Simple Blur

A super simple blur effect.

Use lod variable to regulate strength.

Shader code

shader_type canvas_item;

uniform float lod: hint_range(0.0, 5) = 0.0;

void fragment(){
	vec4 color = texture(SCREEN_TEXTURE, SCREEN_UV, lod);
	COLOR = color;
}

Anything that will cover the whole screen, so usually a ColorRect for example. This is because the shader in a screen shader, meaning it will use SCREEN_TEXTURE and SCREEN_UV

It should be “textureLod” instead of “texture” I believe.

“texture” also works for me.
