I'm rendering this chunk as a Unity mesh and I have just one material (with alpha) which is applied over all the mesh.
Everything in the chunk is automatically generated at runtime, so it's not possible to prepare anything in advance, even the materials.
Here the model is rendering correctly (from a specific point of view which works):
The problem is this:
And here you see that it works if the mesh isn't rendering on itself.
When the material is applied, if you watch on the transparent section you will see it semi-transparent (which is the correct and expected behaviour), or you will see it just in part, because the transparency gets overlapped by the parts of the mesh which are behind the transparent part.
In some cases it even disappears or make anything that is on it disappear.
Does anyone know a good shader that can fix this problem and that is a diffuse? I tried to modify zTest in the shader, but nothing changes, or the render gets even worse.
Here are the two shaders:
This is the one the material uses
Shader "Custom/Diffuse" {
Properties {
_Color ("Main Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_MainTex ("Base (RGB) Trans (A)", 2D) = "white" {}
}
SubShader {
Tags {"Queue"="Transparent" "IgnoreProjector"="True" "RenderType"="Transparent"}
LOD 50
CGPROGRAM
#pragma surface surf Lambert alpha
sampler2D _MainTex;
fixed4 _Color;
struct Input {
float2 uv_MainTex;
};
void surf (Input IN, inout SurfaceOutput o) {
fixed4 c = tex2D(_MainTex, IN.uv_MainTex) * _Color;
o.Albedo = c.rgb;
o.Alpha = c.a;
}
ENDCG
}
Fallback "Custom/VertexLit"
}
And here is the second, which the first refers to.
Shader "Custom/VertexLit" {
Properties {
_Color ("Main Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_SpecColor ("Spec Color", Color) = (1,1,1,0)
_Emission ("Emissive Color", Color) = (0,0,0,0)
_Shininess ("Shininess", Range (0.1, 1)) = 0.7
_MainTex ("Base (RGB) Trans (A)", 2D) = "white" {}
}
