  • Hello, I'm trying to make an effect that will cut hole through objects that are in front of my character. The idea is to have the player go behind a wall and still see the player and some stuff around. A similar effect to what I'm looking for is like the original Fallout, where the ceiling and walls get "cut through" by a bubble of sorts.

    Hope I explained exactly what I'm looking for, I'd appreciate any help you could give me! :)

  • HA, not even 10 minutes late and I figured it out. You need to make a sprite shaped in how you want to cut the hole. Set the blend mode to destination out. Finally, set the sprite's z order above the objects you are trying to cut through. Anything you don't want to cut through needs to be below the sprite.

    Hope this helps you.

    Dang, just figured it out too. I knew I had to use blend modes, but I wasn't sure exactly what to use.
