Quote - Of course, I have to observe that the light-based AO is working perfectly here in Poser Pro, so I'm not sure why we should bother with material AO at all anymore. It does the right thing.

we still need to use  material AO sometimes.

i use it for example when its a cloudy day. the light bounces from the ground on the body a little. so teh AO on the body should be lighter then the AO on the ground. at least in the light situation that i do. not always.
