High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Tone Mapping 

Thanks!

could the tumblin rushmeier tonemapper fix that?

you could say that his channel needs more exposure

Thanks! My videos seem to have finally found the right audience lol

That's a great idea! I'll add that to the list of video plans.

@@Acerola_t Looking forward to it :D

there isnt really an objectively best tone mapper it's very context dependent lol aces is just the default 'looks good' tone mapper

I was going to say industry standard but I was too tired to remember if that was the term you used.

This is very helpful, thank you!

Technically yes exposure should go before bloom but it's simpler to have exposure as part of the color correction pass, in an ideal world you have exposure as a parameter of the bloom pass too.

@@Acerola_t yeah, makes sense. It's the same problem I always have when applying motion blur and lens blur. The physically accurate way it so apply them at the same time, like in a camera (or just a plain pathtrace render engine), but in software like After Effects one has to be before the other. I usually go with motion blur first and then lens blur. I know Nuke has a way to implement them both accuratelly at the same time.

I'm gonna explain auto exposure in my next vid, don't worry!

@@Acerola_t Awesome! What a great channel! Could do without the pink-boxed video, but the rest is fantastic! I enjoy watching your newer video more than your old ones. For some reason, the Minecraft shader video wasn't as fun to watch; still good content, but didn't grab me the same as the newer ones.

@@Saturn2888 Yeah I've learned a lot since the minecraft video lol Thanks for watching!

That's an interesting idea, I will try it out sometime lol

I lied :)

It really depends, I personally do really well in formal education environments and I prospered a lot in school. If it wasn't for my first few college classes I wouldn't be interested in graphics or be making these youtube videos at all. One thing I really had to learn and struggled with was self motivation and teaching myself skills, which is incredibly valuable and necessary if you want to succeed in these fields. Game development especially, a portfolio is necessary to get a job anywhere and school isn't going to help you with that very much. If you are going to university and are choosing between computer science/game dev, you should do computer science since it's a much more valuable degree and opens you up to way more jobs than game dev specifically, I know many people who went for game dev and learned that they hate working in the industry and are now stuck. School is not a necessity though, there's many people who teach themselves how to program, make programs to demonstrate those skills, and show them to employers and get hired. What school does is it provides you with a formal structure to learn, as well as giving you tons of connections which are invaluable. I wouldn't be working at Intel if I didn't make a connection during my time at university.

Dang. Thanks for the response. I will look into the computer science thing see if I develop and interest for it

@@gscruz7840 update?

@@Acerola_t Just wanted to say I really appreciate your response :)

Honestly, the likeliest reason is that windows and YT don't give enough of a fuck to work on a solution

That tech is so new that I'm not sure if there's really an industry standard approach, but I think you skip tonemapping yeah gamma correction goes after tone mapping because you don't want to apply an exponent to a term that is outside the range 0-1, I am unsure how you would apply gamma correction in an hdr display context or if you would even need to.

It's also built-in for URP and HDRP in Unity as far as I know, but the point of my videos is to understand how those built-in features work under the hood.

@@gregoryford2532 no

No. Those are 3 quantities that define an element in the HSV color space, a color. Temperature+tint and exposure are operations or transformations on color space elements. But you can have a saturation factor, which is still not even close color temperature, a hue shift, which is not as far off but still not even close to tint, and a value factor, which actually can behave kind of like exposure, but the calculations are probably different. And exposure is often quantified in "stops", so the factor there changes exponentially.

I record in an rv

no any hdr effects come before tone mapping

Thank you for the reply in this older video!! Keep doing amazing stuff

Honestly I'm not sure how it works, yeah it needs some representation cpu side but I'm not sure how games like breath of the wild do it.

@@Acerola_t from what I would implement it, i would do smaller chunk that can get three states "normal" "on fire" "burned" cpu side, only the chunk exists, however gpu side chunk have grass inside the fire spread would be calculated cpu side and the graphical effect gpu side however, since i'm not a graphical dev nor a shader dev, I have no clue if this is even possible (and i'm not even talking about optimisation as well.... you cannot really optimise something you don't know how to do haha) inside a chunk if seeking more realism it would probably be possible to give the starting position of the fire (gpu side) to adapt the graphical effect, syncing it to th cpu calculation to spread it. would be squar-ish but maybe hexagonal shaped chunk would do it ? sub-chunking might get too much ressources so that's the only part i can see and in botw from what I remember the grass is not really burned, it is bent to the ground with a black texture and burning always is a small circle (when it does not propagate) I know far cry serie also have propagating fire, I could try to contact a friend that worked at ubisoft to see if he know how they did this (dunno if he'd respond though)

Or... You could use the Power of AI!!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AGCH1GR7pPU.html
