[FREE] GPU Line of Sight / Field of View

How would you make it so that the fov is a different effect from the example desaturate, such as with blue hexagons? It’s amazing otherwise..

 

You could either create a custom Image Effect to render the hexagon pattern in screen space, or render the scene twice (once with a hexagon material, and once using normal materials) and use the LOSBufferStorage and LOSMask components to combine the two renders.

 

Oh, (sorry for all the queries) but how would you send a message to all the los sources that the player is visible too? Thanks for the quick reply, gave me some ideas. P.S. sorry, I’m quite a noob at unity... Want to make it so that the enemies that see the player react. On the enemy script I have two functions to look and shoot at the player, and wanted to call them only on the enemies that the player is visible too.

 

One more thing, could I use a separate, inverted camera that cuts out my level to make the skybox still have colour? Will test with Unity, but wanted to check if there was an easier method?

 

I suggest you take a lot at the PlayerInfo script included in the example scene, for a starting point on how you can implement this.

 

Hi, I purchased the asset a long time ago, now I see it became open source, great! Do you accept pull request?
For a stealth game I decided to use this asset for the guards line of sight visualization, and it seems to work great by using mask color to tint the scene inside a guard LoS. However when I try to add something more complex by using an image effect with the guards' "invert mask" option enabled the image effect disappears entirely if I add more the 1 guards to the scene. Is this a known limitation, or is there a way to work around this? Thanks for the advice!

 

Hi, I just started using the Asset. So far so good, I just have a problem with some weirds rectangles that appear near the camera and when focusing on objects.

Do you have any idea what it could be?
The table for example is a simple model done in Asset Forge (Kenney) and the texture is jsut a basic texture.
Thanks

 

If anyone manages to get it to work with the URP (or HDRP), please let me know, that would be really great, thx!

 

+1
If anyone can even explain to me the scope of what needs to change I'll take a look.

 

@Tycho I was wondering if there have been any updates to this plugin over the past year. We are seeing some banding issues as we increase / decrease the camera distance to the LOSSources. The banding also occurs if you tilt the camera down. Do you have any idea what might be causing this issue? Thank you for your help.
