Miscellaneous shader work that I got to do for Ruined King as part of the liveliness pass! I set up a shader to handle different types of sinusoidal movement (top/bottom, left/right, center/out) and used that to drive ambient movement for foliage and cloth in scenes.

Additional code support was provided by Ben Rog-Wilhelm, our graphics programmer, who set up our mesh merging system and encoded mesh information (local mesh data prior to merging) that I needed into a separate UV channel, so meshes could still animate as though individual meshes without incurring the high mesh and draw count that would have come from having thousands of individual meshes.
