[Unity] Flight Camera Character Controller

Today, I'll show you a good exercise I made to manipulate quaternions. In extra you got a 3C structure for a flight game.

I chose to make a flight behavior because of rotation complexity. Today we always use physics to drive vehicles in video games, but this exercise is focused on quaternions manipulations, so all the behavior is driven by quaternions.

Main Features:

- Smooth TPS camera
- Camera switch (FPS / TPS)
- Auto replace character rotation: 3 different ways to smoothly reset character rotation (All Axis, Per Axis, None)

Controls:

- Z/S: pitch
- Q/D: roll
- Shift: boost
- Left click / Right click: dodge left / right (lateral movement with roll as in some Star Wars video games)

Download:

- Download Windows standalone
- Download Unity project

    I worked on the mobile controls for my space game for half a year and almost gave up.
    And this is way better than what I got. Thanks a lot for this. :)

[Unity][Shader] Night Vision

A simple shader to make a night vision effect. Features - Screen colorization - Vignette effect - Noise - Scene diffuse (unlit) and scene color (lit) buffer are blended, allow to see in the complete dark while still having luminance difference on pixel affected by lights - Option to have pixels with high luminance tending toward white Screenshots Without effect With effect With/ Without (drag the cursor) Video Source Code [+] Shader Shader "Post Process/Shader_NightVision" { Properties { _MainTex ("Texture", 2D) = "white" {} _ColorTint("Color Tint", Color) = (1, 1, 1, 1) _VignetteRadius("Vignette Radius", Range(0, 2)) = 0.25 _VignetteSmoothness("Vignette Smoothness", Range(0, 2)) = 0.25 _LightSensitivity("Light Sensitivity", Range(1, 100)) = 1 _LightWhiteTreshold("Light White Treshold", Range(0, 1)) = 0.5 _LightWhitePower(...

[FPS Maker] Custom FPS Game Engine

Image
What is FPS Maker FPS Maker is a FPS game engine with no coding knowledge requirements designed for absolute newbies in game development, it looks like more a game with its own map editor. FPS Maker is written in C++ and uses Irrlicht for the rendering part and OpenAL for the audio part. I started working on it 3 months ago, of course it is still under development and my free time will be highly shortened soon, so progress will be slow but I will try to add/improve features depending on my free time. So this is how FPS Maker looks like for now, hoping I will have enough time to post updates. Main Features Editor Map editing Play current map from editor Build game in a standalone format Tile based navigation graph generation (automatic) Browse custom game assets Game Basic FPS 3C Weapons AI based on state machines Path finding based on A* algorithm Batching for static geometry Dynamic per pixel lighting (using a custom shader, not the Irrlicht built ...

[Unity][Shader] Stylized Fog

Image
I wrote a simple shader for Unity to make a stylized fog like Fire Watch's fog. The idea is to get a pixel on the texture depending on the pixel depth, if the fog is near, a pixel on the left on the texture uv will be picked, if the fog is far, a pixel on the right on the texture uv will be picked. Features Choose between a linear fog and an exponential fog Choose between a simple color or a texture Screenshots Video Source Code Image Effect Version (Unity 2017 and older if not using Stack) [+] Shader Shader "Hidden/Shader_StylizedFog" { Properties { _MainTex("Texture", 2D) = "white" {} _FogColor("Fog Color", Color) = (1, 1, 1, 1) _UseStylizedFogTexture("Use Stylized Fog Texture", Int) = 0 _StylizedFogTexture("Stylized Fog Texture", 2D) = "white" {} _FogMinDistance("Fog Min Distance", Float) = 0 _FogMaxDistance("Fog Max Distance",...
