Quote - I agree, I like using the sun, but if i include a sky map of my own, the sky setting can wash it out if turned up to high.

You mean a IBL map? If so then you are simply overexposing the scene, it's not a matter of adding light types. You need to lower the contrast ratio between the lights and then set the exposure.

Cheers.
