Question by cy2344 · Aug 30, 2013 at 04:39 AM · shader

Can I draw part of object A in front of object B, and part of Object B in front of Object A?

Can I draw part of object A in front of object B, and part of Object B in front of Object A?

Do I need custom shader? UNITY's default shader seems to finish drawing one object then another on top.

Yes. Provide details like what kind of camera you're using (perspective or orthographic), if your object parts are separate children objects or not.

I am very sorry for the late reply, I am using perspective camera. both objects are separate objects(contain only a single mesh), without any children.

It works fine if they are solid.

If they are transparent then one object is rendered after another. You can not do per polygon sorting.
