    Material Function Library UE5 The last piece of my 2D SDF library.All of the advanced shapes you can see in this post are coming from Indigo’s Article (+ShaderToy), please check it out:2D distance functions I’ve only recreated them in Unreal’s Material Graph using nodes, it was a lot of fun and a great way to…

    Introduction In this post, I’ll show you how you can create a gradient from a 2D SDF and how it can be used as a flowmap in the material to warp a texture or in Niagara to drive the location of particles! I’ve also added a bonus section about Anti Aliasing, something that I haven’t covered before.If you haven’t seen…

    Material Function Library UE5 This is the Second Part of a 2D Sign Distance Field Material Function Library I created for Unreal Engine.SDFs can be used in various different ways, in this case, they are very powerful and useful when creating materials. Here you can see different ways shapes can be combined.Check out the blog…

    UE Shader Exploration A very short exploration I did a couple of years ago, after posting a blog post about creating circle shapes and expanding rings in UE4’s shader graph All the circles and gradients are done using Signed Distance functions.The challenge came from getting the right size and timing for each circle, to recreate…
