Get Enhanced Chromatic Aberration now on Fab!
www.fab.com/listings/885...
As a bonus, I'm also including Chromatic Aberrated Glass, a collection of exotic translucent materials that refract light in ways you've never seen before:
Enhanced Chromatic Aberration handles even extreme settings, letting you use it as a special effect:
Unreal like most games does aberration by just splitting and the RGB channels. This produces hard edges and only extracts a few colors at a time.
Enhanced Chromatic Aberration is on the bottom. You can see it extracts a full prismatic color spectrum with smooth lensing:
Chromatic aberration is a trait of physical camera lenses. They refract light so each color hits film/sensors at a different angle, especially towards the sides of the lens.
Video games and virtual cinematography inject aberration to invoke the feeling of a lens.
Before/after:
I just released Enhanced Chromatic Aberration for Unreal Engine!
Get high quality multisampling camera lens refraction inside the engine. Achieve filmic style with smooth blending and a full spectrum of colors:
My plugin for #UnrealEngine is almost done! It lets you blend any mesh. Not just landscape, not PDO.
This magic lets you blend anything!๐คฏ

The magic of cognitive dissonance. Your caring about X is making them, even if they don't want to admit it to themselves, feel bad for not caring about X, and therefore you are the source of them feeling bad.
Pretty amazing find. I don't even know any stores selling boxed software anymore besides Gamestop
looks a lil cloudy to me
You can get CHROMIA exotic color grading now on Fab:

Exotic color correlations:
Modulate your colors in ways you never thought possible. Give an iridescent glow to your shiniest surfaces, or make creeping polychrome shadows.
Smart Color Curves:
Make sweeping changes to your hue, saturation, and brightness, while preserving the maximum dynamic range of those values.
Tricolor Palettizer:
Choose a tricolor visual identity and shape your image around it. Shift colors towards your palette, or emphasize colors that already match it.
CHROMIA uses the Oklab perceptual color space to make your color transitions silky.
CHROMIA exotic color grading for Unreal Engine is now available!
I made CHROMIA to help create bold, opinionated looks for games or cinematics. Here's what it can do for you:
Coming soon!
I mean the way they set you up to [REDACTED] then [REDACTED] as soon as you [REDACTED] so you have to [REDACTED] just so you can [REDACTED] what you [REDACTED],
it's absolutely deviant, I'm married, this feels wrong
Blue Prince is probably #2. It's got me all hot and bothered which is why I can't stop posting about it.
Great puzzle games have a kinky kind of dom-sub flirtation thing going on where they dangle puzzles and solutions right in your face where they know you can't see them.
The naughtiest most sexual game I've ever played is The Witness. M-rated stuff, 100% not for kids.
Pleased to report that my skeleton and I are cohabitating much better now.
We're having a few boundary issues but at least he'll always have my back.
This is the most consecutive words anyone has managed to write about Blue Prince without spoiling anything
actually it might still contain Blue Prince Spoilers
The thing I hate about Blue Prince is that the more I play Blue Prince the more I love Blue Prince
and yet I would love Blue Prince more if I could play Blue Prince less while trying to play Blue Prince
Blue Prince players know what I'm talking about
SEND HELP there is a SKELETON INSIDE MY BODY
Here's the much-cheaper way to fade a shadow for these raymarched materials:
Dithered shadows!
They're not especially convincing but let you skip raymarching in the shadow pass entirely.
This is EXPENSIVE! Like, unusably expensive. Every single light needs to repeat the raymarching in the shadow pass. Even with just the directional light, on RTX 4090:
Shadows on: 40 FPS
Shadows off: 120 FPS
I've got a reasonable (if less pretty) approach I'll post later.
