Hi,

is it somehow possible to get an ‘averaged AO’ float value as prim attr, without going the ‘shader route’ (e.g. baking a map and grabbing the color values)?

e.g. sending rays from each point, then combining the values.

any input welcome!

Here's a way to do it on points, would just then attribpromote it to prims (or try modifying the code to run on prims, shouldn't be too hard)
