Title: Whites in bitmaps
Post by: Dean81 on 2020-05-08, 23:48:52
Hi All,

So I understand that if i’m creating a white label I shouldn’t go above 80%(ish). This is fine when using the sliders but what if I’m plugging a bitmap into the diffuse channel and the bitmap I’m using has pure white elements? What’s the best approach to avoid the design blowing out or over exposing?

Any help or advise would be hugely appreciated.

Cheers
D

Use Cinemas Filter node and reduce the lightnesss value.
See screengrab below showing the node and the standard material versions (same result)
