I see discussion of this in the standalone manual, but not the plugin manual. And when I try to render with environment maps, they seem to be disregarded by the plugin. Is there a way to use environment maps in 3ds max and have them rendered by the plugin? How?

Did you set your environment map to 3ds max environment slot?
Did you switch off daylight?

"3ds Max environment slot" meaning Rendering>Environment...>Background Map and "Use Map" checked? Yes.

If not, could you be more specific. Thanks!
