Hi,

I want to apply a vrayHDRI map to a dome light via scripting. There seems to be no way to link a map from the dome light as an instance into a material slot

I dont even see how I can set the coordinates in the map parameters to Environ and the mapping to Spherical environment

Any ideas ?

Simples! I don’t usually set the coordinates mapping type, just the mapping type in the HDRI Mapping group works for me. but here i’ve done both.

-- create the map
vrHDRI = vrayHDRI maptype:2 
-- set coords to environ
vrHDRI.coords.mappingType = 1
-- set to sperical environment
vrHDRI.coords.mapping = 0
-- create the light
vl = VRayLight type:1 textmap_on:true texmap:vrHDRI
-- add the map the a material slot
meditmaterials[24] = vrHDRI
-- change the name, it's instanced just fine.
vrHDRI.name = "bumholes"

Love your style ! I hate pressing buttons
