Help & Support

Hello.

2 questions:

  1. It’s possible to write a shader which will apply bloom effect only for selected entities?
  2. Apply bloom effect only for emission map, is it possible?

Thank you.

Yes, it is possible, you can simply make a separate render to texture where you would apply shader that paints everything black + emissive (if it is set on material), and then use that texture to do your blur and post-effect add over screen.

Thank you, Max. It helped.

I made the second camera which rendering to texture and set culling mask (only render a duplicate object with emission). After that, I modify standard post processing script and detect if the rendered pixel of texture contains not black value then apply bloom. And it works.

Now I try separate different part of emission for various intensity and bloom size. Thank you.

Nicely done! If you have simple project with implementation, worth sharing it :wink:
