New color grading feature which uses Look Up Tables (LUT). Custom effects can be made by editing the LUT texture and can be applied selectively to objects. Here I'm using it to invert colors. You can see the color of the shadow is inverted too.

Screenshot from MZ3D Rewrite, showing the new LUT-based color grading feature. Here it is used to selectively apply inverted colors to certain objects.

Examples of color look up table (LUT) textures taken frame babylon's documentation.

Text:

Here is what the default (without filter) look-up table looks like:

Examples of filtered LUT to use for various filters:

implementing blend modes. We have access to more blend modes than RPG Maker normally offers, and you can access them using texture configuration.

from left to right: normal, add, subtract, multiply, screen, exclusion, and two more normal.

Getting effekseer to work on the rewrite is actually pretty hard, it's really not meant to run in a worker thread. (I can do it though dw)

MZ3D Rewrite is getting pretty close to ready for release, 3D model imports are now fully implemented to the level they were before. First release of Rewrite will probably omit the postprocessing features in favor of releasing sooner. Hoping to release in the next month or two.

created a system for warping 4-directional sprites to make them appear 8-directional.

Screenshot of MZ3D Rewrite, the new "diagonal sprite" feature that doesn't require diagonal sprites. It works by creating a quad split down the middle, then shifting that edge to the left or the right to make the character appear like they're facing diagonal left or right.

it shouldn’t, the plugin loads portions of the map in chunks so it only creates meshes for parts of the map that would be visible. this applies to connected maps too. so far in my tests the new plugin handles very large maps well.

like ignoring all the work that goes into other elements and just focusing on character writing

strangely the actual article seems to just be talking about ai driven dialogue? which botw isn’t even very dialogue heavy. it comes off as though it was written by someone who never played the game.

working on a feature that allows rendering multiple maps at once. No seamless transitions between the maps yet, but they're both rendering. This can also be used to stack maps on top of each other for easier verticality

Screenshot of MZ3D Rewrite demonstrating multiple maps loaded at once. One map has the outdoor tileset and the other has the indoor tileset

this feature just loops the entire map. i also plan on bringing back the feature to repeat the tiles at the edges. being able to specify a region to repeat sounds like a good idea too though.

Got looping maps working properly now. The lights from before are actually attached to the tiles but for performance reasons only the main copy of the map will have lights. #RPGMaker #MZ3D

Screenshot of MZ3D Rewrite demonstrating that looping maps now work properly. Several copies of the map can be seen in the distance, but for performance reasons only the main copy of the map will have lights.

This screenshot has a cell size of 10 and 9 lights per mesh. Normally you should probably try to use less lights per cell than this however. Babylon's default limit is 4 lights per mesh, but my default will remain 8. The actual limit can vary per device so try to not use more lights than you need.

rewrote the code that determines which lights a mesh should be affected by. Performs much better now, and no more weird flickering when the lights are recalculated.
