Realtime brightness/gamma adjust ?

by Orion Elenzil · in Torque Game Engine · 03/16/2006 (10:34 am) · 2 replies

Hi all -

in TGE1.3 / TLK1.3.5,

i'd like to implement a "brightness" control allowing the user to adjust the brightness/gamma of the entire scene during runtime.

i know about videoSetGammaCorrection(),
but that adjusts the gamma for your whole monitor, not just torque, which is kind of rude.

any other solutions ?

maybe i'll cross-post this into the Lighting Kit forum.

You own the Lighting Kit? So check out the new DRL resource. It implements dynamic range lighting, and automatic tone mapping. With the correct values, you can force a manual brightness and contrast setting to the scene.

Thanks Manoel, that looks perfect.
Hopefully we can get it to work w/ TGE 1.3!
