i made light booleans for my stylized lighting plugin! it is very nice being able to exclude/include certain lights in certain areas (and cast basic shadows)

added cel shading to my custom lighting plugin for UE5 :) it’s handled in the actual lighting calculation, so it works properly with lighting and shadows (no post processing except the outlines). still WIP but really happy with it!

it’s realtime too, running at 120fps atm. dynamic shadows tank the performance but i haven’t really started optimizing that yet, so 🤞
