Hello there! What works for me when exporting from Blender 4.2, in GLB/GLTF export settings, under Data > Mesh > Vertex Color, set "Use Vertex Color" to Active. The default is usually set to Material, which, as I understand it, only exports the vertex color if it's actively used in the material. So setting it to Active will ensure both color and materials are exported. Hope this helps! :)

@DisplacedFikaDev Worked like a charm. Thanks!

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you found it helpful :) I’m working on a new shader video and hope to finish it up soon. I really appreciate the love and support!

Thank you very much for your kind words! It means a lot :)

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm working on a few more videos and hope to finish them soon :)

Awesome! Can't wait 😁

Hello there! Yes, we can definitely enable transparency. For this example I will assume you have your alpha in the albedo texture. We only need to make some minor changes in the fragment shader. First, we change the albedo sampling to a vec4 to include the alpha channel "vec4 albedo = texture(albedo_texture, texture_uv);" Then we change "ALBEDO = albedo.rgb;" and add "ALPHA = albedo.a;" This way, we sample the albedo from the RGB channels and use the alpha channel for transparency. Also, I recommend looking up the "alpha scissor mode" as it can help with performance and sorting issues, especially when working with a lot of foliage. I hope this helps! :)

@@DisplacedFikaDev Hi, thanks for the reply! I had done this before! But it's showing the same problem, the leaves look the way I want, but they lose their shade and the trunk also loses its shade and I can see inside it, what is causing this problem? Without using the shader, the shadows work normally. When delet ALPHA= albedo.a; back to normal but without alpha for leaves

@@waterfill7925 Hey! It sounds like there are some depth sorting issues. You could try adding depth_prepass_alpha to your render mode: "render_mode depth_prepass_alpha;" That should fix the shadows and depth sorting issues. Alternatively, alpha_scissor should also be able to handle shadows and sorting :)

@@DisplacedFikaDev hey thanks so much! I fixed with others renders mode!! I need now ajust the leaves xD they are coming out of the trunk

It depends on what you're aiming to achieve. If you're looking for a subtle amount of sway or a more stylized look, adapting techniques similar to this shader could work well for a tree. Though, if you want more realistic movement, then you'd probably need to build a more complex shader.

@@DisplacedFikaDev thanks, i made some progress in my project using your tips, i just didnt really understand the part where u made it so that the rope didnt move, did you use the shadow mesh?

@@bixbite2 I used vertex color, which I painted in Blender, to drive the effect. Anything that has the value 0.0 (black) is not affected by the shader, while anything that has the value 1.0 (white) is fully affected. This allows me to control how much each part of the object should move. For the rope, I painted some parts black so they remain stationary.

Awesome! Glad you found it useful :)

Glad you found it useful :)

Haha, thanks! I'm happy you enjoyed the tutorial :)

Great suggestion! A globally positioned scrolling noise texture to simulate wind gusts would definitely be a great addition. Hopefully, I can incorporate more of those ideas in the future :)

Thank you, I appreciate the support! :)

Thank you! I've added the link to the code in the video description :)

I agree, different spaces can be very confusing! And I could definitely have spent some more time explaining it better. The vertex shader works in the object's local space. If we applied our wind direction directly, it would rotate as the object rotates in the world. My reasoning was that I wanted to apply the effect in the local space, so I transformed the direction using the inverse model matrix. This way, the wind direction stays consistent in the world regardless of the object's orientation. Great idea on making a video on different spaces! I will add it to my list of to-do videos. Hopefully, I can do that one in the future :)

@@DisplacedFikaDev Thank you so much for taking out the time to explain. I get part of it now. Got to dig in and experiment further. :D

@@theman7050 Awesome, I'm glad I could help a bit! For sure, shaders is all about experimenting and discovering new things. Feel free to share if you create something cool with shaders. I'm always interested in seeing what others come up with! :)

​@@DisplacedFikaDevyou know I kind of figured it out! I work with glsl and exprimented on 2 planes, one being rotated via JS before sending over pos to shader. So it was easier to go world to local by just: (vec4(uWindDir, 1.0) * modelMatrix).xyz; Because my webgl libraries supply just the model, view and projection matrices and not their inverses. Infact, it's not even needed in glsl shader code, so instead of: modelMatrix * pos (local to world) You invert the multiplication as: pos * modelMatrix 😅 Thanks a lot man!!

Thank you!

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. The Godot community is fantastic, and I'm grateful to be part of such a supportive community. Have a great day!

Thanks for subscribing! More shader content is definitely coming :)

Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you found it useful! :)

Thank you! I hope you find the video helpful when you come back to it :)

Thank you for the support! I'm glad you like the video :)

I'm not entirely sure how to do that in Godot, I usually have such effect directly in the main shader. I would need to look into that, but hopefully someone else can help you find a solution 🙂

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video 🙂
