Guys i have a question about creating leafs but idk in what channel i need to put it in? I have imported an fbx inside of my project and im using it for tree generation but the problem is that the shadows on the leafs are so heavy and too strong, can i edit this in the fbx settings? Or how can i change this? maybe with a shader?
my shadergraph
i also have an animation for the leaves but i dont think the problem is in there

What is the view-dependent emission meant to do here?
Start by just adding a bit of the base color into emission

Start by just adding a bit of the base color into emission
so from the multiply to the emmision?
snow yacht
Sure, start with that and see how it looks
You probably want to multiply the emission with like 0.1 though
So it just brings out the shadows a bit
ionic cliff
without the multiply even

(This solution will ofc look weird at nighttime - you'd need to adjust the emission based on time of day if that's an issue)
ionic cliff
aah fk, i forgot to mention
snow yacht
without the multiply even
Isn't that better?
ionic cliff
im using Mtree as a tree generator tool

You can do more, but then you probably want to cancel the base color out a bit
ionic cliff
in there i have the option to turn off the shadows

alright, its meant to be stylized, how would i be able to cancel out the base color more?
ionic cliff
aah, ye i even want it lighter tbh
snow yacht
I mean make the emission higher, but make the base color darker so it doesn't burn out
Also subsurface scattering is a thing in HDRP at least, not sure about URP

You can't really "cancel out" the color of a lit shader, because dark and bright colors will still reflect light

im in HDRP

I mean canceling out the effect of cranking up the emission. Not sure if we want these areas even brighter
ionic cliff
the thing is, when cranking up the emission nothing happens
snow yacht
How are you doing it?
ionic cliff
like it shows that its going up but in my scene it stays the same
is that because of my tree generater tool?
Dont know if you guys are familiar with Mtree
snow yacht
Nope, no idea about that
ionic cliff
Damn, its just a tool to generate the leaves around the tree, when i turn of the "cast shadow" option its like i want it to be but then i have 0 shadow anymore
aah no, no im wrong
snow yacht
like it shows that its going up but in my scene it stays the same
No idea why it wouldn't update in the scene - are you in scene/game view? Maybe auto-exposure is evening it out?
ionic cliff
sorry
ionic cliff
No idea why it wouldn't update in the scene - are you in scene/game view? Maybe ...
no its not...

Did you save the shader graph?
Left image looks like shader graph preview

ye it is

Did you check ShadowIntensity's value in the material's inspector?
snow yacht
So absolutely nothing happens when you adjust it?
