[Solved] Shader for transparent material of animated model?

[tipforeveryone]

My character has a helmet with an plastic glass (it is transparent)

 

I don't find any shader which can be applied for animated model with transparent material.

There is transparent.shader in Shaders/Models folder but can't use for animated mesh

 

please show me how to animate a transparent element of character

Take a look at the non-animated transparent shader. In the fragment shader part, you will see a like that looks like this:

 

if (icoord.x%2 == icoord.y%2) discard;

 

This line will make the mesh transparent. I think I saw some randomization factor to allow for overlapping transparent surfaces, but I don't remember it, and I don't think it was enabled anyway.

There is some commented code int he shader, but it only looks decent if a lot of MSAA is applied. I hope this get's addressed at some point.

Thanks for your replies, I dont have much knowledge about shader programing.. so that can anyone write this shader ? It should be useful !

This should do it, didn't test it, but should work.

Thanks it works this will be nice if it is in workshop

You can also different degrees of transparency, only looks decent if you apply FXAA

 

 

//mode 1..5, 1=solid, 5 almost invisible
void TransparencyFilter(int mode)
{
   {
       int ix = int(mod((int(gl_FragCoord.x+0.5)),mode)+0.5);
       int iy = int(mod((int(gl_FragCoord.y+0.5)),mode)+0.5);
       if (ix!=iy) discard;
   }
}
