[SOLVED] Washed-out UI textures after upgrading to 2x Editor only

Help & Support
1

Hey everyone! ended up upgrading to 2x recently. I now notice that my UI textures all appear washed out … what gives? I heard this may be due to rendering pipeline / gamma correction changes but I’m unable to figure it out :slightly_smiling_face: Is there like… a gamma correction or color space setting somewhere that I’m missing?

UPDATE: I’m looking at CameraComponent | Engine API Reference - v2.6.2 and using camera.gammaCorrection = 0 has solved my issue :slightly_smiling_face:

I’d suggest you don’t change gammaCorrection on the camera.
But instead load your color textures as srgb. For example see this example: PlayCanvas Examples

it loads the texture this way, note the srgb parameter:

red_button_atlas: new pc.Asset('red_button_atlas', 'texture', {
        url: `${rootPath}/static/assets/button/red_button_atlas.png`
    }, { srgb: true })

Shouldn’t he just ensure sRGB is checked for his UI texture assets in the Inspector? :smile: I’m assuming you’re using the Editor, @Charlie_Van_Norman.

Yes if you’re using Editor, sorry, I was under the impression this was engine only, which my solution applies to.
