bloom effect.

[HoneyFox]

Actually, i may use it frequently when im watching a replay. At least, this can improve graphic in some extent and may be good for publicization?

[smoth]

I still like it and would like to see it.

[Forboding Angel]

I agree, a bloom effect would be made of win. Especially since we could customize it.

@smoth, why a gadget (unless oyu didn't want the user to be able to turn it on or off). I can't think of why bloom would need to be synced. Or am I just missing something obvious here?

[Sheekel]

while we're on the discussion of lua graphics, how about a sun corona?

hur hur, I see what you did there argh.

[Argh]

Who's joking?

That's pretty complete sourcecode, you'd just need to put the fastest bloom examples into widget:DrawScreen() I'd think, with a simple cutoff in Initialize to weed out users who can't user shaders...

I'd do it myself, but meh, I personally hate bloom.

[REVENGE]

Bloom + HDR ftw.

There is a Option to end the upcoming GoodFeature vs. BadFeature War:

[V] Activates/Deactivates Bloom

[smoth]

it would be a nice option, I think it would help to make spring a more modern engine. Bloom with adjustable strenght would be *VERY NICE*.

[Falcrum]

I agree... Bloom i nice effect

[Forboding Angel]

Not to be pokey or anything... But would someone please make this? Give it an on/offable button.

Please? I'll put a Krogoth into Evolution if you do

[ironized]

it would look good, when showing your map off..

[1v0ry_k1ng]

bloom in moderation looks good. bloom done over the top ala just cause and other games released when it was first appearing obviously did not look good.

[Kloot]

Would this be enough bloom for you?

[overkill]

NO

[Otherside]

needs moa bloom obviously not enuff

[Warlord Zsinj]

MOAR

I wonder if you could dynamically change it so that it gets like that during a nuke explosion...

[123vtemp]

Bloom can both improve and degrade an image's appearance.

[Otherside]

zsinj sup com does that during com deaths sort of
