| Q: | What is "hdri locations" |
| A: | Hdri locations is a combination of one high resolution HDRi map and matching backplates to use as a background for your renderings. |
| Q: | The resolution is too big, what do I do? |
| A: | The resolution of the HDRi maps is 11500x5750 which obviously require a lot of memory, if your software can't handle it then you can always scale it down in software like HDRsoft or Photoshop CS2 and up. |
| Q: | What fileformat does all the files come in? |
| A: | The HDRi map comes as an .hdr file. The backplates comes as jpeg files saved at the lowest compression rate meaning the files is as close to lossless as possible. |
| Q: | When I import the HDRi map into max it looks like it's flipped? |
| A: | That is correct, I'm not sure why but you can fix it by setting the U tiling to -1. |
| Q: | The backplates seems a little flat. |
| A: | Only a small amount of post processing have been done to the files, the reason for this is the hdri files can't be overly processed and as the backplates has to fit the hdri map they can't be processed too much either. |
| Q: | What gamma is the HDRi maps? |
| A: | They are all 2.2 so if you're working with gamma 1 you have to compensate for that. With 3dsmax you can use ColorCorrect from Cuneyt Ozdas which you can find here. And then set the gamma to 0.45 (0.45 is equal to 1/2.2). |
| Q: | How is the files delivered? |
| A: | When you have bought something you will receive a mail with a login and password so you can download the files immediately. |
| Q: | Is it royalty free? |
| A: | Yes! When you bought it you can use it as many times as you want. For more details read the legal page which you can find here. |
| Q: | I'm from Europe so what about VAT? |
| A: | All the prices on this page already include 25% Danish VAT if applicable, so no extra amount will be charged. |
| Q: | Is there any tutorials available explaining how to use the HDRi locations? |
| A: | At this moment there isn't, but it might come in the future. |
