Please help make use of "crop/place" in vrayHDRI

Latest V-ray 2.4 and Max2014

What am I doing wrong? I try using this feature, but it appears to make no difference whatsoever.

I am trying to crop away the annoying black half of an HDRI and no matter what setting I use for Crop/place, nothing seems affected.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have to check, but it should work for 3DS max standard mapping type only.

Actually it works for all mapping type modes in the RT but not in the regular render.
There is an issue in our system about this.

fix?

Oh, thanks…will this be fixed?
Best regards

Yes, it will be fixed at some point.

Hi,

Our developers managed to fix this V-Ray HDRI map issue and most probably the fix will be prat of the next 3.0 service pack.

Hi, that is good to hear! So, for folks on version 2, we are just SOL?
Thanks again :sunglasses:

I will check if it’s possible to add this fix to the 2.x nightly builds.

Thank you, I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
