URP Water Shader - Unity Shader Graph (Tutorial)

In this video I show how to create a water shader using shader graph in Unity 3D for URP.
Unity package for the URP Water Shader:

Hey there. I'm a little confused: As you save the sub graph Wave Noise Sub Graph, both outputs are set to Floats. However, at 11:07, when you've added the subgraph to the shader, the output nodes are named Out_Vector1 and Out_Vector1_1. Did you change the output type of the subgraph to Vector's outside the recording?

[@MichaelsGameLab]

Vector 1 and floats are interchangable. The name might have changed somewhere in between, but they are the same.

Hello, I'd like to apply this to a cube and it sort of works, but it makes a wave on the top and bottom surface. How can I make it so that it only makes waves on the top surface? Thank you

[@MichaelsGameLab]

Hmmm... maybe you could do some sort of comparison with the object normal vectors where you only allow the waves if it is the top face. I am not sure though.

Thank you sir for tiled water

[@cashoto6324]

At 11:08 I can't connect the add and combine nodes, do you know the reason for this?

[@MichaelsGameLab]

Shadergraph can be weird sometimes :(

[@cashoto6324]

Turns out my texture wasn’t a LOD or sum

Hello, good tutorial but the refraction doesn't work while I import your project and I use unity 2021.3.38 (a close version of you) and URP. Did you make some specific change that you doesn't show in the video ? Like in the setting ?

[@MichaelsGameLab]

Everything should be in the video. Maybe it's something in the render settings?

[@niknikagain]

I have the same issue - all work fine except the refraction ((

amazing video when ur showing what to do you go a bit fast but no other complaints

Hey! Thanks for this first of all. Just wondering - im having issues with my own noise textures. When i just use noise node it works, but if i try to use my own noise pngs it doesnt, do they need to be certain format in unity?

[@MichaelsGameLab]

Are the dark parts of your noise png black or transparent?

[@masoncrowe]

@@MichaelsGameLabblack!

[@MichaelsGameLab]

​@@masoncrowemaybe try making them transparent instead. I sort of remember having a similar issue.

hi when i add the material to my subdivided plane it remains grey? I'm new to unity and not sure if there's a setting or anything I need on for this to work? lol cant get any water to work in my scene,even free assets remain pink help would be really appreciated!!

[@MichaelsGameLab]

Do you have URP installed and configured?

[@harriet4611]

@@MichaelsGameLab no, but ive tried looking for where I can download if and I cant find it anywhere, do you know how I can add it? :) thank u for replying btw

@@MichaelsGameLab Hello! same problem here! I installed URP but I dont actually know the config I should use for shaders of this type

[@JamesOfToya]

But how do i make a boat to float on the water?

[@MichaelsGameLab]

That is a more complicated issue.
Acerola has a good video regarding this: th-cam.com/video/ja8yCvXzw2c/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Rg0AvNa9PR-7obhi
It is not a tutorial, but has some good info.
