Vortex image effect

Vortex image effect distorts the rendered image. Similar to Twirl, it distorts the image in a circular region.

Like all image effects, Vortex is available in Unity Pro only. Make sure to have the Pro Standard Assets installed.

RadiusThe radii of the ellipse where image distortion takes place. Radius of 0.5 is half the size of the screen.
AngleControls the amount of distortion applied.
CenterPosition the distortion area on the screen.

Hardware support

Vortex works on graphics cards with support for pixel shaders (2.0) or devices with OpenGLES 2.0. E.g. GeForce FX 5200 or Radeon 9500 and up. All image effects automatically disable themselves when they can not run on an end-users graphics card.
