Vray HRDI missing in material/map editor

[Dor Markovitz]

hi all,

I'm using 3dsmax 2021 and Vray 5.00.05

I've added a Vray dome light to my scene, and wish to add Vray HDRI to it - when I try to add it through  the texture section in the modify tab, the Vray HDRI doesn't appear there under maps at all...

can't seem to find it via all other options of adding texture & maps...

please help!!

thx

I think the best way around this is to load your HDRI map to material editor, and then drag it to your V-Ray dome light texture section and copy it there as an instance. That way you can work on your HDRI map in material editor and it will automatically be applied to your dome light.
