[cecil gittens]

I am using a HDRI image for my skylight. It is clear in the material editor, but blurry in the Vport and in the rendered image. ( i am using it for my envrionmental map) it is a sphereical Image and i have that checked in the material editor.

hehe yeah it looks good in the viewport becuase the viewport is tiny. Your now stretching that over the entire image and dont forget your only seeing a small part of the HDR in the render, hence its shit ness.

And yeah dont use HDR's as backgrounds they never look good. Make a JPG of the area you want and use that if you must. it might look better depending on size..etc..etc.
