Start Here - How to Use
Finding the Nodes
All In 1 Shader Nodes integrates seamlessly into your existing workflow. Open any Shader Graph and you'll find all 60+ effect nodes ready to use in the search menu:
Simply look for the "AllIn1Nodes" section or the specific effect you need (like "Dissolve", "Fresnel", "Triplanar", etc.) and all available nodes will appear.
Providing Node Inputs
Each node requires specific inputs to work - some need data like view direction or normals, while others need parameters you want to control. You're responsible for providing these inputs:
Data inputs: Connect view direction, normals, UVs, or other shader data from your graph
Parameter inputs: Set values directly or expose them as properties for editor control
This follows the normal Shader Graph workflow - you can hardcode values right in the graph, or make them properties accessible from the Material Inspector. The nodes handle all the complex calculations once you provide the inputs they need.
What You Need to Know
This asset assumes you have basic familiarity with Shader Graph or Amplify Shader Editor. We won't teach you how to create graphs, connect nodes, or use these tools - there are excellent tutorials available:
Unity Shader Graph Tutorial: [Link to official Unity tutorial]
Chaining Node Effects Guide: See the next section for detailed examples of common node connection patterns
If you're new to visual shader editors, we recommend starting with those resources first, then returning here when you're ready to add professional effects to your shaders.
Amplify Shader Editor
If you don't own the asset you can get it here: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/visual-scripting/amplify-shader-editor-68570?aid=1101l52IjU
Amplify nodes will be available to you straight away with no setup. But if you want to check out a very simple Amplify Shader Demo with 3 examples you'll need to Import the "AmplifyShaderEditorCompatibility.unitypackage" in the root of the asset:
The workflow is essentially identical in Amplify Shader Editor. All 60+ nodes are available in the node menu:
The same principles apply - search for the effect you need, drag it into your graph, and connect it. All the complex calculations are handled internally by each node.
Demo Examples
The best way to learn is by example. The asset includes numerous demo graphs showing real-world usage of the nodes. You'll find them at:
Assets\Plugins\AllIn1ShaderNodes\Demo\Graphs
These graphs demonstrate common effect combinations, proper node connections, and practical setups you can reference or duplicate for your own projects.
