Shader Pack Progress Update
It's been a little bit longer than I intended to get started on updating any of my mods. Insomnia has kinda been a right pain to deal with and get anything done..
Anyway that boring stuff aside, I started getting progress done towards fixing reported bugs with the released Shader Packs such as certain eye types turn black when viewed at from different angles. I've also noticed a few other bugs in my shader decomp code and spent all of the last couple days cleaning up and fixing the code. While doing this I decided to create and add in a few new custom shaders for modders to play around with.
These include things like a ENV+STAIN shader combo shown in the first image. It allows you to use a reflective texture in combination with a linework texture so linework and damage can appear on it.
Another shown (crudely) in this video is a color mixing shader. It allows you to basically combine and blend two material colors together. the lower face and back of the head is using this shader to blend together the Skin and Hair colors.
This one is a more specific for the transformed Zahha hair, but perhaps it can be used for other things. Modders are creative if anything. it's essentially a ENV shader (think Frieza's purple gems) with the ability to animate.
And this one is what is known as an "Unmoving Plaid" effect.
You basically can set a texture to be used as an unmoving tiled background.
There are a few more than this too, but I don't want the post to go on forever.
If you guys can bear with me for a bit longer I can finish up these new shaders and add them into the existing packs when I update them to fix the bugs.
The reason for not updating for the bugfixes now is that I didn't want to do that, then like a few days later have to update again just to add these new ones.
I hope this wait for progress hasn't been too bad, hopefully Things start goin a bit better for me soon and I can put more time into my mods.

The Hair preview reminds me of Guardian Bob’s Hair in the cartoon ReBoot. (for anyone who even knows that show!😅)
