I'm Using hdri image for my lighting setup. But i'm unable use it with skylight. I'm using .exr for the hdri. Is there anything that i'm missing?

Hello.

I’m using HDRI Image to light up my scene but whenever i try to use the hdri with skylight for specified cubemap, it doesn’t take the image. Is there any step that i need to follow for it. I have tried using .exr and TARGA for hdri and none is working. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have exactly the same problem. The only solution is to convert the EXR file to HDR…

It is because the hdri image has no cubemap info attached to it.Just open the hdri image with photoshop and save it again in the default format.Now you can easily select it as a cubemap in skylight properties.Also make sure that skylight is set to stationary.
