16bits channel image buffers

[jordiperez]

In the cases where using OpenEXR textures, also using layered textures blending with <modulate_x4> with realtime generated textures, colour information can be lost in the passes resulting solid colours.

Would be great to have premade frameworks working with 16bits per channel images/textures/buffers, and outputing the normal RGB final image to the screen.

Try DDS with RGBA16F format. That ought to solve it.
I agree Ogre lacks some extra functionality regarding 16-bit per channel images.
