GIBLION 2024 Anime-NPR-Toon Scene Generation Framework is a next generation Anime scene creation tool for Unity3D URP Pipeline, with support for Unity 2022.3 LTS and Unity 6 LTS in RenderGraph mode.
The system includes multiple toon, anime, outlining and non photorealistic rendering (NPR) shading techniques in both shader and image effects, blob based creation of cloud and tree formations, particle based foliage generation, dynamic wires system, toon water, dynamic Wind Walker style grass system, spline based River generator with toon river water shading and much more.

– Integration with Sky Master ULTIMATE and InfiniGRASS
– Decal system for interactive regions (TBD)
(*) Notes on the Interactive Instanced grass field system: The grass field module purpose is to emulate a grass field as seen in Hyrule field, with the grass created above zero terrain height and adapted to the ground using a depth camera. It is possible to create more than one grass fields and below zero height and have added multiple demos with such in the latest v1.2, and also a tutorial video with description of the process in the comments, this mode requires a few manual setup steps.Â
Note the system is not meant to be a general purpose vegetation system, for this purpose it is recommended to use the grass field generator together with the InfiniGRASS system which can cover more use cases, including optimization for trees and foliage that can use user defined custom meshes.
In the upcoming versions more streamlining in the addition of the extra fields will be added and also more grass mesh types, this is work in progress for next updates. The above information will be updated accordingly.
