We attempted to take a holistic approach to rendering on Advanced Warfare, emphasizing balance through consistency, and real-world measurements ended up being an integral part of our understanding of materials and lighting. We recorded many measurements and while a lot of these were used directly in the game, much of the benefit of these processes lay in gaining an intuition for appropriate values for diffuse albedo, gloss and luminance. In this talk we’ll discuss the workflows we used related to:
- Diffuse Albedo Texture Capture
- Gloss Value Measurement
- Lighting Measurement
- HDR Photography for Validation of Luminance and Look
- Material Whiteboxes
- Skybox Capture
