Overview
NGSSEB, or Next-Gen Screen-Space Edge-Bevel, is a camera command buffer effect that smooths the look of geometry edges. Perfect for detached geometry such as CAD or ArchViz models or any model that requires a real-time soldering touch.
Highlights:
- Super-optimized and fast, adjustable quality levels
- Smooth look, perfect for scenes composed of models that need this edgy attached/soldering look
- Per material masking, it is possible to disable the effect on any material
- Plug and play; it does not require any asset modification; just drag the script to your main camera, and voila!
- Compatible with any built-in shader (custom or not), works only with deferred rendering
- AR/VR/XR single-pass and multi-pass support
Install:
- Just drag the script to your main camera and tweak the properties to suit your project quality needs
Notes:
- It does not work with Forward rendering
- There’s no normal map masking; gbuffer gets completely filtered but future versions will provide per-object masking to fine-tune edge bevels
- If you are targeting mobile, don’t go crazy with the quality; it is recommended on powerful devices only
Future:
- Improvements to the algorithm (better edge detection)
- Screen space masking (per-object/per-pixel masking)
- SRP ports (HDRP and URP planned for late 2020)
