Alternative to Camera Stacking

Hey,

in my FPS, i now use a secondary camera to prevent the weapon (and weapon fx) from clipping into walls.
This
a) prevents me from using LWRP or HDRP because cam stacking is gone
b) works pretty badly with post process effects that are on the camera.

In a thread about HDRP (Link) our fellow user @Grimreaper358 meantioned that preventing the cam from clipping is done in the "Unity FPS Sample" via and i quote

So how is that done?
Can it be done in the standard pipeline or does it require HDRP?
Whats the technical idea behind it?
What are good search terms for it? I didn't find anything related to this.

My last resort would be downloading the Unity FPS Sample but thats 20 gigabytes and would lock down my internet, ( which is powered by a steam engine and two horses ) for probably two days straight.

Thanks for taking the time!

 

This video is timestamped to where this method is described and showed.

Also a forum post about the shader graph version of the Weapon/First Person shader

You can do this with the standard pipeline but you'll be writing the shader yourself.

 

Hey Grimreaper, thanks for the answer and the links!

I now got the shadergraph version and exported it into shadercode. Now making that a working standard-shader or inserting that into the standard pbr-shader feels like three levels above my current skillset. Okay~ let's see...

 

The entire FPS Sample project is up on Github too:
https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/FPSSample

If you drill down into Assets/Shaders/SubGraphs and Assets/Shaders/Graphs/FirstPerson_Projection you can grab those specific bits by themselves to see what they're doing.

 

Thanks for the links! But i already got the shadergraph-version of the shader. Now i only need to repurpose that into a standard pbr-shader, thats my problem right now.

 

Hey @CortiWins any luck with this?
