Global illumination with cutouts

Postby JohnnyFactor » Sat Sep 08, 2018 6:29 pm

When I bake lights with a cutout shader, the GI calculations ignore the alpha info. This works fine with Unity Standard shader, but I don't know which flag to set in ASE. You can see an example in the screenshot. The King of Hearts card is using Unity Standard Cutout shader.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Unity 2018.2.7.

Attached is the shader file for the Ace of Hearts card and the associated texture, in a zip file.

Thanks for the sample!

You'll have to rename your Albedo do Texture Sample node to MainTex, this resolved the issue in your sample.

Apologies for the inconvenience, this is actually a Unity limitation/requirement.

Thanks!
