Nice point lighting UI too! And - oh! - the HDRI color selector for the ambient light color!

Well, it's not point lighting -- it's a bit more.  |

Yes, the HDR pipeline conveniently eliminates the need to clutter the user interface with brightness multipliers for lights. |

I still haven't found the teaser
Are there any pictures of the Ambient Occlusion- I'm VERRY interested in this. It sounds awesome! |

Glad you found it! It's an actual part of the material I'm preparing for the Stage 2 rollout, and there will be more. Don't spoil please!

Ah... found it.
Wow: Ambient Occlusion will be a real game-changer for FF! Can you position a 3d light in the middle of a scene? (not just the sides?) |

I doubt it, it would break the seamless tiling.

Would it? If Sealess was on, it could wrap around. More of a barrier is probably just how the HDR skymap works: can't exist in the 3d space... (which is the most likely answer anyhow.) |

Ugh, I looked so long on the FF site thinking it was hidden here...
 finally found it, thanks for that latest hint vlad
Looks totally awesome, I'll admit I'm finally understanding just some of the value of HDR, before it seemed a bit out of the blue. I'm really excited for AO, it already looks way better than all the "faked" tricks I use. |

So did I until I realized Vlad is more clever than that
And I agree with KG, looks really cool, and the combination of all those lovely new toys looks really powerful

It's also worth noting that apparently we'll get excellent interactivity with ambient occlusion, quite contrary to what one would expect. I'm looking forward to it!
Now, what was the revealed launch date for stage 2 again? --- Crapadilla says: "Damn you, stupid redundant feature requests!" ;) |
