Ladies, gentlemen and people who prefer to go by anything else, I present to you, what is quite possibly my finest work of shader code yet! I, thejinxedartist, also known as Folly, have added shadows to the fog!
OK, OK, enough with the fancy talk. But yes, I have spent quite a while re-writing the fog shader from scratch in its own shader, rather than as a custom function in shadergraph. I was planning to anyway as auto-generated code from node-based editors is generally not the fastest, but I also had no way to access lighting information where I needed it in order to add shadows. If anyone was wondering, in the raymarching loop, before I accumulate the fog density, I check if the point in space is in shadow using mainLight.shadowAttenuation.
Anyway, now that this whole thing is over, I can get back to- oh wait! The ambient sky light isn't working properly you say? Well, I can't just leave it unfinished, can I! Just leave me a few weeks and I'll have it done! (This is a joke, It'll only take 6 days ;)
[UPDATE]
So I forgot that I was rendering this at 512 samples for the screenshots and I was wondering why my my fps had dropped from ~250 to ~150 and so I spent a while adding every optimisation I could, and then I realized "Oh wait, why am I rendering this with 512 samples" so now its back to 64 samples and is running even faster.
