Lesson 9 | V-Ray HDRI
You can use an HDRI map to light a scene with an environment :
CONCEPTS:
- Use V-Ray Light in “Dome” mode (units = default, don’t’ use watts!)
- Load the HDRI map in the V-Ray Light – Texture channel
- Increase multiplier to increase the light in the scene
- Use “horizontal rotation” to rotate the environment
EXERCISE:
Download this file and repeat the same procedure you watched in the video.
A sample hdri map is included in the pack
Note:
Hdri maps are for objects, cars, exteriors: everything has no cover on the top.
Hdri maps don’t affect interiors very much (useless for this case)
Always use GOOD and BIG hdri maps. Free HDRIs are usually low-quality maps
