hello everyone Please tell me , how do I make it so that would result in rendering VFB displayed with gamma 2.2 ( by default ) but write OpenEXR file for compositing with gamma 1. In Vray I used in the settings of color mapping ( do not use … ) and display mode sRGB, to display the result with a gamma of 2.2 So I get the original file with gamma 1 and opening it in AE or Nuke, it displays correctly , and in the case of the Corona he writes a file with gamma 2.2 and it turns into double conversion compositing . How to make a save with gamma 1 and the map in the VFB, mode sRGB mode ? ---

> [@Polymax](#): > > may be save openexr with overrided gamma? (in save dialog) The concept is simple! Somehow I slipped my mind that there is a mode while maintaining override, thanks man, sent to the right path))) ---

Sorry to be an irrelevant stick in the mud, but Gamma 2.2 != SRGB, they just happen to look somewhat similar (except for the darks). ---
