如何做一个水面扭曲效果
如何做一个水面扭曲效果
本文参考教程，并加上自己的一些心得体会。所谓的扭曲效果，就是将给定的纹理贴图进行采样，并随着时间进行流动，使得每个点的采样路径不完全一样。为了做到这一点，首先我们需要一张flow map，用来保存每个点的采样方向，然后根据时间偏移：
float2 flowVector = tex2D(_FlowMap, i.uv);
float2 uv = i.uv + flowVector * _Time.y;
fixed4 col = tex2D(_MainTex, uv);
return col;
运行查看，发现随着时间推移，画面越来越细碎，这时我们需要让表现有个周期性，就是画面能够在一个周期回到初始的状态。
我们可以使用frac函数来对时间进行约束，使得周期控制在1秒：
float2 uv = i.uv + flowVector * frac(_Time.y);
这样画面总会在1s后回到初始的状态，但是会带来新的问题，就是回到初始状态是一个跳变的过程，会让画面闪一下：
为了解决这个问题，我们可以加上淡入淡出的效果来缓解这个过渡：
float progress = frac(_Time.y);
float2 uv = i.uv + flowVector * progress;
float w = 1 - 2 * abs(progress - 0.5);
fixed4 col = tex2D(_MainTex, uv) * w;
通过观察，我们发现这个淡入淡出是整个画面一起的，有些单调，可以让它们的步调稍稍不一致。因为我们的flow map只用了rg两个通道，这里可以再使用a通道来代表每个采样点的步调偏移（其实就是a通道放了一张noise map）：
float4 flowSample = tex2D(_FlowMap, i.uv);
float2 flowVector = flowSample.rg * 2 - 1;
float flowNoise = flowSample.a;
float progress = frac(_Time.y + flowNoise);
float2 uv = i.uv + flowVector * progress;
float w = 1 - 2 * abs(progress - 0.5);
fixed4 col = tex2D(_MainTex, uv) * w;
接下来，我们希望把单次扰动的效果进行叠加，同时使用两次扰动，当然两次扰动的步调是不同的，在时间上存在一个相位差。这里我们将其设置为0.5，使得上面w的权重之和为1：
float3 flowUVW(float2 uv, float offset)
{
float4 flowSample = tex2D(_FlowMap, uv);
float2 flowVector = flowSample.rg * 2 - 1;
float flowNoise = flowSample.a;
float progress = frac(_Time.y + flowNoise + offset);
uv = uv + flowVector * progress;
float w = 1 - 2 * abs(progress - 0.5);
return float3(uv, w);
}
fixed4 frag (v2f i) : SV_Target
{
float3 uvwa = flowUVW(i.uv, 0);
float3 uvwb = flowUVW(i.uv, 0.5);
fixed4 cola = tex2D(_MainTex, uvwa.xy) * uvwa.z;
fixed4 colb = tex2D(_MainTex, uvwb.xy) * uvwb.z;
return cola + colb;
}
但这样看上去周期重复的感觉很明显，为了淡化这种表现，我们可以再给uv加上偏移参数，让采样的uv需要过很久的时间才会重复：
uv = uv + float2(_UJump, _VJump) * (_Time.y - progress);
接下来，我们还可以给flow map加上tiling，加上参数控制uv随时间偏移的速度，控制从flow map中采样的方向向量强弱程度：
float progress = frac(_Time.y * _Speed + flowNoise + offset);
uv += flowVector * progress;
uv += float2(_UJump, _VJump) * (_Time.y - progress);
uv *= _Tiling;
另外，我们可以控制初始采样的偏移，使得当w达到峰值时，即采样权重最大时，对应的uv偏移到一个可以控制的位置：
uv += flowVector * (progress + _FlowOffset);
最后，我们为水面加上法线信息，这里使用了derivative map来计算水面的法线和高度信息。derivative map的ag通道保存了高度在两个切线方向上的导数，b通道保存了原始的高度。在此基础上还可以继续调制水面的高度，让其与flow map的方向向量强弱挂钩（流动越强，波浪越大，高度越大）。我们用flow map的b通道来保存这一信息，算出水面的高度：
float flowSpeed = flowSample.b * _FlowStrength;
float finalHeightScale = flowSpeed * _HeightScaleModulated + _HeightScale;
然后，我们的derivative map保存了高度在两个切线方向上的导数，在切线空间，高度对应的实际上是N法线这条轴，两个切线方向向量分别为(1, 0, x)，(0, 1, y)，那么叉乘即可得到法线为(-x, -y, 1)。
float3 flowNormal(float4 flowSample)
{
float3 normal = flowSample.agb;
normal.xy = -(normal.xy * 2 - 1);
normal.z = 1;
return normal;
}
float3 normala = flowNormal(tex2D(_DerivHeightMap, uvwa.xy)) * uvwa.z * finalHeightScale;
float3 normalb = flowNormal(tex2D(_DerivHeightMap, uvwb.xy)) * uvwb.z * finalHeightScale;
float3 normal = normalize(normala + normalb);
原教程用的surface shader，这里将其转成vert/frag shader，删去了没用的代码，得到最终的效果如下：
完整shader代码如下：
