Built-in Effect

The engine provides a set of common built-in shaders, located in the internal -> effects directory of the Assets panel of the editor. Double-click a shader file to open it in an external IDE for viewing and editing (provided that Default Script Editor needs to be configured in Preferences -> External Programs).

Creator roughly categorizes built-in shaders into the following categories:

• internal：Internal functionality shaders, such as In-editor gizmo, geometry renderer. Users generally do not need to pay attention to these.
• pipeline：Pipeline effects shaders, including deferred lighting, post-effects, anti-aliasing, and more.
• util：Holds some loose built-in shaders, such as dcc material importing and sequence frame animations. Users generally do not need to pay attention to these.
• for2d：2D rendering shaders, such as spine and sprite.
• particles：Particle effect shaders.
• advanced：Advanced material with surface shader, such as water, skin, hair, jade.
• Others are built-in shaders, please refer to the description below for details.
