[Stage - Texture, Vertex, Import - Battlefield]

Lanayru Desert as seen in Skyward Sword. For this one I exploited a weird graphical effect generally regarded as a glitch and a nuisance, and apparently dubbed "the Harry Potter effect" by the Mario Kart Wii modding community. Basically I have the "present" desert models hiding the "past" grassy ones, and when the timeshift stones activate, a sphere hides the "present" and reveals the "past".
Characters turn invisible inside and behind the timeshift stones' ranges as well, so I couldn't have them in the playing field or foreground. They had to be where they'd never overlap characters from a normal camera angle. I really did want platforms that appear and disappear inside them. I HAD to have the stage be functionally affected by such a cool gimmick, though, so a machine in the background of the stage makes the platforms move when the stone next to it is active. It's the best I could come up with even if it doesn't quite comply with the original game's rules for how timeshift stones work.

It's difficult to do the stage justice in the screenshots, so please check out the video. Or, you know, just play on it! Hope you enjoy it.
