Coherent volume tools

Six projections intersect to carve voxels. A painted pixel without a matching voxel is lost in POV and can appear as a chopped-off monster.

Depth6 / 8

If source side/top approximations visibly amputate a monster even without reported missing pixels, use Rebuild side + top from front to start from a consistently thick profile, then hand-sculpt its side and top. This deliberately replaces side/top artwork, and is undoable.

Repair adds side/top/front coverage where needed, then mirrors opposite silhouettes. It preserves existing front pixels; it cannot invent authentic unseen character art.

Using the studio

1. Choose an embedded model or make a new one. Paint the front, viewer-left and top orthographic tiles. Use the Reverse tab for independent back, viewer-right and bottom textures.

2. Rotate the 3D model; orange corner marks show painted pixels with no supporting 3D volume. Repair maintains existing profiles by filling missing crossings.

3. Export a ZIP of .TIL paths. Extract it into the Mindrealm v1 r58/ project root, merging the assets/ directory. Restart Mindrealm to reload tile files.

Format: native Mindrealm 8×8, EGA color planes and 4-plane inverted alpha. No PNG conversion.

Orientation: LEFT and RIGHT are named for the viewer looking at the model’s FRONT, not the model’s own left/right. Back/right/bottom have separately authored materials. The reverse faces are mirrored spatially when projected, not automatically color-copied.

Note: Five supplemental directions in the source r55 library were approximated. True side/top art still needs hand-authoring.
