Painting holes (with dissolve shader)

Test project..

Using the dissolve shader from unifywiki,
just added texture painting into that hole-texture
and we have a (fake) hole painter/shooter.

This is cool!

 

Looks cool but doesn't work on my Macbook Pro (ATI X1600 graphics):

 

^ Try to rotate to ball (A/D keys) ?

(it doesnt draw on backside/inside)

 

A-ha! It's working just fine after all!

 

Test version 2
- You can shoot objects through the holes (press space)
- And fill the holes by holding down LeftShift while painting
- Sparks fx, when there is something to cut, if there is hole already, no fx.

Very cool!

 

Cool. Trying it out now. Just thinking that maybe can have a paint backface option so that i can plain the backface without turning the sphere all the way to the back. But still very neat.

 

Wow this is amazing, you've done a great job with this. This could answer a lot of questions about damaging objects and environment. Im even more impressed that the collider reacts with this plane, just amazing....

 

Hi, thanks for sharing, it does look cool and useful

 

Hi,
Woaw, I can me only admire how smooth it is (the source is no longer available).
I gave a try but so fo far from your result...
- how do you paint please? Do you use setPixels or?
- what's the magic you used to make objects go through your transparent section? (your own engine or?)

Thanks a lot and have a good we,
Michael

 

Yes, its just setpixels.

"Going through" collider
- when you shoot, it checks the target pixel color, if there is hole, it sets bullet collider as trigger..
