PNG on HuD is way too bright

[piotr47]

Hello all,

I try to display a PNG on the HuD, but the bright level in game is way too high. The PNG is 8bit and declared as no sRGB on the options.




I do'nt understand why, it appears like this.

Please help!

Thx

Did you try keeping sRGB checked on? I know the engine used to have issues importing PNGs. I always import Targas to avoid these kinds of issues, even for HUD elements.

Yes I tried different things, checking sRGB too.

I'm quite sure it's a problem of PNG file, not configuring it.

I made the renders with Iray within Substance Painter.

I'll keep in touch if I find an answer...

Old post, but maybe someone might look this up again, since I also just had the question: My .png (exported from Blender) was too bright as UI element.
Setting the RGB Curve to 2,0 gave me the desired result.
