Awesome work man, I was wondering about this - I’m going to use it for in-game books for my VR game.

i need that for something like a book too, but the are a lot of possibility’s, like render something like something you are rending in a HUD (canvas) but apply it to a texture/mesh, include random photos/textures in a wall texture and more. Its a great feature without documentation (i least i could not find anything)

This is a super useful tutorial, thank you for your contribution. Is anyone having the problem that the text fades in slowly over time when you run the code?
