Question by ml1985 · Feb 06, 2015 at 08:57 PM · overdraw

Overdraw Mode

Hi Guys

I stumbled upon Overdraw mode in the editor and realised it would be a great feature for play mode. My question is if there is a convenient way of implementing overdraw mode in game from a press of a custom button.

Would appreciate any help.

Regards

Overdraw mode is a diagnostic tool to help you improve performance in your game by identifying those pixels in your scene that are being rendered twice (i.e. where one object is drawn on top of another).

But, if what you want is a shader that produces a similar effect when applied to a material of an object in the scene, then try this:

 Shader "Overdraw" {

     Properties { _MainTex ("Base", 2D) = "white" {} }

     SubShader {
       Fog { Mode Off }
       ZWrite Off
       ZTest Always
       Blend One One

       Pass {
         SetTexture[_MainTex] {
           constantColor(0.1, 0.04, 0.02, 0)
           combine constant, texture
         }
       } // End Pass
     } // End Subshader
 } // End Shader

I think what the OP is asking for is an Overdraw Image Effect for his Game camera, allowing him to view his game in Play mode with the Overdraw shader.

This would be helpful because it makes it easier to diagnose overdraw problems while playing the game, from the perspective of the Game Camera.

It would also make it so that all objects are rendered this way, not just the ones with this script attached.

Does such a Camera or Image Effect exist?
