I just got P6 today. A worthwhile upgrade and I'm enjoying it. There are plenty of IBL light sets but I want the background to go with it. I've searched the manual but I can't get the background to cooperate. How do I load the IBL image I need for each IBL light set? Thanks in advance.

Since the backgoround and an IBL light source image are different orientations, you need to do a couple of things in order to get them working properly together. The above tutorial explains it.Creator of PoserPhysics

Poser 6 doesnt use the IBL image as background as Vue 5 does. To achieve this aim you can 1) take the Probe Light image (as the one shipped with Poser); 2) convert it in a Cubic Environment (Vertical cross) image using HDR Shop (menu: Image>Panorama>Panoramic Transformations) 3) crop the central square of the Vertical cross; 4) use the cropped image as background. I hope I was clear: English is not my language.
