How to Use HDRI Lighting in Maya

Your channel saved me ❤

OOOooooh, thx very much! I love it

Thank you great tutorial. Is there a way to blur in the parameters a bit the hdri image so the reflection is less sharp?

yo thanks a lot for your insight it has really been helpful

So you change a shading propery (diffuse, specularity) on a hdri dome attribute. And this is good .. Logical right? and not changing at the shading property of the object....

As someone who is trying to reteach himself everything from scratch and push into the games industry, this tutorial is stupidly handy, you've explained how to use HDR effectively and quickly, thank you so much for making this!!!

hey monica i have a question can we adjust the bluriness of the background?

Top, thanks!

is it possible to export HDRI as an object like fbx?

Your tutorials are saving me in my job. Well-explained, and detailed to boot. Thank you very much!

Hey how can I disable the background image in the render? maya 2020.4

"Tears of steel bridge" that sounds really depressing :D

the 4th ball is not pink. I'd expect an artist to know at least some popular colors.

thank you!

Does it matter if use a 4k HDR

god bless you

You can set the default color space for exr files in Settings -> Color Management

your tutorials literally save my skin every quarter! thank you for your hard work in making these!

Is it possible to have atmosphere volume with hdri skydome?

thanks

Sorry for the late question but, in which Arnold lightning can we add HDRI?

Guys what is the difference between exr and hdri

Everytime I import an HDRI and follow these settings my HDRI still renders as a blur. Why is this?

Tears of Steel ! That does sound depressing! lol! Youre awesome!

so easy to understand! love this

Great lesson! It was really useful, thank you.

This really helped me!!! thanks!!!

As always you save my day, thank you lady 🤗

I don't have the green tint on the last one like you do. All of the others looked exactly the same. Is there a setting or two I may have accidentally changed?

Thanks a million! Another video used Phong which didn't act the same as StandardSurface, which is why I couldn't get that glassy effect.

hey, thank you.

Thank you for such amazing Tutorials!

how do you add your own background after turing the camera visibiity off?

The old part of town in Shanghai was a German trading outpost and the main street is called The Bund.!

I love you

Amazing! helped a lot

that's very helpful for me,thak u Monica!~

Hi Monica, I'm trying to use a shadow matt instead of a regular plane for compositing but when I turn the visibility of the skydome off, specular reflections in chrome sphere turn black, taking only shadows from the plane(shadow matt). Would you happen to know a solution that will let me turn the visibility of the skydome light off and have the reflections in the sphere at the same time?

Great tutorial. This really helped. Thank you.

Why doesn't your glass ball have any shadows?

Your tutorials are always awesome! <3 Subscribe to you!

Thx

The Shanghai Bund is a historic, 1500 meter long waterside promenade showcasing distinctive modern & colonial buildings. That's where that HDRI map is made.

Really nice Video, but i have some question , i need to export object after rendering with alpha channel, i mean object have transparency to see thro it, after i made search, it can with exr and tif format but i can't get the result

Thank youuuuuuuuu!!!

I have some tips to share. Firstly to remove reflections, or anything else (question below) you can use the render setup window, create a collection, and then a AOV. You can then exclude anything you want. Second, you can shift the horizon vertically (in maya you can only rotate the HDRI) by opening the HDRI in photoshop, moving the image down (or up, you only need to move it a tiny amount to get a noticable shift) then box select a portion of the top (or bottom, wherever you have made a gap) free transform and stretch to fill. Save it out as a new HDRI and voilla. Now your horizon line is where you want it. Very useful if you are looking out the window of a 2nd storey building, or something. x

Nice

Wow thanks for this tutorial...my scene looks 10 times better.
