SOLVED: How can I duplicate 3DO's lighting

Gordon Robb · Jan 2015

I would like to replicate 3DO's lighting in my render app (octane) so that I can work on what tweaks need to be made to the spec and roughness maps. I may then be able to write an export script (or whatever) for DDO.

So I'm guessing 3DO is using an HDRI to light it. Can I get access to that image and maybe it's settings being used.

Hope all that rambling makes sense.

Hi Gordon!

Most of the HDRI´s being used are available publicly online, is it anyone in particular that you want?

Oh, it would be great if you can tell what a default 3DO HDRI is. I was looking it but can't find exactly that one. Some times in free time try to make vray calibration preset. But you know how difficult to make same reflection and specular with different HDRI.

Would be great if you did this and make the script available.

I only use one. I assume it's a default as I've never changed it.

I'd be really interesting in having the exact HDR maps used by 3DO for testing in Arnold actually. Eric, could you link us to the page where we can download them? Or maybe put a downloadable pack of them in the DDO wiki page? That would help a lot!

Spend some time to search exact same HDRI like Eric say, and found a default one. It was made by Nikolaus Hoppenthaller. I hope it will help to make more calibration presets!

Can we get official confirmation that this is the one?

You can see it if you apply a high specular and gloss value on sphere and see it yourself $:\$

I can indeed confirm that is the one! The chosen one, he who will bring balance to our renders.
Avis Para I must comment you on your detective skills, sherlock himself would be proud!

Is there a plan at Quixel to allow user to feed a custom HDR map to 3do? That would be pretty amazing

Its something we´re looking in to for sure
