New page

Seamless is a powerful graph builder integrated in the Unity Editor. It allows

you to bake beautiful procedural textures from noise or geometric primitives,

coupled with mathematical operations, image filters, etc.

Seamless works natively with any render pipeline on any Unity version above

2018.1.
[[File:SeamlessLogo.png|thumb|366x366px|The Seamless logo. Fun-fact: it was created with the tool itself]]

== Setup ==
The whole package is contained in the Seamless folder resulting from the import. You can move it wherever you want, but it is recommended to keep the same folder structure.

== Basics ==
You can create a new Seamless graph from the right-click context menu in the project window.

[[File:Seamless MAN1.png|frameless|330x330px]]

Each graph is saved as a SeamlessObject in a <code>.asset</code> file. You can recognize

them with the seamless logo. You can change the texture size from the inspector.

[[File:Seamless MAN2.png|frameless]]

You can open a graph by double-clicking on it. On Unity 2019.2 and above, the window will try dock itself next to the scene window, otherwise it will appear as a floating window, that you can dock manually.

== Navigation ==
The navigation in the main canvas is similar to other graph editors such as Shadergraph or the animator. You can zoom in/out using scroll wheel, move by click & drag on the mouse scroll wheel. Nodes can be selected by clicking on it, or by drawing a selection rectangle. You can drag selected nodes to move them.

You cannot select or interact with links : they are 100% visual. To add a link, you must click and drag from an output, links cannot be created backwards. To remove a link you must remove one of the nodes it connect, or connect another link to the same output node. There is a header on the top of each window containing information and buttons to save, save as, and reload the graph.
[[File:Seamless MAN3.png|border|center|frameless|725x725px]]To create a new node, just right click on the canvas and a context menu will appear. You can also start building a link and releasing the mouse left button in a free space, the same context menu will appear and the link will be associated with the first input (if there is any) of the added node. You can cancel by pressing ESC twice.
[[File:Seamless MAN4.png|border|center|frameless|724x724px]]

Some nodes contain one or several parameters. You can change their value as a text edit or as a slider with the mouse.

Once you are happy with a result, you can export it as a static image using an Export node. You can use as many Export nodes as you want. So far, Seamless only supports PNG export.
[[File:Seamless MAN5.png|border|center|frameless|561x561px]]
You can browse the path by clicking on the Folder icon. Make sure you select a path included in the Assets folder of your project.

== Nodes list ==
[[File:Seamless Primitive Nodes.png|thumb|770x770px|All the primitive nodes]]

=== Preview ===

=== Add ===
Adds A and B channel-wise. Clamps automatically between 0 and 1.

=== Subtract ===
Subtracts A and B channel-wise.

===Hash (since version 3.1)===
Perform a hashing of the input channel-wise. Simple way to randomize the input.

===Blur===
Applies Gaussian Blur to the input, using a float radius and an integer steps number parameters.

===EdgeDetection===
Performs the input’s edge detection. You can adjust the steps number in pixels.

===Normal===
Computes normal map from a given heightmap. Only the red channel of the input is considered. You can adjust the strength of the normal effect with a float parameter.

===Barrel===
Applies Barrel Distortion algorithm to the input. The power is controlled by a float parameter.

===Spherize===
Maps the input on a sphere.

===Curvature===
Computes the curvature of the input. Useful for ambient occlusion estimation.

===Luminance (since version 3.1)===

===TilingOffset===
Tiles and/or offsets the input following the given parameters.

===Rotate===
Rotates the input of the given angle in degrees.

===HFlip===
Flips the input horizontally.

===VFlip===
Flips the input vertically.

===Splatter (since version 3.0)===
Splatters an Input following a grid size and randomizes its local position, rotation and scale following the entered parameters.

===Warp (since version 3.0)===
Warps an Input following to the given direction : Red channel for horizontal warp and green channel for vertical. Direction's blue and alpha channels are ignored. The intensity can be controlled with the Multiplier parameter.

===Split===
Splits the 4 channels of the input into 4 B&W outputs.

===Merge===
Creates a RGBA output from 4 inputs. Only the red channel of each input is considered.

===Color===
Outputs a uniform color determined by a color picker.

===RenderTexture===
Outputs the given RenderTexture. If the render texture size is different than the one defined in the graph settings, the input texture will appear bigger/smaller accordingly on the children nodes. 

===Squircle===
Creates a squircle according to the given parameters.

===RoundedRect===
Creates a rounded rectangle. Useful for capsule too.

===Polygon===
Creates a polygon according to the given parameters

===Noise===
Creates tileable IQ noise according to the given parameters.

===Voronoi===
Creates tileable voronoi noise according to the given parameters. Additionnal corollary outputs are also provided.

===FractalNoise (since version 2.0)===
Creates a tileable fractal IQ Noise according to the given parameters. Supports up to 8 octaves.

===FractalWarp (since version 2.0)===
Creates a tileable fractal warp based on IQ Noise according to the given parameters. Supports up to 8 octaves.

===Export===
Let the user export a PNG image from the input. The image will have the same size as in the graph settings. If you export a normal map, don’t forget to apply the right import settings, Seamless won’t do it automatically.

== Tips and tricks ==
=== Make an existing picture seamlessly tileable ===
Seamless main use case is procedural texture generation, but you can also use existing pictures and make them tileable thanks to the Splatter node. Here is how:

* Create a CustomRenderTexture and sets its Initialization and update modes on OnLoad or Realtime according to your needs, and set your custom picture in the initialization texture field.

* Make sure the CustomRenderTexture is the same size than the graph you want to use it in.

* Create a new SeamlessGraph.

* Add a RenderTexture node and plug the CustomRenderTexture.
* Multiply it with a 0.5 falloff, 32 sided polygon to fade the borders. Also, you should dim the result with the multiplier parameter to avoid overexposure later.

* Plug it as a Splatter node Input. As long as you keep low scales (lower than 3), the output is guaranteed to be tileable. For higher scales, some seams may appear, or not, it depends on your input picture.
* You can play with different parameters to fit your needs.[[File:Non Tileable to tileable.png|thumb|750x750px|This simple graph turns a non tileable picture to a tileable one.|center]]

== Troubleshooting ==

=== The node preview looks brighter than usual ===
You are probably using linear color space instead of gamma. Don't worry, the textures will contain exactly the same data, it is just displayed differently on the screen.

Legacy RP use gamma color space by default while URP and HDRP use linear by default.

You can switch the color space in <code>Edit->Project Settings->Player->Other Settings</code> but be careful, if will change the visual aspect of your whole game.

=== All my nodes turned gray when I opened the graph ===
You probably left the graph's tab for a while and Unity unloaded the render textures to save up memory. Click on the reload button.

=== The preview material is pink ===
This issue can happen when switching scenes. Try to re-open the graph.

=== The preview material looks overexposed and unlit when the metallic value goes below 1 ===
This is a know issue in HDRP only. With a merge node, set a color whose green channel equals 0 in the occlusion slot (the actual occlusion is controlled by the red channel).

=== The preview material displays the normal map in the wrong way ===
Make sure your normal map alpha channel is not 0. Otherwise, the standard shader will try to unpack an already unpacked normal map.
