[Bf-committers] Semi Off-topic: Optimised/Adaptive AO

[Matt Ebb]

Hi,

Just a heads-up to those who might be interested, I've recently read  
a couple of very interesting articles on XSIblog about optimising AO  
sampling based on a 2-pass approach to figure out where the samples  
are needed. They're setting it all up in Mental Ray shading nodes,  
and although we don't have that flexibility, we do have the source :)  
Perhaps this is nothing new, but could be an interesting read for  
people here, so check them out if you like!
