It may be necessary to render several textures, and to pick parts of all. A retractable landing gear might be good in extended position, but its door should probably be in closed position. One has to consider in which position moving objects should be during rendering. You can't even see the gear struts here, while in the 'Ambient Occlusion' enhanced lower part you actually see details.Īn ambient occlusion texture is a (static) snapshot of an object. You may recognize the upper part as the traditional FlightGear look.

This time it will take much longer, but the quality of the generated texture will be very high. Increase the 'Samples' value and 'Use Falloff'. Switch again to 'Shading' (F5) and 'World Buttons', and select the 'Amb Occ' tab. After these quick but low-quality passes turn up the quality level for the final texture. Tweak the model and render an AO texture as often as necessary until you are happy. Doing the opposite works well, too: deselect all objects and select one fuselage object, followed by 'Select -> Linked -> Material', then one wing object and again 'Select -> Linked -> Material', etc.

We will also deselect all objects that shouldn't really take part in the AO rendering, such as propeller disks or glass. Remember: we are only going to export the finished texture, but we won't export the model, so we can manipulate the model as much as we want. We can just select all of their faces and remove them (x-key -> 'Faces'). One of the causes of rendering artifacts are the couzinet70's wheel wells - the inner part of the gear housing. Others we have to fix by retouching the final texture.
