Toon shading model

[Mewbits]

Is there a 4.25 version of this? If so where does one get it?

[Imagine-Games]

i think you should apply for a dev grant, this sounds like something that would be so beneficial to the entire community!

does it work with unreal latest version

[Starkium]

is 4.22 available yet? tried using kusogaki version on 4.22 and I keep getting this error?

Hey everyone,

I made a previous comment about android, and while I wait for a 4.21 + build, I am still working on my game. I upversioned to the 4.18 build, and I am now getting this error on the toon material



As you can see, I don't even have anything plugged into the shader and I'm still getting the issue, but I get the same issue when things are plugged in as well. The error implies something is wrong on the engine side? I'm not an engine programmer so I'm not sure and would appreciate any form of help as it doesn't seem like too big an issue and I just lack the knowledge to fix it.

I would like to add this is only a problem when it comes to android builds, which is what my game is on. Every previous version of the toon shader worked fine on android until now.

Forward rendering is a no go currently.

Is it a technical reason or something else ?

When are you planning to release it? I''m itching to try! Will forward rendering work with this?

Sorry I didn't see this post. Forward rendering is a no go currently. I probably wont have this available until after Ira launches.

Hey everyone. It's about the time again to ask for a new engine version, but doubley important because I'm making a mobile game and the Google Play console requires you to build using API 26 which requires Unreal 4.21 or higher

Hey everyone, I'm one of the creators of Ira. We've used the toon shader model for a long time but wanted to move over to a system that use the base engine. Over the last few years I've been developing a way to do everything the Toon shader model does but natively.

After a lot of work I've recreated the toon shader model via post process in a way that I have not seen anyone do before. It does everything the Toon shader model does with some minor limitations, and I've overcome the major road blocks. Such as lack of fog, bloom, multiple shading models on screen at once, and multiple colored light contributions. I've even tied it all into a visual style actor that makes things very easy to implement and use. Basically all the main things that stopped us from using the post process route in the past have been overcome. I'd like to offer my system on the UE4 asset store and I was wondering if any would be interested in such an asset? I just know there are a lot of people like us out there that need the toon shaders functionality, but don't want to compile a custom engine build, worry about future support down the road, or have to deal with hacky material systems that are hard to use / are full of limitations. I'm open to hear people's thoughts or questions on this.

Here are some pictures of the shader in action.

Thanks for the input. I'll keep that in mind .

Please don't race to the bottom. Sell it at what you think it worth.

YES!! I'd buy this on an instant! When can we expect this to be available?

Sorry about this question but it is possible to update on 4.21 ?? Thank you..

This looks awesome if it was cheap like under 30 bucks I would buy it for sure

Looking sweet. If it works natively and supports most standard rendering features, offers ink outlines (or work with any decent existing ink outline assets from the Marketplace), works in VR (mobile and desktop), works with forward shading - it will be on my immediate "to-buy" list !!!!

Yes to all of those things except I have not done any tests with forward rendering. I'll add that to my list though.
