What is Backlace? 🎀

Backlace is a highly customizable and feature-rich anime shader for Unity and VRChat.

It's packed with a huge variety of features - from various lighting and specular models to visual effects like depth-rim and refraction. My goal with Backlace is to balance ease of use with deep customization, so you can create something truly unique without needing to be a shader expert.

Having Trouble? (Or Just Have Questions?)​

Please, don't ever hesitate to reach out to me! You can find all my contacts listed here. I would much rather help you create something amazing than have you struggle. If I don't get back to you immediately, I promise I'm not ignoring you, I'm probably just asleep >.< but I will always reply and help as much as I possibly can!

Notes​

With great power comes... the need to be mindful of performance! Backlace is packed with features, and while it's optimised, enabling a lot of complex effects at once can be demanding. This documentation will help you understand what each option does so you can create something stunning that runs beautifully for everyone. You've got this!
