SeeThroughSystem

Overview

A see-through system built on Dithered Transparency that automatically fades out objects obstructing the target.

Features

• Preset-based configuration — no scripting required

• Supports custom see-through styles via texture maps

• Compatible with all shaders (no modification to occluder shaders required)

Usage

Drag the SeeThroughSystem prefab into the scene.

Then configure the parameters:

• CameraThe main camera. If left unassigned, the system defaults to Camera.main.

• Target ObjectThe object the camera focuses on (e.g., the main character).

• Target CenterThe center point of the target.

  • If the target has no collider, this point is used as the raycast origin.

  • If the target has a collider, this setting is ignored and the collider bounds are used for detection instead.

• Occluder Layer MaskSpecifies which layers can be treated as occluders (e.g., walls).

• Fade TimeThe duration of the fade transition (controls the fade-in and fade-out timing).

• See Through Mask MaterialThe material used for the see-through mask.

  • Default – Procedurally generated pattern

  • Circle – Circular dot pattern

  • Square – Square grid pattern

Run the scene. When the target is obstructed, the blocking objects automatically fade to semi-transparent, allowing the character to remain visible.

Custom Styles

Create a new SeeThroughMask material and adjust its texture and parameters to achieve custom visual styles.
