I don't have time to explain, but I've explained before that VSS shaders were faking some of what you get for free with IDL. Just as VSS provided GC, and if you double up on render GC with shader GC its a mess, so if you don't adjust the shader with IDL, it glows too much and you lose contrast.
With IDL I reduce the SSS to .3 or even 0, and reduce the GC, I think I've been suggesting 1.3 but I can't remember. Depends on your HSV ETM settings.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
