HDR's for lights

[scrappydog1958]

1.) Are dome lights the only lights that require HDRs?
2.) Is there a library of HDRs supplied with V-Ray and if so, what's the path to find it?
3.) If I want to find suitable HDR's for my V-Ray dome lights, what are good sources? (are the ones on Food4Rhino okay to use?)

Thanks,

Hello,

1. Dome Lights can work with any image file type supported by Bitmap texture, although it is highly recommended to use quality .hdr or .exr files for best results.
2. V-Ray for Rhino currently ships only with a selection of preset materials. We do have plans on expanding the Asset library in the future.
3. Cannot promote any source for HDRIs. Perhaps other forum users can recommend you their preferred sites.

Kind regards,
Peter
