Description
A test of the video-particle portal effect. It still needs to be adjusted but the green area in the portal is an actual area you can pass into. The technique uses a render-texture to make a "view" into an alternate area (the green area). Particle systems are very "costly" for processing and rendering, so the portal "particles" use a video texture to create the portal effect. The video has a black background and is set to "transparency from image". This custom sphere-shaped portal was based on the Brackeys Unity project "Smooth Portals". The effect has been improved since then.I have been experimenting with using video effects instead of particle systems and other "processor-costly" effects. You can render a high-quality effect to video and just apply it to textures, so you don't have to generate those high-quality effects during run-time. Saves a lot of processing, which is especially great for mobile or legacy devices.
