Club Lasers in Unity

Simple code to develop club lasers in Unity

The code is used in the Immersions VJ app. Get the app on the App Store.

Installation

• Download the clublaser package
• Import the package into your project. It will add a prefab and a script to your assets
• Drag the ClubLaser Prefab onto your scene
• Scale, translate and rotate it as you wish
• Customize the LaserBeam gameobject:
  • Add a material (use color emission for best results)
  • Update the width of the line renderer to adjust laser thickness
  • Configure laser parameters:
    • laserBPM: laser increments per minute (try 120 to start with)
    • a list of laser combos to be used randomly (see examples below)
• Once you are happy with your configuration, duplicate the parent gameobject to add more laser beams
