Oh I forgot to mention. If you use my EnvSphere, there is no point in using an IBL. The virtual IBL sphere is bigger (infinite) and so the light will come from the EnvSphere, which completely encloses your scene.

With IDL, the lighting from the EnvSphere is automatically correct and matches the scenery you load into it. Further, in the enclosed room above, the EnvSphere only provides light that can be seen through the windows. The room blocks the rest of it.


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
