Loading HDRI image into my File and Not showing up in background

Support Lighting and Rendering
1

Hi Guys,

I am stuck. I just downloaded a HDRI image to add to my Car image. It won’t show up for some reason. I can get it to show threw one of the windows of the car and the reflections in the car. but it won’t appear in the bg. It works in a new file with a metallic ball. The Blender file was not created by me as I purchased the Car model, so I am thinking there is a setting somewhere that is preventing it from displaying and rendering…

Instead of using ‘Image Texture’ try using ‘Environmental Texture’, its under the “add->texture” menu also, should do the trick.

Not it sorry, it was added as an environment Texture. Just double checked be redoing the node, same thing unfortunately…

Ha ha just solved my own mystery by turning things off and on. Camera was not checked in the “Ray Visibility” menu in the World panel…

Thanks,
