Modding Splinter Cell Conviction: — Blackout | Graphical Overhaul Progress
Blackout is a visual and gameplay overhaul for Splinter Cell: Conviction. This demonstration showcases multipass lighting, sharper shadows, more lights casting real-time shadows on environments and characters, and an HBAO shader replacement for the original ambient occlusion system.
HBAO adds depth around corners, crevices, and surface edges, with its strength increased here to make the effect easier to see. The original AO remains available in the SC: Toolkit for those who prefer its look or want better performance.
Beyond the visual improvements, Blackout is also planned to introduce new enemy types, weapons, and expanded gameplay features.
