shader to bevel, round, the edges of block objects?
Shader dudes - is there a shader which will bevel the edges and corners of a simple box mesh?
So, you would simply use plain 12-tri cubes or rectangles, but the shader will bevel the edges.
thanks!
feel free to alternately pickup "SO" points ...

If I could I'd give +100 on this post... been looking for this for more than a year!!!! Because in real life, with the exception of all-u-$$anonymous$$i-um apple products, there are no hard edges. :) Any real solutions, @Fattie?
Hi Greg - I'm totally with you. I'm just sort of "stunned" there is no real solution to this!
consider ...http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25105571/unity3d-shader-to-bevel-round-edges-of-a-cube
and note the Relief Shaders ...

maybe it helps, I'm not sure...
another rather pointless QA here ....
Have you'sall seen this thread
Great work on the link, I had not seen it Not much info, but it's something. I"m not sure if what Nicholas says there is relevant in the specific case of a 12-tri cube; of course, you "know precisely where" the edges are - every single join is an edge :) I'm talking very specifically about a shader only for such "blocks"... I'll direct those folks to this question too!
$$anonymous$$y other link seems to have disappeared :P
To recap in a nutshell, implement this in Blender, use Export to GLSL, convert GLSL to CG and paste into CG section of shader. It could just work.
