Complete Rain Shader - UE4 Materials 101 - Episode 18
In this episode, we put all of the rain effects from episode 13 - 17 together and create a complete rain shader. We're using our wetness, drops, drips, ripples, and puddles - all wrapped up together into a single function that can be added to any material. The rain function includes parameters for controling how heavily it's raining, how strong the wind is blowing, how wet everything should look, and how large the puddles should be.
If you're watching this episode before watching my previous videos, please go back and work through previous episodes first so that you'll understand all of the concepts that we're combining here.
As many of you have had trouble converting the rain drips and rain drops shaders into materials functions, here are screen shots of the two functions that I created for the drips and drops:
