Re: Can Anyone explain how to use HDR

all you have to do is to use it as bitmap image on the environment slot. instead of the default sky environment. be sure to make the multiplier way way up high if you are using the camera or else you cant see it.

You will also need to change the mapping type from UVW to Environment (at the top left). Spherical is the default mapping type, which will most likely work for you, but you may need to choose another from the list (mirror ball is the next most common).
