@LukaszBorges @BlitzPlum The fun part is when you want to use multiple directions at once - I've got an RGB data map with 0-0.5 being reserve for negative XYZ, and 0.5-1 positive XYZ. This then gets fed through way too many nodes to get differently angled highlights throughout the asset.

@SeleDreamsFR @SPEEPSHighway @BlitzPlum In the Maya/Blender versions, the only performance hit is reading the camera rotation and feeding that into the mouth offset. Without moving the designated camera, it runs in realtime - I imagine we'll find a way to optimise this for Unity when the time comes.

@JustVriska @BlitzPlum Hi! Your first port of call would be playing around with plugging a diffuse shader into a ramp with no interpolation, might need to be converted first using a shadertoRGB node. This particular setup uses the normals converted to camera space, which gets the highlights to follow.
