Question by basti · Aug 06, 2013 at 08:28 AM · rendertexture3dtextorthographic camera

3DText is rendered in front of rendertexture. (SOLVED)

Hi!

I am using a orthographic camera to render a 3D gui on top of my game camera. In one of my Windows there is a rendertexture. There are also 3DTexts on the Screen (overlays for objects in the Scene) which are rendered in front of this rendertexture, despite the fact that these 3dTexts are located behind the texture (z-coordinate). I have added a screenshot for you to better understand my problem.

alt text

"WEB2", "STARBASE" and "AS002" should not be visible. This is only happening with Rendertextures. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Basti

This occurs because the shader used for the default 3DText objects is a standard alpha blended shader which neither write to the Z-buffer nor undergo depth testing themselves.

Eric5h5 wrote a substitute shader that obeys depths and put it on the wiki some time ago, you can find it here:
