🌈 Use Cases

You want to show your 3D items in an inventory UI?

Add the PrefabInstantiator to the WorldObjectRenderer and you are done.

Want to have a 3D portrait of an NPC?

Simply drag in the transform of the NPC into the list of world objects.

You need a top-down mini-map of the level?

Empty the list of world objects and then use “Camera Look At” and “Camera position” to have the camera high up in the sky looking down.

✔️ Full Source Code

I publish this asset with full source code because as a developer I know how annoying it is to not have source code access. If you like it then please remind others to purchase the plugin. Don’t just copy and paste it everywhere. Thank you ❤️

✔️ Supports Unity 2021.3*, 2022, Unity 6.0, Unity 6.3, .. LTS**

⚠️ Unity 7 Info ⚠️

Please notice that with Unity 7 and Unity´s switch to CoreCLR there will have to be some big changes and those cost time and thus it will probably become a major upgrade for this asset (meaning there will be a minor upgrade cost and a new major version). The upgrade will be free for anyone who got the asset within the last 12 months once the update is released so you need not worry about this once we get near Unity 7. – Thank you for understanding.

* 2021 is now no longer supported since Unity does not allow uploading updates for this version anymore. The old package can still be downloaded but it will not longer receive any updates.

** Please notice that LTS releases are always officially supported and tested. Intermediate releases are supported on a best effort basis since Unity often introduces breaking changes in those. Thank you for understanding and please let me know if you have any issues.

😎 HINT 1:

Disable “Use Render Textures” to use camera stacking instead of render textures.

🧐 HINT 2:

Use the PrefabInstantiator to instantiate and destroy prefabs on demand.

🤠 HINT 3:

Multipe image can display the same renderer (simpy set them all to the same Renderer ID).
