Banding in dim Lighting
I have posted also on the Unity forums but thought I'd ask here too. I am getting some strong color banding in my dimly lit scene, from the lighting/shading using the default Diffuse with a texture...
Yes I started taking a look on the web to see if anyone had done any nice dithering shaders that I could steal. Then I got distracted by other things and just noticed that you guys had replied.
I was also looking for a classic CG quote I seem to remember from some Pixar guy, I think it was. Something about that noise is the most aesthetically attractive cheat/solution to [these kind of problems?]. But I can't find it now.
Gerald, you are saying that you have some kind of workaround? Any tips you could share? :)
bgolus, oh yes of course you are right, about the distortion and not really wanting it to also distort the dithering/grain noise.
(cool to think that I stumbled upon something that maybe Carmack is considering now :) )
Cheers
