Tint Plus

Currenly I am doing the lighting stuff for my game. I want to change color balances depending to nearest lights. I am using tint plus effect but I have noticed that I can�t change the RGB at runtime. Any alternative?

Yes you can, use the 'Set red', 'set green' and 'set blue' actions in the Tint Plus tab of the object with the effect

why not use filters instead of a pixel shader? i doubt you need it

just do this, set filter> right click on the title bar of the select filter parameter> use expression> then write setRGB(x,y,z)

x y and z are variables for red green and blue respectively

I don�t know how can i miss the set RGB options.

Thanks QuaziGNRLnose. It is the first thing that I have done. But I didn' know about "use expression" option. Looks the best options, and no need PS 2.0.

Thanks again guys

I can tint the sprites with filter property, even convert to black. But is it posible to "burn" the color to white?

Nope, it is additive, but if you use white sprites...

I think the best way to get a white silhouette of the object is to set a black filter then use the Inverse shader.

I see that putting an extra sprite is quite complicated. Even doing that I should control balance between color filter and the intesity of the second one. Is it posible write a Brightness effect in PS 0.0? An intensity or brightness parameter for the color filter would be great

PS 0.0 can only be used for renderstates; parameterised effects will always require some form of processing, and thus cannot be achieved in the same way.

Can I set R, G or B indibidually in color filter?

Yeah, just use an expression with the set filter action.

So, If I want to changed the red value of the filter, what I need to put as expression? How can I let Green and Blue untouched? Something like this?

RGB(newRed, GetGreen(object.Filter), GetBlue(object.Filter))

Exactly that.

Thanks for the help !!! I have uploaded a tittle demo with the lighting system. Lights gradient are in one layer and affetcs only to ground texture. The main character and "future" objects are tinted with filter RGB manipulation depending lights color. The physiscs are also event based.
