Unity-HDRP-Opacity-Albedo-packer

In case you have a seperate opacity map and a base (diffuse/Albedo) map. You'd need to combine them into 1 to use the transparancy in the hdrp lit shader. This does that for you

Showcase

• Go from this

• To this

How to use

• place the script in an editor folder (doesn't have to because I wrapped it in Unity_Editor preprocessor directives)
• Make the albedo and opacity map readable/writable.
• Open me by going to Tools/Opacity Albedo Packer
• place the textures in the respective slots

• Make sure the opacity map has it's transparency properly set up (either set 'Alpha Source' to 'from grayscale' or to 'Input Texture Alpha')
• Either way your preview should show the transparent squares in the preview

• Hit Combine Textures.

• It'll create a new texture with 'combined' at the end.

• Place this texture in the 'base map' slot.
• Make sure alpha clipping is enabled in the material shader.
