I can set mxi sky map vi sky object and Sky Map tag. I can map texture for sky but this mapping setting is not exported to mxs. I must edit in studio. Hope you understand my english...

.hi Mira.

.from Tyrones post:

.Skymap tag.

This tag only controls the intensity of the sky environment map, which must be an mxi file. This mxi texture file is assigned to a Cinema4D material tag which is applied to the Sky object and linked to the Skymap tag in its Texture Tag field. The mapping of channels of this tag to Maxwell is as follows:
# Color channel: background
# Luminance channel: illumination
# Transparency channel: refraction
# Reflection channel: reflection

.tried it and it works fine....but only after linking material tag to the texture tag field in Skymap tag.

same in Slovak:

Ahoj Mira...

takisto som mal problem s mapovanim oblohy....neviem ci to pomoze ale na Sky object musis aplikovat aj Skymap tag aj material oblohy... a potom ten texture tag natiahnut do policka texture tag field v skymap tagu.
.odkedy som vyskusal tento postup tak to funguje perfektne, bez nutnosti editovat v studiu.
.funguje len s hdri a mxi ale to urcite vies.
