Trying to make Toon Shader Material on UE4

Whats I changed is that I’m now Multiplying the number of bands first then ceiling it, then finally dividing to the number of band again. What that does is it intensify the light (Darkening in in darker places and lighting it in lighter places) before it gets Ceiled, and after that it get divided to tone down the brightness of the bands.

If you use a ceil this will only intensify the light; it wont make it darker in darker places. It will still result in the distinct bands though, which is the effect you are after.

It’s quite common to use a ramp texture instead of using ceil (see eg here: TF2 Shading in UT3 tutorial - Unreal Tournament 3 - ModDB look at the section labelled ‘ramp’)
