Detailed Description

PlayStation 2 implementation of the Toon Plugin for RenderWare Graphics.

Platform Specific Information

The PlayStation 2 implementation of RpToon's shading and silhouette rendering runs entirely on VU1 with no CPU cost. To make this possible however, the implementation has additional requirements on toon objects for performance reasons:

All Toon objects MUST be tri-stripped and tri-stripped such that winding order is obeyed. Tri-lists are not supported.

PlayStation 2 uses a subtractive blending operation to combine the shading texture with the material and base texture colors. To generate similar results to the other platforms which use multiplicative blending, the shading textures need to be inverted for PlayStation 2.

Some RpToon features are not supported on PlayStation 2 for performance reasons:

Vertex Thicknesses are ignored.

Ink Perspective scale factors are ignored.

Crease edges are ignored and not rendered at all.

Some general RenderWare features are not supported on RpToon PlayStation 2 for performance reasons:

There is no true clipping on RpToon PlayStation 2, only culling. This means when using toon rendered worlds, you must be more careful so as not to intersect the view frustum with the world, or noticeable polygon drop out will occur.

Fog is not supported.
Face culling is not supported.
