That is not true. You do not need to tell me what is possible and what is not, as I have already done it. But you are confusing the other people.

you make me lough on this one, simple picture of a mirror ball is not complete 360 degree
there are missed points b/c the mirror ball don't reflect the part under the ball and low behind..
a mirror ball can't reflect it self while covering the place where it is especially in small scenes..or wrong focals of the camera or to close up so what you tell me that is not true.. convert a pic of a mirror ball to sphere map L/L and you will see what you miss this will be a mess..and how the positions changes.. only correct made panoramic picture can be converted to ideal Light probes that match it 1:1 and a mirror ball is good for a HDR diffuse Light probe but is not acurate 1:1 if talking about details, if you don't agree you just explain and tell your own version , your knowlegde in mat is briliant but this don't tell me much.. it seems you run on your own rules and everything else by others is a crap... the pro pple teach the users this way and how to make it right and you say it is not true...while don't even check out what I said..
