Camera.projectionMatrix

var projectionMatrix : Matrix4x4

Description

Set a custom projection matrix.

If you change this matrix, the camera no longer updates its rendering based on its fieldOfView. This lasts until you call ResetProjectionMatrix.

Use a custom projection only if you really need a non-standard projection. This property is used by Unity's water rendering to setup an oblique projection matrix. Using custom projections requires good knowledge of transformation and projection matrices.

    // Make camera wobble in a funky way!

// change some values from the original matrix
p.m01 += Mathf.Sin (Time.time * 1.2) * 0.1;
p.m10 += Mathf.Sin (Time.time * 1.5) * 0.1;
camera.projectionMatrix = p;

    // Set an off-center projection, where perspective's vanishing
// point is not necessarily in the center of the screen.
//
// left/right/top/bottom define near plane size, i.e.
// how offset are corners of camera's near plane.
// Tweak the values and you can see camera's frustum change.
