Make Visual Novels EZ-RGB Remap for RenPy

A message from Stella, that person behind this pack:

“Make Visual Novels exists to help devs make cooler, weirder, awesomer visual novels. We do that by running events, making packs, and managing stuff like the VNDev.Wiki! But running events, competitions, and resources costs money.  Buying this pack helps me fund new shader packs, DevTalks, and keep our community thriving.”

What is this?

This is an useful little pack that lets you color swap and retone your backgrounds, characters, UIs, and other graphics in Ren'Py by applying a color remap.

This pack contains 14 premade color maps: 

• RGBNeon gives everything a vibrant and dramatic shift.
• RGBNightvision applys a monochrome green and black.  Great for mascots that hang out on your wrist.
• RGBPastel apples a light color shift, great when mixed with other effects.
• RGBHeat applies a red monochromatic shift.  It's like Sepia, but not.
• RGBDusty mutes the vibrancy of all colors.
• RGBUnderwater is a blue monochromatic  shift.  Great for aquarium scenes.
• RGBLava is a bright yellow and red chromatic shift, light colors turn yellow and darker tones turn red.
• RGBInvert inverts red and greens and lights and darks. Use dramatic stings and vine booms with it sparingly.
• RGBMetal applies a sliding desaturation.  At high strengths, produces stylish color shifts.
• RGBDream applies a lighter version of the default map.
• RGBCold applies a spectrum of cold colors.
• RGBFire applies a spectrum of hot colors.
• RGBAlien applies a dramatic chromatic shift with a patterned effect.
• RGBGlitch applies a chaotic color shift warping otherwise organized aesthetics into a chaotic mess.

You also get a template so you can make your own!  Wow!

What’s it for?

Slap it on backgrounds, characters, whole scenes—whatever.
Want a dreamy flashback filter? Done.
Want your love interest to radiate toxic glitch energy? Also done.
Need to simulate alien hallucination goo? Donezo.

What are these files?

• An image folder zip, containing the premade RGB maps for you to use.
• EZRGB.rpy, which contains the shader code itself.
• EZRGB_Transforms.rpy, which is where you'll want to be most of the time.  It contains the transform definitions you can use to apply these effects.

Instructions:

Unzip and drop the the files in your Ren’Py project's game folder folder. Use the included transforms(in EZRGB_Transforms.rpy) just like you would use any other.   For custom maps, use the RGBCustom transform, and include a path to your map and the strength with it.  eg. "at RGBCustom("images\mycustommap.png",1.0)"  1,0 is 100%, 0.5 is 50%.  2.0 is 200%, etc.  No additional code or transform writing required!
