Help with sky

Hi guys.

I'm quite new to Vray and have just downloaded 1.48.89.

I'm having trouble inserting a sky bitmap.
I've downloaded a panoramic sky photo and am trying to insert and render but i'm having no luck.

I've attached the settings and the render if someone could tell me where i'm going wrong I would really appreciate it!

I've used the same settings in the BG color as the GI color.

Turn up the multiplier for the HDRI map.

I usually find that I need higher mulitplier for the Background HDRI than the GI HDRI.
Also, when using HDRI for GI, it's best to use a small, blurred version of your background HDRI as that will reduce artifacts. GI HDRI can be much less than 512px.
