I've been working on updating some of the documentation and moving it to the new website. I also fixed a bug that was causing some parts of the site to not work properly.
I'm still not going to guarantee that the documentation is 100% complete because I might have missed some details, but it's in a much more complete state now than it was ...

Took me long enough I know, for some reason I was possessed to write the whole site from scratch instead of using a CMS, and then I ended up starting over a few times.
Anyway, while the site is still under construction, it's live now. You can make an account and choose how you want to be credited in my projects.
This website will als...

2023-05-13 15:34:41 +0000 UTC View PostAbout version numbers: Originally I've been naming my versions with a zero at the start of them to signify that the plugin is still a work in progress, but at some point I dropped the zero because I noticed most people weren't using it when talking about the versions either.
But in the next major update I plan on rewriting a lot of the cod...

Currently in the early stages of development. I've started working on a 3D plugin/add-on for RPG Maker Unite. As you can see in the images, it's currently more of a mode-7 kind of effect, but more advanced 3D will be possible in the future.
I have gotten 3D lighting working as well, but currently shadows aren't working. Unite uses canvases...
2023-05-12 18:23:20 +0000 UTC View PostSorry it's been a little bit since an update, I've been trying to work on some performance enhancements (multithreading to reduce lag spikes, and webgpu support) as well as the movement system I was working on. It looks like the performance enhancements might require me to rewrite large parts of the code, so I can't give an ETA on that. In the m...

I feel like my patreon page is kind of lacking in the public posts department. Because I usually include attachments with my post that I want to make patron-only, I usually have to make the whole post patron-only, but really I want the post to be public and have just the attachments be patron-only. I wish patreon let me do that.
Anyway, as...

So this is actually a side project that I completed a little while ago but never released for whatever reason, so I've decided to release it on Patreon. It's a Visual Novel Maker plugin that allows you to run an RPG Maker game (or really any html-based game) inside of it. It takes care of syncing variables between the game and even some of the o...

The main focus of this update is the control over animations on imported GLTF models, which I've renamed to actions to avoid confusion with RPG Maker's animations, and to match the name used in Blender's action editor.
See the example projects for examples on how to rename actions, scale bones, and replace textures on imported models. The ...

I've been teaching myself how to script for blender, so I had this idea for a blender add-on. It can import and export meshes from MV3D mesh strings, specifically the p{} mesh shape.
This add-on will make using the mesh building feature of MV3D a lot easier. Simply paste the exported text into a mesh() configuration function.

2022-04-03 19:55:36 +0000 UTC View PostAdded the ability to set sprite offset per sprite. Sprite offset is a feature which moves sprites slightly closer to the camera so they fit in the tile they occupy when they fold down. You can now specify a sprite offset for individual sprites, as such: shape(sprite,0.45p)
The "p" in the above example makes the offset change according to the ...
The new custom meshes feature added to mv3d and mz3d is a little confusing, so I'm writing a quick explanation of how to use the new feature.
On the surface the mesh function and the model function may seem very similar, and they do have very similar results.
The mesh function takes a set of instructions and uses it to construct a me...

New features:
Math expressions can be used inside some configurations. Three variables are supported: x, y, and r. X and Y are the coordinates of the tile or event. r is a random value based on the tile or event's position. There is also a rand function available to get different random values for the same tile. rand(0) is the same as r.
