    Hub-Hosted VAR CC BY-NC-SA

    As many know the colortone assetbundle can break certain effects in vam and as a work around I've made a lut that attempts to get close to the same effects and then combined that with my favorite existing luts from @BooMoon , @ICannotDie , and @ptrxxx . I'll probably add to this as I make more...

    Performance - Physics

    Hey everyone, I've been developing the RealFeel scene for over a year now. Over time, the scene has grown significantly in size and complexity — which, as expected, has led to a gradual drop in performance. We can imagine that this scene is heavy on performance because of lights, hundreds of...

    An initial attempt at importing SEGI global illumination into VAM.

    Block/mask light

    Hi, I'm trying to understand lighting in VAM, and I'd like someone to confirm something. Let say we have a two room asset, with no light on it's totally dark (black screen), you create and point a light at the adjoining wall in room A, room B should be dark as there is no light, but instead...

    Question Passthrough topic: Is there some material setting so an atom with a flat colour won't receive any shading effect, allowing passthrough effect?

    So the atom will look like a silhouette essentially in whatever colour it's been allocated. This is for creating passthrough portals in a scene.

    Comes in 4 colors--Normal, Green, Blue, Purple. Each version has a straight up and side. Lighting goes a long way to make a good scene and I never liked using VaM's built-in torches because they always cause a lot of lag and the sprite looks pretty dated. None of these torches have baked...
