Parameters

intermediate concepts

Complete reference for all Beautify 3 parameters in the Built-in Render Pipeline. Parameters are organized by category as they appear in the Inspector.

Blur	Bloom blur spread	3
Depth Attenuation	Reduces bloom on distant objects	0

Anamorphic Flares

Parameter	Description	Default
Anamorphic Flares	Enable horizontal or vertical light streaks	Off
Intensity	Flare brightness	1.0
Threshold	Minimum brightness for flare contribution	0.75
Spread	Length of the flare streaks	1.0
Vertical	Produces vertical flares instead of horizontal	Off
Tint	Color tint applied to flares	White

Sun Flares

Parameter	Description	Default
Sun Flares	Enable sun flare effect from a directional light	Off
Intensity	Overall brightness of the sun flare	1.0
Sun Disk Size	Size of the central sun disk	0.05
Diffraction	Enable diffraction rays around the sun	On
Ghosts	Number and intensity of lens ghost artifacts	4

Lens Effects

Parameter	Description	Default
Lens Dirt	Enable lens dirt overlay on bloom/flares	Off
Dirt Texture	Texture used for the dirt overlay	None
Dirt Intensity	Visibility of the dirt effect	1.0
Chromatic Aberration	Color fringing at screen edges simulating lens imperfection	0

Depth of Field

Parameter	Description	Default
Depth of Field	Enable depth of field blur	Off
Auto Focus	Automatically focuses on the object at screen center	On
Focus Speed	Transition speed when focus distance changes	1.0
Distance	Manual focus distance (when Auto Focus is off)	10
Target Focus	Transform to focus on (overrides Auto Focus)	None
Focal Length	Simulated camera focal length (affects blur range)	0.05
Aperture	Simulated aperture size (lower = wider focus area)	2.8
Foreground Blur	Enable blur of objects closer than focus distance	On
Bokeh	Enable bokeh disc shapes in out-of-focus highlights	Off
Bokeh Composition	Bokeh shape and threshold settings	—
Downsampling	DoF resolution reduction for better performance	1
Sample Count	Blur quality (higher = smoother but more expensive)	Medium
Transparency Support	Handle transparent objects in DoF (requires extra pass)	Off
Exclusion Layer	Layer mask for objects that should always stay in focus	None

Eye Adaptation

Parameter	Description	Default
Eye Adaptation	Enable dynamic exposure adjustment based on average scene brightness	Off
Min/Max Exposure	Range limits for the automatic exposure	0.2 / 5.0
Speed to Dark/Light	Transition speed when moving to darker/brighter areas	1.0 / 1.0

Purkinje Effect

Parameter	Description	Default
Purkinje	Simulates the shift in human color perception under low light (blue shift)	Off
Intensity	Strength of the Purkinje color shift	1.0
Luminance Threshold	Brightness level below which the effect activates	0.15

Artistic Effects

Parameter	Description	Default
Vignetting	Darkens screen edges for a cinematic look	0
Vignetting Color	Color of the vignette overlay	Black

Frame	Decorative frame overlay around the screen	Off
Outline	Edge detection outline effect	Off
Night Vision	Green-tinted night vision camera effect	Off
Thermal Vision	Infrared/thermal camera simulation	Off

Using Profiles

Profiles let you save and switch between different Beautify configurations at runtime. This is useful for:

Different quality tiers (Low, Medium, High)
Area-specific effects (indoor vs. outdoor)
Cinematic transitions

To create a profile:

Configure Beautify with the desired settings.
Click Create Profile in the inspector.
Save the ScriptableObject asset.
Assign it via script at runtime using Beautify.instance.profile = myProfile;

See Scripting Support for code examples.
