I have a water shader here and I want to know what code is responsible for transparency.
Currently the water is transparent, that is the other thing i would like to change. I hoped the RenderType is "RenderType"="transparent" but it is "RenderType"="Opaque" .... and i couldn't find transparent code in this shader.
Maybe you know the parts of the code causes the transparency?
This is the water shader
Shader "FX/Water" {

_WaveScale ("Wave scale", Range (0.02,0.15)) = 0.063
_ReflDistort ("Reflection distort", Range (0,1.5)) = 0.44

WaveSpeed ("Wave speed (map1 x,y; map2 x,y)", Vector) = (19,9,-16,-7)
[NoScaleOffset] _ReflectiveColor ("Reflective color (RGB) fresnel (A)", 2D) = "" {}
_HorizonColor ("Simple water horizon color", COLOR) = ( .172, .463, .435, 1)

The #pragma multi_compile WATER_REFRACTIVE WATER_REFLECTIVE WATER_SIMPLE
line allows the script to have different modes depending on global configuration. From the documentation:
How multi_compile works
Example directive:
#pragma multi_compile FANCY_STUFF_OFF FANCY_STUFF_ON
This example directive produces two shader variants: one with FANCY_STUFF_OFF defined, and another with FANCY_STUFF_ON. At run time, Unity activates one of them based on the Material or global shader keywords. If neither of these two keywords are enabled, then Unity uses the first one (in this example, FANCY_STUFF_OFF).
So in the case of this question, WATER_REFRACTIVE
is enabled by default.
If you look at the fragment shader, you'll see this #ifdefined
section:
#if defined(WATER_REFRACTIVE)
half fresnel = UNITY_SAMPLE_1CHANNEL( _Fresnel,
float2(fresnelFac,fresnelFac) );
color = lerp( refr, refl, fresnel );
#endif
To answer your immediate question, the transparency effect is where the refractive color refr
is visible over the reflective color refl
, which is determined by the _Fresnel
and _BumpMap
textures.
You could make the water totally reflective by changing the shader here to just use color = refl;
instead.
However, another way of doing it starts with changing the mode of the shader by using Material.EnableKeyword
on the water's Material
to enable the WATER_SIMPLE
keyword:
water.material.EnableKeyword("WATER_SIMPLE");
Doing this will use this #ifdefined
section in the vertex shader instead of the previously mentioned one:
#if defined(WATER_SIMPLE)
half4 water = tex2D( _ReflectiveColor, float2(fresnelFac,fresnelFac) );
color.rgb = lerp( water.rgb, _HorizonColor.rgb, water.a );
color.a = _HorizonColor.a;
#endif
and we can see that it sets the output color's alpha as _HorizonColor.a
. This means that with this mode, you would be able to set the water's transparency directly by changing the alpha of _HorizonColor
