Proximity Color
Proximity Color is a special effect that allows you to change the color of a mesh based on the distance from the camera. This can be used to darken a mesh when it gets close, simulating local occlusion of light.
Demonstration of Proximity Color affecting the appearance of the Material based on the Camera's distance to the object.Pos To Use
Type
: Dropdown, Options:Pixel Position
/Object Position
Which position to use to determine distance.
Pixel Position
: The distance is determined for each pixel, allowing different parts of the mesh to have different colors applied.Object Position
: The distance is determined for the entire object, meaning that the whole mesh will have the same color applied.
Min Color
Type
: Color
What color to multiply the base color by when the distance is at or below the Min Distance. Typically, this would be set to Black in most cases.
Max Color
Type
: Color
What color to multiply the base color by when the distance is at or above the Max Distance. Typically, this would be set to White.
Min Distance
Type
: Float
Distance from the camera at which the Min Color should be applied.
Max Distance
Type
: Float
Distance from the camera at which the Max Color should be applied.
Force BackFace Color
Type
: Checkbox
If enabled, applies the above set Min Color to show on the Back Face, as if the Camera is going inside the mesh.
