My FAVORITE way to make a 3ds scene

[HoosierDaddy]

This tutorial, like the last one uses a HDR image. But this has a little bit of trickery and magic. Get ready for some awesome realism and possibilities with your own renders! I hope your excited, cause this is just REALLY REALLY COOL!

HERE is the HDR image needed for this tut! (Just throw it into your Tutorial Folder you downloaded from the previous tutorial!)

When I search for images on google what is the correct name I should use?

"HDR", "HDR 360", etc.

Better yet, how about some links?

EDIT: never mind the search words...

Better yet, how about some links?

Also, try HDR Panorama in Google Image search!

 

[HoosierDaddy]

ALSO! Here is a tip. If 3dsmax DOESN'T open the HDR image. Then open it in Photoshop and simply just save it. Now 3dsmax will open it!

Sorry, in Google. Don't try HDR...

Type this "HDRI Panorama"

Cool, thanks!

For some reason when i try to change the offset of my background image under the material editor nothing happens. It just dosen't move over any. Any fixes?

 

[DanielC]

[HoosierDaddy]

Hoosier, can you post this video somewhere since the link is broken? I am having some trouble with the hdri.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

I can't find the vid so I will make a new one with the source files. I'm gonna do this for all the tuts that are no longer working. K?

 

[wslates]

You don't have to remake it...it's fine. I'm not that desperate.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

Hell, I gotta anyway because I'm making my own website about all this stuff
