# Melon Cinematic Tonemapper
An efficient Tonemapper to fix ACES Issues - For Unity & Prowl Game Engines
# Motivations
ACES is broken - High intensity colors shift hues
- Intense blue shifts to purple, making highlights dull and dissappear completely in some cases,
- Intense Reds shift to Yellow, providing a warmer feeling, but making things appear as they have some black body radiation.
Melon tonemapping fixes that by shifting the color to white at high intensities,
with a slight "controlable" hue shift for a more pleasing look:
Green and red slightly shift to yellow and blue shifts to cyan before going to white.
Contrast is ajusted to approximate ACES levels
# Supported Platforms
### Unity Engine
- Currently only supports High Definition Render Pipeline 14.0.3 and above, using a fullscreen shader graph
- Will add support for Universal Render Pipeline and Post Processing Stack Package.
### Prowl Engine
- Implemented natively
- See : https://github.com/michaelsakharov/Prowl
# Screenshots
# Why "Melon" you might ask !?
- My last name is Reinhard but Reinhard tonemapping already exists, so I just picked an old pseudonym I go by ;)
