I recently solved this by computing AO in ice and using that vertex map in the rendertree which put the AO directly in the color map and was also a lot faster. It's resolution dependant of course, but a bit of simple laplacian smoothing goes a long way. On Oct 12, 2012 5:43 PM, "Chris Marshall" <[email protected]> wrote:
