Re: Cavity

["Adrian Lopez" <liquidlightdigital(at)gmail.com>]

As far as I know, Zbrush's cavity maps are grayscale images to be piped to a mixer to be mixed with a color or texture node, then into the color input on a material.  Not to be used with AO.  AO uses geometry and lights to determine a solution.  Zbrush has already done that - in a different sort of way.

My two cents - maybe less..

Greetings,
Has anyone used the XSI Ambient Occlusion shader with Cavity maps from
Z-brush? I made some but am getting poor results.
