Hi all

 can some one explan for me how to make a light dome in Carrara and export it inti Daz. I would like to make a dome that I can put a sky texture on so i will have a ski to use in my scenes. I have some good HDRI  sky textures that I can use.  if some one can tell me how to go about it or point me to a good tutoral on it. just remember you are talking to someone that is not all that good with Carrara. I have the newest version and I am working in win7.  

 

thanks for anyhelp that you can give me

Just add a Sphere, cut it in two (horizontal cut) and map the image in the top half sphere.

You cna also use a whole sphere with a texture maped.

Hi all

Mark or  can some one tell me how to make a ski dome that I can import over to Daz 4 to use in my scenes. I know how to make the dome but how the heck can I put a texture on the inside of the thing. and can or should I use a HDRI Texture to do it and I guess the next question is will carrara let me use a HDRI texture. Or even better yet does anyone know of a good tutorial on making one.  I have ask before but I  was mixed up I want to make a ski dome to use for my scenes but instead ask for a lite dome. I can use LDP2 for that. 

 

thanks in advance woody2
