Unreal Engine – Multi Color Masking UE8222

Overview:

The same result as this pack offers can be achieved with the IF node albeit with a performance detriment as this pack uses pure arithmetic.

The reason why the the IF node is slow is that it creates a branch which is somewhat fine for the CPU as they are able to predict branching, however due to architectural differences the GPU literally is not capable of doing so, which causes a major slowdown as some cores do one set of instruction, some do another, and/or some do none which is horrible, which is why this approach is a lot better as it relies on mathematics which is what GPUs and CPUs are really good at.

Features:

• Absolutely performant! The functions do not use “if” nodes.
• Isolate the red, green, blue, yellow, magenta, cyan and alpha from a texture object or colour value.
• Isolate only red, or green, or blue, or yellow, or magenta, or cyan from a texture or colour value.
• Isolate any colour from a texture or colour value.
