Hey all, hoping somebody can help point me in the right direction here… I have a 2d scene and I am trying to apply some bloom post process effect to it. I have found a link on the forums that shows a chinese project where they have added PP effects and walk through how they did it… I have even downloaded the project to look at it myself… thing is, when I try to follow there instructions, I get nowhere… I feel I must be doing something wrong… but there is no documentation on how to go about this process from what I can tell… there is no video showing how to set up the post processing effects other than the chinese video that I found… I don’t understand the language, but I have followed their steps and looked at their project and I don’t get anywhere near the same results… Here is what I’m doing…
I am working in Cocos Creator 3.8.1
When following the instructions in the chinese tutorial, I do the following: FYI, the tutorial I’m referencing can be found here… Global glow after-effects in Cocos Creator 3.8
My steps…
- Add the word “Custom” to the “Custom Pipeline Name” property in the project settings.
- Check the box to enable custom render pipeline in the feature cropping portion of project settings.
- checked the “use post process” box on the scene camera.
- Added a node named “post_process” to my project’s scene hierarchy
- Added the post process components into the post_process node.
This is pretty much where the instructions on the tutorial end… I haven’t been able to identify anything super obvious that might show me what I’m missing when looking in the demo scene that they provided… In their demo scene, I can adjust the bloom intensity and I see the changes in the editor… but when I follow the steps above and play test my 2d unlit project, I don’t see anything different at all… Post processing is a vital aspect of game development in an engine and my studio has been working around it instead of with it for about a year now… Can someone please provide me with some insight on how to get this working properly?? I feel like it should not be this difficult…
