What is NostalgiaVX?

This is quite an interesting project with its very own niche. As some of you might know, basically all ready-to-use packs that use voxels for their lighting in some way are going for a realistic look, so I was wondering if its any good in a stylised pack like Nostalgia Shader. Thus the idea of NostalgiaVX was born, but unlike any other pack it uses a combined lighting approach that leverages both a light propagation volume and path-tracing to create performant high-fidelity results at a reasonable loss in lighting accuracy.

NostalgiaVX is available for Tier 2 Patrons (5€), with occasional dropdowns to Tier 1 (1€). The screenspace path-tracing in Nostalgia Shader should provide you with a reasonably good free alternative if you can't pay or decide not to pay.

Development Update – July 2024
