PHOTOREALISTIC RENDERS.
Realtime Road in EEVEE
Moss in CYCLES
Snow (rough) in CYCLES
100% PROCEDURAL
All shaders are completely procedurally generated, which unlock new levels of flexibility and control.
Procedural shaders have no limit on the resolution. Render time and memory is NOT affected by how large the texture size gets.
REALTIME ROADS
The Asphalt Road and Bitumen Road shaders are not only extremely photo-realistic, they are optimized fully to be realtime. You can switch between Eevee and Cycles Render Engine and the shaders switch to the real-time or ray-traced version automatically.
MORE EEVEE…
Apart from the roads, most shaders in the pack have real-time versions. You can use them directly in Eevee or, for preview purposes before the final Cycles render.
So here are some quick render previews in CYCLES:
And yes, you can bend the mesh and it will align itself correctly all the time:
DISPLACEMENT
Get photo-realistic and sharp displacements out of box.
The shaders use a combination of micro-displacements, bump-mapping and vector-displacements where applicable.
