Content Scripting Python Post-Process

From RexWiki

Preface

Post-processing effects can be used in the viewer to make the world more lively, to simulate some weather effect or to just make things look "different". The effects are similar to the ones used in image editing programs like Photoshop, however this time the effect is used on top of a moving "image" (your view) instead of a static image.

The post-processing effects can be turned on from the server using a script. However, clients have also power to turn on/off effects from View->Postprocess menu.

Script

def EventTouch(self,vAvatar):

8 Posterize
