Black Environment

[Qulex3]

When I change the scene multiple times, the environment is black at the beginning of the scene.

hmm, I think it's related to post effects 

[Qulex3]

yeah, the reason for this is the AutoExposure effect

I need your project in order to test this.

Actually, this is kind of normal for the auto-exposure effect. It blends with the previous frame color, but if it's the first frame rendered, all it has is a black color to start with. It might be better if I detect the first frame and just use the current color, but there will still be some color adjustment at the beginning as the frames average out.

source file?

 

[Josh]

No, I don't need the project actually.

I went back to view your video again, but it is no longer available. I recommend using YouTube or another service for posting videos.

I added a FirstRender uniform int that gets set to 1 the first time a post-processing effect is added to a camera, or if the camera has been hidden or had its projection mode changed. Also modified the exposure control shader so if FirstRender is 1 it doesn't blend with the previous value. I believe this will provide the result you are expecting.

Will be included in the next build.

Yeah, I think this will work the way you are expecting in the next build.
