Depending on the intention of the artist. Virtual cameras can determine light values via pixels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a 3d scene with ready setup. Try applying an HDRI from the same environment. This can be very helpful in real-time screen space reflections, since the sky sphere texture is the primary reflection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the easiest programs to do this is <strong>SimLab Composer<\/strong>. The image is below is a rendered HDRI from the same program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/vrforcad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Elevator-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Elevator-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Elevator-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Elevator-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Elevator-480x240.jpg 480w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Elevator-950x475.jpg 950w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>First step in creating you own HDRI is importing the model into your SimLab composer by pressing <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ctrl + I<\/span> . Then you need to create a VR camera from the <strong>360 Image<\/strong> tab in <strong>Virtual Reality<\/strong> mode. Make sure to setup your environment&#8217;s lighting settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/vrforcad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Creat-VR-Camera-1-1024x495.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-719\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Creat-VR-Camera-1-1024x495.png 1024w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Creat-VR-Camera-1-300x145.png 300w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Creat-VR-Camera-1-768x371.png 768w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Creat-VR-Camera-1-950x459.png 950w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Creat-VR-Camera-1.png 1410w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then from the same menu, select <strong>Output Settings<\/strong>.

The render production might take some time; depending on the settings, amount of textures, polygons and light bounces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, when your image is ready. Press anywhere on the view port and select <strong>Capture Image<\/strong>. Then select the image extension you want to save with; in this case it&#8217;s <strong>.hdr<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use this 32-bit image like any other hdr file, if you have any questions or have problems creating your own HDRI, I am glad to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/vrforcad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall-1024x512.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-709\" srcset=\"https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall-1024x512.png 1024w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall-480x240.png 480w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall-950x475.png 950w, https:\/\/simlab-soft.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Mall.png 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The idea of creating an HDRI can help a lot in lighting a scene with an exact color mood.
