Bloom Shader

Unity Engine
1

:? Noob Alert! :?

I’m working on writing a bloom shader for the camera - while I took a look at the Island Demo’s shaders, I didn’t get a whole lot out of those. Really, I’m not altogether sure where to start. Anyone mind giving me a bit of help?

Noob alert indeed! :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks to an anonymous PM pointing me to a little-known page in the Unity Manual, I have been “reminded” that Glow is Unity’s Version of Bloom. Thus, there is no point for this topic. My apologies to the 87 readers who have hit this.

:frowning:

Here is the link, in case anyone else comes looking for the answer: http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/Components/script-GlowEffect.html

bloom no glow?
is’t a same effect?

5

Bloom and glow are usually the same thing.

How can I properly implement HDR effect in unity?

7

With unity pro 2.6+ you can up to a given border.
That border is that you only have 16bit/channel textures, no 32bit ones

Anyone help?
Where can I find a real HDR shader or script?
