== Character Shaders ==

=== CLOTH ===
The '''CLOTH''' shader is the main shader used on character models, supporting anisotropic specular, environment cubes, and transparency.

=== ITEM ===
The '''ITEM''' shader is similar to the '''CLOTH''' shader, with added support for [[wikipedia:Emissivity|emission]], and isn't affected by the toon shading of [https://docs.divamodarchive.com/Games#:~:text=External%20Link-,Hatsune%20Miku%3A%20Project%20DIVA%20Mega%20Mix,-February%2013%2C%202020 Project DIVA Megamix].

=== SKIN ===
The '''SKIN''' shader adds [[wikipedia:Subsurface_scattering|Subsurface Scattering]] and a tint to the model edges to mimic real skin.

|Required
|-
|Normal Map

|Specular Map

=== HAIR ===
The '''HAIR''' shader is the most complex, requiring all four listed textures to display correctly. It also requires the mesh to have straight UV maps, with the anisotropic direction set to either `U` or `V`.

The Translucency map is multiplied by 0, and thus, does nothing visually. (Source: Samyuu). In Virtua Fighter 5 the Translucency map was used for simulating light transmission through thin parts of hair.

=== EYEBALL ===
The '''EYEBALL''' shader is used for character eyes, with parallax for the diffuse and specular texture. It does require the mesh geometry to have proper tangents to display correctly.

Like the SKIN shader, EYEBALL also uses [[wikipedia:Subsurface_scattering|Subsurface Scattering]].
{| class="wikitable"

|Diffuse Texture
|Required

|Specular Map

=== TIGHTS ===
The '''TIGHTS''' shader is designed to simulate the specific way light interacts with tights. The specular reflection is increased, the alpha component of ambient is used to add a facing effect around the edges, and the alpha component of emission is used to control shadow intensity. It requires a special transparency map.

Like the SKIN shader, TIGHTS also uses [[wikipedia:Subsurface_scattering|Subsurface Scattering]].

== Stage Shaders ==

=== BLINN ===
The '''BLINN''' shader is one of the most basic shaders in the game, affected by the STAGE lighting settings and emission. '''NOTE:''' For best results, you should set ''Lambert shading'' to ''True'', ''Phong shading'' to ''True,'' and ''Per Pixel shading'' to ''True''. (Source: korenkonder)

|Environment Cube

=== STAGE ===
The '''STAGE''' is primarily used for stages in game, with support for baked lighting, and will be affected by the STAGE lighting settings. '''NOTE:''' Any material using the '''STAGE''' shader should set ''Lambert shading'' to ''True'', and ''Phong shading'' to ''False''. (Source: korenkonder)

!'''Texture Type'''

|-
|Diffuse Texture
|Required
|-
|Normal Map
|Optional
|-
|Specular Map

|-
|Environment Cube
|Optional
|}

=== FLOOR ===
The '''FLOOR''' stage is functionally the same as '''STAGE''', but supports real-time reflections. The strength of the reflection is controlled by the alpha component of specular. '''NOTE:''' Reflections for stages use a duplicated mesh, specified in the [[Stage Data]] database, and will render meshes with the ''_reflect'' suffix in the mesh name. Characters will also be reflected, but rendered with the '''SIMPLE''' shader, which degrades the visuals.

The '''PUDDLE''' shader is similar to '''FLOOR''', but with added support for ripples from the Rain [[Stage Effects|Stage Effect]].

The '''WATER01''' shader acts like water, with support for the Ripple and Splash [[Stage Effects|Stage Effect]].

=== SKY ===
The '''SKY''' shader is for skyboxes that specifically use YCbCr color formats for their textures.
