Class PosterizationFilter

java.lang.Object

com.jme3.post.filters.PosterizationFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Savable

public class PosterizationFilter
extends Filter

A Post Processing filter to change colors appear with sharp edges as if the available amount of colors available was not enough to draw the true image. Possibly useful in cartoon styled games. Use the strength variable to lessen influence of this filter on the total result. Values from 0.2 to 0.7 appear to give nice results.
