    Hey guys,
    does anybody know if there is a shader I can use to generate distortion/refraction effect?
    I need to show heat coming from the engine.

    I've tried Unity's stained glass shader which does work perfectly in the editor but messes up the scene when run on mobile. It goes really wrong, some meshes disappear/appear chaotically and randomly

    Thank you

    Try Importing the standard assets Effects and use the
    "FX/Glass/Stained BumpDistort"

    I am looking for the same thing , FX/Glass/Stained BumpDistort" is pretty much useless on mobile due to huge performance hit.
