@fierce cobalt What happens if you target the hologram? Hologram-ception?

[fierce cobalt]

I just shows the model. The entites are copied first then put on the table so no hologram-ception

[hearty haven]

Nice

[proper gull]

This is insane lol

[tiny iron]

since terrain texture isnt rendering maybe it would be cuter to apply some gray material on all the entities? so its visually consistent

[fierce cobalt]

yeah the terrain copy materials need to be changed

Vehicles are also shown

[tiny iron]

looks super cool

[keen junco]

very nice

[trail field]

Both the idea and the execution are very impressive. Now I want this for every mission briefing.

Wonder if it’s possible to make a table with a paper map like the one in your hand for like the older op folks

[trail field]

Yes it should be. You could either put a static texture on there or maybe even put the map widget into a render target and so it it can be zoomed and panned live on the table XD

@fierce cobalt how are you getting the terrain mesh?

[fierce cobalt]

Creating it with height points of target area

[west kayak]

That could be used to create the "debug zone" like older Arma games had with landlocked maps

I was gonna do something along those lines and never got around to it.

Mission briefs will another level.

[shut coyote]

yo this is so cool

[shut coyote]

it would be so cool to have that table as some military table with radios on it

or anything like that beside futurusitic hologram

Very cool! Is the hologram local to each client? Does it update in real time if for example someone is driving a vehicle?

[sage cargo]

im os exicited for this

imma execute order 66

[fierce cobalt]

Its not MP compatible yet, but I think local on each client is the way. And no its just a one time snapshot. I guess I could make it update every couple seconds tho not sure about lag

[last wren]

A hologram component that has a reference to the real entity may be a good way to update them real time. Just have it update transform every frame based on the real one, I dont think itd be too performance heavy especially if its local to each client, or add in a defined refresh rate. However you do it still very cool!

[hazy fractal]

I love it

[marsh cloak]

Ace combat vibes

[mild scroll]

Would love it if you could obscure some stuff to use it like "known intel" and not magically showing what actually is there. Execution and idea is superb though!
