250503 fur shaders

I had fun creating and playing around with this fur shader and hope you will too.

Follow the instructions for the Custom Shader Loader to load the fur effect on any clothing item. The fur is generated from the 'Specular' texture of the clothing item. I have included a bunch of sample textures you can use in this slot - when selecting a specular texture, browse to AddOnPackages and into the "prestigitis.asset-250503_fur_shaders.1.var" package. Then look in the "Custom/Assets/prestigitis/250503 fur textures" folder.

The fur color comes from the clothing's 'Diffuse' texture and color, and opacity is from the 'Alpha' texture. The other usual settings don't do anything. Instead, additional fur settings are in the plugin menu, under "Plugins → Regguise.CustomShaderLoader → Open Custom UI".

I also included a "lite" version that renders fewer shells when you want to save on compute. There are some known issues with certain lighting conditions and rendering fur in front of other transparent objects (e.g., other fur clothing items) that can sometimes be resolved by changing the render queue.

250519 and 250520 boas

In case you want to check out the fur shader with minimal setup, this clothing package 250519 includes two fur boas - 250519 is draped over the elbows and 250520 is around the neck. The fur effect should load automatically if you have the Clothing Plugin Manager and Custom Shader Loader plugins installed in your AddOnPackages folder.

This my first time making a shader package like this, so please tell me if you run into any problems.

I'd love to see all the creative looks you will come up with, so please tag me if you post screenshots on Discord or elsewhere!
