About Shiny SSR 2 - Screen Space Reflections

  • Art & Visuals > VFX
Real-time screen space reflections that make your scenes look more realistic - with fine-grained control over quality and performance, no manual probe setup required.

This bundle contains 2 packages optimized per pipeline:
- Shiny SSR for Built-in pipeline.
- Shiny SSR for URP (Universal Rendering Pipeline).

Both packages offer the same functionality and support forward and deferred rendering path.

Demo: Windows | Mac | Android

** Key features **

• Global intensity slider plus deep customization.
• Contact hardening - sharper near reflections, with customizable distance-based fuzziness and decay.
• Physically based reflections in deferred (fresnel, smoothness, energy conservation), also compatible with forward.
• Spatio-temporal filter and specular controls for flicker-free, shimmer-free reflections.
• True per-object depth computation.
• Realistic/specular or "dark" reflections (dark ones look like shadows and are even faster).
• Detailed raymarching settings.
• Compatible with Unity 2022.3 and Unity 6 (including Unity 6.4 and Render Graph), with VR Single Pass Instanced / Multiview support.

** Per-path control (the Shiny difference) **

• Forward / Forward+: override global raytracing settings per object for unmatched control and performance. Apply reflections only to specific objects - by group, layer, name filter or even specific submeshes.
• Deferred: leverages gbuffers for even more accurate physically based reflections using per-pixel normals and smoothness, independent of scene objects.
• Combine both paths in one scene, reflecting over deferred and forward objects together (e.g. puddles - a puddle example is included in demo scene 1).

** Water & transparent surfaces **

• Screen Space Normals for transparent pixels read smooth normals so SSR reflects correctly on water and glass, in both forward and deferred.
• Reflections work on transparent water shaders like Crest, with screen-space normals in both forward and deferred.
• Depth Prepass with its own layer mask renders the depth of selected transparent objects so rays can hit them during ray-marching.
• Smoothness slider to tune reflection sharpness on transparent surfaces.

** Skybox & reflection sources **

· New "Shiny SSR Skybox Reflection Source" component: reuse a Reflection Probe's cubemap, or anchor the Automatic Cubemap bake to a fixed position.

The asset includes a demo scene and documentation.
