Speed up Your Blender Renderings with this "1 Sample Ambient Occlusion" Trick!

[@countruth]

Can you do a tutorial showing how to do one texture for all ambient occlusion

[@Blenderfanz]

before the end of the year I guess

[@simonw.1223]

at the end that is not ambient occlusion ambient occlusion is the probability how often light will hit a certain spot and makes it darker.

[@Blenderfanz]

The nodes called ambient occlusion

[@Blenderfanz]

Simon it is but I only used one sample to render it produces a some what smudged effect which I quite like. Looks as if done in paint.

[@simonw.1223]

@@Blenderfanz ohhh okay. Why not the toon shader if you want

[@simonw.1223]

@@Blenderfanz yeah and you just reversed the effect.

[@Blenderfanz]

toon shader haven't used that for ever

[@simonw.1223]

I think the tutorial took to much intro creating the tree

[@Blenderfanz]

Yes your probably right but people do like to make things. I suppose I could have done it with the suzan monkey head but Where's the fun in that. Simon can you recommend a good editor program?
