Hey
@Peter Boese, i'm painfully going thru some ppfilter script writing and i need some help to get a simple algorithm going.
I'm just trying to get some of the light config to raise and/or lower depending on the hour, before i get my head around each cloud selection script.
ie "ambient light" would go from 1.2 in the early morning to 2.5 at noon, going back to 1.4 in the evening. By the hour, not even considering exposure nor cloud condition.
It's basically that i need "Ambient.light" to be super high during noon, along with reflections, but it doesn't look as good at dusk/dawn. The idea is to manage the noon light better with my color grading and the usual vintage tracks i'm running on, especially since those usually have a pretty awful color grading for the roads and trees. Getting the ambient light higher in those conditions hide the uglyness a lot.
Also, i'm running a external ambient occlusion (SSDO) for the grass on those tracks, allowing the scenery to be far more natural and realistic, so the extra ambient light doesn't paint everything yellow. It's a complicated solution that fits my OCD well.
I'm pretty sure i had Pure manual somewhere in the early versions of Pure with some basic script settings, but i'm getting lost and i come up with ugly and super complicated solutions, when i'm not just completely stealing other ppfilters scripts' elements trying to get a formula that might do the job. They're usually way over the top considering the basic scripting i need.
Hope you can help and thanks in advance, along with the common thanks for bringing AC back into my life with your insane software!
