Normal input on Main node blocked

11 years ago • updated by 11 years ago • 3

Hi, I 've just encountered a problem with a shader that used to work fine until I removed a lerp node that was used to blend between two normal values.

Now I am unable to reconnect the normal output from anywhere of my shader to the Normal Input of the Main node.

I 've sent you the shader via email to your address provided in the readme.

Now that I closed Unity Editor and reopened it I get an error message when trying to reload the shader in SF.

Incompatible types: Type A: VTv3 Type B: VTv1
UnityEngine.Debug:LogError(Object)
ShaderForge.SF_NodeConnector:LinkTo(SF_NodeConnector, LinkingMethod)
ShaderForge.SF_NodeConnector:LinkTo(SF_NodeConnector, LinkingMethod)
ShaderForge.SF_NodeConnector:TryMakeConnection()
ShaderForge.SF_NodeConnector:CheckConnection(SF_Editor)
ShaderForge.SF_Node:DrawConnections()
ShaderForge.SF_Editor:OnGUI()
UnityEditor.DockArea:OnGUI()

I am on the free version of Unity. The material inside the scene view gets displayed in black/unlit.
Same in SF preview.

I am still unable to connect the normal vector to the Normal input of the Main node. I'll recreate the shader and see if that issue can be reproduced.

I found the issue! The multi-add node has some broken logic causing it to output a pending type instead of a vector3. Thanks for the report :)

Ah ok. So in the meantime I'll fall back to using multiple add nodes as a workaround.
