Hello, I’m working on a scene using react three fiber and no matter what I try I can’t get the colors similar to the ones I can get in Blender - they just look too vibrant. I’ve tried setting and unsetting the tonemapping in both R3F and Blender and nothing is working. Here’s what I’m trying to ac…

Hi, if the scene is static, the best way to match Blender is to bake your textures in Blender and load them into threejs. Otherwise you can only get close to what you see in Blender by playing with: Lighting ToneMapping colorSpace postprocessing

Note that Blender defaults to AgX tone mapping, and R3F defaults to ACES Filmic but can be configured to AgX. I suspect that’s one part of it, and most of the remainder is lighting.

How would I go about changing it to AgX out of curiosity?

In three.js: renderer.toneMapping = THREE.AgXToneMapping; In R3F I think it’s something like <Canvas gl={{ toneMapping: THREE.AgXToneMapping }}> ... but see discussion in Confusing tone mapping configuration · Issue #1547 · pmndrs/react-three-fiber · GitHub if that doesn’t work.

If any of these materials are metallic you may need more environment lighting than the 0.2 intensity you’ve enabled, or (perhaps preferably) to disable the material’s metalness. But an exact match from two different engines is not guaranteed, there is no shortcut I’m aware of except to configure lig…
