How do i make a vhs effect?

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!

i want to make a vhs effect similar to the one used in The Backrooms (Found Footage)
and i want to make it smoothly move with the movement of the player’s camera.

  1. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!

i dont really know how to script or make a gui that smoothly moves with the player’s camera.

  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?

i did looked up in devforum for any vhs effect that which i want but i didnt find any.

PLS HELP ME!

(oh btw this is my first topic and also i want to add it in a SCP game not Backrooms game)

It seems like there are tons of models similar to this on the toolbox. Check them out! Don’t use them, but see how they work. Maybe then you will understand.

I know that but i found some textures and downloaded them to roblox and i made the gui. But there is one problem i want it to distort on edges is it even possible?

I managed to make a hacky solution to distort the edges of your screen. There are probably much better ways of doing this but here you go (Hopefully this is what you are after):

Here is what my edge effect looks like:

I did this by constantly moving a glass part in front of the players camera, this is also done on the client to prevent lag.

Here is what the glass part looks like (Pretty much looks like a pillow, Its the only way I could get the edge effect to work):

Although, this method has its issues if you choose to use it. Here are a few of the issues:

First:
It clips through the wall when walking up against it.

Second:
The sun relfects off of the glass (Which kinda ruins the effect)

I never really decided to pursue this edge effect, but do what you want with this information.


Is this looking good?
Oh btw that light is a flashlight.

It really depends on what you are trying to do. Its up to you whether or not you are happy with it. May I also remind you that this is in the scripting support topic, this is not the place to discuss about lighting or other things unrelated to scripting. If you have a scripting related question feel free to ask.
