Description

Now with Unity 2021 and URP 11/12 support!

The Sharp Shadows Toolkit is a code package that brings sharp, pixel-perfect shadows to your Universal Render Pipeline (URP) project. Many games and experiences target a non-photo-realistic art style for which sharp shadows are better suited than the built-in shadows that tend to be either too soft or too jagged, especially on low quality settings.

The toolkit can be useful in a wide variety of scenarios, from old-school drop shadows for characters in a mobile game to ubiquitous high quality shadows for an architecture visualization project.

Technical details

Features

– Dynamic pixel-perfect shadows for the Lightweight/Universal Render Pipeline

– No jagged shadow edges or visible pixels

– Seamless editor integration using automatic asset post processing

– Two rendering modes

– Inject into screen space shadow texture for optimal image quality

– Draw after opaque geometry for optimal performance

– Handles both skinned and non-skinned meshes

– No restriction on the mesh geometry of the shadow caster

– Multi-object editing

– Fog support

Current Limitations

– For the Lightweight/Universal Render Pipeline only

– Only supports the main directional light of the scene

– No support for custom vertex displacement

– Alpha blended or clipped geometry will produce solid shadows (the shape of the triangles)

– Skinned mesh shadows may appear cracked if they are subject to large deformations

– Shadows are not anti-aliased when injected into screen space shadow texture

Please see the readme for a list of compatible Unity and URP versions.
