Why use?

• When by default you export your Godot project, the pck file may be exposed to decompilation tools, and now your shaders may become obfuscated.
• Text obfuscation is commonly used to share shaders outside of Godot, which makes replication a bit more difficult.
• You can combine it with other tools or create more easy your own chunk loader, that is better than expose an intermediate code in the disk.
• It allows you to make your shader with inclusions in a single file to share without change the original code.

About this work

This plugin was created with great dedication and care. It's part of a suite of tools I've been developing for personal use, originally since the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you are one of those who have taken the time to help me find bugs or to continually suggest new features, I want you to know that I appreciate it.

Any other tools I already relase or will release can be found on my GitHub.

Aviable for Godot 3?

I originally worked with a focus on Godot 3.2, but the current versions focus on the last stables updates of Godot 4, although they are not limited to it, so there is a possibility that it will recognize Godot 3 by adding your own lock rules in the customization panel (I don't know how many people use Godot 3 today, that's why I prioritized Godot 4)
