Shader Graph Baker

Introduction

Shader Graph Baker is the editor and runtime tool for baking Unity’s Shader Graph nodes output into a texture file(s). Useful for creating procedural, gradient, noise or custom effect textures, generating normal and other types of maps, optimizing shader by replacing a complex set of static nodes with just a texture, creating frame atlases, generating image sequences, Texture2DArray and Texture3D assets.

Exporting texture created by the set of complex nodes
