What is current state of RPRMakie.jl @sdanisch? I want to create 3D volume plot of Neutron Star or Black Hole using RPRMakie.jl. I have HDF5 data of simulation. I would like to interactively visualize the internal parts of Neutron star and Black Holes. Can RPRMakie.jl be used for getting 3D volume plot?

I have obtained this 3D scatter plot below 👇 using GLMakie.jl but i think for realistic visualization ray tracing etc. would do best.
