Threlte Postprocessing

Threlte Postprocessing is a postprocessing effects library for Threlte, bringing powerful post-processing capabilities to your Svelte 3D applications. Built on top of three.js and postprocessing, it provides a set of ready-to-use effects that can be easily integrated into your Threlte scenes.

npm install threlte-postprocessing

Effects Documentation 📚

Bloom

Adds a glow effect to bright areas of the scene.

  height={480}             // Render height (default: 480)
/>

BrightnessContrast

Adjusts the brightness and contrast of the scene.

<BrightnessContrastEffect
  brightness={0}           // Brightness adjustment (-1 to 1, default: 0)
  contrast={0}            // Contrast adjustment (-1 to 1, default: 0)
/>

ChromaticAberration

Simulates lens color separation artifacts.

<ChromaticAberrationEffect
  offset={[0.002, 0.002]}  // RGB offset vector (default: [0.002, 0.002])
  radialModulation={false} // Enable radial offset modulation (default: false)
  modulationOffset={0.15}  // Modulation offset (default: 0.15)
/>

ColorAverage

Reduces the image to a single average color.

<ColorAverageEffect />

ColorDepth

Reduces the color depth of the image.

<ColorDepthEffect

/>

ColorGrading

Applies color adjustments to the final render.

<ColorGradingEffect
  lut={texture}            // Color lookup texture
  lutSize={32}            // Size of the lookup texture (default: 32)
  intensity={1.0}         // Effect intensity (default: 1.0)
/>

Depth

Renders the scene's depth buffer.

<DepthEffect
  inverted={false}        // Invert the depth values (default: false)
  near={0}               // Near plane distance (default: 0)
  far={1}               // Far plane distance (default: 1)
/>

DepthOfField

Simulates camera focus effects by blurring objects based on their distance from the focal point.

<DepthOfFieldEffect
  focusDistance={0.0}      // Distance to the focus point (default: 0.0)
  focalLength={0.02}       // Focal length of the simulated camera (default: 0.02)
  bokehScale={2.0}         // Size of the bokeh effect (default: 2.0)
  height={480}             // Render height (default: 480)
/>

DotScreen

Creates a dot-screen effect similar to halftone printing.

<DotScreenEffect
  angle={1.57}            // Pattern angle in radians (default: 1.57)
  scale={1.0}             // Pattern scale (default: 1.0)
/>

Glitch

Creates digital glitch effects.

<GlitchEffect
  delay={[1.5, 3.5]}      // Min/max delay between glitches (default: [1.5, 3.5])
  duration={[0.6, 1.0]}   // Min/max glitch duration (default: [0.6, 1.0])
  strength={[0.3, 1.0]}   // Min/max glitch strength (default: [0.3, 1.0])
  mode={GlitchMode.CONSTANT} // Glitch mode (CONSTANT, SPORADIC)
/>

GodRays

Creates volumetric lighting effects.

<GodRaysEffect
  decay={0.95}            // Light decay factor (default: 0.95)

Vignette

Darkens the edges of the scene.

  darkness={0.5}           // Intensity of the darkening (default: 0.5)
  eskil={false}            // Use Eskil's vignette technique (default: false)
/>

Custom Fluid Effect

Fluid like in react-fluid

<script lang="ts">
    import { FluidEffect } from "threlte-postprocessing/custom";
</script>

<!-- Don't forget to wrap it with <EffectComposer>! -->
<FluidEffect />
