CameraScene2D Not capturing as intended.

Hi @Tetra_InTeLLeGer, I’m not quite sure the effect you are trying to achieve here, but if you are just looking to capture the general shape of an object, I would suggest using the Custom Depth instead. You can even use Stencils to track multiple different shapes in different passes.

This forum answer goes into setting up custom depth to work with Scene Capture 2D:

Is it possible to use custom depth as a mask when capturing a scene with SceneCapture2D? So only meshes that use custom depth would be captured, with transparent background. Something like “Use custom depth as mask” in High Resolution Screenshot window. I can’t see any option like that in SceneCapture2D, so maybe it would be doable with some help of blendable post process?

If you need more information on Custom Depth in Unreal, Tom Looman has a great tutorial series:
