Depth Mask negative depth

[korn3l]

Currently tk2dUIMask won't work if we set a negative depth. I tried modifying the depth mask shader ZTest to GEqual, but it won't work. I tried modifying the script changing all the "-depth" values to "depth", but it still won't work.
I'm starting to think that this isn't possible. Is there a workaround for this ?

Just move it back physically? It clips inside the blue volume, so just move it in such a way that the blue volume encompases what you want to clip...

I use a perspective camera and because of that the mask will "slide" over my sprite, because of the mask "moving" faster than the sprite just behind it.

If you're masking 2D elements, it might be easier to have a second 2d camera in there?
Anyway, you can modify the mask object to work with negative depths - the way its set up is the mesh z is pushed back by "depth" and the sorting order is kept at z=0. All of this happens in FillMesh - you should be able to modify it to work whatever way you like. The code that does this is very isolated.
