great shots there Pete, out of interest, was the snow your doing or did you use live weather function?

Hi Wayne

 

No it was just moi, playing with a slider. BTW if you set  ambient occlusion to ULTRA it will really improve the perception of depth 

to the snow cover (example in the last screenshot with the grasses).

 

Normally I either keep AO off or on low, because IMHO the implementation by Asobo is the worst I have seen in any modern gaming engine.

I really dislike the current technology that MS2020 is using (SSAO - screen space ambient occlusion).  I am really keeping my fingers crossed that

they will implement soft shadows  algorithms when they move up to DX12-1

 

This video does a good job of showing what advances in gaming engine technologies are capable of. You may have seen automobile ads made

with Unreal Engine and the CGI of a lot of Hollywood movies use their technology.

 

 At 3.05 in the following video there is a good discussion on soft shadow illumination

 

 

Cheers & thank you

You've just invented a "cottage industry" using MS2020. I love the idea :D
