[News Blog - Feb 18] Unity 5's Ambient Occlusion

[Jᴧgᴧ]

MadMole's showing off the new Ambient Occlusion they added via Unity 5's engine, on the Tumblr blog[joelhuenink.tumblr.com], complete with a really nice screenshot[joelhuenink.tumblr.com].

Here is a wasteland building, I got most of the textures on it upgraded to work with unity 5 today. We have ambient occlusion now on every texture...

Absolutely awesome! I am dying to play the next update lol.

Unity 5 has promise. I ponder how much I will ease the restrictions on my game settings come March.

Thanks for the update!
I hope I'll be able to run the game with U5 as well as now.

Forgive me for saying this, but what's the difference? Does this new engine give better fps for the same systems? AFAIK, this game already runs pretty damned well, except for when you go to that huge city.

[[IPD]Argh...]

Thats a new one having the world reflect in your guns barrel :D Stainless polished steel?? or finally a tungsten use :P

Yes, Unity 5 will give an increase in performance (a rather large one). For a lot of people (I think the majority) the game has FPS problems, especially in some areas like the city. That should change.

I was scanning through Joels blog pics yesterday and saw a torch fixed to the barrel of a shotgun, love that idea, so much better than the silly blunderbuss thats coming

Blasphemy!

....not that I don't like the being able to attach stuff to weapons feature, too. I don't see a torch tho. Unless you meant a flashlight.
