Second correction, which I have made several times already and it's getting mighty tedious.
(Thanks for trying, Khai)
IBL + IDL WORKS GREAT
IBL + AO DOES NOT WORK GREAT - BUT NOBODY SAID TO USE IBL + AO HERE
I HAVE DEMONSTRATED IN ANOTHER THREAD THAT WITH A CORRECTLY MADE IBL IMAGE, RESULTS ARE IDENTICAL TO ENVSPHERE AS FAR AS THE AMBIENT LIGHT IS CONCERNED.
THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT THE ENVSPHERE ALSO PROVIDES SOMETHING TO SEE, DIRECTLY AND ALSO IN REFLECTIONS, WHEREAS THE IBL DOES NOT - IBL IS INVISIBLE AND JUST SUPPLIES AMBIENT LIGHT.
I AM SHOUTING ON PURPOSE - READ THIS THREE TIMES OR UNTIL YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I SAID, WHICHEVER TAKES LONGER. IF YOU THINK YOU GOT IT IN TWO READS, SORRY READ IT AGAIN
THANK YOU
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)
