Turning textures monochrome

Graphics Shaders & Materials

Is it possible to render a scene in unity as monochrome (black and white)? I am creating some walk-thrus which are textured with coloured textures. However I would like to give the option to walk-thru the same scene in black and white (or even sepia). Instead of creating a duplicate set of textures in black white I wonder if it’s possible to do something in unity (script or otherwise) that would ‘switch off (toggle on/off)’ colour.

thanks for you r help.

Hi,

If you are using Pro:

  1. Go to ‘Assets’ >> ‘Import Package’ >> ‘Image Effects Pro’.
  2. Select the camera in the editor that is rendering your scene.
  3. Go to ‘Component’ >> ‘Image Effects’ >> and choose either Greyscale or Sepia Tone.

Oh cool. Thanks. Although I’ll need to get Pro now. But it follows that it’s possible to script something for users of Unity Free,

thanks.
