UUSL Textures

The Unified UNIGINE shader language (UUSL) unifies the way of using textures in shaders. You need to define the texture slot (unit number) in the material, initialize the texture in the shader's code and then use it.

Here is an example of using texture in the fragment shader's code:

UUSL
// Include the UUSL header file
#include <core/shaders/common/fragment.h>

// Initialize textures.
// You don't need to define texture slot (unit number)
// by using define directive
INIT_TEXTURE(0,TEX_DEPTH)
INIT_TEXTURE(1,TEX_NORMAL)
INIT_TEXTURE(2,TEX_ALBEDO)
INIT_TEXTURE(3,TEX_SHADING)

/* Input and output structures */

MAIN_BEGIN(FRAGMENT_OUT,FRAGMENT_IN)

	/* some code */

	GBuffer gbuffer = GBufferDefault();
	
	loadGBufferAlbedo(gbuffer, TEXTURE_OUT(TEX_ALBEDO),uv);
	loadGBufferShading(gbuffer, TEXTURE_OUT(TEX_SHADING),uv);
	loadGBufferNormal(gbuffer, TEXTURE_OUT(TEX_NORMAL),uv);

	/* some code */
MAIN_END
Warning
You should add a new line (press Enter) after closing the instruction.
