"BTW- I use HDR a lot for lighting cars and general architectual scenes. I'm surprised more people don't use HDR as it renders very nicely in Vue..." True; nice looking renders, but I think it is more a matter of taste than accuracy...as, for me, Vue's GI and GR don't look physically accurate a lot of the time. The VW Golf image you posted above Veritas is an example where I can see unrealistic lighting effects. Now, I'm not sure if this is because of the renderer or because the settings for GI or GR don't allow a user enough control for the lighting. Hmmmm, I've actually re-thought my last comment...I also notice that too many settings can affect another setting by a great amount within the options for GI and GR also...in my experience that can lead to a lot of trial and error or luck needed to get accurate results. Cheers
