Hi all,

is it possible to add a separate background plate to a scene lit with an HDR.

I've tried an image in the Sky Texture.

cheers,

Steve

If you mean like an image plane or the background image in the standalone then no I don't believe it is possible in the Maya plugin right now,

Cool, cheers. Thought I was doing something wrong.

I wonder what the sky texture slot is for?

That is so you can mix an HDRI with the sun light.
