Lens Flare (SRP) component reference

Refer to Add lens flares for information on how to use the Lens Flare (SRP) component.

General

Property	Description
Lens Flare Data	Select the Lens Flare (SRP) Data asset this component controls.
Intensity	Multiplies the intensity of the lens flare.
Scale	Multiplies the scale of the lens flare.
Light Override	Specifies the light component Unity gets the color and shape values from, if you enable Modulate By Light Color or Attenuation By Light Shape. If you don't specify a light component, Unity uses the Light component from this GameObject.
Attenuation by Light Shape	Enable this property to automatically change the appearance of the lens flare based on the type of light you attached this component to. For example, if this component is attached to a spot light and the camera is looking at this light from behind, the lens flare is not visible. This property is only available when this component is attached to a light.
Attenuation Distance	The distance between the start and the end of the Attenuation Distance Curve. This value operates between 0 and 1 in world space.
Attenuation Distance Curve	Fades out the appearance of the lens flare over the distance between the GameObject this asset is attached to, and the Camera.
Scale Distance	The distance between the start and the end of the Scale Distance Curve. This value operates between 0 and 1 in world space.
Scale Distance Curve	Changes the size of the lens flare over the distance between the GameObject this asset is attached to, and the Camera.
Screen Attenuation Curve	Reduces the effect of the lens flare based on its distance from the edge of the screen. You can use this to display a lens flare at the edge of your screen

Occlusion

Property	Description
Enable	Enable this property to partially obscure the lens flare based on the depth buffer
Background Clouds	When enabled, the occlusion is attenuated by background clouds and volumetric clouds.
Occlusion Radius	Defines how far from the light source Unity occludes the lens flare. This value is in world space.
Sample Count	The number of random samples the CPU uses to generate the Occlusion Radius.
Occlusion Offset	Offsets the plane that the occlusion operates on. A higher value moves this plane closer to Camera. This value is in world space. For example, if a lens flare is inside the light bulb, you can use this to sample occlusion outside the light bulb.
Occlusion Remap Curve	Specifies the curve used to remap the occlusion of the flare. By default, the occlusion is linear, between 0 and 1. This can be useful to occlude flare more drastically when behind clouds.
Allow Off Screen	Enable this property to allow lens flares outside the Camera's view to affect the current field of view.
