How to map HDRi's

[ockelford]

Dear Andrey,

What is the correct way to map an HDRi, when it's the only top half of the 'world'.

I have some which are the sky only, and I'm not sure how to get the mapping right.

Cheers,

Rob.

Wait - it works, use image or movie > Mapping ? Environmment > Sphere.

Don't know why it wasn't working before?!!

Anyway, one thing I have noticed - the Environment>slider doesn't affect brightsness, but Common? Mult works for this. Is that normal? R

OK - worked it out - sorry to waste your time, it was to do with gamma setting / srgb where it should have been linear - ignore me! (Can I remove these posts?)
