Setting the Skin material

you can create a new material and drag skin texture and normal map in normal map slot.

Once the material is created you can chose the material shader for skin from built in unity standard, custom shader or SineWave skin shader.

SineWave Skin Shader

• Main Color - Sets the overall color of the skin.
• Specular Color - Tints specular highlights of the skin.
• Shininess - Sets the shine amount of the skin.
• Rim Power - how rim lighting spreads around the edges of the model.
• Rim HDR - Adds a boost to rim lighting, to enable it push into HDR values (i.e. Brighter than white) for bloom.
• Normal Power - controls power of normal map (allowing them to be more/under represented)
• Tessellation - allows DX11 Tessellation which smooth's geometry when camera is up close.
• Specular Amount - Sets the specular amount.
• Gloss Amount - Sets how glossy the skin should look.
• Smoothness - controls specular highlights on PBR platforms (higher = tighter highlights), correlates with Standard shader.
• Occlusion - controls ambient occlusion.
• Loading color - For internal use. PLEASE IGNORE THIS SETTING.
