This includes 2261 presets (many are identical except for colors).
Thank you to and for help with shader bricks!

These were automatically generated using and were generated with one of the attached shader networks depending on whether the provided material uses a cutout.
If you have suggestions for improving the shader networks, I would love to hear them!

I have added support for adding a user specified cutout (recommended by ), but adding a cutout forces the material to be "Thin Walled" and so does not work as expected with all materials. I have not found a way to determine if a material is thin walled while generating the presets (other than if it already uses a cutout), so for some materials you must enable cutouts via an additional option.
