Loading HDRI doesn't work

I use to be able if I remember correctly to load in a HDRI within the imageTexture like so:
http://gyazo.com/ce4bffbe769a33e0af4e0bc9f1722c01
But it won't show up in my render and live viewer.

I could load them directly but then I have to blowup the power values like crazy or use a .jpg

What I'm missing here?

what do you see in capture? Have you tryed to load a file from hdd? Can you post your scene?

I just get a default light: http://gyazo.com/4533222693c18e1577ff6a233fc1e208

But when I was saving the scene to post, I did find a fix, saving the scene...

Could you check if you have the same bug(?), create a cube, a hdri sky > load in a .hdri and see if it renders (before saving).
Just wondering if it is only my c4d that bugging out.

not a bug. things are complex to explain much. octane loads the images by path. presets are copied to a accessible path. if you don't work on saved scene it cannot copy it to project's folders.
