A downloadable plugin

A plugin for blockbench to make 3d renders like on blender but easily

  1.  First of all, this doesn't replace Blender; it's just a plugin for creating renders like Blender does. It has realistic features, but it's not a viable option if you want to be an animator or make a short film.
  2. This project will inevitably have bugs, and you shouldn't expect very frequent updates since it's just a boredom project—though it will still improve a lot (and already has, as you can see in the images). Blockbench will never have that feature, because otherwise it wouldn't have its signature "bad" Minecraft aesthetic.
  3. Q: Can I make animations with this? Answer: Yes, you can, but first, you need a plugin called "Screen Recorder." You also need to spend a lot of time exploring what the plugin can do, as some features aren't well-explained—such as how to activate lights or other objects—since these aren't standard objects, but rather items added by the plugin itself.
  4. I don't know if the plugin will stop working in the next update of Blockbench (just a heads-up).

The problem is that most things don't work, but they will continue to be improved.

3d effects:BlenderMy plugin
LightsYesYes
ShadowsYesWorks well  sometimes it doesn't
show the shadows where it should.
ParticlesYesn version 1.3 is more customizable
Post process fxYesIt has most of the effects, but some
still behave strangely, and the rest are WIPs.
Day night sun lightYesYes, but it only works for renders, not for modifying it during animation.
MirrorsYesIt works well, but it isn't very customizable.
Smoth shadingYesYes but with light bugs sometimes
AntialiasingYes Fxaa only, but on export is on 2x
lod (level of detail)YesWip and dont work
Camera culling?YesYes, but only the block mode, the face mode just do the same than the block mode
AtmosphereYesWip
Save?YesYeah, but I'll be honest with you: with every update, it gets wiped and not everything is saved. It doesn't happen with this update, but I'm working on making sure it does.
video/photo export?yesyes, still in wip but works perfecly fine (only on pc)

The problem is that most things don't work, but they will continue to be improved.
