The Best Darn Grid Shader (Yet) - For as long as I’ve been writing shaders, there’s been one specific shader I’ve always tried to write. And I’ve always failed at it for reason I could never fully understand. I’d wait a few years and try again with my new level of knowledge, get closer, and fail again. That goal? To make a grid shader that mimics, but looks better than, a texture based grid.

Custom SRP 2.2.0 Camera Textures - In the previous tutorial we used renderer lists to draw geometry, which allowed the render graph to cull passes that had nothing to draw. This time we will do something similar with render textures. We will rely on the render graph to provide and manage texture handles for us, instead of explicitly allocating render textures ourselves. This allows the graph to reuse texture memory when possible and potentially cull more passes.

George Broussard interview - If you’re exclusively an adventure gaming diehard, the name might not immediately strike a chord. But for fans of 90s action games, George Broussard is a living legend. Among his many notable career accomplishments, he’s the co-founder of Apogee Software and its subsidiary 3D Realms, a key player in the shareware movement, and perhaps most famously, the co-creator/designer of the iconic Duke Nukem series.
