ImageSpace
Revision as of 22:19, 10 February 2012 by imported>JohnnyWing (fixed link)
Overview
ImageSpace systems can configure the base display effects for a cell or worldspace. This would allow designers to drive post-processed "film" effects through the editor, giving much greater control and more of a "film" feel. Some of the effects include blurring, coloring, and HDR/Bloom effects. The ImageSpace form can be opened from the World Menu.
Editor Location
Data Fields
Imagespace Systems: Each system has a unique form editor ID. By right clicking in the window, you can add or duplicate a system.
HDR
Parameters for high dynamic range rendering. These values are for calculating RGB settings on the ImageSpace beyond the 255 maximum.
- Eye Adapt Speed: Controls how quickly the adapted scene luminance chases the actual luminance. Between 0.0 and 100.0 representing the percentage of the difference between the adapted scene luminance and the actual luminance that is closed each frame (assuming 30fps).
- A value of 0.0 means the adapted luminance will never change.
- A value of 100.0 will never "chase" so that the adapted luminance is always equal to actual luminance.
- Typical values are in the 2.0-5.0 range.
- Bloom Blur Radius: The amount of bloom. Integers only. Cannot be turned off.
- 1.0 Min blur.
- 7.0 Max blur.
- Bloom Threshold: Controls the threshold for which pixels in the scene bloom.
- Pixels less bright than this value do not bloom.
- Pixels more bright than this value bloom more the farther they are passed the threshold.
- Bloom Scale: Controls how bright the bloom is.
- Target Luminance: The luminance the scene will adapt towards.
- If the actual scene luminance is lower than this value the brightness will adapt higher to simulate the eye getting used to seeing in low light.
- If the actual scene luminance is higher than this value the brightness will adapt lower to simulate the eye getting used to seeing in bright light.
- I want to try making this value a range so that a luminance within the range doesn't adapt higher or lower.
- Sunlight Scale: (non-imagespace) Scale the sunlight.
- Sky Scale: (non-imagespace) Scale the sky.
Cinematic
Enables tint, brightness, saturation, and/or contrast modifiers.
- Tint:
- R/G/B: Overlays the corresponding color. Strength is from 0 to 255
- Value: The alpha(opacity) of the colors overlayed. This setting alone will never raise the color level high enough to completely wash out the scene. At a strength of 255 it will render the entire scene in shades of the RGB color.
- Brightness: Increases the brightness, setting either number to 100 causes a create white-out. Setting both to 0 will result in complete darkness.
- Saturation: Increases the saturation of the screen. Setting the number to a negative will reverse the colors displayed(blue will render yellow...). Setting the saturation to 0 will remove all color from the scene(scene renders black and white).
- Contrast: Amplifies the bright and dark spots in the scene. A negative number here will inverse bright and dark spots and then amplify them accordingly.
