Uber Hologram

Uber

The Uber Hologram combines the feature set of the Glitch and Scanline holograms, along with the same PBR and Fresnel settings as the Basic hologram.


Parameters

Basic PBR Properties

  • Base Emission Color Color - Controls the color of the object.
  • Base Emission Texture Texture 2D - Also controls the color of the object. This is multiplied by Base Emission Color.
  • Normal Texture Texture 2D - Used to change the normal vectors on the surface, which influences lighting interactions. May not be noticeable due to the usage of bright emissive light
  • Normal Strength Float - A value between 0 and 1 which controls how strongly the Normal Texture impacts the surface normals.
  • Alpha Clip Threshold Float - Any pixel with an output alpha value below this value is culled entirely. Useful for Dot Matrix holograms.
  • Metallic Float - A value of 0 means the lighting on the surface is like a non-metal (wood, paper, plastic). 1 means it is like metal.
  • Smoothness Float - A value of 0 means the object is completely rough. 1 means it is highly polished and smooth.
  • Ambient Occlusion Float - A value of 0 means no ambient light reaches the object. 1 means the full ambient light reaches the object.

Fresnel

  • Fresnel Color Color - Color of the Fresnel/rim light. Can be different to the Base Emission Color.
  • Fresnel Power Float - The size of the Fresnel/rim. Higher values mean the rim is smaller, but this should be a value above 0.

Scanlines

  • Scanline Mode Enum - An enum with three values: Screen Space means the Scanline Texture will be applied relative to the position of pixels on the screen; World Space means the scanline is applied based on the position of the object in the world; None will turn off the scanlines.
  • Scanline Rotation Float - Only works in Screen Space mode. Rotates the direction of the scanlines.
  • Scanline Direction Vector 3 - Only works in World Space mode. Orients the scanlines along this vector in world space.
  • Scanline Texture Texture 2D - A texture which encodes the scanline pattern. You can increase the scaling of this texture for closely-packed scanlines, and vice versa. In World Space mode, only the vertical information matters.
  • Scanline Velocity Vector 2 - Controls the speed at which the scanlines scroll across the object.
  • Scanline MinMax Alpha Vector 2 - Completely black pixels from the Scanline Texture will output the Min value (first component of this vector). Completely white pixels from the Scanline Texture will output the Max value (second component of this vector).

Vertex Glitches

  • Use Vertex Glitches? Boolean - When on, vertex glitches will be displayed, and when off, vertex glitches are turned off.
  • Glitch Sensitivity Float - How easy it is for a given vertex to fall under the random threshold and start glitching. Higher values mean a lower chance to glitch. This is a value between 0 and 1 that I recommend keeping very high (above 0.99) unless you want a lot of glitches.
  • Glitch Strength Float - How far glitches vertices extend from their original position along their vertex normal.
  • Glitch Offset Float - A time offset - you can use two materials with identical settings except a different offset, and they won't glitch at the same time.
  • Glitch Frequency Float - How often glitches occur.

Segment Glitches

  • Use Slice Glitches? Boolean - When on, slice glitches will be displayed, and when off, slice glitches are turned off.
  • Slice Width Float - The width, in world space, along the y-axis that the glitch takes up.
  • Slice Speed Float - How quickly the glitch effect scrolls down the object.
  • Slice Frequency Float - How often glitches occur.
  • Slice Jitter Float - A slight random offset which makes it appear as if the glitch jitters. Probably don't set it too high or the shader may flash too rapidly (capped to 0.2 by default).
  • Slice Duration Float - How long a slice glitch event occurs for.
  • Slice Direction Vector 3 - The direction in which all vertices in the glitch are pulled in world space.
