Hi
I made a video showing how to combine the sun with the HDRI and I think this video can help you to understand how to use a HDRI on the BG color. The most common issue with an image on the BG color is that if you use the physical camera, this will reduce drastically the exposure (brightness) of your image. The solution is increase the multiplier of the image. Also you have to use UVWGenEnvironment as your mapping type. You can not use planar projection on the BG color. If you want to use a planer image it is better to make a plane surface on Sketchup and apply a material with the desired background image. Another workflow is apply the background image in post process using photoshop or any other photo editing software.
The problem with the lights could be the physical camera as well. Try to increase the multiplier of the light until you see the light effect.
Hi my friend thanks for your help..
I have a question..where I can increase multiper of image?in camera settings?if I increase it rendering time will increase,am I right?
I found that you uses two hdri image for bg color I cant found a day sky HDRI file can you help me how to find this files..I googled but I found only one HDRI and cant find blure HDRI

Outside the texture editor and between the BG color and the “M” you will find the multiplier.

Open the HDRI in photoshop, reduce the sice to 512 by 256 and add Gaussian Blur filter.

I usually use the physical camera parameters (Shutter Speed, F-Number or Film speed) to control the exposure of the sun, but if you want you can also reduce or increase the intensity of the sun inside the sun options.
I have another question…If i have many materials in my seance soes it effect on vray and causes it cant render?
Yes, corrupted materials or textures can cause that your render don’t start.
If you set the HDRI as the GI texture in the Environment render options, it will effect illumination. If you set the HDRI as the BG texture in the Environment render options, it will only effect reflections, not illumination.
thanks
I know found that I khow nothing about rendering

Hi Am2
Here is the old ASGVIS yotube channel with some video tutorials related to V-Ray for Sketchup
