Is there a way to scale the HDRI environments beyond the slider? The domes are too small for some of my scenes.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out in the Twinmotion community. I apologize as the Backdrop HDRI scale will be limited to 500 meters at this time. As a potential alternative, please know that the HDRI Environments can also be used as Skydomes. When using an HDRI Environment as a Skydome, the lower half of the HDRI Environment can be rendered by enabling the Path Tracer.

If you would like to provide feedback to our development team regarding this, please use the +Submit Idea button on our Twinmotion Public Roadmap. Here, you can include feedback on how you would like this to be implemented and it's importance to you.

Best Regards,

Morgan

Thank you for responding. I have to say the update that just happened has some nice features, but very drastic in layout and hard to find things, will take some getting used to. YIKES! Thanks again.

Hi,

Absolutely, I've tested this again and am seeing that a workaround for this can be to type in a value instead of using the slider, as this will allow for a maximum value of 5000 meters.

While the new UI is very different and may take a bit to get used to, we do hope that it will ultimately make for an even better user experience. :)

We've released Twinmotion 2023.1 today (more info here!), and a new Twinmotion learning course is now available in the Dev Community that can help new and existing users gain familiarity with the new UI: Getting started with Twinmotion

Best Regards,

Thank you, I will try that work around. Understand on the UI, it was quirking to begin with and I finally knew it well and had to get something out and fired it up and it wanted to do an update, so I let it and that made me even shorter on time and then opened it up and things were completely different, I figured you are trying to get it more in line with Unreal and accommodate some new features. Keep up the great work and adding features, it is good for me to be fluid and adaptable! LOL

Hopefully new features include better animation pathing and I would love for vehicles to have headlights so that one could easily to night scenes! I already put my request in, thanks again for responding and all that you are doing.

Regards,

Russell
