= Color grade texture creation =

=== Overview ===

Color grading is a way to map the color of a pixel to another color. This can be used to change the brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, … of a whole image.<br />It is possible to smoothly fade between two different grading templates.<br />It uses a small 3D texture with a color as input and another color as output.

=== Requirements ===

* Photoshop or any other image editing software

=== Setup ===

# Take a screenshot of the game with color grading disabled
# Open the screenshot in Photoshop
# Drag and drop the default grading texture on the canvas (''\textures\gradingmaps\colorgrading_base.png'')
# Place the color strip anywhere in the image
# Flatten the image to merge all the layers
# Select “Image > Mode > 16 Bits/Channel” in the top menu

=== Adjustments ===

* Use any of the options in “Image > Adjustments”
* These can be used to change the brightness, saturation, contrast and so on
* Any changes you see on the image in Photoshop will carry over to the game

=== Layers ===

* It is also possible to use the any of the layer blend modes
* There are two kinds of layers allowed:

# Solid color
# Dupilcate of the first layer

* It is possible to duplicate the first layer and make adjustments to it and then blend it
* The use of Layer Masks is allowed as long as they are generated from the image and not hand painted

=== Saving ===

# Crop the color strip from the canvas, make sure the resulting image is 256×16 px
# Select “Save As…” and set the format as “PNG" and save it in the folder “''\textures\gradingmaps''”
