Easy Portal - Blender Shader [Free]
Added 2024-06-12 12:11:42 +0000 UTCYou'll get a blend file with 2 collections: '1 Way Portal' and '2 Ways Portal'.
The easiest and most powerful way to create portals in Blender!
You can also use it to create other cool effects:
1. Add compositor-like camera effects (blur, distort, custom bokeh, etc.)
2. Create screens that show what the paired portals capture
Etc.
Demo (file included):
How to use:
Check out the demo file to see how it's used!
The blend file has 2 collections, you can append either of them to your project:
- '2 Ways Portal' - it's the classical portal
- '1 Way Portal' - it's used to capture the image from one portal and display it inside the other portal (more like a camera and screen)
The portals have Geometry Nodes modifiers with editable options. You can also edit each portal material by adjusting the Easy Portal shader node. If you don't know what an input does, it may have a tooltip. Just hover over it for the tooltip to appear. Not all inputs have tooltips, only the less intuitive ones.
You can even add the 2 collections to the Asset Browser to easily drag and drop portals to your projects.
Although not required, I really appreciate it if you give credit!
