Tips
-Ghost is a modification of Dance InterventionP's Mirror.
-By default, the fade effect will go bottom-up. By inverting the x and y parameter values, you can cause the fade effect to go top-down instead.
-Harigane recommends setting parameter values of x=-20, y=20 or x=20, y=-20.
-When using this effect on multiple models, there may be transparency issues when the models stand in front of each other. To resolve this, Harigane suggests either turning self-shadow off, or by hiding the models in the Main MME tab rather than applying Ghost_Object.fx to them.
