Overview :
Render 3D objects to look like 2D sprite art in real time.
Highlights:
- Per-object pixelization: mixing scenes of pixelated and unpixelated objects. Individual objects may be pixelated into “macropixels” of up to 5×5 screen pixels in size.
- Per-object outlines: Outlines can be blocked in color or tinted and controlled separately for each object. supports both silhouette and normal-based outlines.
- No pixel creep: when using orthographic projection
- Lighting and shadows: including shadows cast between pixelated objects and unpixelated objects.
- Compatible with ShaderGraph-just use the provided nodes in your materials (example ShaderGraph asset included).
- Per-object color grading and dither patterns: achieve a retro feel by using reduced color palettes. A selection of dither patterns (or no dither) are supported. editor tools to create dither patterns and palettes.
- Compatible with post processing effects, such as depth of field, bloom, vignette.
- WebGL: support-see the demo on itch.io..
- Unlike other pixelization effects: ProPixelizer keeps the screen rendered at full resolution. This allows pixelated objects to move at screen resolution without creep. It also allows seamless blending of pixelated and unpixelated objects and the use of high-resolution post-processing such as bloom and/or depth-of-field.
- works well with low-poly 3D models.
Requirements:
- Only for Universal Render Pipeline.
- The latest version of ProPixelizer has been tested with Unity 2022.2.1f1 and URP 14.0.4, Unity 2021.3.16f1 and URP 12.1.8, and with Unity 2020.3.43f1 and URP 10.10.1.
- Performs a postprocessing effect on pixelated objects, which is implemented through an included render feature.
- Although alpha cutout and dithered fading are supported, pixelated objects must be opaque.
- The post-processing pipeline samples the screen buffer in a 5×5 pattern. Performance may be slow on low-end hardware.
