animated color: how to smooth?

Questions & Answers
1

hi there,

found a script changing skybox-color when pressing a key, which is wonderful. my question now is, how can i smooth this animation with an easing-in/-out?

maybe anyone can help!

here is my code:

var color1 = Color.red;
var color2 = Color.blue;
var duration = 10;

function Start() {
}

function Update () {
    if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Return)) {
        camera.backgroundColor = color1;

    } else {
        camera.backgroundColor = color2;        
    } 
}

thank you! andreas

You can use

`Color.Lerp(color1,color2,blendValue)`

which (blendValue = 0 ) means color1 and (blendValue = 1) means color2.

http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/ScriptReference/Color.Lerp.html

then you should smoothly change the blendValue. you can do this with an animation clip or any other method.

Hope that helps.
