AC 2.5D Camera Issue (Background Image)

edited October 2022 in Technical Q&A

Good Afternoon,

I'm currently attempting the 'Adventure Creator: Creating a 2.5D game Tutorial', however, I've run into an issue.

My 'BackgroundCamera' Image doesn't show, because it's being blocked by the default background color of the Main Camera. In the tutorial, I see that I should be able to see the BackgroundImage through the main camera, however, it's not visible.

Not sure if I'm missing something obvious, screenshots are attached.

Edit - I've just realized the Main Camera has nothing to do with it, it's just that the BackgroundImage is not displaying in the 2.5D Cameras. Still unable to fix it though :(

  • Welcome to the community, @DaneDotNet.

    It looks like your project is using Unity's Universal Render Pipeline - is that right?

    The background image effect works by overlaying the BackgroundCamera (which renders the image) underneath the MainCamera.

    With Unity's Built-in Render Pipeline, which the tutorial uses, this is automatic. With URP, however, you'll need to include a script to handle the overlay. You can find this script on the AC wiki, here:

    https://adventure-creator.fandom.com/wiki/2.5D_games_with_URP

    That should correct the background image display, but let me know if not.

  • That script worked perfectly! My issue is solved. Thankyou so much, deeply appreciate it :)
