Dear Octane programmers,

I noticed that the dirt texture is useful to give more contrast to the scene, pmc and pt wash too much the render.

Unfortunately we have to add this texture to every material.

I think that adding a global AO (dirt filter) to the entire scene could give more personality to the image.

Thank you

Super suggestion (like the AO in Vray)

This would be a very useful feature!
Great idea.

- actually - this could be a good option, this is present in most of rendering engines - sometimes AO looks better than pt or pmc - because of the added definition - maybe unrealistic - but it works - it's a logical progression

Don't forget dirt texture SIGNIFICANTLY reduces render speed.
So, dirt usage everywhere is not good idea.

You makes materials too light.
