Does anyone know if it would be possible to create a shader that copies the 'shadow value' on another object (at the same UV position)?
I want to use this to fake refraction on an eye material.
What it should do is this:
- get UV coordinate from the pixel from object A
- sample the brightness on the corresponding pixel on object B.
- apply this brightness to the pixel on object A.
Basically this would allow me to steal the shadows from a normal object and apply it to a deformed object (faking distortion of the refraction).
I already have a fake raytraced reflection for my eye, together with a fake refraction it would be a superfast setup!
