Visit resource ↗Description
URP_ShaderGraphCustomLighting is Cyanilux's MIT GitHub package of Shader Graph sub-graphs for Universal Render Pipeline lighting in node-based shaders.
Nodes cover main-light direction, shadows, cookies, light layers, diffuse, and specular, plus an additional-lights loop with Forward+ support, shadowmask and subtractive GI helpers, and fog at the master stack.
Intermediate URP authors use it for custom lighting models. The README shows editing the additional-lights loop for toon variants, swapping Lambert and specular helpers for custom logic.
Install via Package Manager git URL or copy into Assets. Main targets URP 17.1+ on Unity 6000.1+; older Unity builds use other branches. Nested sub-graphs may need keywords copied into each graph blackboard.
Examples include toon cel shading and a shadow receiver material. Hundreds of GitHub stars; often listed with Cyanilux URP tutorials.
