lighting changes on scene switch

 When scene switching the lighting might change, going suddenly dark - or it might start off correct until you switch back to the scene - for me this has been down to the use of the skybox as an ambient source-  switching it to a fixed colour (or something that isn't the default skybox) has remedied the situation.
 (much) Older posts have indicated that turning off continuous/auto light baking can help too, although at time of writing, Unity 2021 has no such option!

setting VFX graph properties using C#

How to set values for your custom properties in VFX Graph. Yeah, there are binders, but I find they expect a rather precise  way of working.. Making your own scripts forces Unity to do what you actually want haha. In my VFX graph, I have a VECTOR 3 value named "realSpawnPos" which I'm using as the spawn position for some particles. It's important to note that "position", whilst it is a Vector3.. doesn't like receiving Vector 3 values. So make sure you set it up as a Vector 3 in the VFX graph. Further to this - Make sure in the VFX Graph, your position node is set to WORLD, if you need to set/get/whatever the world position and not local... your objects are probably nested in a million groups/transforms..   using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.VFX; public class bindPosition : MonoBehaviour {     public GameObject target_thing;     public VisualEffect visualEffect;     void Update()     {

scripting custom render texture creation, assignment, shaders

I got a little fed up of dragging the (wrong) custom render texture swatches onto materials in the inspector (slightly down to my crap naming conventions & Unity's project window only showing the first 8 letters of each name- can this be changed?!), so I decided to figure out a C# script that could make this easier. The entire script is way below - I'm just going to highlight a few important lines.   Shader shader = Shader.Find("custom/createdTextureShader"); This finds a shader that you've created externally. You could have a public shader variable at the top instead, so you could drop stuff into the Inspector.   _init_mat = new Material(init_shader);   Here we make a new material, using a specified shader type.  _init_mat.SetTexture("_initTex", init_texture); Then we give it a texture file. _initTex is a property I've specified for the init_shader. Typically there is a _MainTex by default. I just wanted to see if you could specify arbitrary p
