Editing the Code Parameters
-Line 11: #define MIPMAPTEX_SIZE: Determines the texture size for anisotropic filtering. Setting this value to '0' disables the anisotropic filtering.
Tips
-Harigane recommends creating a flat, 2D asset to display a still image with. While it is possible to apply the effect onto 3D assets, it may create undesirable results.
-When creating a 2D plane, you can type 'screen.bmp' into the texture section and, when loaded with this effect into MMD, it will create a screen that works with MMD's innate screen capture mode.
-EasyBillboard is a modification of Dance Intervention-P's Laughing Man effect.
