Indie Game Developer known online as Zombie1111 has recently wowed hundreds of people over on Reddit by unveiling a cool-looking Red Faction-style destruction system created in Unity for an upcoming game.
Inspired by Unreal Engine 5's Chaos Destruction, Zombie1111's system is completely custom and was built from scratch in less than two weeks. As per the creator, the setup utilizes NVblast to fracture the object into chunks, complemented by a self-made system that manages both the destruction and mesh deformation. The result is then rendered as one mesh, and the destruction is multithreaded, ensuring that the setup is performance-friendly.
"I'm not blending meshes," commented the developer. "I'm modifying the mesh vertics and vertex colors at runtime. Then using a custom shader that uses the vertex colors to blend two materials. Thinking about selling it on the asset store to hopefully get some extra money to spend on my game but not sure if it's worth the effort."
