Thank you, you should finish it and try it out too.
ok so now I am trying to do the effect from a different axis, basically add on another angle to build the post process from. Not sure if itll work, but I think its worth a try.

So, like basically rotating the circle of traces 90 degrees to face forward rather than down, along with the down one already present

EDIT: ah dam! just realized, all the color is gone. The post process mask has taken all the color away!

EDIT2: btw, do you know how we could possibly use the shadow of a dynamic light and overlay ontop of everything on screen? so that its not affected by any lights?

It has to take height/elevation into account

Hello Paranoyd_JO, it seems like we both want the same result. I’ve been trying for ages. Have you found a way to adjust this tutorial to gain the ability to see above objects? Like in the picture you showed us.

Hi guys. If you use Line Trace to create LoS it will lead to nothing. Games levels are rarely perfectly horizontal. I recommend watching this: https://youtu.be/vImiTO7MOiI?si=CowrlX9UIsoi-Ye2
