i have download the plugin in highend3d,but i dont know how to illumination the object using a hdr image or a environment map ,
i read the readme file, it is said that
What it does:
The diffuse illumination of a HDR-image or an environment map can be represented
by 27 coefficients, so no extra lights are needed. Those 27 coefficients provide
a diffuse environment map which is mapped on the objects in a special way.

i don`t understand what is ur problem, but when u install the plugin a new shader will be available in hypershade default shaders list. all u need to do is to create a new RFGI shader and apply it to ur obj (p.s. this is the most simple procedure)

good luck
