"Poisoned by Interrogator droid" view

[KyleFan]

Hi everyone!

I was just wondering if it is possible to make the camera view look like when the Interrogator droid poisons you, during a cutscene like in a dream sequence for example.

Has anyone ever done something like this?

You may be able to do this with an overlaying texture/shader at your camera point. Its done in JKA, 3 map when you go into the thermal station to disable the bombs. The camera has an overlay texture i think which is linked to a shader that makes it look like you are watching a live feed on a monitor.

If you can modify the shader it spins and swirls certain textures in overlay, you could portrait that. It sounds to me the easiest. You have to trigger this though with a target_activate and a target_deactivate on a brush with a func_static. Requires a bit of scripting, but since you already work with the camera, i doubt it would then above your head.

Thanks for the tip!

I'll look into it when I have the time.

A similar effect is used in JK, when you control a Droid – in this case your eyes show you a slightly different screen.

I always thought it would be neat to have an effect, similar to that of vision/premonition from KOTOR II, when sides of the screen go into wiggle/blur style.
