Pre-rendered background game tools

This project is a pipeline for making pre-rendered background games in the style of PS1 Resident Evil and Final Fantasy. The tools are intended as a end-to-end solution from the creation of the backgrounds in Blender to the loading of the data in your game engine of choice.

Usage

Blender Add-on

The Blender add-on automates exporting a Blender scene into an MFT level. After building and installing the project, the mft_blender_addon directory can be zipped and installed using the Install from disk option in Blenders settings. Pre-built addons can be found in the releases (Windows and MacOs only).

C++ Library

tbd: The libary has an api to read MFT level files and stream level data for use with a game engine.
