Lens Flare

Lens Flares simulate the effect of lights refracting inside a camera lens. You can use them to represent bright lights or, more subtly, to add a bit more atmosphere to your Scene.

The easiest way to set up a lens flare is to assign a Flare Asset to the Flare property of a Light. If you do this, Unity automatically tracks the position and direction of the Light. To get more precise control, use this component.

To manually create a lens llare:

1. Create a new GameObject (menu bar: GameObject > Create Empty).
2. In the Inspector, click Add Component > Effects > Lens Flare.
3. Assign a Flare Asset to the Flare property.

If you want a Camera to see lens flares, attach a Flare Layer component to the Camera’s GameObject.

To see the lens flare effect in the Scene View, enable the Effect toggle in the Scene View toolbar and, in the drop-down, enable Flares.

• If you use a very bright lens flare, make sure its direction fits with your Scene’s primary light source.
• To design your own Flares, create a Flare Asset. To do this, click Assets > Create > Lens Flare.
• Colliders block lens flares. A Collider between the Flare GameObject and the Camera hides the lens flare, even if the Collider does not have a Mesh Renderer. If the Collider is marked as Trigger, it only blocks the lens flare if Physics.queriesHitTriggers is true.
