Hey Veritas, funny isn't it, how people expect the new whiz bang technology they just got to do everything including making you a cup of tea, in about 3.7 seconds flat? Heh :) People who have never done hdri renders before are going to have to learn a lot of patience. Oh.....and by the way, you don't make an animation or a movie using hdri renders folks. Hollywood doesn't........they use all sorts of tricks and techniques. One day I'm sure, but sure as hell not now. Just enjoy what your technology can do and don't sweat it.
