, if you want the result of this part, you should just use a script to offset the camera. This is just the build-up towards the partial screenshake, which you can't do by moving the camera.
