Ambient Occlusion | Skyrim ENB Effect Demo #5
104This video demonstrates the screen-space ambient occlusion (SSAO) effect of ENB series for Skyrim. Ambient occlusion is an effect that calculates how exposed each point in a scene is to
ambient lighting; areas with less light exposure, like corners & crevices, are darkened accordingly.
ENB's implementation of SSAO is more sophisticated than most found in commercial games today; it respects lighting and transparency, and applies realistic darkening to affected areas rather than overlaying 'black blobs' as bound in some games.
(*cough* ... Far Cry 4 ... *cough*).
SSAO can be considered a 'sister effect' to screen-space indirect lighting (SSIL).
Recommended SSAO and SSIL effect settings -- and performance options -- for enbseries.ini:
