Extends the Stylized Water 2 shader asset with underwater rendering, by seamlessly blending the water with post processing effects.
The successor to the original Stylized Water Shader asset, widely adopted since 2016. Now re-imagined from the ground up for the Universal Render Pipeline.
Rather than being PBR-based, a custom lighting model offers direct control over color and light/environment reflections. All whilst retaining support for dynamic lighting and all of Unity’s lighting features.
💧 Shading features:
- Deep, shallow and horizon color controls
 - Intersection foam effect with other objects, based on scene-depth or vertex colors
 - Unlit/simple and advanced shading modes
 - Adjustable surface foam
 - GPU-driven, layered wave animations
 - Animated caustics in shallow water
 - Translucency rendering from all light types
 - Flat shading mode (low poly look)
 - Planar reflections (excluding VR)
 - Separate control over environment- and sun reflections
 - Sparkles based on normal map
 - Refraction, distorts objects behind the water surface
 - UV- or world-projected tiling (seamless water)
 - Vertex color support to control foam, fog and wave height
 - Transparency mask to hide the water inside objects such as boats
 - River mode for spline meshes (created using other tools)
 - Distance normals (tiling reduction)
 
⚙️ Technical features:
- Clean material UI with tooltips and notifcations
 - Simple and Advanced shading modes
 - Tessellation support, dynamically subdivides triangles (adaptive & distance-based)
 - C# API to read the wave height/normal. Integration for Dynamic Water Physics 2
 - Water Grid component, creates water tiles which can follow a specific transform
 - Utility to create subdivided plane/circle mesh assets
 
📦 Includes:
- Tropical beach demo scene
 - Several pre-configured water materials
 - Unique foam and normal map textures
 - Set of particle effects, designed for gameplay and environment enhancement (flipbooks with normal maps)
