vortxGE 2.0 progress : Bloom3

Published February 17, 2012

Well I think I'm done with bloom for now, I still have some issues with pixels showing in the Bloom but I'm not sure if increasing the 5x5 Gaussian blur will help that much, any idea's anyone? Now its time to change this dam logo, thanks by the way for all the comments that it looks like a Swastika !! I really had no idea.

After logo change I'm starting the demo/tech scene so my posts will slow down now, thank GOD I hear you say :-)

Team of one, signing off.

Hey there,

Just some suggestions from looking at some of your previous screenshots, you might want to try adjusting your bloom threshold level, so that only your real brights start blooming. The other thing you might want to try is downsampling your bloom buffer, then run your gaussian blur, then upsample. You'll get a lot more blur for cheaper.
