Simple Water Caustic Pattern In Unity ShaderGpaph

shadertoy上有各种神奇的效果，以我的见识根本想象不到这些是怎么弄出来的。

不过不会做至少可以先会用。

这篇文章抓取一个shadertoy的示例以制作一个测试效果。

参考这篇shadertoy，使用自定义节点装填hlsl的noise代码

Shader - Shadertoy BETA

首先使用世界xz坐标作为uv，添加tiling&offset调整。

表现为这样子

具体做法是创建hlsl文件写入计算方法，shadertoy上的写法和unity hlsl中有些区别，按位置诸葛替换掉即可。

{return x - floor(x / 289.0) * 289.0;
}float4 permute(float4 x)
{return mod289((x * 34.0 + 1.0) * x);
}float4 snoise(float3 v)

}

但是注意，想要在unity的自定义节点中输出，必须要在调用方法中使用out关键字，有几个输出就添加几个out，并且方法名最后添加_float后缀，然后在自定义节点中引用此hlsl文件，设置传入值和输出值。
