Blind Shader

A lightweight toon shader that transforms Minecraft into an anime-style world with cel-shading and cartoon aesthetics.

Features

• Cartoon Banding System - 8-band color quantization per channel for that classic animated look
• Advanced Outline Detection - Depth-based edge detection that highlights block boundaries
• Enhanced Colors - Subtle saturation boost makes the world more vibrant
• Smooth Vignette - Cinematic darkening at screen edges
• Normal-Based Lighting - Directional lighting for better depth perception
• Performance Friendly - Runs smoothly even on older systems (~5-10 FPS impact)

Technical Details

• GLSL 120 compatibility for maximum support
• Multiple render targets (MRT) for advanced rendering
• Optimized composite pass with minimal texture sampling
• 4-directional depth checking for accurate outlines

Known Limitations

• Transparent blocks (water, glass) don't receive outlines due to depth buffer constraints
• Outline thickness may decrease at extreme render distances
• Outlines appear slightly more prominent during nighttime
