Unity Setup

This mod uses Postprocessing screen effects that require the Post Processing unity package.

Open Window Package Manager:

Search for the Post Processing package in Packages: Unity Repository and install it:

Download and add the Thermal Goggles Package:

Thermal Goggles Package[drive.google.com]

Glasses

Open one of the Glasses Objects from the Example Package you want to edit:

All Thermal Effects are tied to the light of the Night Vision to only be active when the goggles are turned on.

Thermal Highlighting:

The first Front and Back Objects contain the Projector to highlight all elements in the world.
The other Front and Back Projectors handle View Model Highlights (World and View Model Projectors could most likely be combined)

Under Ignore you can select Objects by Tag which should NOT be highlightet.
To avoid flickering in the view model in some orientations the front and back projectors are offset by 0.5 to properly overlap!
The Far Clip Plane and Orthographic Size need to be this big because the projector is tied to the third person model which is hidden in a fixed spot under the map when the player is in first person!

The Material set in the projector will be used on all applicable objects, this means we can set the color we want but also set the shader to allow wallhack as seen in the admin goggles

Post Processing:

There are a lot of post processing options used to get the cool Thermal Effect to work but the main things are:

Auto Exposure and Color Grading to dimm highlights and increase dark spots and make the image black and white.
Additionally Vignette and Grain help to get a more realistic effect and make them a bit less op.

UI Effect:

ThermalUI is a UI Effect used in addition to the Vignette effect to restrict field of view.

Sort Order -1 keeps the UI behind the vanilla Menus (Inventory, Options and so on)
Scale with Screen Size is used to keep the Effect Full Screen on all resolutions
