  • Hemispherical environment (locked position) for animations

    The VRayHDRI map has the Ground projection option works great for still images. However, it doesn't work for animations where you want to just use the HDR/EXR for the environment and rotate around an object within that environment (unless I'm doing something wrong). The Ground projection option doesn't seem to lock the position of the HDR/EXR for animations.

    I do realize it can be done with actual geometry (squished spheres/cylinders/etc.) however that also includes extra steps to deal with shadows, lighting, texture scale, and reflections. I'd much rather have a simple approach like what is used in VRed/IRay/Keyshot. For reference & clarity, I'm referring to something like this:

    Is there a chance to get something like this incorporated into VRay in the near future or maybe it's already there and I'm overlooking it?

    Thanks!
