Eevee SSS Translucency Shader

Basically, here’s the Eevee SSS (subsurface scattering) translucency method in a nutshell:

  • No translucency whatsoever
  • Subsurface scattering weight = 1
  • ‘Thickness’ shader input – to taste
  • SSS scale to taste
  • Raytraced transmission = off
  • Transparent shadows = off (for better performance)
