NonToon Bridge for Blender - Render lilxyzw's NonToon (PBR + NPR) in Blender as in Unity (.mat import, 14 verified cases, unofficial)

lilxyzw's new shader NonToon, straight into Blender.

NonToon Bridge is a dedicated render engine plus auto-setup tool that reproduces Unity NonToon materials in Blender as they are. Pick the .mat files from your Unity project; textures, parameters and enabled keywords load automatically and NonToon's PBR + NPR look appears in Blender. This is a separate product from lilToon Bridge.

■ WHAT IT IS

• A faithful Blender port of NonToon / Shader-Core (lilxyzw, Zlib License), transpiled from the HLSL source.
• Not an approximation. The same scene is compared per pixel against Unity; all 14 cases measure SSIM >= 0.99 (best 0.9999). The full table is in the README.

■ FEATURES

• One-click .mat import: textures via GUID, feature toggles via shader keywords
• Supported shader features: shading, normal map, rim light, specular, matcap (add / multiply), lighten, outline, cutout, dither, transparent, distance fade, detail map, fur
• Dedicated render engine "NonToon Bridge": viewport preview + F12 render
• Material editing UI in Blender's properties panel

■ REQUIREMENTS

• Blender 4.5 LTS (verified on Windows)
• NonToon 0.1.2 / Shader-Core 0.1.5 materials
• Your VRChat avatar FBX plus the Unity project

■ INSTALL

1. Blender Preferences > Add-ons > install the zip
2. Switch the render engine to "NonToon Bridge"
3. File > Import > NonToon Material (.mat) and pick your Unity .mat
4. Done. F12 renders with the NonToon look
