Ambient Occlusion

[JeffryMoser]

Hello, I did search for the answer first. Where is Ambient Occlusion option on Blender 4.2? It seems to be removed. When I use the help manual, I just get definitions instead of how to find the option.

I think that the Evee renderer that used it has been redesigned, and it does not use it anymore. This is why there is no option for it.

There is a related explanation in this post:

Can't find normals auto smuth in blender 4.2.0

Hello. What should I do? It is so intimidating when there is such a big difference between different versions of the program, at least if you are taking the course for the first time, as I am now. Does it make sense to download Blender 3.2? Can someone give me the correct link? FYI: Complete Blender Creator 3: Learn 3D Modeling for Beginners - the curse that I’m trying to learn at the moment.

I found the answer in a following lesson. It has been replaced by the Raytracing option and bloom has been “hidden” in there also. Lesson 1 introduction, 20. No replies needed.
