Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to use HDRI maps with max 4 and brazil. I've followed the steps shown at splutterfish.com on how to set up your scene and this is what i end up with !! :hmm:

Does anybody now what i am doing wrong????

Ok, i'm using max 4 and the last version of brazil 0.4.53. I loaded the kitchen.hdr as spherical environment map. I did this render with the default settings of brazil. I have tryed to do it with the scene they give in the tutorial and i end up with similar renders. I do not understand why it has all the pink in it! It's from the white point of the map? I tryed different settings for the white point and nothing changes!

Thnks alot!!
Anton

To get rid of the whacky colours there, tilt the scene ever-so slightly so it's not perfectly flat in world space. This is a known quirk with the public test, it's been fixed for a while in the final version. It also looks like you're undersampling pretty bad, might want to up your view rate/sec rate values.

I have tilted it but it still looks the same! And about the undersmapling you are right.

Thanks!

did you tilt the camera or the actual objects? I was referring to the objects. Bad clarification on my part. :)
