Unity Products:Amplify Shader Editor/Weighted Blend
Weighted Blend Node
The Weighted Blend node outputs the result of an average sum of each one of its Layer values multiplied by their respective Weights. The amount of available layers is determined by the amount of channels given by the connection data type on the weights input.
P.e. a Vector4 is connected to the Weights Input, input ports Layer 1 through 4 will be made available and the resulting value will be ( Weights.x*Layer1 + Weights.y*Layer2 +Weights.z*Layer3 +Weights.w*Layer4 )/ (Weights.x + Weights.y + Weights.z + Weights.w ).
If Layers are of different types and have different channel amounts then a cast is done for each to match the one with the most amount of channels.
NOTE: Other types of blending are also available via the Summed Blend and Layered Blend nodes.
