Separate glare yebis parameters for sun and for artificial lights

not sure if its feasible but would be nice to have separate control of the glare coming from the sun and from artificial sources like brake lights, shift LEDs etc.

it seems impossible to get a realisitic looking sun glare off of bodywork without having crazy looking brake lights etc

i.e.:

This looks good/believable (can be tweaked to be even more like the glare seen by the eye of course)



this looks silly (i.e. not what you see with your eyes, but like some camera with tiny aperture or some filter over it to create star shapes.)



steering wheel shift LEDs:

 

I do agree that it would be nice to have more control and ability to fine-tune this but... the glare from the body work also looks like that because it's emulating what you'd see through a camera lens. Blinding glare from reflections doesn't quite look like that to the human eye.

 

sure maybe not like that exact image, but you can create a convincing enough effect with the available yebis settings, its just that brake lights etc will look ridiculous as a result

 

Only in terms of the star effect. Take that away, and the bodywork has blinding sun reflection glare as in real life. Like ears1991 said, I have achieved quite a good body work glare by really cranking up the glare luminance, turning the star effect off and some other minor tweaks, but then it makes the car lights look overdone.

 

I thought we were talking about Yebis? In Yebis the glare is that star effect, yes.

 

You can turn the star effect off in Yebis. See this post: https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/i...lare-off-bodywork-possible.35179/#post-727354

I got bright bloom with no stars by setting SHAPE_STAR_LUMINANCE=0.

 

Yes, I know. Thanks. I do that since a while with my post-processing presets because I think the default glare doesn't look great.

 

You cannot separate the two (it's just not how the engine works)...
