Ambient Occlusion (AO)
#44


I think there is no error in our AO files except of that they are too dark<a contenteditable="false" data-ipshover="" data-ipshover-target="<___base_url___>/index.php?/profile/10211-jesta/&do=hovercard" data-mentionid="10211" href="<___base_url___>/index.php?/profile/10211-jesta/">@jesta</a>. AO affects snow in Banished because Luke added the AO value to his snow rendering functions to have an elegant solution to remove snow from parts of his buildings. It's intended and creates nice effects at some roofs or under overhangs. It's also logical in a way to have less snow on parts which are surrounded by walls and so on.




So if we have too less snow on our models then because of too much AO. We can brighten it until the roofs are close to full white and it will have full snow. Or if we have a model which should have full snow without any effect by AO then we can use another material where we remove the multiplication by the AO value from this function in line 229... But I think we should not use it as workaround for too dark AO's... That's right. I use this material in the nordic mod where I want more snow here and there but I also rework the AO files from Blender.
