ColorCorrectionEffect

Inherits from: PostEffect → Instance → Object

ColorCorrectionEffect can be used to adjust several color-related properties at once, including Saturation, TintColor, Brightness and Contrast. It's useful for fine-tuning the visual aesthetic of a world or communicating status effects to the player. Multiple ColorCorrectionEffect objects can be applied at the same time and they will compose their effects together.

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

Inherited from Instance

NameType / ReturnsDescription
Instance.ArchivablebooleanDetermines if an Instance and its descendants can be cloned using Instance:Clone(), and can be saved/published.
Instance.archivableboolean
Instance.CapabilitiesSecurityCapabilitiesThe set of capabilities allowed to be used for scripts inside this container.
Instance.IsInSandboxbooleanIndicates whether the instance is inside a sandboxed container.
Instance.NamestringA non-unique identifier of the Instance.
Instance.ParentInstanceDetermines the hierarchical parent of the Instance.

Object.classNamestring

ColorCorrectionEffect.Brightness

This property determines by how much the colors of pixels will be shifted. A value of -1 will cause all pixels to be completely black while a value of 1 will cause them to be white.

ColorCorrectionEffect.Contrast

This property determines the separation between the dark and light colors. Values less than 0 have reduced contrast while values greater than 0 have increased contrast.

ColorCorrectionEffect.Saturation

This property determines the change in intensity of pixel colors. Values above 1 will cause colors to be more vivid while values below 0 will make colors more dull, eventually reaching full desaturation at -1.

ColorCorrectionEffect.TintColor

This property determines by what factors the RGB channels of pixel colors are scaled. The effect is multiplicative, so changing this to [255, 0, 0] (red) would cause the green and blue channels to be multiplied by 0.
