Title: Double HDRI
Post by: redrig on 2015-06-15, 12:22:18

Hey is there any way to use double hdri in Corona, like you can in Vray with two dome lights (excluding/including different objects).
Thanks.

Corona does not support such aggressive hacks i am afraid, but each CoronaMTL has own environment slot, where you can assign separate HDRI, so that objects can reflect different environments on per-material basis. That will concern only reflections though, not diffuse lighting.

Maybe if you posted example of what exactly you need to achieve, i could come up with some more specific solution :)

Thanks for the reply, what i wanna achieve is to have different hdr reflections on the bottles and different on all the other objects of the scene.
What you suggested could work, imma try it

Yep, create new glass material, and in that material, there is Reflect BG override environment slot and Refract BG override environment slot. There you can have material-specific map for reflection and refraction :)
