V-ray bitmap to V-ray HDRI converter question

[DANIELE_CASAROLA]

hi!

I'm in trouble to understand the meaning of this new feature in 2.0: V-ray bitmap to V-ray HDRI converter (right mouse click on viewport).

I've understood that it converts all scene textures to hdri texture, but I don't understand the benefit...

Thank you very much.

It's for dynamic loading of the Textures into RAM

It only loads those parts of the texture it needs for rendering therfore saving RAM on very large textures
