Background colors and light, but no image using IBL

Support Lighting and Rendering
#1

I started learning about environmental textures, and it works great with my default scene, image and all.

I tried to put the same lighting into my model scene, and the color and light in the environment remained, but the image disappeared.

The settings in both scenes world settings are the same.

background
environment texture
vector: mapping
vector: texture coordinate: generated

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Tim

Never mind, I figured it out :slight_smile:

I toggled the ortho / perspective view, and there was the image.

Yes, for anyone else searching this topic, because of the way latlong and sphere images are calculated, they cannot work in orthographic view currently.

As George from Seinfeld would say: ‘Ah-HAA!’. Thanks, this was exactly the answer I needed.
