BloomEffect

Supported Class World & Effects

Simulates the camera viewing a very bright light.

Description

The BloomEffect simulates the camera viewing a very bright light. It causes brighter colors to glow, similar to applying the neon Material to everything, including the Sky. Multiple BloomEffect objects can be applied at once and they will compose their effects together.

Like other post-processing effects, BloomEffect will only work while Enabled and when parented to Lighting or Workspace.CurrentCamera. Also, it may render differently depending on your Studio settings (see the Quality Level settings in Rendering → Performance).

For more details on this effect and others, see Post-Processing Effects.

Properties

Intensity Supported Property Determines the additive blending intensity.
Intensity: float

Determines the additive blending intensity.

Intensity determines how intensely the colors that bloom (determined by the Threshold) will additively blend with themselves. Higher values will produce brighter colors.

Roblox documentation

Size Supported Property Determines the radius of the bloom in pixels.
Size: float

Determines the radius of the bloom in pixels.

Size determines the radius of the bloom effect in pixels in a similar manner to BlurEffect.Size. Larger values create a wider bloom effect, and a value of 0 will disable the bleed (but not the color adjustment).

Roblox documentation

Threshold Supported Property Determines how bright a color must be before it blooms.
Threshold: float

Determines how bright a color must be before it blooms.

Threshold determines how bright a color can be before it blooms. If set to 1, only pure white colors will bloom. If set to 0, all colors will bloom.
