Hi everyone, I'm trying to port an avatar editor made with AS3. The original app makes use of the gskinner Color Matrix class for adjusting brightness, contrast, saturation and hue of each part and stores those values in a DB. So imo I have two options here: 1. Port the class to js and try to use the stored values as they are. 2. Find an algorithm to transform those values to use them with PixiJS Color Matrix Filter directly. As I'm not very good at maths I've tried the 1st option so I ported the class to JS and tried to use it as the matrix for the color matrix filter. Saturation and hue seem ok but I cannot make brightness and contrast adjustments to look similar in as3 and pixi. I've been digging a bit and I've found that in the gskinner class, brightness and contrast are tweaked through the offset column while the color matrix filter in Pixi aren't. I've noticed as well the use of 'colorMatrix.frag' which is a WebGL shader impl but I don't know anything about them so I'm stuck. Do I need to implement a new custom matrix color filter or even a custom colorMatrix.frag (although I don't know anything about shaders as I said)? Any clues on option 2? Is there any other option I haven't take into account may be? Any help or directions would be very much appreciated. Thanks so much! You can see the ported matrix color code here (and I've attached the as3 code just in case): https://www.pixiplayground.com/#/edit/DIPYaphRukZ6rBqIRupVv as3-color-matrix-example.zip
