Distance Fields (Part 1) | 5-Minute Materials UE4/UE5

Today we're looking at an amazing property that can be accessed within materials in Unreal Engine called Distance Fields! Distance Fields can be used to create ripples in your water, blend surfaces together and to create SLIMES! There are some limitations with distance fields and you need to be careful about what emits distance fields and what doesn't, especially when you're using Dynamic Skylight/Distance Field Ambient Occlusion.
