Getting Depth for Tessellated and Translucent Material

Why you can’t use depth fade? Can you use SceneDepth and manually calculate fade?

You can’t use SceneDepth in a domain/hull shader.

If your landscape heightmap can fit in a 4k texture, then you could use the same technique Epic used in the Kite demo. They even have a handy material function called Landscape_Intersection_Blend that you could use in conjunction with the ActorPositionWS node.

This is brilliant; I’ll give this a shot.
