Hi all, its been a while since I have had the opportunity to play with MR. I was hoping to use the Sky HDRI sky '10 Big Sun' by Zhu. I downloaded it and located it in the both the Sky and Hdri floder in an attempt to load it but when I try to load it with the Sketchup plugin its not recognised, nothing shows in the folder(s) any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Instead I used a lens flare in PS. I was thinking of adding a sign or some other element to indicate wind; what else should I do to create the wind effect, particulates, turbidity... lastly, is there a Sketchup plugin manual with directions on how to make HDRI's etc....

CC welcomed, and thanks!http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3386/321 ... 8796_b.jpg

i haven used the new sky feature yet, but i dont think it recognizes .hdri images...only .sky files (i think thats the extension)... but putting it in hdri background should work? will just take alot of back and forth getting the scale/position right..
