Choosing out of gamut colors in 32 bit float for HDR - mholder - 11-14-2018
I am trying to make an hdr texture for lighting. Technically, I can make this in Gimp, but for my sun I need an extremely high luminance value.
In the color picker, the largest value I can input is 500 in HSV, which translates (I guess) to 300 Luminance in LCH.
That's a problem because the shadows are too soft. I need to go much higher than that. Is there any way to do this? The only workaround solution is to add lots and lots of exposure to get a pixel value above 500.
