    Hi,

    As we can't use the version of HDRP in the FPS sample it would be great to have the FOV adjustment as a shader graph. I tried and failed horribly and got into a strop big time. I even refused to give my cat a treat.

    Please could you demonstrate how we can do this effect in a graph? It seems wild that I'd have to replace the SRP to do it.......

    I second this! I am developing an FPS and was very excited to see the FPS Sample handling the FOV, yet I can't (or don't know how to do it).

    I tried replacing the SRP as a test and it all went horribly wrong - a shader graph example or a LitFPS shader would be awesome.

    nevermind i updated shadergraph editor and the field of view works,
    is there a way to prevent the fps view models from clipping thru walls?

    The FPS sample shrinks the gun.

    I don't recall, I believe it's just scaled though.

    ok, will try different scales then. tnx

    edit

    scaling doesnt work , still clips thru walls. there should be a way in the shader graph to render the fps view shader on top of everything else.

    @Vestergaard Just curious, why not also change the z value of the viewPos?

    kind of funky with regards to screenspace effects based on depth, like our ssao, contact shadows etc. Try it out maybe it works for your use cases, but i didn't want to depend on it as i don't know what kind of depth traced / ray marched effects we might end up implementing down the line.

    could u post a copy of just the shader that has the fps view toggle and explain were to paste it? couldnt find it anywhere. ended up copying the entire hdrpipeline package folder from the fpssample project.

    The implementation is injected into 7 files, you can search our hdrp package for "_FPS_MODE"

    Search "_FPS_MODE" (7 hits in 7 files)

    tnx man!
    is your team planning on making the shader not clip thru walls. there should be a way to render it after everything else.
    scaling the weapons works but not in every case. really liking your sample btw ;)

    Even the new doom has some clipping, and uses this approach so for the near future do no expect us to do anything beyond this, as we concider it the best compromise for this title.

    As mentioned to completely avoid sorting issues you have to render it in a separate pass, which requires much more invasive changes to the hdrp to be performant and as we would like to be on stock hdrp next release this is not something that we can commit to maintaining, and not a solution I would recommend to any team that doesn't have the rendering prowess to implement and maintain themselves.

    ok tnx for explaining,
    would be nice to have that fps view checkbox in the standard hdrp shader, just a thought

    I must be an idiot because with the ShaderGraph shader, the FOV does NOT get changed and my weapon is now fully PINK. I am up to date with the latest ShaderGraph version but there's no way for me to select what base material (either color or texture) I want to use the ShaderGraph shader on...

    Can anyone explain? Shaders are not my forte and I'm really tired of having to search through HUNDREDS of posts about this dumb issue that should've been a feature within Unity for years now. If it's possible for people to "hack" their way through this in either materials or editing the way the ProjectionMatrix works, I don't see why this is not a standard feature to begin with. "Add this script or material to your weapon to have it be rendered in a different FOV so you don't have to use two camera's yaay"

    Any progress on this? TAA has artefacts with the weapon and hands model.

    Pink means the shader isn't compiled properly. Open the Shader Graph for it and hit "Save Asset", it should recompile it for the version you have now. Also, you are using it on HDRP, right?

    I tried following this


    But could not find the forward render on HDRP project, how do I do this?

    This technique works well but how do I get the new position of the hand/gun? I want to play particle effects(muzzle flash and smoke) from the tip of the gun barrel but the transforms are no longer where it appears. I tried to check for the position in update/late update/fix update. None of them worked. Any ideas?
