Whaaaat? Is that really in RM? That look totally amazing, reminds me of Resident Evil on PS1! SO COOL!

This is amazing!!! Kudos to you for pulling a 3D shooter off on RPG Maker.

Unfortunately this project would be close to impossible to finish from the start. I am sure developer understood that and abandoned the project.
RPG Maker MV is in no way optimized for 3D. The closest you can get get would be Dungeon Crawler "fake" 3D. As far as I know you can not actually load 3D models - walls and floor are 2D graphics. His props seem to be 2D as well. Similar to ES Daggerfall. Everything are sprites basically. Only camera viewpoint is 3D.
Even if you could finish it, the performance would be the number one issue.

You mean:

Yeah, I'm working on something much smaller than that and I already have to improve some things here and there (reduce number of polys, etc.).
That said, let me tell you what I learned is possible (though not always viable):
-load 3D models via plugin commands;
-most graphics will be cubes: walls, floor, ceiling, etc. And yes, "fake" 3D;
-parallax #1: background image (like: sky, "underfloor", etc...things we're used to in RMMV)
-parallax #2: textures with a "depth" feeling, like bricks, stones and so;
-ground via height map.


I wonder what the dev used, in case of the said project.
