How do I save the camera depth texture?

I've tried saving the render texture with ReadPixels and setting the color format to DEPTH_AUTO but it doesn't work, the image that gets saved is just a solid gray, does anyone know what's happening/how to fix it?

 

Maybe you can do it like this instead of what you are doing now?

I don't know how to do shaders and I can't learn it right now because I need to finish this in a few days

 

Let me understand this.

- you came here to post a question
- @arfish found what appears to be a solution
- you say you don't have the time to learn right now
- instead you want some stranger to create you a different solution in that same timeframe, one that you "don't have to learn."

I wish you the best of luck.

 

Nope, hoping that someone knows what's wrong with my solution, the other person suggested a different thing
