Generated Code Example

The following example code represents one possible outcome of this node per Output Space mode.

Tangent

void Unity_NormalFromHeight_Tangent(float In, out float3 Out)
{
    float3 worldDirivativeX = ddx(Position * 100);
    float3 worldDirivativeY = ddy(Position * 100);
    float3 crossX = cross(TangentMatrix[2].xyz, worldDirivativeX);
    float3 crossY = cross(TangentMatrix[2].xyz, worldDirivativeY);
    float3 d = abs(dot(crossY, worldDirivativeX));
    float3 inToNormal = ((((In + ddx(In)) - In) * crossY) + (((In + ddy(In)) - In) * crossX)) * sign(d);
    inToNormal.y *= -1.0;
    Out = normalize((d * TangentMatrix[2].xyz) - inToNormal);
    Out = TransformWorldToTangent(Out, TangentMatrix);
}

World

void Unity_NormalFromHeight_World(float In, out float3 Out)
{
    float3 worldDirivativeX = ddx(Position * 100);
    float3 worldDirivativeY = ddy(Position * 100);
    float3 crossX = cross(TangentMatrix[2].xyz, worldDirivativeX);
    float3 crossY = cross(TangentMatrix[2].xyz, worldDirivativeY);
    float3 d = abs(dot(crossY, worldDirivativeX));
    float3 inToNormal = ((((In + ddx(In)) - In) * crossY) + (((In + ddy(In)) - In) * crossX)) * sign(d);
    inToNormal.y *= -1.0;
    Out = normalize((d * TangentMatrix[2].xyz) - inToNormal);
