Intersection effect
🕑 Added 2017-08-30 19:51:12 +0000 UTC Ever had this thing when you accidentally put your camera inside a character in any 3d game? And it looks horrifying - either floating eyeballs and teeth, or you see your character from inside like an empty tube, like an inflatable toy.This always disturbed me a great deal, even though its technically how 3d models work, I never wanted the unprepared player to experience that. I feel it's important for our game, where we try hard to persuade the player that our creatures are living beings... Therefore, here is the camera effect you'll see if you get inside the character - darkness...
Of course, for gameplay reasons its best to not block the screen completely, that's why character fades and gives room for the players to see through.
If the camera rotates up when its close to the character - the effect is amplified, making it easier to scout around, similarly how it is many other third person games.
And of course, in case if you don't want character to be hidden, and prefer getting a major distraction right in your face every time you look up - your choice, its all going to be adjustable in the settings.

I just improved on this effect by the way... Now its better on detecting if the camera is too close to the character. Its good if you need to look around, for example when climbing or in first-person (yes we have a simple first person mode now, but you don't see your hands or legs)
Holy crap, that's an awesome effect! :D
