First Person View Model Shader

Shader for rendering first person view models.

Similar to the method used by:

– Valve (TF2)

– Halo (Reach)

Shader code

// Riordan's (Kastor) FPS view shader (MIT)
shader_type spatial;
render_mode depth_draw_opaque,cull_back;

uniform float fov : hint_range(20, 120) = 40;
const float M_PI = 3.14159265359;

void vertex() {
    // recreate the camera projection matrix with our custom fov value 
    float scale = 1.0 / tan(fov * 0.5 * M_PI / 180.0); 
    PROJECTION_MATRIX[0][0] = scale / (VIEWPORT_SIZE.x / VIEWPORT_SIZE.y);
    PROJECTION_MATRIX[1][1] = scale;
}

void fragment() {
	// Scale the depth value 70%, this prevents most clipping.
	DEPTH = FRAGCOORD.z;
	DEPTH = FRAGCOORD.z * 0.7;
}
