Texture gamma

Tofusan

Is there a way to change the gamma value of texture by script?

// Get the image managervar oImageMgr = App.getImageMgr();// Define the desired gammavar nGamma = 2.2;// Get or create a DzTexture for the image; set gamma if createdvar oTexture = oImageMgr.getImage( "Absolute/path/to/image.ext", nGamma );// If we have a texture and its gamma is not the gamma we wantif( oTexture && oTexture.getGamma() != nGamma ){ // Set its gamma to the desired value oTexture.setGamma( nGamma );}

// If we have a texture and its gamma is not the gamma we want
if( oTexture && oTexture.getGamma() != nGamma ){
 // Set its gamma to the desired value
 oTexture.setGamma( nGamma );
}

Thank you very much. :D

Is there a way to check a particular node for diffuse textures that aren't at 2.2?  This is probably a basic question but I'll ask since I'm new to Daz Scripting.

Once you have the map oTexture.getGamma() will get the gamma. For getting the maps, see http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/57229/

But how do you know which channel to set the gamma value? If you want only the Base Color? Or if you want only the Translucency Color?

 

Thnx Rob

You'd get the image from the property, then use Rob's code to get its gamma.
