This pack adds new shaders, scripts, and meshes to Unity, complete with a demo scene showing them all off. The shaders emulate the graphical style of 3D consoles from the 90s.

🎮 New: try out the playable demo!

✨ Key features

• PSX-style and N64-style effects which emulate the look and feel of classic games.

🎮 PSX-style Features

• A resolution limiter to automatically use lower mip levels for your textures.
• Vertex snapping modelled after the low precision of the PS1's vertex processing.
• Affine texture mapping to mimic the lack of perspective correction on the PS1 hardware.

• Framerate limiter script.

📼 N64-style Features

• Limited bilinear filtering, which uses three texels instead of the usual four.

⚡ Lighting & Rendering Features

• Support for Forward, Forward+, and Deferred rendering paths.
• Directional light and additional light support in Lit & VertexLit.
• Ambient light controls - override Unity's ambient light.

📺 CRT & VHS Post Process Effect

• Barrel distortion to emulate the rounded face of a CRT screen.
• Chromatic aberration to separate the color channels towards the edges of the screen.
• Pixelation to reduce the screen resolution.
• A scanline effect which scrolls down the image.
• An RGB subpixel rendering effect which tints different pixels red, green, or blue.
