In the Camera Settings section, you will see a Transparency Sort Mode dropdown, as well as the X, Y, and Z value settings for the Transparency Sort Axis.īy default, the Transparency Sort Axis in Unity is set to (0, 0, 1) for XYZ respectively. To define a Custom Axis Sort at the Project level, go to Edit > Project Settings > Graphics. You can define this setting either per-camera (currently, this is the default way to do it in the Scriptable Render Pipelines, including LWRP and HDRP) - or globally at the project level. To customize the order in which 2D objects are painted on the screen, we can use Unity’s Custom Axis Sort feature. We need to make sure that the tiles that are further away from the viewer get painted first and those that are closer painted on top of them. Isometric Tilemap works with 2-dimensional sprites, and it relies on correct renderer sorting in order to create the illusion of a top-down isometric view.
If you’re interested in following along and experimenting with the techniques shown, we’ve created a pre-configured Isometric Starter Kit project with an animated character and multiple environment tilesets, which you can download for free.Įxplore more 2D environments and tools that provide endless creative possibilitiesīefore we start working with Tilemap, it is important to set up our project correctly.
In further Unity releases, they might be moved to the package manager. Both features build on top of the existing Tilemap system introduced back in Unity 2017.2, and working with them today is just as easy! They are also natively integrated into the Editor. The new Tilemap features provide a fast and performant way to create 2D environments based on isometric and hexagonal grid layouts, the likes of which are seen in many game classics, including the first entries of the Diablo and Fallout franchises, Civilization, Age of Empires, and many more. With the release of Unity 2018.3, we introduced Isometric Tilemap support - closely following Hexagonal Tilemap support which was added in the 2018.2 release.
