Built some 3d UI for the game “Do You Copy?”. “Do You Copy?” is a horror game made for the Asylum game jam. There were quite a few friends on the development team. I came in later when we wanted to expand the game into a bigger experience. I built a 3d UI & inventory system similar to many existing horror games. You can add items to your inventory but you can also investigate them through a 3d UI to examine them for more details. The UI allowed people to fully rotate the object in 3d and zoom in on individual items.
Created in Unreal 4.
This is a layered camera setup I put together because we needed 3d UI that the user could interact with while the world still rendered behind it. This uses two cameras with one acting as a mask. The first camera renders the scene while the second camera only renders the object the user wants to inspect in 3d, and then layers it on top of the first cameras output. Controls are then forwarded between the two cameras when needed.
