Enabling HDR color picker for shuriken particles?

Hi, is it possible to use the HDR Color Picker for shuriken particle colors? I need them to be affected by bloom but I couldn’t find anything on it. Thanks

I’m also wondering how the problem could be solved. Would it be possible to modify the particle shader to give it a lighter base color than 1.0? Would that maybe be a workaround that also works with the shuriken color modifications without waiting for the devs to change how the colorpickers in Shuriken work?

Particle.Color is not a 32bit floating point value but a 32bit value (not HDR) thus even if you could add HDR color picker it would do no good for you. What I’d like to suggest is that you should post this on the feature request or on the official Shuriken tread here: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/official-particle-system-shuriken-improvements.248094/page-3

I suggested HDR color picker on the closed beta forum before 5.2 shipped but there was no response from Unity devs. I don’t know the reasons behind this but I’ll try again on 5.3 forums :wink:
