    Hi you all, almost all my previous images have only artificial lights,because I didn't know how to add hdr light to the image. I used sketchup sun, but I don't like the shadow created in my scene. I am just looking for the bright outdoor light that cast no shadow.see attached image please.

    Thanks you all. I want to take my images to next level. 😍


    how to create this light in vray sketchup.

      You dont have to always use the V-Ray Sun. Try using a dome light with an HDRI or even simpler, just set a white/blu color to your GI instead of the TexSky.

        great thanks, valerostudio. I tried the simple method. it works pretty good. I am just having difficulty finding the right hdri image for the indoor scene above. do i have to find a hdri image that is shot at tall building. my indoor scenes are usually high rise apartment building. or I can just get a normal blue sky hdr image? thanks for the help.

          I added a dome light, but there are many noises in the scene. what settings should i change? thanks.

          ALSO increase the subdiv to 32. the noise is gone. but the yellow patch noise behind the cabinet is weird. does someone know why it's there?


          many noises in the pic.


          yellow patch noise. why

            That looks like low sampling of Irradiance Map. Put higher values (go from 50/20 to something like 80/40)
