Depth FX Pro — AI Cinematic Parallax & Weather Shader + Pixel-art Backgrounds Bundle

📘 Depth FX Pro – AI Cinematic Parallax & Weather Shader

Transform flat images into living, cinematic backgrounds. Depth FX Pro combines an integrated AI depth generator, advanced parallax/camera presets, procedural weather systems and a flexible screen-space FX stack — all controlled from a polished custom Inspector.

Generate high-quality 16-bit depth maps from any image using the integrated Python MiDaS generator (one-click dependency installer in the Inspector; installs CPU torch by default). Perfect for pixel-art games, cinematic backgrounds, UI motion, cutscenes and ambient visuals. You can also apply the shader to 3D objects to create dynamic textured surfaces.

🎯 Why you’ll love it

• Save days of manual depth painting — generate accurate 16-bit depth maps automatically using MiDaS via Python.
• Fast, repeatable cinematic motion with 27 built-in presets (2.5D, deform & wave types).
• Build atmosphere quickly: layered fog, rain, snow, aurora and falling foliage, fully parameterized.
• Use on pixel-art or high-res backgrounds — includes 55 optimized pixel backgrounds + depth maps.
• Easy to use — one-click dependency installer and automatic import/assign workflow in the Inspector.

🌌 Highlights

• AI Depth Generator (MiDaS via Python / torch) — 16-bit outputs for smooth parallax. Local, offline AI — no data sent.
• 27 animation presets for immediate cinematic results.
• Procedural Weather: Rain, Snow, Aurora, Rainbow, Fog, Leaves.
• Screen-Space FX: Chromatic Aberration, Glitch, Dither, Light Rays, Film Grain, Dissolve, Warp, Glass Distortion, Random Shake.
• Full editor GUI: colorized foldouts, Test Python button, auto-assign _DepthMap, undo support.
• Cross-pipeline support: Built-in / URP / HDRP (Unity 2021.3.45f2+).

📦 What’s included

• Shader: Feony_Depth_Animation_FX.shader
• Editor: DepthAnimationFXfeonyGUI.cs (Inspector)
• Utility scripts: install_dependencies.py, depth_map.py
• Example scripts: CameraArrowMover.cs (or wasd), MouseRepelControllerFeony.cs
• 3D Demo model + 6 already configured materials for Stylized toon surfaces
• 55 pixel-art backgrounds + sample depth maps + 55 already configured materials
• 3 leaf textures + color variants
• Full PDF documentation + Tools README

🧩 System requirements

• Unity 2021.3.45 LTS or higher
• Python 3.9+ (for optional depth generation)
• pip; optional GPU (CUDA) torch wheels for acceleration

🚀 Quick start

1. Import package → create material using Depth FX Pro.
2. (Optional) Tools → Install Python Dependencies (opens terminal).
3. Set depth_map.py path once in Inspector.
4. Assign _MainTex — inspector auto-generates <name>_depth.png and assigns _DepthMap.

🧠 Ai Depth Generator:

The Python-based depth generator optionally uses open-source AI model (MiDaS by Intel ISL, MIT License) for optional offline depth map generation.

Source: https://github.com/isl-org/MiDaS

MIT License: https://github.com/isl-org/MiDaS/blob/master/LICENSE

The model runs locally, offline, and is used only for pre-processing.

No AI inference occurs inside Unity, and no user data is collected or transmitted.
