REAL-TIME PIXEL FILTER

Welcome to RetroRaster, the real-time pixelated graphics effect for Roblox!

RetroRaster is a super optimised real-time multi-threaded textured ray tracer for Roblox.  Many rendering tricks and opimisations has been made that make RetroRaster perform well above 60 FPS on a mid-range computer at 100x100.

RetroRaster aims to accurately pixelate a Roblox scene, with textures, skyboxes and all.

RetroRaster is perfect for any Roblox game or project that wishes to achieve a retro or pixelated style!


FEATURES

  • Many rendering and optimisation settings to alter for your needs
  • Runtime setting adjustments
  • Sphere projected skyboxes
  • Texturing
  • Reflections
  • Transparency
  • Shading and fog
  • Support for Lighting (TimeOfDay, PointLights and SpotLights)
  • Motion blur (Also used to hide artefacts)


INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE

The original goal with RetroRaster was to get above 60 FPS at 100x100.

After months of researching, testing algorithms, and ideas to get RetroRaster running as fast as possible. Also maintaining a high fidelity image with a great refresh rate without large artefacts.

A basic non-optimised roblox raytracer will only get as high as 15 FPS at 100x100, which was on my powerful PC. 

With RetroRaster, you can achieve framerates as high as 120 to even as high as 230+ FPS at 100x100 depending on the complexity of your game, your device and your render settings.

This is an innovative new rendering engine and the first of it's kind with these capabilities for Roblox.

NOTE: Please be aware that RetroRaster will have limited use on certain meshes with textures, as this uses part collisions for the rendering output.

If you wish to give feedback, suggest features or changes, I recommend sending them to the official roblox dev forum thread for RetroRaster which you can find here.

Please note; Currently, due to the use of EditableImage, RetroRaster is only useable to certain users that meet the following requirements:

Looks incredible, and stunning. This would be so neat in horror and obscure games. To bad I can't afford it lol (Not meant to be hating, good for you for getting that cash).

like, I can't find any other filters online.

can you make a worse version and make it free?

what the fuck is the price?

It's a lifetime license

This is pretty impressive from a tech standpoint, so ofc their work has to be paid

Think of it like this: if it took a 5 days (a work week) to make, it's like you paid someone 10$/day to work on this

Hey i bought this, and the textures dont work in the slightest, is this to be expected?


(I compared the "render off / render on" image to the actual engine, and the parts with the textures dont load inclient. I realized that the textures are supposed to wrap around the entire part, but theyre not even rendering on the face they were placed on)

This is how it looks ingame, without the textures rendering

you gotta upload the texture yourself, not sure why but thats how it works

but will that only work on client in that case aswell or?

It should work both in-studio and in-game as EditableImage is now released. However, roblox updated how using roblox texture assets for editableImage works. You can no longer use public assets. You have to own the texture, and also there are new rate limits, so overall, the texture feature right now is no where near as nice as it used to be, so use this feature sparingly.

Very happy with my purchase!
I can't wait for this to be improved even further, great work!

Why 60 dollars?

(+1)

I decided to go with 60 AUD because of the main reason being is that this is a one of a kind. 

A pixel filter this good hasn't been made on roblox before, and add that with the amount of time and effort that went into this as well. 

Another reason is that this is a one time purchase, meaning you get all future versions for free that you can download at any time.

Right now, 60 AUD is ~38.81 USD.

Imma just be honest, that's outrageous for a Roblox raytracer, no matter how efficient it is.

I'm not trying to tell you what you absolutely have to do; it's your project after all—But I feel like just asking people to credit you and making the project free to use would be the best way to go for something like this, plus it'd be more accessible to smaller creators who can't afford it (mainly minors).

I thought about this and I spent a long time trying to settle on a price, but ultimately, 38 USD for a textured roblox raytracer that can allow 60+ FPS gameplay on most devices is the reason why this is priced at 60 AUD.

Nothing like this has been done before, so i really can’t just give this away for free. In the real world, high quality assets (especially a one of a kind) will have to cost at least something unfortunately.

Im sorry I dont have any other option at the moment.
