Title: HDR renders black/ wrong workflow?
Post by: rtomada on 2016-02-10, 12:50:38

I'm trying to render a scene lit by just one hdr image. I create a cinema sky object with a corona light shader in which I pop the hrd file. But the scene renders black even if I crank up the exposure (corona settings and hrd shader) to max. What am I doing wrong? I'm running the latest corona built (4.1) on cinema R 17.

Cheers
Raoul

load the HDR into the diffuse channel of a standard shader and apply that to the sky

That did the trick. Thanks.
