 We recommend that you use the highest bit depth possible in whatever source images are to processed by Lys. If your current pipeline is restricted to 8bit, you can export the final map as 8bit from within Lys once the processing has been completed. You will always get more accurate results by authoring source images in higher bit depths and only converting to your target format (eg: 8bit) during Lys’s export. We recommend that you use the highest bit depth possible in whatever source images are to processed by Lys.
